READ THIS BEFORE & AFTER PURCHASE!

ASUS VS278Q-P Black 27" 1ms (GTG) Widescreen LCD/LED Monitor, 300 cd/m2 DCR 80,000,000:1, Dual Built-in Speakers, VESA Mountable, Extensive Connectivity, Dual HDMI/D-Sub/DisplayPort
ASUS VS278Q-P Black 27" 1ms (GTG) Widescreen LCD/LED Monitor, 300 cd/m2 DCR 80,000,000:1, Dual Built-in Speakers, VESA Mountable, Extensive Connectivity, Dual HDMI/D-Sub/DisplayPort

Pros: Great monitor, 1ms rate, flawless colors. Easy to Setup. For those who complained: you obviously know nothing about Up and Down buttons.. Quality seems a bit on the high end. (Plastic is plastic)

Cons: Before you complain about colors: If you have the Nvidia control panel on your PC, make sure you go to Display > Adjust desktop color settings > and select 'Digital Color Format' and select YCbCr444. Use this setting if you hooked up via HDMI-to-HDMI. You will be amazed at how much this makes a difference. If you hooked up a different way, go to start > search for 'Calibrate display color' and change it that way.

Overall Review: As I said previously, when I first bought this monitor and hooked it up I wanted to return it. The colors looked horrible. (Black was basically grey) Well, after fooling around it turned out to be the setting I mentioned in the cons. Fixed it right up! D If this is your issue don't bother changing all the settings on the monitor itself as they will only mask the true problem. Like I said, you will be amazed at how much better your monitor looks by one setting modification.

It's OKAY...

ONKYO HT-S3400 5.1 Home Theater System
ONKYO HT-S3400 5.1 Home Theater System

Pros: Price is great, easily hooked up (at least it was for me)

Cons: -Sound is relatively low, and your volume constantly needs adjusted depending on the input device. -After about almost a month my left channel is very, very static sounding. After changing some wires I realized it is not the speaker, but it is the receiver itself. Hopefully I'll be able to get this resolved.. :-\ -Subwoofer does not sound that great, and there is much distortion from the left and right front speakers.

Overall Review: For the price, it is not a bad system (when it is working) After doing some research I've realized that this specific model has many problems with the circuit board, as well as the input connections for Speakers A.

DO NOT BUY

Pros: Cheap, good amt of storage space.

Cons: Did not work. Clicked on arrival.

Overall Review: Don't buy HITACHI, stick to WD or Seagate. Buying hard drives in these times is completely unreliable.

Amazing LCD monitor!

Pros: No broken pixels on shipment, amazing video quality. Very happy with the results.

Cons: If your really into really high quality gaming, get a monitor with a 2 ms rating. Still, this monitor is not that bad for gaming, I have no problems with it.

Overall Review: Great monitor, price is decently low, great quality! I would recommend this product to anyone!
