The revision number and manufacturing date will be on the back of the panel. It might not be a big deal though. I mean, the most likely explanation in my case is that I was just unlucky and received two bad monitors. I'm sure yours will be fine. It really is a fantastic monitor.

On the back near the serial number and service tag (applicable only to 27" and up). The later the revision, the better. Edit: beaten. Though my experience with customer service has been decidedly different. I had to replace my U2412M three times and I'm about to receive my fifth U2713HM sometime next week. All the previous ones have been worse than the last in one way or another and had no business being categorized as certified factory refurbs.

Oh okay, cool. This is the one I ordered so maybe it's not even applicable: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005JN9310 Really curious to how my Sceptre Naga II will look next to it. If it's not terrible it'll be really nice to have my audio production software on one and the script on the other.

So I'm building a new PC with a GTX 770 GFX card, but I'm torn on the monitor side. Should I get one Dell U2713HM or two Dell U2412M?

Guess what leaked. Dell U2414Q - 24" IPS 4K monitor with wide-gamut support to 99% AdobeRGB.

A 24" 4k monitor seems weird. Won't there be problems with text/UI size?

Could be more useful for Macs which have good support for high DPI displays already.

Dell Ultra Sharp U2412M or XL2420TE for the PS4/Computer? Or any other recommendations. I would like a 1440p but my card and ps4 wouldnt be able to take advantage of it. Thoughts?

# ? Dec 1, 2013 23:33 |

BenQ XL2420TE is TN. gently caress a TN. It might be useful if you're doing 120Hz but if your card can't do 1440p it isn't up for 120Hz 1080p either. The U2412M is a bad fit for game consoles because it doesn't have either a source-aspect or 16:9 ratio option so anything will be stretched an extra 11% vertically (this is way more noticeable than it sounds). U2312HM is native 1080p rather than 1920x1200, but otherwise pretty much a U2412M, and usually right around (and frequently under) 200 bucks. EDIT: You'll need to arrange alternate sound output for your PS4 (probably a powered TOSLINK to RCA and/or TRS converter) - and an HDMI or DVI switch if your computer isn't native DisplayPort (because VGA is distasteful, and often not even converter-available on this year's video cards) - but it's worth a shot. dont be mean to me fucked around with this message at 01:00 on Dec 2, 2013 |

On a technical level, what prevents IPS screens from commonly having refresh above 60hz? I have a $90 Dell S-series IPS and managed to use the Nvidia control panel to clock it to 66hz before it said no mas. Are cookie cutter 120hz on the horizon?

The ASUS PA248Q would be a better option than the U2412M (as it has 1:1 mode), and can often be found for around the same price in US.

Roughly how much do you have to spend to get a card/s that'll be able to take advantage and do justice to a 4k monitor at the moment? And how long do you guys think it'll be before that sort of tech will be "affordable?" I just got a 290 on the recommendation of this thread, and I'm kind of curious as to whether it'd be worth while upgrading my monitor, or leaving it till next time around. I'm not exactly sure what the 290 is capable of powering above 1980x1080 to be honest.

The R9-290/290X is the best 4K res card going. It still takes two in CrossFire to really run things at good detail settings, though.

Factory Factory posted:The R9-290/290X is the best 4K res card going. It still takes two in CrossFire to really run things at good detail settings, though. Cool. What sort of power would I need to run two of those in crossfire? I managed to pick up a Seasonic SS-760 X2 cheap with the 290, but I'm not quite sure whether that alone would do the trick. Also, I've got an ASUS PZ77-M mobo, I'm guessing I'd have to upgrade there to crossfire two 290s, right? Anything in particular you'd reccomend?

No motherboard upgrade required, and the PSU *should* handle the load if the rest of your system is fairly standard and you don't overclock the cards much.

Good news, thanks a lot man. There has to be some sort of bottleneck in my system though, how about my i5 3570K? It just feels too perfect to be able to just make that big of a jump that easily. Whoops ok, so I forgot for a second that I'm not in the GPU thread. What do you guys recommend in the way of a 4k monitor at the moment and do we know of any decent deals going on tomorrow?

Your system is maybe a year old. You want bad news? How about "There are no reasonably priced 60 Hz 4K monitors on the market yet." Maybe the U2414Q will change that, but for now, you've got 30 Hz 4K TVs from Seiki and not much else for under two grand.

I get the sense that everyone is just waiting for Apple to act on marketing 4k monitors to consumers so they don't have to.

More in disbelief that all the news is so good. I guess the silver lining of that "bad news" is that my wallet gets a break for a while. Thanks for all the info though.

Largely for the amount of limited real, physical work space I have. I maxed out at two 24inches, and i'm areosnapping and taking advantage of software (multi-virtual desktops) as much as I can to get enough desktop in. This wouldn't be for my home.

Looking to get a new monitor for my father (so no games etc, just text and a bit of video editing) with a $400-500 budget (in Norway, so prices are slightly higher than US). He'd like a 27" screen, but it seems the good ones are quite a bit more expensive than that. Can anyone recommend a decent 27" or good 24" for under $500? I'm guessing it has to be IPS? The computer is a few years old, but since he's not going to be doing any gaming, it can hopefully handle the higher resolution.

Any 27" you get will be 1920x1080 and depending on his eye sight may be awesome or terrible (awesome if he has crappyish eye sight, as the pixels will be bigger, but poo poo if he has good eye sight, as they will be bigger). If a 27" isn't what you want then I'd look to a Dell U2412M or ASUS PB248Q

Dell europe have the new P2314H down to £153 which makes it comparable in price to the u2312. There aren't any good comparisons between the two yet, and TFTCentral haven't reviewed the p23 but they have done the p24 ( http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/dell_p2414h.htm ). I think the p2314h and u2312 should be roughly comparable, though we don't get the ridiculously cheap cost for both that customers in the US have. http://accessories.euro.dell.com/sn...k=baynoteSearch

Ok, thanks. Might want to get a "bad" 27" then, as his eyesight isn't that good. What 27" 1920x1080 is decent? Asus 27" LED MX279H maybe?

Found this LG 27EA33V for $190 on NewEgg. It's 27", but 1920x1080; I've seen some comments on the past pages about a monitor that size at 1080p instead of 1440p looks terrible. How terrible would this look, just a bit less nice than actual 1440p on that sized monitor, or is it going to make video games I play look noticeably worse? I'm not particularly concerned about the panel type, but it seemed to be one of the better priced monitors of that size on NewEgg even if it claims to be IPS instead of TN.
