Link clearly says: "Maximum Resolution: 4K @ 30 Hz (note: at present time no chipset supports 60Hz)" ...

Google "ROG Swift quality control" and you get results like the following: http://www.amazon.com/PG278Q-27-Inch-Screen-LED-Lit-Monitor/product-reviews/B00MSOND8C http://forums.hardwarezone.com.sg/asus-ecustomer-service-center-336/rog-swift-pg278q-quality-control-4868218.html...

Cooool! I know comparing both screens' ULMB modes at 100Hz is "apples to apples" but it's worth pointing out that the Swift supports ULMB at 120Hz (and gives even better blur reduction at that refresh rate, as shown in the pursuit camera shot that's NOT embedded above).

What do you mean? I watch Netflix on Firefox all the time without issue...are you talking solely about whether it works on a 21:9 monitor?

Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought pcmonitors.info was basically one guy: Adam Simmons aka PCM2 from Overclockers UK. So unless I'm wrong about that, please stop referring to that (very nice) website as "they"

Already discussed in the other thread...but boom indeed. Glowing review

Lol, I can literally picture your mind ticking over, justifying this next purchase :)

I personally agree, though not everyone is as bothered by TN viewing angles as you or I. If looking to buy 3 screens instead of 1, the Acer is clearly better than the Asus.

Agreed, though I believe the Acer also has better input lag measurements. Glad to hear that you still have the Forises. This means that you can do a comparison with your Acer before (potentially) selling them :)

It's a result of Overdrive. As refresh rate up, Overdrive becomes more 'aggressive' even within the same 'normal' or 'extreme' setting:

I'm yet to see any solid evidence that AU Optronics makes any panels for LG. A sentence on Wikipedia without a source is gives me literally 0 confidence. There are a few scattered statements on Google suggesting that AU Optronics once made 'some' panels for LG, but that this was literally...

Ok, so that says No citation. It also doesn't say what proportion of LG's panels are made by AU Optronics, not even if said panels are IPS panels or something else. Got something we can actually verify?

Demand for responsive IPS panels has been steadily growing, but remains something of a niche market. Throughout the past 10+ years, LG has been raking in quite a decent amount from its conventional IPS tech. As for the future...well, LG is one of the OLED panel manufacturers :)

Eh? LG doesn't make their own IPS panels? That's the first I've ever heard of it. Can you please elaborate? According to this page: .

...you're right. I clearly need more coffee
