I hope Massdrop gets Ultrawides with G-sync at some point. All I ever see on here is Freesync ones. Kinda frustrating. I check every day for one.

K3x707xBENQ was on here a while ago and said that pretty much nobody is going to make G-sync monitors anymore because NVIDIA charges you fees to implement it and Freesync is, like the name might suggest, free to implement. I definitely hope that's not true for all manufacturers, but it's what they said.

demizeYeah that's not true for all manufacturers. Every 6 months or so there's a brand new one. The brand's I'm looking for are Asus (They won't stop because they also make the gpu's) and Acer. I own an Acer Predator Xb271huc (Best investment I ever made.)

K3x707xThe real problem is that Nvidia is in higher demand and so are the monitors as a result. These things can hold their price pretty well so getting them to place with Massdrop is more difficult than the lower demand FreeSync versions. But I'm hoping to see them as well. I need 3 to replace my 3 40" 1080p displays ;D

SantiagoDracoyou might not switch but there are also a large number of people that are still holing out to build a new machine with much older cards. those are the people that will probably upgrade. for most people with a 1080 or a ti i wouldn't expect them to switch nor would i suggest they do unless it comes in like 20% faster then the new titan Xp

K3x707xif you have a good enough graphics card gsync is just a negative for your system. It introduces input lag just as free sync and vertical sync do. Ideally you can simply run your FPS at a much higher rate than the hz of your monitor and this will reduce or remoze any tearing issues, whilst giving you the lowest amount of input lag. (I did a LOT of research before making this purchase, and though I would come to the discussion to pimp my videos I made baout the monitor as well as help anyone out that is in the situation of uncertainty I was in before I took the leap) hope this helps.

So YOU are the one picking and choosing shit in order to deceive people. You are the one trying to waste peoples' money and spread misleading information here. I am simply correcting YOUR communication failures, and was perfectly friendly about it too, until you came at me with an attitude and trying to call me a liar.

TelFiREOverwatch was released in 2016 and Blizzard built a new engine for it. By what definition is that *not* a modern game?
TelFiRE
605
May 4, 2017
Boognish86Because twitch shooter games run low graphics intentionally, and on top of this Blizzard targets a far wider audience than most current releases. It is why you can get 500+ fps in CSGO and why you can play Diablo 3 on a 7600 GT.
It is definitely picking-and-choosing to pick Overwatch as an example game when you are trying to prove a point that a graphics card can be so good that it will push 100 fps at 1440 Ultrawide. And honestly, I sincerely doubt that *EVEN OVERWATCH* would be able to do that.
The implication that there are cards out there that are "good enough" to make Gsync be undesirable at this resolution is simply a lie. It's absolutely, 100%, objectively false, and would be absurdly misleading to someone who didn't understand Gsync and was seeking information.
Boognish86

May 4, 2017
TelFiRE" Because twitch shooter games run low graphics intentionally "
That still doesn't negate it from being a modern game that will run 100+fps at 3440x1440 at high/ultra settings.
TelFiRE
605
May 4, 2017
Boognish86Right, and the fact that it is a modern game that will run 100 fps at 3440x1440 in ultra settings (which is actually not even 100% true, by the way, but even if it were) doesn't negate the fact that no GPU can push modern games to 100FPs at 3440x1440. Let's not make this a ridiculous fight over grammar. There's no leg to stand on here. Anyone who reads that a GPU can get 100 FPS in games at 3440 is obviously going to assume that's for actual modern games. They're not going to assume that's for Overwatch or CSGO. You're just trying to twist words to win internet points and it's fucking stupid.
There is no GPU that makes GSync undesireable. PERIOD. FULL STOP. That claim was a blatant lie designed to push a fanboy agenda. It is objectively false. There is no counter argument, so you keep trying to move the goalpost.

