Excellent

YAMAKASI 301 SPARTA 30" LCD S-IPS QHD 2560x1600 16:10 DVI (Dual Link) Matte Screen 30 inch PC Monitor
YAMAKASI 301 SPARTA 30" LCD S-IPS QHD 2560x1600 16:10 DVI (Dual Link) Matte Screen 30 inch PC Monitor

Pros: Clear high res display, good colors, very bright

Cons: May be too large for some. They get pretty warm, and since I have 3 of them they can generate a decent amount of heat. Not enough to knock off an egg though.

Overall Review: I'm a software developer, and I bought three of these along with a workstation that I put together. Ordered it all from Newegg, and these monitors got in only one day after the rest of the components. Not a single dead pixel on all three of the monitors. If you're considering buying one of these, do it. I've seen the mac displays, and a buddy of mine bought a 30" QHD monitor for twice the price, and these displays are just as good. I believe it has an LG panel in it, which is nice. For the price, these displays cannot be beat. We'll see if they stand the test of time, but so far so good.

Fantastic Case

Pros: Great build quality, excellent airflow, pretty quiet, fan filters, nice brushed finish

Cons: None

Overall Review: It took me awhile to realize I had to take the top of the case off to put the power supply in. So if you get this case, don't try to put the power supply in from the inside of the case. You have to take the top off and the power supply drops right in. Which is nice, because the fan slot on the top of the case is for the power supply fan, so it keeps the airflow for the power supply separate from the rest of the case.

Solid little card

Pros: Price to performance, two dual link dvi ports.

Cons: The fan is a bit noisy even when the temps are low. That's why I knocked off an egg.

Overall Review: I have these driving some QHD displays (2560x1600) and they're pretty smooth. Nothing to complain about. I'm a software developer, and for my needs they're great. I'm not gaming with then, but I imagine they could handle some light gaming.
