Question 1

Do these monitors work with nvidia gtx 1080 ti with all the specs @ 144hz/1ms without any configuration ?

Accepted Answer

With the latest 1080ti drivers the monitor needs to be set to "standard" Free-sync mode. This will enable the G-Sync compatibility mode in the Nvidia Control Panel to appear. This is only applicable when using the Display Port so 144hz will also be possible.

Question 2

Is this a Freesync 2 Certified monitor?

Accepted Answer

No its not certified. I returned my unit because of this.

Question 3

I am interested in this monitor, however it has brightness 350 - 250 nits. 250 is still very high brightness. Could anyone who owns it, comment

Accepted Answer

It's very bright. I have it set on 0 so it's easy on the eyes, but that's still plenty of light, especially since my apartment is not so bright.

Question 4

Is this the best monitor for an Xbox One X?

Accepted Answer

Personally I’d say yes, unless your willing to go to a £1k+ monitor.
It supports Freesync 2, HDR, variable refresh rate, 120Hz and 1440p, which are all supported by the one X.
Only catch is it only allows 120Hz over hdmi if you disable Freesync 2, hower you would need a £2,000 monitor to get this.
My settings on Xbox are 1440p resolution, 60hz, variable refresh rate, allow HDR, allow 4K. This monitor will then accept the resolution in 4K from the Xbox and sort it out, even though it’s not 4K. This then allows 60hz with Freesync 2.
I also have a one x plugged into £1000 Panasonic hdr tv and this monitor gives smoother gaming and much better blacks.
You will need a gaming headset as it does not have speakers, but that was not an issue for myself.
