i have a acer af715. this is the only monitor capable of 75Hz refresh rate at 1600x1200. which is incredble. It is a power hog by the way.

U have to press a acer dealer to get one of there. I had to create a bit of a siftuation. i emailed the local distri via their website theni need 20 monitors but one initially for testing.. for such a big order they will run around u and do asu like. i know this might be wrong but then this monitor is a major feature rich beauty. and cheap too. besides it is a companies job to provide products they advertise abt.
