Re: Acer XB273U GX (270Hz 1440p IPS) review
Mine also has a September MFR date & I while I don't have dead pixels or the retention issue, I either have some blb or "ips glow". Not enough to make me want to return it as given the monitor is 27" and I'm sitting fairly close while playing fps games, I'm not sure if it's one or the other and it ...

Re: Looking for: best 27" 240hz+ counter-strike monitor
Hi, thank you both for your reply. I play 1.6 (hence stuckin2003 :)) mainly on 27" 640x480 black bars on my OMEN 27i. Like I said, on the extreme setting I can get it close to feeling like my VG248QE but it has motion issues from time to time. I completely agree with you sk1p, something about the V...

Re: Looking for: best 27" 240hz+ counter-strike monitor
The only thing about the Omen x 27 is that it doesn't appear to have a black equalizer or any new cool motion features. The price tag is ~$625 USD which is quite a lot. I've also seen conflicting VESA info. I think I am asking for too much since I don't want to be on the bleeding edge and am startin...

Re: Looking for: best 27" 240hz+ counter-strike monitor
Just to provide another update to above 1/10 update: it seems the monitor has 'warmed up' to the fastest overdrive setting. While it's not ideal, I wouldn't call it unusable like I initially would have. I am weighing several options for a new monitor, but am finally in a spot where I am pleased w/ t...

Re: Acer XB273U GX (270Hz 1440p IPS) review
I chatted with Best Buy this morning and they had no information on it. After going through 2 people they recommended I call the corporate office which would likely get me nowhere since the corporate page says to go where I just left :) considering the 3 hour round trip to micro center but would be ...

Background: -I've been playing counter-strike for almost 20 years and am extremely sensitive to performance -I had the ASUS vg248qe 1ms/144hz and was happy with it -When COVID hit, and I was to work remote, I decided to upgrade to 1440p and went with the HP OMEN 27i along with another 27" 1440p IPS ...
