Despite the rocky road they had to trudge through, Dough (formerly Eve) actually released a very competitive 240 Hz QHD (alongside their 144 Hz UHD one) monitor that has hardware/native integer scaling.

And was never delivered to people that paid for it 2+ years ago.

TFTcentral went as far as to post a disclaimer about the Eve V/Dough in the news piece.

I myself made the mistake of pre-ordering the 1440p monitor from them and never getting a refund. Unfortunately there's also a lot more than just the reddit forums. There are articles from other sites such as the Verge that also talk about Eve Devices/Dough Tech incompetence. I mean even on their own discussion forums they have frustrated users. There are some links that I can send if anyone is interested in researching them too. At this point, I just advise any consumers to avoid purchasing from them or at least research what they might be getting themselves into.

These will sell. Glossy and no stand was a great decision. Pre order price is $350 cheaper than the matte coated LG version. Excellent if it all works as intended.

They probably will at pre order price, and then what? They've placed a product on the market they can't really compete with.

Company goes under poof warranty. And do consider the possibility this crowd funded thing is not as experienced as LG in all the technology around the panel.

Literally :laugh: I wasn't aware how corrupted they were until I actually cancelled my order in April. I questioned why it would take them more than 30 days to issue a refund while it only took them a day to take the money.

Yeah, I'm not going to defend the company for its well-documented shitty business practices, but I did try out the QHD 280Hz and it is really good for what its worth (better than the AW2723DF). Sadly, no other companies are integrating integer scaling which is why I am still interested in their products.

Isn't integer scaling in like all modern gpu drivers too though?

It is in general, but they all have their own limitations, so technically it is better to have the display handle the scaling than the source device. For example, if the source is device is an old school console (if you're using a plain HDMI converter) or a device that doesn't support/limits changing the resolution, the display can correct that and double (or triple, etc.) the pixels perfectly.
