I received MG279Q

Hi .

I got the MG279Q today and want to write my impressions.

No dead pixels. Looks great. Shame I can't test 144hz because my laptop cannot make it. Even at lower resolutions. I have a 980M card but the Intel HD 4000 doesn't allow me to put resolutions more than 60hz.
I use Displayport cable and no luck. I guess the Intel card keeps me at 1440P at 60hz. Same for lower resolutions.

I was shocked that Assasin Creed Black Flag didn't look much better from 1080P to 1440P.
The desktop in windows I do see a massive improvement.

Shame Im gonna have to return it as I can't test if the 144hz have frame skipping.

I expected 1440p to be a big improvement...

did you set the game to 1440p?

if you didn't, its still at 1080p.

you going to return it because of what? lol, where did you buy it from?

you high or something?

The monitors were recalled because they skip every 6th frame at 144hz. I don't think it was big news because it had barely started shipping in europe.

Of course the games I set the ganes at 1440p.

Not high man. The is a good reason; i return it because the problem the monitor has with 144hz skipping frame and because my 980M is a good card and still can't keep with that resolution for 60fps.

TBH, I think your issue stems around Optimus more so than the 980M. Have you checked your BIOS to see if you can give the integreated Intel more RAM to work with?
