It's okay, keep in mind it's only 10% off so unless you've been waiting to buy this monitor specifically, it's not the best deal.
It's a damn good price for a monitor that;
Is IPS
Is WQHD
Is 144Hz and
Has Freesync
Correct, but it was good even at it's RRP of ~$750.
Dell S2718D 27" QHD Monitor $878.2
Is it a good price?

I'd say no, but it depends what you're looking for. That one is only 60Hz, but it's probably better for photo editing than the Asus because of its sRGB coverage.
dell's probably a little delayed in games.. but good for everything else
No its only 60hz and uses amd free sync. I got my dell qhd 144hz for $799 down from $999 when ebay had 20% off dells page.
uses amd free sync
Nothing wrong with that if you run AMD hardware.
Need 4K and G-Sync
Theres always one in every monitor post isnt there
For at least a thousand dollars more, sure.
I got the acer TN 144Hz gaming monitor deal from last week. it only cost $336 but overall i'm going back to my 60Hz IPS monitor for gaming
144Hz is ok.. but i still see a little blur in gaming on League of legends.. you need 240Hz to get 100% smooth gameplay i'm guessing..
YES i checked it was running at 144Hz .. TN is trash.. washed out colours are not worth the trade off for the 144Hz.. this monitor would be awesome though.
Was that 336$ monitor QHD though?
Nope.. only 1080p but so was the IPS 60hz monitor it replaced.. overall the IPS is a much better gaming experience.
Yeah I game on a 27" AOC IPS at 60hz and love it. Would love a 144hz but the image the AOC provides is beautiful! Even at 1080p
144hz TN is trash vs 60hz IPS… .. IPS at 144Hz would be just awesome in every way!
I'm giving my 144hz TN that ive only used for a week to my bother because its THAT BAD.. once you go IPS you cant go back to TN ,, even with the nice 144hz refresh its not enough of a bonus for what you give up
@vid_ghost: Have you tried overclocking the refresh rate of your IPS by making a custom resolution? I was able to bump my refresh rate up to 74hz without any problems.
60 to 75?.. i dont even think 60 to 144hz is worth it.. as soon as i got into the game and noticed it was much smoother at 144hs i wanted MORE.. it still ghosted at 144hz scrolling around the map.. much less then 60hz but i think 240hz is NEEDED to get zero ghosting when panning around on league of legends
@vid_ghost: Gonna need a beast PC rig to get 240+ FPS
@Divitini: i get 390FPS in league of legends with my RX470 and i3 6100T 34w low power CPU :)
FPS games? 144hz is pretty pointless for League
i disagree man. i was able to flash all these skillshots after getting a 144hz monitor. when i was on 60hz i would eat all those skillshots to the face. Now im bronze 2 after 144hz, up from bronze 4 on 60hz.
nice work.. i do notice a difference with 60 to 144hz in Leage of legends… i feel like it would be better playing it with 240Hz .. 144hz still isnt enough to get 100% smooth map scrolling … anyways IPS looks so much nicer then TN.. I'm in Plat 4.. 60 - 144Hz hasent improved my game play.

One day I'll upgrade to an IPS 144hz monitor.. for now IPS 60 hz will do….
i have a 90cm high retaining wall that's not looking good. possible $30,000 repair cost in my future that makes me think twice about wasting money.
I honestly cant tell if this comment is sarcasm hahaha
@GossipGoat: thats the best type of sarcasm ;)
@GossipGoat: The internet isn't as great medium for communicating sarcasm. Sometimes people even use tags which is like being sarcastic and then telling the person that you're being sarcastic.
NOPE.. its not sarcasm.. i got some quotes to repair a 20 year old retaining wall.. prices i got back were around $30k .. so wasting $700 for a PC Monitor doesn't sound like a good idea when i should be saving up for that rainy day when the wall needs fixing. I think winter wasn't good for the wall.
:) bills and living expenses are more important then luxury entertainment like this IPS gaming monitor
Oneday when maybe a 20-30% of RRP pops up I'll jump on the price but until then.. 10% is only good for those that want one now.
@vid_ghost: nice pun! Rainy day + retaining wall!
@vid_ghost: And just a few days later a 20% pops up. Next time you should wish for 90% MSRP
im still waiting for a IPS 144HZ atleast 1440P Monitor
umm this is a 1440P 144Hz IPS panel
Oh, I thought it was non IPS - My bad.
I legit didnt think these existed yet
you can even get IPS 165HZ 1440P Monitor's .. and ive seen 4k, IPS 144hz monitors coming out . they were shown off at this years 2017 tech expos
The Freesync range is 30-75hz only. If you're looking at a monitor of this price and refresh rate you've probably got a GPU pushing frames around the 75-144hz mark which diminishes the value of it being Freesync considerably.
Amazing find! If you haven't yet, post it up. Amazing price!
I ordered mine on a Friday and it rocked up the Monday - I'm absolutely stoked with it. Amazing monitor.
I want to order one, but I am not sure it it is better to just buy in stores in case there is a problem with it.
Far out that's a good price.
