27" at 1920 x 1080? Who buys that crap?

27" at 1920 x 1080? Who buys that crap?

I do, 1080P at 27 inches doesn't bother me very much, but that's not to say I don't prefer 1440P or 4k.

Cool now I have heard from someone who uses one! My point was at 1080 27" panels appear so pixelated to me. I am spoiled by my 1440 IPS panels.

After going from 1080P to 1440P, it is night and day difference, I will never go back. I've used a 1080p 120Hz screen and yes it's nice but the lower Res is painful. I have a 27 inch Dell at 1440p and a 290X, example of Skyrim modded to look amazing, runs at 40 fps, when it gets up to 60 fps, it feels ultra smooth, almost too smooth. so 120 fps would be wasted graphics power. "oh but what about FPS games" I hear you say. 60fps BF4 is awesome. What needs to happen is gaming 1440p monitors at 60Hz with low input lag and good color reproduction. Omg, color makes a huge difference but that's another story

potential technological difficulties aside, as a gamer it is difficult to achieve 140 fps minimum to satisfy the 140hz monitor without sacrificing resolution. Anything above 1080p would be too difficult for the majority of gamers to achieve 140+ fps on a modern game.

Where is the g-sync???

Where is the g-sync???

That's what I'm talking about. We're supposed to be seeing 2560x1440 monitors with G-sync by now. A fast response/fast refresh monitor in a 1080p package is something we've been looking at for the last 5+ years. There's really nothing new here. And BenQ wants $530 for 27" old news? That's silly. And $499 for the 24"???

Q2 is when we were supposed to see G-sync monitors at 2560x1440. Where are they, monitor manufacturers?

"conQuer" ? Seriously?? Was this publicity bit written by an 8 year old child?

I went in to a store and looked an a 27" 1080 Asus monitor and thought it looked amazing. Not following the folks that talk about pixellation or screen door. It's good to have bad eyes I guess since I can buy cheaper monitors and not have to run SLI to drive a 1440+ monitor...

No G-synch, no 1440p. This is not even newsworthy.
