VA +overdrive = ghosting.

I mean you choose your battles. Run it at 120hz, and you have a panel with no ghosting and twice the contrast as a comparable IPS and you wont have "purple haze".

At this point in the game there is so many settings you can make any IPS or VA look better(or worse) than any IPS or VA, around the same price point.

For me if if im going "cheap" im going IPS. If im going midrange im going VA(unless its that magic 27" 1440p ips panel that they have down to a science). If im going high end, then everyone starts using black magic and you have to review/forum bomb.

At the time of posting it was in stock, but still available to order click on Other sellers and Amazon will show with $299 price with 2-4 week backorder before shipping.

Wow, do not click on the big green "See Deal" button. Clicking on the smaller "smile" link to the left shows me the $299 price.

Yep Amazon makes it easi(er) for returns for sure vs other retailers out there, and it is also 30 days if there are any issues vs 14/15 days at other places.

FYI, this is a VA panel. I see many people on here saying to stay away from VA panels, because they tend to have ghosting. I'd be interested if anyone has experience with this symptom?

It's just a characteristic of VA panels.

I have a Samsung 27" va panel 1440p 144hz paired with a 3080. No ghosting issues. But doesn't mean they can't exist.

All VA panels have ghosting under the proper circumstances. It's inherant in the technology.

Wow this is really an attractive deal. I got the LG 35in ultra wide 100hz VA panel from Costco during black Friday for $350 but if I hadn't I'd pull the trigger on this.

Show me a "cheap" ips panel? VA is cheap.... IPS is midrange.
