Are these things designed by a 15 year old? The only things missing are a RGB skull on the stand and a name like "GENOCIDE".

I'm amazed their is not an RGB projector in the back to display a color changing dragon on the wall.

No, but they're designed for 15 year olds...

Maybe if you buy one this year, by 2020 you could actually get your hands on an AMD GPU that can play games at 144 FPS!

APUs can always play games at 144 FPS. It just must not be current or last generation ones.

Sttm....
too bad monitor refresh rate.. and FPS.. are not related.... even my radeon 7970 can do 144 fps in a few games.. Starcraft 2 starts out at 150+ but as the game progresses... drops to about 70-80... my 1060.. does 144 fps easy in sc2.. and WoW.. and my refresh rate is " only " 60 hz .....

The specs of the CQ model looks pretty nice (never mind the gamer styling and LEDs), but after using WQHD on my 25" DELL I would not want to go back to lower PPI.

I'm surprised that with a new product launch in 2018, they couldn't at least had USB 3.0 ports (3.1 Gen2 hub would be even better).
