Question 1

Does this come with a display port or is separate?

Accepted Answer

If you mean a display port cable, yes mine came a dual link DVI and a display port cable in the box.

Question 2

I see this monitor looks like it pivots but does it slide up or down?

Accepted Answer

It does not slide up or down, but it does tilt on its pedestal. If you need height adjustment you may need to consider a separate monitor arm with the compatible VESA mount.

Question 3

Vesa mount?

Accepted Answer

Yep, 5th picture you can see the VESA mount holes, and in the Specifications page you can see that it is compatable with 100mm X 100mm VESA mounts

Question 4

Please , Does anyone have  Ideas on how to get this looking Crisp and not Blurry / Fuzzy   on 1080p , ( 1920 * 1080 )  ?

Have not tried it on 1440p yet

Accepted Answer

Why are you running it at that resolution? You should be running it native resolution at 1440p. Anything else will scale oddly. If you want the interface to look OK at a larger size, try 125% or 150% in Windows. If you have trouble with text, consider turning off anti-alias in the driver. There are lots of gotchas running 2K & 4K monitors and it can be a challenge getting everything balanced out. (Especially if you use Adobe CS6 or lower products.)

Question 5

I'm not a gamer, but am looking for a good/ decent monitor for photo work in Photoshop and Lightroom that gives accurate color and won't bug my eyes after hours looking at the screen. I have an older Velocity Micro Pc with a first generation I7 (I know it's a dinosaur and I'm currently looking to upgrade- however my laptop is almost new and I could maybe use this monitor for it). This seems like a great price and great reviews for you gamers. Most of my fellow photographers use an IPS desplay, but this seems to be a good bang for the buck. What do you guys think? Suggestions? Thanks!!!

Accepted Answer

An IPS will definitely give you more accurate colors if you mostly do photography. That being said, this is a great monitor that I recently upgraded to. You do need to be in front of the screen at the right angle for colors to be great, but if you always use it at the same desk then it is easy to work with. The monitor is a lot of bang for your buck if you don't mind the viewing angles. And the horizontal viewing is actually very good for a TN.

Question 6

can this monitor run 1080p at more than 60hz?

Accepted Answer

TL;DR yes but not with vsync on.

Just to be able to verify this, i switched Overwatch to 1080p with vsync turned on and it still ran at 60 fps. I run without vsync for most games and i can confirm that i never notice any screen tear while running between 70hz-140hz. Hope that answers your question! :)

Question 7

Does the HDMI port display 1440p?

Accepted Answer

Yes - been running 2560x1440 just fine! I have heard of some HDMI cables not working but if that happens try a different cable.

Question 8

Trying to decide between this and the other K272HUL ($50 more), which seems to be nearly the same but it's display is IPS and it's response time is 4ms not 1ms. How much of a difference do those 3 milliseconds make, and how much of a difference does the TN display make in color? I do gaming but also a lot of photo editing, so color is very important to me.

Accepted Answer

IPS does give superior blacks and has way better viewing angles, however a properly calibrated TN panel can look almost as good.  The 3ms isint gamebreaking, and that alone would not stop me from choosing a monitor - theres a small difference but honestly you prob wouldnt notice much.  IPS is a superior panel for color and contrast.  Is it worth 50 bucks...sure.  Hope that helps

Question 9

Is this an IPS display? The internet says yes, but Newegg doesn't have it labelled, which could account for the very low price.

Accepted Answer

There are two models of the K272HUL.  The bmiidp has an IPS screen, and the ebmidpx has a TN.

Question 10

Is this the model with the thin bezel or the thick plastic bezel?

Accepted Answer

Thin (maybe 1/16"?) on top and sides, thicker on bottom. Screen does not go all the way to the bezel, however, it's maybe 1/8" shy.
