I think this is a good bundle for people wanting to get into the XB271HU wagon and you get keyboard as well.
Lowest was $876 at Futu on ebay sales, but it has been $940 lately.

Good deal of investment, if you live not far from pc case gear. Just in case you not happy with the screen due to excessive Blb or dead pixel etc. Got myself the AOC AG271QB which equivalent to this model and pretty happy with it.
Thanks whtbox for your point. I don't actually live near PCCG lol so haven't factored in shipping or if any issues, RMAs etc. perhaps ill hold off for now.
I used to play dota2 on a 24" Acer monitor around same age as your Benq. The gpu was the nvidia one in my rMBP or HD5500 of my xps13 :D
Honestly with your video card and just for Dota, this monitor is excessive unless you plan on upgrading your graphics card eventually.
You can get some nice 27" Full HD monitors that are 144hz for about 3 or 400
Shipping Standard $38 to Sydney
kills deal for me sadly
Why does every computer company assume all gamers like red and black? I swear is the sole basis of their marketing.
I'd like all yellow and hot pink, no1 would steal it if they broke in lol.
God dammit so tempting, I just bought a 1070 but I already have a 60hz 1440p monitor.. I don't even play any first person shooters so its probably not worth the upgrade
Giving them away…bad qc must resist
From the limited reading I've done, the QC has improved over the years, through better manufacturing processes, and firmware updates. Apparently the later built ones have less backlight bleed. It really depends on your tolerance for it though. You can take photos in perfect conditions with a camera and be unhappy with the "IPS glow", but at the end of the day unless you can see if with the human eye does it really matter?
Owning one myself (upgraded from a U2412M). I would never go back to TN. I think any backlight bleed is instant overwritten by the IPS colours and view angles/experience
With that reasoning wouldn't a VA panel be superior as it also offers wide viewing angles, true 8bit colour, and has a far greater native contrast and without the light bleed?
If I could inspect and pick this up before buying this would be an amazing deal but I just don't trust the AU Optronic Panels in the XB271HU and PG279Q series….something better is in the pipeline and it doesn't involve AU Optronics
Just a heads up, I just sent my XB271HU back in for replacement due to 4 dead pixels popping up within 2 days of use.
Keep in mind that if PCCG can still make a profit including shipping and a keyboard…what is this monitor actually worth minus markup?
Sold out now, went to buy it and noticed too late :(
Don't worry, have a feeling the price of these will drop just after xmas
Got it before it was sold out, such a deal! Sell the keyboard for $100 and its like $769 XD Thanks for the deal!
Hopefully you get a good one, otherwise that $100 will be sent sending it back
Nice looking monitor. Thinking if I should upgrade from a 24' BenQ monitor that is 7 years old. Nothing wrong with it though.. Current gpu is a nvidia 960. I only play Dota 2. Thoughts?
