Nice! That stand though...

I wonder how well it with perform (input lag, response time, etc).
Other than that, it looks good!

Lenovo Legion Y27gq is available in April 2019 for $999.99 USD
dat price...
"datasheet" https://forums.lenovo.com/lnv/attachmen ... 121918.pdf
It has "NVIDIA® G-SYNC™ R3". What does R3 mean?
Response time: Extreme 0.5ms (with OD), 3ms (without OD).
Questions:
Is 3ms without overdrive ok or superior?
Is advertised 90% DCI-P3 color gamut better than other 144/240hz TN monitors have? Those are on market (on sale) ofc.

3ms without OD is very good. "1ms" TN's today are actually ~5ms without OD.

Amazing. Hopefully this makes 1080p cheaper.

Does anyone know / can anyone find out if it supports ULMB at 240hz?

Or will running ULMB force us to drop the refresh rate to 144hz?

Hopefully we'll see 1440p 240 hz 0.5 ms from more manufacturers this year. This is awesome.

Release 3.

Also, obligatory mention: BlurBusters.com coverpage post of 1440p 240Hz (posted Jan 8, 2019)

And I saw it in person, tweet. Motion looked super-clean, the (very little) motion blur looked linear with no asymmetry/ghosting/coronas I could see in the game that it was running. This is certainly next-generation 240Hz. For 1440p-haters, I'd even try it at 1080p scaled thanks to the panel's apparent superclean motion. From what I briefly saw, this panel is clearly next-generation 240Hz quality.
