I agree.. using 27CFG70 here..27inch version.. Its really a good gaming monitor...
my previous monitor was a Asus MG279Q IPS 144hz monitor, colours on the CFG70 can match with the IPS panel but CFG70 has better contrast... recommended monitor |

QUOTE(Kellicros @ Feb 17 2017, 02:35 PM) I saw the sale on Lazada, the preoder has another additional RM200 discount, was tempting but didn't buy it cause my current monitor is still working fine. read my previous post.. I previously own Asus MG279Q IPS 144 hz panel.. CFG70 can match the IPS but with better contrastIt uses the new Quantum dot panel, wondering how is that compared to IPS and VA.  and yeah..i preordered from lazada.. RM2099 - RM200 discount + Razer Deathadder And Razer MousePad free = RM1899..good deal This post has been edited by edthrax: Feb 17 2017, 02:46 PM |

QUOTE(Kellicros @ Feb 17 2017, 03:12 PM) Sounds good, but no more such offer now, gotta wait till my current monitor dies. that part..cant really comment..i think curve are meant for ultrawide.. 1 more question though, about the curve, it is stated in the specs that the curve is more than a regular curve monitor. How is it when viewed from afar like may 2 meter from the screen? Most curve monitor has a best viewing point, but I sometimes sit father from my screen when watching movies and not gaming. cant really feel the difference from far.. close probably feels abit engaging during gaming..but I watch movies/series.. cant tell much whats the curve effect.. |

QUOTE(zorbyss. @ Mar 16 2017, 12:15 PM) You mean MG279Q IPS can match CFG70 QD right haha..usually people say IPS is the best, so thats why i said CFG70 can match MG279Q.. since AMVA is known to be inferior interms of colours compared to IPS..  Damn, would have held off my 29UM68 purchase if CFG70 release earlier. Sigh.  but not the case for CFG70.. the colour is really good.. This post has been edited by edthrax: Mar 16 2017, 12:17 PM |

QUOTE(zorbyss. @ Mar 16 2017, 01:03 PM) Well actually CFG70 is more than a VA panel. It's a quantum dots display (QLED) which rivals OLED panels in terms of picture quality, at least according to the articles I've read. sold mine,just gonna stick to 1080p gaming and console gaming, lazy to upgrade graphic card to drive 1440p gamingI'm surprise this review did not mention any of this information. Anyway, what's of the fate of your MG279Q? |

QUOTE(xPrototype @ Mar 19 2017, 12:14 PM) Is it sharp? Because I heard there would be banding/blur/unclear if 1080p on 27inch monitor u wont notice on gaming .. but text , web browsing , yes it is not as sharp as a 1440p panel.. i think 24 inch is max for 1080p for sharpness.. 27 inch best on 1440p.. but in game, wont notice much especially on fps or fast pace game. |
