    Once you go black you never go back ! .... Once I went 32'' anything smaller is a big no for me . Nice specs but we need 32'' for productivity and gaming :D

    I had a LG 27GN950-B and decided to switch it for an Acer CP3271K after a month, here is why:
    • The fan of the 27GN950 is audible, I swapped the screen two times and each had a unique, silent, high pitched noise that annoyed me at night
    • HDR works but the screen can't dim zones properly, you see white vertical lines in dark scenes
    • You get a very bright rainbow RGB LED show whenever you turn the screen on
    • All three models had major backlight bleeding (No broken pixels though)
    • The software didn't work properly on my pc and laptop
    • 160hz mode requires for most ppl a new cable
    • Premium features like a "light sensor" are missing entirely

    The cheaper Acer CP3271K has no fan, better software, less backlight bleeding, better -default- colour calibration and a light sensor. It offers 120hz@4k / 144hz@1440p on Nvidia GPUs and 144hz@4k on AMD GPUs.

    Perfect for ppl who do 4k video editing on their PC and play a game in the evening.

    What are the DP/HDMI standards? Can DP with DSC even support 4K 160 Hz?
