Guys,
I have an Asus PB328Q 32 which is the same AMVA panel as the OMEN.
I just bought an OMEN now, and will receive it today.
On the Asus FPS games are buttery smooth @ 75hz with a 1070.
I do not understand why the OMEN should skip frames at 75hz, this makes no sense. Possibly try 74hz? Anyone tried this?
Also on default, it should not skip at 75...something is not right.
On all the Korean monitors with free sync (I have tried them all), Freesync actually helps Nvidia cards to reduce lag somewhat.
The colors on the ASUS are fantastic that is why I ordered the Omen.
Let's keep testing I'm sure there's a work around.

I have tried those, no change
Have tried with Freesync on and off, basically changing the different profiles.
I just tried setting this up against the ASUS PB328Q, which has exceptional color. The omen is pretty close, but missing a little saturation that I cannot give, since there is no saturation control.
Whites are whiter on the Asus, blacks are similar on both. A good indicator of black levels is to see how orange colors look.
Take a look at this video
Notice how nice and orange the skiers jacket looks. This orange color is much more yellow on ALL IPS monitors, since they have inferior black levels, and much deeper orange on the ASUS and Omen, which both Kill IPS blacks.
I have these settings for now:
Brightness 90
Contrast 87
Color control : neutral
I did notice both the Omen and the Asus drop to 8 bit color at 75hz. I have them both set to full RGB.
I know the Asus does not skip frames @ 75, so now I'm gonna pull the DSLR OUT

Well I did custom profiles in the NVIDIA control panel, I can get it up to a whopping 61Hz, after that it start frame skipping.
Tried multiple settings in the NVIDIA Control Panel 3D settings, nothing helped.
- Maximum Rendered Frames - 1 = skipping
- Triple Buffering - On = skipping
- Verticle Sync - All settings = skipping
japilla1 I would like to see photo evidence of the ASUS not frame skipping at 75Hz. For me I like the better saturation you posted and if I can get no skipping at 75Hz, I may be willing to pay the extra cash.

I guarantee you that it does not skip frames at 75hz. A while back I posted many pictures in overclockers.net. Of course i can take new ones too.
BTW, my job is working all day in photo shop correcting color of luxury bags, so you can well imagine how important color is to me. I have a studio here, where the only thing I photograph are bags..
The rest of time I play FPS games. Been playing since Doom/Qake 1, 1997.
In the past 8 weeks I have seen quite a few monitors come and go. The Asus is the only one that has not been sold or returned. If you read Tom's hardware review, they glorify this monitor, and it's all true.
You may think I am crazy, but tomorrow another animal is arriving. I bought a Sony X800D 43". I have never, ever, thought of using a TV with a pc, and I really want to try.
I really want to see what input lag feels like, and I want to compare the triluminous display with the Asus.
If Money were no object I would buy the Sony Z9, which fulminates any other TV or monitor on the market. I think the picture is even better than OLED.

Can't agree with you there.
I don't have that issue at all on mine. I wonder if they are using multiple different panels in these.
It will if the monitor arm is big enough. Most monitor arms (and stands) aren't made for 32" displays.

Every one on here thats talking about frame skipping is using nvidia,
but mine is skipping with a amd hd7770

1)Are you using display port?
2)Does that old hd7770 have freesync? (If not it would behave just like nvidia)
Confirmed. Your hd7770 does not support free sync. So yes it would act like an nvidia card. Looks like you need an AMD 2xx or newer card for freesync.Every one on here thats talking about frame skipping is using nvidia,

Either run it at 60hz, or upgrade your video card. You could buy a card like the AMD 285 or 380 for probably about $100 in the for sale thread or on ebay.

shew thats a relief I was thinking it had something to do with my card not having freesync.
I plan on upgrading here soon to what ever comes out next vega or dual Polaris.
besides the frame skipping it looks fantastic hella nice upgrade for the money over my 7 year old acer 24" 1920x1200 monitor
I did some color correcting late last night. I want to take back what I said about the colors being close to the Asus 32". They are not nearly as good, and the fact that you cannot adjust RGB makes this monitor inadequate for color correcting.
With or without freesync turned on this monitor should not skip frames at 75hz.
What settings are you using? Fastest?
Another point:
Anyone who tells you that 27" 1440p is the sweet spot, is because they have never tried a 32" @1440p. The 32 is so much more immersive in games, and is perfect in windows without scaling.

So, I got my monitor yesterday and while testing I noticed this:

Can I return or exchange it?

With my 980ti and Fresync on it still skips at 75Hz.
Man I think there must be some quality control problems on these panels or something for people to have so disparate opinions. My blacks on the monitor are better than my Dell 3014 and way better than the Acer xz350cu. I have no bleed as I showed in my YouTube video. Colors with just the brightness lowered a bit and otherwise default settings are a hair less impressive to my untrained eye than my professionally calibrated Dell 3014 in Adobe RGB mode. I do pick up a wee bit more motion blur than the Dell 3014, but it's fully acceptable and even preferable because of 75hz and freesync functionality over the Dell 3014. I'll unborn hook up my new two tonight and try to eyeball some comparison. See if they are as good as my first unit. My first one I purchased directly from HP. These next two came from Amazon.

Mine fit directly on to a Vesa mount without any issues.

This monitor does have pwm. not "flicker free"
I ran the PMW Flickering test on BlurBusters and got one single line to appear. It might not be flicker free but I didn't get any flickering when i ran the test at 50 percent brightness. I can try other brightness settings and see if it changes anything.

Yes I read it is not there or its very hard to notice.
I don't notice it at all on mine, but I generally don't notice on monitors other people say flixker.
At the bottom of your monitor
