Cracking price for a well spec'd 4K monitor. Was this price back in March and hasn't been dropped since, but eBuyer have flicked the switch for today's daily deal. (excited)
An Acer RT0 monitor looks remarkably slim because it's thinner than a thin smartphone and it also has a very thin frame. This minimalist beauty combines with the elegance of the T-shaped metal stand for a stylish monitor that fits seamlessly in any space.

All you guys talking about being crap because it's 60Hz. It's 4K. What GPU's are you running? :smile:

It's cheap because it's TN, not 60Hz.

How do you tell if this is a higher quality plastic?

Whoa! I'm excited too! OP - why should I buy this over the £199.99 electriQ 4k 28" on laptops direct? Just give me a reason! I want it!

Man, regret buying the Samsung 4k monitor for £270 on Laptops Direct yesterday! Due to be delivered in 10 minutes as well.
Oh well, there's always a better deal round the corner.
And to the guy asking for reason to buy over the cheap looking electriQ, I would argue the design is enough reason to justify. Would you prefer your office/desk set up to have the horrible cheap plastic of electriQ screen or this?

Damn, I want it but need a 144hz monitor.

I don't think 144hz 4k exists yet.

Nice, though FreeSync is only on the DP input and the FreeSync range is only 40-60Hz (and so no Low Framerate Compensation).

60Hz - cheap for a reason

TN is the killer for this deal sadly, not 144HZ. There is nor a GPU that can decently run 4K games at 144Hz nor the price that would be suitable. It doesn't really exist yet, maybe later in the year. But expect prices £1000+

Good luck driving 4k about 60fps
