This is still my favorite single monitor. I have a Sony FW900 CRT inbound to compare it to.

Very sleek, but like others said it looks very limited ergonomically (pan, tilt, swivel, etc).

Its a superslim edge lit monitor, for sure its gonna be a lottery when it comes to backlight bleeding/clouding issue. Though the vast majority dont care too much about it but I would also be interested to know. Might get this as my secondary 'smaller' monitor.

Mine arrived last friday.

No bleed , backlight or anything!

Diablo 3 in 3D looks awesome , it seems like the screen is 50Cm deep biggrin.gif
Tonight i'll be getting my Gigabyte 7970 windstorm , so i can get some decent FPS in Battlefield 3.

I love this screen , 120hz is the bomb!
3D is a very nice feature!
If your PC can take it.

Hey guys, I'm new here and i just bought this monitor. I must say, this one is a really good monitor. 120hz is truly amazing! Anyway i was trying a dead pixel test and all was working normally until in the blue picture part. There's a dead pixel (black color) on the right side. The thing is this dead pixel only appears in the blue picture. Any idea what it is? Or is it normal? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Need more details. It doesn't sound like a dead pixel if it's only noticeable in blue pictures. Never had that problem on my S23A950.

I just ignored it. It just really appears on blue color (I apologize if you got confused with picture and color). Anyway, I got another problem. frown.gif I cant seem to use my ps3 on this monitor using hdmi cable or dvi cable (hdmi to dvi) a message "check signal cable" always appears. I checked the cables and ps3 on the other monitor and tv and it works perfectly. I tried my hdmi cable to connect my pc to the monitor and it also didn't work through hdmi.

Should I buy a new cable? We have those $99 hdmi cables that they say it has 3d, 7.1 sound etc etc. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think all the hdmi cables are the same for ps3?
