- is what i hear from marketing robots.

NA NA NA. This is the WORST time to be a pc gamer ever...

I would have been happy with my 21:9 ips if they kept theit holes shut untill they had real products.

Now with all these gsync demos and after my realization what gsync actually is - they have shit all over my gaming xp and ive been miserable the last 8 months.

Ive become so obsessive with gsync that i havent been able to enjoy anything on my computer.

End of 2114 when we have 120hz oled gsync monitors @ high res is gona be a "GOOD TIME TO BE PC GAMERZ"... not now.

Not to mention all the comming gsync screens are shitty 1080p tns. Except 1.
Also the asus rog swift will ship in small volumes at first to reek in some serious PROFITS. I keep bumping into this now when i look around the web.
So if u dont want to pay 1k$ for it expect to wait till the end of the year.
This might be bullshit, but wouldnt surprise me tbh.

In the past, they were selling black and white TVs for years, even though they already had cheap color technology. But that wouldn't maximize profits. Sell more current stuff now, and hold back on the better stuff so that people will buy the current stuff *and* later buy again to upgrade to the better stuff.

It's how business works. Maximizing profits down to the last cent is the most important aspect of business. Deal with it :-)
