Bang for the buck.

Like most other reviews, I have to agree that there is alot of value for the dollar. Wide format, bright-vivid coloring, and high resolution. I did have two bad pixels towards the top center of the screen, but I was able to "massage" one of them away and lessen the brightness of the other with just a little rubbing over the spot.
Having all the connectors and a wide, stable base is a nice feature as well. I plugged the speakers up as my center speakers on my sound card and they make a nice addition as well. I wouldn't have relied on them to be my primary speakers, but who buys an LCD for the speakers anyway? The reviews I read helped me make my decision about this monitor, and I wasn't disappointed. A quick update of my video card driver and the native resolution showed a sharp, clear image.

The two bad pixels were a bit of a bummer. But as I said in the "Pros", they are in an out of the way place and I was able to make one disappear and make the other of the two less significant. The only thing to be sure about with a monitor like this is the wide format compared to older CRT's...the way I look at it thought is now I can take advantage of side widgets where I didn't before with my old standby. So that is more of a "pro" than a "con", just understand there is a big difference in styling from square to wide formats.

While I was shopping monitors at Newegg and a few other places, Newegg ended up offering free shipping which helped me make the choice easier. Have done lots of business with Newegg over the years as a system-builder and always been pleased with quality, selection, service, price, and availability...you will be too.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Worked perfectly for 1 hour

The failure rate must be pretty low with so many positive reviews... and it looked great for an hour or so

...but then out of nowhere the monitor became extremely bright, and the response time of the pixels increased to about 5 seconds. it looks really cool, like an acid trip or something, but its impossible to use productively.

reseting factory defaults didnt fix it, so im assuming is some really funky failure. newegg is processing the rma, so im sure the return and replace with be quick and easy, but failed hardware is still inconvenient.
