It will be a long time before we get the sub $900 back, but this is the cheapest for now.

Way eyeing that one for a while, ended up going the XB271HU because I got a decent deal through the wholesaler, only just a touch above this price.
Seems that a lot of people are having good experiences with these now, later build dates don't seem to have much/any Backlight bleed, mines perfect.
Do these monitors have HDR enabled yet?
Got one from the last sale. Highly recommended to enter the lottery ;)
How would these compare with the ~$300 Korean 1440p IPS monitors that can be overclocked to 120HZ? Sure there may be no G-sync and warranty is a gamble, but its a decent saving.
My current one is a QNIX. Only overclocks to about 84Hz, any higher and I get artifacts. Also a pain to set the drivers, etc. after each driver update, which is why I'm upgrading.
I put my order in this morning and already received my tracking number from the courier. Hope it reaches me in Melbourne before the weekend.
Wow, my order arrived within 24 hours. Sydney to Melbourne.
Caved and ordered mine! Did you pay for express post? How did you fair in the lottery? :P
I didn't pay for express post, really surprised it got to me in 24 hours. Thankfully I faired ok in the lottery, just some light backlight bleed on the right edge of the screen, cant really complain.
Awesome! How are you finding it?
Not worth the saving for a panel lottery item, my advice…buy it local so you can take it back if you get one with BLB or IPS Glow. Acer have a better QC than Asus atm but it's still a 50/50 chance. Good luck
I just grabbed this one for $756: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/281451023259, although it's the slightly lower model.
Unfortunately it's the last one left but hopefully they get some more in.
