If they can manage 1ms gsync, I will definitely be getting one of these!

This could be a good monitor. I HATE bad black levels.

The Acer Predator 144hz IPS I have now is awesome, with only one negative I've found. That being dark scenes, its just hard to make things out at times, seems a little too dark. I didn't really have this issue with the Asus rog swift.
How are AMVA blacks? Similar to the panel in the Predator? :3eyes:

For those that dont know AU Optronics makes the 144hz displays for Asus, BenQ and others.

In terms of pure static contrast ratio (the only contrast ratio spec that actually matters),
all AMVA panels >>>>>>>>>>> TN > IPS
Black levels on AMVA are far far superior and much darker than all IPS panels and yet are still close to them in terms of color accuracy and off-axis viewing angle quality, which is why people want to see 144hz Gsync versions of them so badly.

IPS blacks and TN blacks are VERY close. Read that as they are really, really bad compared to VA and are simply not good enough compared.

OK thanks, so how do TN, AMVA compare? There must be an average/mean comparison.
If a TN/AMVA panel says 1ms. What's the maximum possible latency in gaming?
No, just want lowest possible latency for rFactor2

After 22 years of using CRT's my eyes are just fine, working/gaming 8h+ every day,no glasses :infinity:
From looking at my friends lcd for 5min my eyes are in tears and not only from bad picture quality 🙂
I think they are undead, mine is still kicking at 3.5 years always on and 9 total, sharp as knife, Diamondtron FTW ;D

The PB278Q has been using an AUO AMVA panel since being updated. Of course it has a standard refresh rate but the image quality is quite good for the price.

Good to know, can't wait for those non-wacky resolutions like 16:9 2k and 4k though! 🙂

What's wrong with flicker free?
sverek
Maybe what's wrong without it?
HonoredShadow
That is not much of an answer but ok.
HonoredShadow
Same here. Had monitors I could not look at for long. Monitor I have now is much better

I personally hated the AU Optronics panel in the ROG Swift, but they redeemed themselves with the Predator. AMVA panel contrast is incredible so hopefully they can get some low latency QHD ones. I don't really care for curved monitors or oddball resolutions.

I mean that's definitely fine. I like having options, I just want the tech to hit traditional desktop screens as well.

Nope. TN suffers more, see for yourself.

TN is all bland and no contrast and weak dark images. IPS is no s-pva or MVA, but its a lot better then TN.

Highly unlikely your information is correct.
TN panels are terrible, and the only thing they had going for them was input lag and perhaps brightness due to the amount of backlit they had. Of course, as most manufacturers of monitors were buying television panels and plugging into a monitor logic board, it's not surprising they got a bad rep. These panels were the cheapest because the margins on TV panels were so low. This may also answer the question as to why PC monitors moved from 16:10 to 16:9, as broadcast TV is the same ratio, hence TV panels.
On topic, I owned an MVA panel in '05 from BenQ and yes, it was awesome, and 16:10.
IPS 10 bit is what I use now.

I have had a number of IPS and TN and the black levels looked very close to me.