TelFiREI'm not and never was debating you regarding gsync. And I fully understand to what you're referring when using the term Modern Game. But, we both know that isn't an "official" designation and same goes with AAA. There are several games that might not meet your definition of Modern but a majority of people would still call a game released in the last year or so as Modern, regardless. And there are games that have been released in that time that will do 100fps @ 3440x1440. PERIOD. FULL STOP.
I didn't make this a ridiculous fight over grammar and/or semantics, you did.

Boognish86No, that's wrong, this conversation is and always was completely about GSync. If you failed to follow the conversation properly, that's on you. The only point of this discussion was GSync. That was the origin, and the only point I ever made, and the fact that you were arguing against me means you were arguing about GSync. If you didn't want to argue about GSync, you should not have jumped in on a conversation about GSync.

TelFiREOur conversation is about 100fps at 3440x1440. The fact your are responding means you were conversing about 100 fps at 3440x1440. If you did not want to concede your inaccuracies regarding 100fps at 3440x1440 you should not have continued in a conversation about 100fps at 3440x1440.

TelFiREIf YOU were at all informed about the popularity of games in the pc gaming realm on a world wide basis then ytou would know overwatch and league of legends are in the top 10. League has been the #1 game for a long time now only being subplanted temporarily by games like overwatch for short periods. To say that your specific game preferences matter over those of the majority, in a fcommunity about spending dollars, is rather inept. I bought the monitor for different reasons, including league and overwatch. So suck on an egg and go back to the days of when your ignorance lined up with your ego, when you were a child.

Childish especially considering his facts are wrong (this is not a 4k monitor it's 1440p which is 2,560 x 1,440 pixels...well within the abilities of top line video cards to run at high FPS). In any case it's clear these defensive posts won't stop so would you please take appropriate action?

SantiagoDracoDude, this is not a 2560x1440 monitor. It is 3440x1440. It is an absolute FACT that no GPU can consistently maintain 100 fps on this, without turning settings down, and yes, OBVIOUSLY games like CSGO are a potential exception, but I've made it clear those aren't the games I'm talking about (nor are they the games people buy these kinds of monitors for, those people would want a lot more Hz).
PLEASE stop trying to spread misinformation and PLEASE stop antagonizing me! Jesus fucking christ, I did nothing but point out facts!!! Never did I try to mislead anyone, or one up anyone, or have any fucking pissing contest. Literally this whole thread is just me defending the one point I made, which to this very moment, no one has a single reasonable counter to. There was no reason to tell this guy that GSync is undesirable. That was a misleading statement and I am sticking to the facts, not popularism and jumping on a hate-bandwagon. You guys are way too worried about your epeen to realize that all I'm doing is pointing out a simple fact.
SantiagoDraco

May 5, 2017
TelFiREWell I'll say this... someone needs to fix the heading for this product as it clearly says "1440p" which is NOT 4k (and now that I look neither is this monitor 4k). The screen resolution is neither 1440p or 4, it's in between. 1440p is 2560x1440. This monitor is higher than that but below 4k. So you are correct TelFiRE for the most part... the vast majority of games will not sustain 100fps at 4k with ultra settings. Edit: However since this ISN'T 4k either... it's debatable how well top cards will do. They may or may not. There should be tests out there to prove it rather than ranting about it here. Posts some real test results to make your point.
That said you've been very antagonistic and defensive...to the extreme. If you can't see how inappropriate your behavior is here, which also serves to blind everyone to any relevant information you might post, then there's not much point arguing. Just look at your language and how you are personally attacking everyone who disagrees with you.

SantiagoDraco4k is something entirely different. This is a 1440p ultrawide monitor.
I'm just defending myself. I am not the antagonistic one, you can't objectively come to that conclusion. But yeah, obviously I am very prone to taking things more personally than I should and got very defensive. But, what do you expect? There is literally no way to unsubscribe from this thread. There is no way for me to get away from the constant attacks by people who aren't even correct in their information. And, no one jumped on all the people who are being blatantly antagonistic toward me. No one seems to care about their behavior. Because you are victim blamers.

