Bro's (and Bro'ettes if you exist here) I've decided I'm getting the MSI ! Going for it. Now the search to find one in this sea of "out of stock" and "back ordered" monitor climate.

That said, I want to thank you all for your input, help and knowledge on this subject. I've learned a lot in the short time I've been here. This is a great place for help.

Thanks again to all !!

I am purposely waiting to time it out so the monitor gets here when I have my computer rig to test it out. This is due to wanting the ability to quickly return it if necessary (panel lottery game). And my computer isn't ready for about another 2 weeks, due to delays in getting some parts.

I don't want the monitor to arrive and just sit here. That said, I am about to order one in a few days regardless. I was thinking waiting a touch would also let the world catch back up.

I will keep you posted. Hope things work well for you too.

(UNLESS !!! I might start another thread about this, can I test it without a computer that does 240hz ?)

Thanks ! Yea I do too. But at this point of research, I seriously don't think I have any other option. lol.

That said, I did start a new thread on the "how to test it" subject if you or anyone else here got any help with that, that'd be great.. link is here: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=6854&p=51031#p51031

Most def keep you posted on my reviews though too

Where you at ? Here (USA) I have noticed a few places have the monitor now on a hit and miss basis per hour. Gotta keep checking. You will find one eventually that says "in stock". Literally changes per hour day to day.

Im from germany though, some websites offer it already but with a delay up to 3 months. Oh well i might just try the Alienware regardless ... i sell Running and Sportshoes and sometimes the lower priced shoe fits your style better than what "should" be better quality. I feel like reading too much into this gets me too confused. 0,x faster than xy with a bit more Strobe etc etc ... these can be necessary infos but some customer including myself just want smth that is around where i want to be and if it hits a personal sweet spot it could be any monitor out of the "big 3" and without the "next to each other" comparison and those 500€ testings i doubt we would exactly critisize whats in theory worse since we havent experienced it. Which is perfectly fine, no monitor is perfect.
