Which monitor? Are you referring to the Tempest X270OC? Are they shipping with the 2B PCB or is that DIY?

Ive got both, Catleap 1440p and VG278HE. Theres no doubt it my mind that the VG278HE is the best for gaming. Catleap is better for everything else.
Im very happy with my Asus. Its made by a quality company, built well, 3 year warranty, and 144hz. Playing at 144hz is like no other exprience.
I am a true gamer at heart. Whenever I play BF3 and die, I sometimes wonder if I would do better with a gaming monitor like the VG278HE.
