TFT Central have the 27" version in for review, so expect to see some related info in about 2 weeks.

If you're getting it for ELMB Sync or HDR, don't. Use backlight strobing with a fixed refresh rate.

280Hz strobed means less ceosstalk at 240/200Hz.

Hopefully so, but still, do not use ELMB Sync.

At present, its solve for keeping the brightness equal while running adaptive sync is to start off with a standard pulse time, then a PWM flicker, and then increasing the times it flickers as you go lower and lower, creating the effect of multiple strobes per monitor refresh.

Here's how that looks:

Combine that with how poorly they've implemented strobing on all of these ELMB models (and you can see how that looks in the above review), you would want to wait for a review that tackles it properly before making a decision, and to be honest, that's something I've not seen TFTCentral do a lot of before, nor do they typically offer video footage these days.

What a new format review. Very decent! I hope he will add test some 240hz TN model. The more the best :)

So I've ordered one, it will be interesting to see how it performs and the TFTcentral review of the 27" version coming soon will also be interesting.
