Pros: It isn't a TN panel Stand is very nice, gotta tilt a bit before rotate but it's pretty smooth Screen doesn't tear like my previous TN panel (video/window dragging/auto scrolling)

Cons: Got one with a single dead [doesn't light] pixel, however it's off to the side usually where UI elements are and same goes for portrait. Matte finish coating*

Overall Review: I play pinball games in portrait mode and there's very minimal contrast shifting and I don't perceive any latency difference between this and a TN panel I had before. The tables I had played for dozens of hours previously looked and played great on this IPS panel. It's not documented anywhere but in portrait you can still tilt the screen which was a bonus for me, it will tilt far enough to clear the stand and you can lower the monitor even further if it's near a ledge. *as my second LCD monitor ever and first serious monitor, I find solid colors show off the coatings imperfections. If you drag a window with a solid color around and you'll notice the little noise on the screen doesn't follow the image.. only bothers me a little when cleaning/manipulating images. Not sure if this is just a LCD technology limitation or the coating.

Pros: Fits the Antec P182 case. Installation wasn't too bad, AM3 socket* Installed onto a M4A785-M motherboard without obstructing ram installation**

Cons: Included fan was loud*** but to be expected of a ~1400 RPM fan(everest/speedfan readings)

Overall Review: *Leave the heatsink upside down (mounting-clips installed) and gently set your motherboard on top, then proceed with backplate install. **Fan installation may obstruct ram slots but the fan-clips can slide up/down the tower giving you clearance, provided your ram only has heat spreaders. ***Louder compared to a fan I replaced it with, which was slower in RPM (~1050). Temps are ~20c on an Athlon II X2 245 with regular usage, no overclocking.
