XB271HU is a great monitor, PROVIDED you can get a defect-free panel.

It has a lot of QC problems till this day. Dust stuck between the panels, mediocre to bad levels of backlight bleed and substantial IPS glow.

I got the predecessor XB270HU and luckily no defects. I'm not sensitive to IPS glow so can't really commend on that. If I'm in the market for new gaming monitor, I will definitely gamble on a 3840x1440 ultra wide 100Hz IPS screen with some adaptive sync.

Gaming only, not for any graphical work since curve is no good.

looks like Idealtech has GTX1070 pricing out, RM2.4k for FE

So I'm guessing (speculate lol) non-FE will be around 2k-2.2k depending on brand and cooler. Meaning 2nd hand 980Ti still can be bought at <RM1.7k otherwise just buy a new 1070.

Really wish GPU as powerful as 970's price will be pushed to sub RM800, that will give tons of GPU power to affordability range. May that be 2nd hand 970, 390X or new 1060 idk. I think the RX 480 will be price around RM1k.

Price setting agreement I reckon. Either all the stocks come from one source and that source is the one setting the price, or the stocks comes from multiple source, and one store sets a price and the rest follow. In this line of business, if one store breaks that code and go against the rest and set cheaper price, watch as the rest gang up against him and oppress him: either in limiting stocks to him, squeeze him out of minimum order quantity (MOQ) on his next restocking, or other unscrupulous deeds that is equally despicable.

I thought the seller at LYF and Lelong will be free from such pressure, looks like I was wrong. Sigh.

I wonder if anyone documents the price trends for pc parts in Malaysia like pcpartpicker. For example, https://pcpartpicker.com/trends/price/video-card/.

Would be interesting to see.
