Have been aiming for this monitor for the last few months and finally i almost got my cash ready to purchase it.
But recently read up a lot of negative customer feedback, high failure rate & the lack of quality control from ASUS that users are RMA/exchanging as much as 4 monitors and still get a bad unit.

This is what holding me back at the moment as there are currently only this monitor can do 144hz with 1440p.

Check on those 1 star review.

Really want to hear from ROG Swift users in Malaysia to clear things out a bit.
Thanks.
