Thanks,

ATM there are no guarantees. It's hit or miss. There is one seller on eBay right now that guarantees a 2b selling @ ~ $550.

You mean the "multi overclock Edition"? If so that is not really a 120hz monitor. It will say it's running at 60hz+ but it skips all of the extra frames. So it's really a 60hz monitor.

The 2703 looks better. But why is there only tempered glass version? I hope they can produce new model without glass but with a AG layer.

Is it possible to get a 2c model and the overclockable PCB separately?

Not that I know of... the 2B PCB boards may or may not be available seperately for install later... word in the grapevine is that it may not be available till next year...

I have a Q270 & a 24" ViewSonic (1920x1080) & I can see the difference. Looking at a picture, I can definatly tell there a difference.

To compare with MS Excel, on 24", I can see Row A - AC & Column 1 - 43 (at font size 11)


On the Q270, I can see Row A - AM, & column 1 - 59

This is just opening Excel 2010, at the default settings

Question: Do you have to sit very close (less than 2 or 3) feet to see the difference against a 1080p display? Or are the differences note-able at ~3 feet viewing distances.

New member here, hi guys. I jumped the boat a couple of days ago, orderinq the recently introduced Q271 monitor from green-sum. It hasn't arrived yet. The main reasons of choosing it for me were its height of 468 mm vs Q270's 505 mm, which is important for me, and the ability to connect different devices to the same display (i.e. my current Windows-based PC and Mac-mini that I plan to get in the future). However, after giving it a more detailed research, I'm starting to become paranoid of the increased input lag which multi-input displays are said to have. I'm a casual gamer playing all kind of games including mmo's and online fps. It seems like I've never had any issues with controls delay neither with my current Benq FP91GP display, nor with my PS3 connected to Toshiba Regza 42" LCD. Can anybody gaming on a Yamakasi multi share his opinions on display behaviour in games please.

Boom.

Why is the HDMI version 130$ more?

I need a HDMI version...cause you know, I wanna play my PS3 on it...and I'd hook up my A/V Receiver to it, ect.

I just wish there was HDMI to Dual DVI that supported 2560 x 1440. Damn it!

There's no way I can see to get this to work with my receiver, the output that is, I have it the HDMI to the input of course, but if I want my OSD to display, as well as my PS3, it requires DVI. Plus I hear the HDMI version has more input lag, so frustrating...

So basically, this would be non-usable with my PS3...which is a good reason I wanted one, on top of a new PC monitor.
