Is this monitor available in the UK? for the price point - this looks to be the monitor for me, but I don't see any news of its release.
Does anybody have any insight into this?

Just spoke with newegg. They should be getting a shipment of 240 units on Saturday and they currently have 208 preorders.

Any news on real world tests of this monitor or the 4k version of this monitor (XB270H)?
I hear a lot of negative reviews on the RoG Swift monitor. I've heard a lot seem to have dead pixels and a few have died already from being pushed so hard.
I assume since these 1080p monitors have been pushed past 240Hz that these should be reliable in that aspect. But not sure on the G-Sync of these 1Hz monitors.
I want to pre-order so bad, but I've been bit too many times in the past.

I sucked it up and re-preordered this monitor.
It's supposed to be released tomorrow, but mine was shipped today.
Once I receive it and give it a test, I'll let you guys know what I think.
I've already tried out the ROG swift so I can compare the two.

In my 2 hours of testing. It seems to be working very well. The colors are great for a TN (even without calibration and even at 144hz).
The only issue I'm having right now is ULMB. It dims the brightness a little too much for my liking and I'm not sure if you can adjust the strobe lengths.
I had one issue with motion in BF4 where it would have some sever ghosting, but after reloading the game - it went away.
Obviously the ROG swift has a crisper image due to the 1440p. But I got 4 dead pixels on my ROG swift and 0 dead pixels on my Acer.

Hello guys. New to the forum here. Signed up because I am also interested in getting the Acer GSYNC 27 display since it seems to be the best bang for your buck out there. I have not been able to find a lot of info out there about it. I did find a vide today of an unboxing on youtube:

Seems pretty sweet. I'm gonna wait to see what this guy reports back!
