Lenovo Debuts First PC Monitor with AMD FreeSync Technology
AMD today announced the new Lenovo Y27f Curved Gaming Monitor (hey this is posted like that on the AMD website). This would be their first free-standing display incorporating AMD FreeSync technology, offering low input latency and an ultra-smooth, stutter free gaming and multimedia experience. With 27-inch-wide “most extreme curve available today,”.
AMD FreeSync technology helps ensure smooth and fluid gameplay. AMD FreeSync technology enhances communication between the Lenovo Y27f Curved Gaming Monitor and an AMD FreeSync-capable GPU, allowing the display to dynamically adapt its refresh rate in alignment with the GPU’s creation of new frames. This prevents tearing by ensuring no new frames are drawn during the refresh period. FreeSync also eliminates stuttering, since the refresh rate is locked to the creation of new frames. FreeSync is supported on a wide range of AMD Radeon™ GPUs, including the recently launched Polaris architecture-based Radeon™ RX Series graphics cards.
“Our latest monitor, the Lenovo Y27f Curved Gaming Monitor, is optimized for gaming,” said Li Jun Su, Executive Director and General Manager of Visuals BU, PC & Smart Device Business Group, Lenovo. “AMD FreeSync technology along with a fast 144 Hz refresh rate eliminates screen tearing, and minimizes display stutter, input lag and motion blur to display more natural movement. Combined with full high definition 1920 x 1080 resolution and the most extreme curved display to date, the monitor provides our customers with the smoothest possible gaming and a great experience.”
“With AMD FreeSync technology, the new Lenovo Y27f provides truly immersive gaming,” said Raja Koduri, senior vice president and chief architect, Radeon Technologies Group. “The monitor is an excellent choice for both casual and competitive gamers that depend on low latency, high framerates, and an ultra-smooth experience powered by AMD FreeSync technology.”
The Lenovo™ Y27f Curved Gaming Monitor is available now starting at SEP $399 USD.3 For more information visitwww.lenovo.com.

Necroing a thread, by a whole year, to try and tell someone they are wrong, is no reason.
Looking at old threads/reviews isn't a reason to necro a thread, if you have a question or new information that wasn't available then, sure, but that's not what you did. You came to correct someone.....a year later....
Why was here I here looking for some review on Lenovo Y27f so your wrong I did necro the thread for no reason and beside holler is wrong and other one he ref to is Sony GDM-FW900 and there the HP A7217A which is a rebadged of the above Sony both cost $2.5k plus s/h and both didn't exist in the main steam consumer market.

Never heard of lenovo monitors.
Price is nice, as expected from lenovo. I wonder about panel quality.
edit: Not sure about 27inch for 1080p resolution, image probably gonna be choppy.
Watching quite a few of them daily in work. While those things are TN (not great to look at), they have extremely low defect rate when I take into consideration that some of them run 24/7.
27" 1080p indeed is on high side. Pixels are quite large there.
Edit: And Yes. Dead thread. So, how is this screen doing? Have not seen it around.
Edit2: Looks like screen is not available in my country. So probably DoA.

And their laptops are stellar,the Xseries are the most reliable laptops second to none.
Lenovo laptops are horrible. They're the only laptops I've ever dealt with that actually have a hardware whitelist that includes RAM and harddrives.... Hell, they're the only computers I've dealt with outside of Dell that even use a hardware whitelist. Then when contacting Lenovo support, they claim the hardware whitelists exists because the US FCC requires it....lol The FCC has nothing to do with PC RAM or harddrives. The FCC doesn't even require a whitelist for wifi cards in laptops.

Not quite a year. The thread started in August 2016. It's only May...
