S!

 

 I recall a few has it and works. But still a "bit" too steep to pay 850€ for a monitor. You can get 100Hz+ monitors with better image quality than the Swift for 300€ less. TN vs IPS ;)

I've just got mine back yesterday after a having it sent for RMA due to some inversion artifacts. This new one seems perfect. 

As far as I know this is the only 144Hz, 1440p, g-sync monitor on the market so only you can judge if it's worth the price for you. If you aren't picky about input lag, pixel response time, refreshrate or screen tearing then you better of with an IPS panel that will produce a better looking picture for far less cash. 

 

Just remember that you still need a pretty good PC to get the most of the monitor, the only cable capable of feeding the monitor is Displayport 1.2 so make sure your graphics card has this output.

I have one, very happy with its gaming performance, it works very well with this title but it is a TN panel and if your coming from an IPS panel as others said you will notice the difference if you doing video/picture work even web surfing , its kinda impossible not to IMO.

Contrast ratio is low 1000:1, what do you think of the colors?

The best I've seen for a TN panel but it's still a TN panel, unless you are sitting at the right height & angle you will get color and contrast shifts starting from the top and bottom of the screen. The monitor compensates for this as you have a really really wide range of motion on the display stand.

 

For me color accuracy is not that important during gaming. I value motion clarity way above and if I had the chance to lower the viewing angles for more motion clarity I would make the trade without blinking.  ;)

Just got one. 2560x1440 144Hz absolute killer this monitor in comparison with 1920x1080. Wider view from cockpit, therefore less hat switch needed, easier to identify planes, easier to aim from distance, and planes of course look better from a distance.

Nu stutter or tearing, wonderful colours for a TN panel. Expensive one at the moment, but I have no regret so far.
