just received my s23a750d today and all I can say is drool.gif coming from an old benq 22" 1680x1050 monitor to this is obviously night and day. it was an open box item but I don't see anything wrong with it thus far. I left the settings to default for the time being (kind of bright) but will mess with them later. Oh and I forgot to get a mini dp to dp cable so I will have to wait until tomorrow to try out 120hz.

Edit: Spoke to soon on the no issues from open box item. The top right corner is cracked and there is slight backlight bleeding on the sides. I got it for $270 so I might just bite the bullet and keep it. will try 120hz out tomorrow.

I'm looking to buy a 23-27 inch 120Hz LED MONITOR

What's the SA950 like?,
*the stand looks very weird being on the right side! (compared to being in the middle)


I'm upgrading from a 24lich BenQ G2400WD (which is on its way out)...

It is weird! And it bugged me for the first few days. But last night I got a chance to organize a few things and found the flat back stand is wide enough to hold my LED lamp and the hole is tall enough to allow me to easily switch it on and off. I store the 3D glasses and some other trinkets too. It's growing on me.

At 27" and being a TN watching a movie in my "slouching chair" really sucks. I'm too low and the entire top 2/3rd turns black. Even when sitting in front, I have to raise my chair and use an ottoman. It would be perfect if I could get the bezel to sit an inch off the table. The moment a display that looks this good (ultraclear/colors/motion) w/ a proper stand comes out, I'll be dumping it stat!

Is it just me or do these monitors go dim in 3D even though it reports 100% brightness?

Here is a small update on my S27A750D.

*I meant A750d but the edit button doesn't work properly.

Using a mini to full displayport adapter makes the monitor randomly loose signal though it's not a common occurrence. I still haven't been able to enable frame sequential 3d through Tridef 3d and right now it won't even install properly. The other 3d driver available, iz3d has image doubling problems so that is a no go as well. However 3d bluray movies work very well.

Overall I'm still very happy with the monitor.

Group,
Had a new issue today with my S27A750D??, BluRay 3d player, or video card. I was watching "Hugo" in bluray 3d on my computer and the picture was breaking up into little squares every 5 seconds or so. The rest of my BluRay movies play on the computer just great with no issues. I played the movie over the hdmi with my video player hooked up to the hdmi port on the monitor and it was normal (very minor ghosting). I am using a PC with a i7-950 processor and XFX6790 VIDEO CARD (1 gig).

Anybody have an idea whats happening and a fix????

Thanks,
Jeff

Thanks,
After relooking at several other 3d bluray disks that were normal I returned the disk. I want to say that after having this monitor (S27A750D) for a while now IT IS AWESOME!!!!!!

On the Audio side:
From the audio port on the back of the monitor what type of speakers will it run?? 2.1, 5.1, 7.1, Stereo only. Computer control panel says High Def.
The center channel on a movie playback is weak.
None of the effects heard from the monitor port, that are awesome on my other 5.1 headphones from computer backpanel.

I am an Audio noob so any help would be appreciated.

Jeff

I do love this monitor for its size and design, though I miss the pure bright whites I got with my PX2370 over the slightly yellow whites on this.

Anyhow just a question, I am attempting to use the 3d glasses but am having no luck.
They are sync'd with the monitor and turn on fine (lens go slightly darker), however when I try to view 3d content (Games using SBS or just random things in 2D->3D) then the goggles they do nothing.
I can look through them or take them off and the picture still has the exact same amount of cross-talking.

Would this suggest I have got a dud monitor or glasses? Or am I simply forgetting something?
Thank-you for any advice you can provide ^_^

Also I am able to see 3D content on the 3d samsung TV outside with its sets of glasses so I know I am able to view 3D content frown.gif

Sometimes I have to hit the power button on my glasses after it is sync'd to see 3d. If you just touch it, it switches in and out of 3d.
