[Monitor] Samsung CFG70, 144hz 24" Curved VA - $259 (289.99-30.99)

I wish they could adopt both a glossy and light matte option. Obviously the colors and contrast are interesting and needed(because we are really waiting for OLED - or Panasonic -high contrast- super ips), and the response times are an ever improving area.

The tint to the screen is kind of a preference, and you can mitigate it somewhat, but I would expect most people would prefer having no tint for strong blue and white contrast. I don't know the primary cause of the tint - if it has anything to do with the gamut/quantum dot, calibration, or simply the backlight leds.

The issue of G-Sync for me, is important. But I also think Nvidia's darkboost1/darkboost2/darkboost3 must be replaced by the 'black equalizer / black crush' function Samsung came up with.

The most important issue would be the fuzzy soft look to the screen. I'm sure it will be fixed, because I can't imagine it doing anything other than put this screen into a more niche category(which isn't exactly a bad thing, but it won't be a first choice).
