Given that the Asus model is 1440p and only costs $100 more, Philips isn't going to sell any of these.

This is the 3rd manufacturer, that I know of that has put out a G-Sync model so I am glad to see it on the market.

being that all the asus 1440ps are out of stock right now i think they'll get a few biters. i say in about a year or so we'll start seeing prices normalize.

Stopped reading and caring at 27 inches and 1080p TN panel.

1920 x 1080 + 27-inch = FAIL!! WAKE UP PHILIPS!!! The industry standard now is 2560 x 1440 + 27-inch + G-Sync -OR- 3840 x 2160 + 28-inch (or greater) + G-Sync. I own both the Asus ROG Swift and Acer XB280HK and they are awesome! A truly game changing experience and well worth the price of entry IMHO.

Top of the line at that form factor is hardly industry standard yet. In fact it remains to be seen if something like g-sync becomes a standard by itself, which, in my view, would be the logical projection for the industry that is not there yet.

doesnt g-sync itself add 100-150$ to the cost?
it wont be standard if thats the case.

They may not sell many, but they will sell some and especially since the ASUS one has been out of stock for a while now. I suppose it all remains to be seen as to how many other vendors jump into the G-Sync boat, but more quality competition is better than none.

Seriously I don't give a rats ass about G-sync at these prices if Adaptive-Sync/Freesync ones will sell at less of a premium. I want Nvidia to support it though.
