ASUS PB287Q - Anyone got one? know of them?

[SuB]

Just looking at getting a third, bigger, central screen. With higher than 1080p res, found this puppy for what I consider to be quite a fair price...(£600)

Specs are 28inch, 4k res, 1ms response time, DisplayPort 1.2, HDMi 1.4 with MHL, 10-bit colour...

Anyone know of/seen this screen? It almost sounds too good to be true...

I'm putting it on my to-do list I think.

No one has one yet mate they are not retail just yet

 

[SuB]

ah, okay, well I pre-ordered it. It just looks too good to pass-up! I'll do a review when she arrives

You got a link to it?

http://www.asus.com/Commercial_Monitors_Projectors/PB278Q/overview/

That's what I found - 2560x1440, not 4K, and 5ms response, not 1ms?

You sure you've got the right product code?

Edit: PB287Q I think you mean. Asus could have been a bit clearer with their naming!

Do you have a link for it?

James beat me to it.

 

[SuB]

Ah yes, amended the title

Overclockers have it on pre-order here

And I've pre-ordered from amazon here

Which you will notice is listed with the wrong serial in the title, but correct in the description.


so.. anyone else grabbing one?

i had the the 27inch 1440p and never had a problem

 

[Pugsport]

4k would be awesome but ive not even seen a 4k tv yet so im not sure about using one everyday, day in day out.

so a review would be good

i had been looking at it tho just thinking im not so sure

 

[SuB]

After faffing with the supplier I ended up cancelling this (they sent me the 27 inch 1440p one because they're stupid), ended up trying the VG248QE (G-Sync one) and sending 2 of those back, (one faulty, the second just don't like 1080p) and now I've got 2 Dell's instead lol so I'm afraid I don't have one for review. Tom may end up with one soon though.

They can be had for £562.71 from amazon now though (3rd party supplier)

Yeah, the 1080p screens just don't have enough vertical space for me, I love 1200p so sending the Asus back got another 2412M and a U2413 as the centre screen.

Now have to either retire the old 2407wfp *sniff* or get a screen mount to put it above my centre screen.

sweet mate but i do find there is only a set number of videos you can watch at one given time.

i used to have two monitors but found that i always had a lot of stuff open, id not mind trying trying three monitors for gaming but its still a fair amount to lay out if i dont get on with it

Yeah I'm a heavy 'productivity' user, so 2 screens was always a must, 3 is excellent, gives me more space and a centralised screen instead of being twisted/offset while gaming.

Yes... I ordered, and paid the £600 for, the 287, then received, returned and had to wait for a refund(took 2 fucking weeks) the 278...

Thus, f**k that noise for the time being. triple 1200p has me a happy camper since nVidia surround is retarded and chooses 1050p instead of 1080p when your screens mismatch....
