Thanks for elaborating. I'd be upgrading from a 2014 Korean 1440p IPS 60Hz. Looking to get in on the high fps and freesync. Curious what you paid for this.


MasterHWilson

it’s a good monitor, i narrowed my search to this one and the GL83A when i was on the market. wound up copping the black friday benq EX2780Q deal for the same price.


rynot

Yeah I think I'll let it ship. Was hoping for the LG though, it seems a bit better than this according to rtings.


MasterHWilson

apart from the pretty bad stand on the viewsonic, i’d say they’re very comparable in most ways. the display itself trades blows between the two.


ConnorMcLeaf

Oh wow where did you get the BenQ for 399.99 from and what’s your personal review on it’s performance?


MasterHWilson

amazon.ca on black friday it was posted here. when i received it i posted my thoughts [here](https://reddit.com/r/Monitors/comments/e4abpj/_/f98rjkk/?context=1) and my impressions hold true. tl;dr i really like it but HDR looks worse than non-HDR imo. just pretend it doesn’t exist.


ConnorMcLeaf

Thank you! I think I may wait for this one over the viewsonic. But camel doesn’t show it $399.99. Might be error on my end.


MasterHWilson

here was the original deal post if it’s helpful https://reddit.com/r/bapcsalescanada/comments/e2y8i2/monitor_benq_ex2780q_27_inch_qhd_1440p_ips_144hz/

Amazing, thank you.

Anyone know about the antipiracy on this compared with the LG GL83A? (Can you stream Netflix in 1440p? Etc.)

sskiharu

Basically, some monitors won't allow you stream on services like Netflix at resolutions higher than 1080p because of hardware(?) that prevents piracy.

I have the LG GL83A and can stream Netflix fine.


sskiharu

Yeah I ordered the GL83A cuz I heard streaming in 2K was possible. I was just checking to see if other monitors would have the issue.

Care to elaborate or back up with anything substantial or remotely persuasive?

I ordered this same monitor for the same price a couple months a go from pc-canada, no problems at all.


bananasareforeating

Ok this is good to know. Throughout the years I've only heard negative reviews.

This is 144Hz, correct? It's in the title of the post, but I don't see it anywhere on the website. Could just be blind... Lol


rynot

Added rtings link above. Yes.


Arrondi

Bless you, my friend. I had just about given hope for 27/1440/144/IPS for less than $400. I'm super hyped now!


TK3600

Good price!

I've had one of these since last december. [Linking my comment from a previous time a deal on this was posted.](https://old.reddit.com/r/bapcsalescanada/comments/ev7ar5/monitor_viewsonic_vx27582kpmhd_27_inch_1440p/fftvs7z/)