May 5, 2017
TelFiREI also take things personally but I've learned over the years that it's not worth it to get worked up and react... at the end of the day no one really cares and if they are being jerks... let em :) Not trying to preach, just one hot head pointing out an observation.
True on the ultrawide being different. Not sure what the real designation is for that. My point though is that it's less than 4k so there's more of a chance of obtaining higher fps than on a true 4k (which would have more pixels) and provided the video drivers are optimized at a particular resolution.
One other observation on why someone would choose a monitor like this, imo. Personally I agree with the "immersion" choice in general however there's a pretty huge advantage in fps game if you have a wider field of view... (of course some games don't allow it like Overwatch) so I could certainly see people, like myself, choosing it for that over a monitor that supports my Nvidia card if price was the main concern. There's a lot of people who will choose various reasons for buying one monitor over another and your, mine or other opinions might be completely different. Me, I run 3 40" 1080p monitors because the overall experience is more important to me than max fps. That said I suck at FPS games so there you go :)
TelFiREAgain, Please breath and relax. I was not pointing the finger at anyone here. I was simply asking everyone here to politely give it a rest. That is all. There was no hidden meaning or agenda to my comment. I was not pointing you out specifically as I tagged everyone in that post who has been a part of the conversation.

TelFiREMan, you need to take the internet less serious. Also, no everyone is looking to play the same games. Some people might look for a monitor for their old mmo or less intensive games. Gsync is useful, but the feature is overprice. If only the person value tearing for 600 more, then they can buy a predator or strix.

I get more information in a 21:9 format than a 16:9 format when playing league of legends. I bought this monitor and play those two games. I can run those two games perfectly fine on this monitor at 100fps (or MUCH higher), and I have a coach I pay for league because I take it so seriously as a competitive sport. So please continue with your hate speech and ignorance. If mass drop doesn't ban you sooner than later I will look at other options.

TelFiREYou're super aggro, maybe you need some therapy?
side note: with higher resolutions, you can remove AA and lower some other settings to keep FPS where you want them without making the game less visually appealing. I usually lower them to the point where I want them, then a little more so that the frames won't drop below that. However, if you aren't willing to lower the graphics quality, g sync might be appealing as you are going to be stressing your graphics card pretty much to its limits. So you are both right. However, due to your attitude, you are wrong.

TelFiREfirst of all, thanks for the information about 3440x1440p ultrawide games running 100hz for gtx 1080ti. i have the 2560x1400p krn monitor with the r9 390 and i couldnt push it 100hz/100fps. but i plan to upgrade to a this monitor or something just like this 3440x1440p 100hz. but i know the rx580 would be no where close to holding 100fps for 3440x1440p. i thought that maybe the gtx 1080 can but after seeing youtube videos comparing gtx 1080ti vs gtx 1080 the average FPS for the 1080 is around 60-80 depending on the open world modern games like GTAV, Witcher 3, far cry series. and roughly ~80-100fps for the 1080ti. so really the only graphic card closest to handling it is the gtx 1080ti but i wasnt sure if still may have a problem. from what you are saying, it seems like even the gtx 1080ti will have some hiccups. I guess the next best choice would be to get the 2560x1440p viotek gold 32" monitor as to use. reason why i am saying this is because i dont want to cough up 700$ for a 1080ti and 500$ for this monitor and find that its not up to my expectation. noone online was i able to get anyone's review on these monitors on a gtx 1080 and 1080 ti to running 100hz/100fps. only thing i want to point out is, getting upset or frustrated on forums isnt worth it. there will always be trolls even if it wasnt intentional or if it was. say what you need to say and people will take what is worth. i learned that the more one talks the more people will attack or blame. i know i learned it in dota 2. always have the blamer trying to pick a scapegoat when they lose and its usually the one that talks most.

bonbon525If you are wanting to get a smooth performance you can definitely change some settings down a bit, but if you are looking to truly max everything out, there's nothing you can really do to guarantee 100 frames at these resolutions in some of the most taxing games. Still I think the difference between 1080 and 1080ti is well worth it personally and I think you'd be very happy with 3440. I think the bump in resolution is worth having to turn a few things down personally.
