Re: flood's input lag measurements

I love how this thread started with content I could understand, and slowly evolved into me feeling like a retard.

You guys are awesome. Sorry I have nothing constructive to add.

Re: Acer Predator XR341CK 34" 144Hz Curved Gaming Screen wit

What you just said... wow... its ... really ignorant. If you can spend 700$ on a monitor you can also spend 750$. And that would be the absolute MAX cost difference between your 8bit TN and IPS nowadays. And i dont want the perfect monitor to be spoiled because SOMEONE is buying a monitor they cant...

Re: Acer Predator XR341CK 34" 144Hz Curved Gaming Screen wit

Really hard for me to believe they would put TN on this. But ok, ill agree that there is a small chance as its not said to be IPS. But most importantly ill do the hardest thing of all - ill just say that i dont know. And neither does anyone else... it might as well be OLED. I'd like to see this thi...

Re: Acer Predator XR341CK 34" 144Hz Curved Gaming Screen wit

really hope this gets ULMB too, just like that other 16:9 144hz acer IPS which is first with ULMB while not usable at the same time as gsync, having this feature on a huge 21:9 144hz IPS... well, that would certainly be something to play around with for older games Wait, this is a 34" IPS? I though...

Re: Acer Predator XR341CK 34" 144Hz Curved Gaming Screen wit

All i can say with some certainty is that the freesync version will cost 200$ less than the gsync one. Unless nvidia manages to use the gsync module to combine variable refresh and lightboost, i dont really see it surviving past 2015. See, GSync works on DisplayPort 1.2, whereas FreeSync wont, so I...

Re: Should I get the BenQ XL2420G or wait for the Acer XB270

There are no 21:9 Gsync monitors out. The first should be the Acer XR341CK. That's a 34" 144hz (probably an 8-bit TN) and curved 3440x1440 21:9.

I'm going to wait for that monitor to come out before I buy anything other than my VG248QE.

Likely wont be $800 though. I'm thinking more like $1200-1500.

Re: Acer announces 144hz IPS 1440p G-SYNC! [XB270HU, XG270HU

In most new games, there is so much engine based stuttering that GSync cant smooth out..... Really frustrating. I actually only run into this rarely lately. There are only a few games that I absolutely could not fix such as Divinity 2 and Shadow Warrior. I suspect it's a very different situation wi...

Re: Acer announces 144hz IPS 1440p G-SYNC! [XB270HU, XG270HU

well it depends on the game and what the person is used to obviously. for me ~80 is around the boundary value Oh sure. Around 75ish is about where I NOTICE, but that's not where I pause my game and start messing with settings to get more frames. That happens around 50fps and is very tolerable at pr...
