So apparently these two monitors at Checkers are causing a bit of a stir in the South African gaming scene:
Despite them being a no name rebrand for Checkers - it turns out they have pretty decent panels, 144Hz Freesync (G-sync compatible with DP cable) kind of decent.
My attention was drawn to them by a detailed post from a guy on the ZAGA Facebook group (ZA Gamers Association or something)
The Carbies are also going crazy for the monitors as they are such a good deal.
There’s also a handy thread picking out the spec details from the discussion (Link)
There are some concessions - the HDR isn’t really proper HDR and the colours do need a bit of calibration, the stand is not great either. But aside from that, anyone looking for a cheap but decent high refresh screen should get themselves down to Checkers (You need to register for their X-Savings card to get the deal) - This is not a sentence one would expect to be saying!
If I had the spare cash I’d definitely get one of the 27" monitors to replace my current 75HZ 27" - would love to have the high refresh rate in games.
