If you are in the U.S. and will be using one of the eBay sellers. You can get the eBay Square Trade 3 years warranty for $50. I did that with my Q270.

I would confirm with squartrade they will cover it. Read a review about squartrade that someone who bought a phone that was an international device that squartrade didn't warranty it since it wasn't designed for use in the us market and they refunded his $50. Basically these monitors fall into that description. So either confirm they will cover you or ask for your money back

FYI my Shimian was declared for $190 when it was shipped to me. That sounds about right. I imagine it does cost $100+ for international FedEx.

Nvidia Control Panel-->Change Resolution-->Customize-->Create Custom Resolution. Up the hz 1-2 notches at a time and hit Test. If the screen doesn't come on in 2-3 seconds hit escape and go down a notch. Find the highest you can go. Leave all the other settings as they are.

Thanks.

I went right for 75Hz, no go lol.

I'll keep trying smile.gif

First impressions of the Q270?

Screen is gorgeous, 1440p is incredible, I have very little bleeding (that i notice). No dead pixels, stand (as others have said it) is very wobbly -- but I have a sturdy desk. My only problem was that the factory brightness was very low, and doesn't seem to increase much on the monitor control panel.

I went into NV Control panel and adjusted the brightness only, left everything else at default. Seems to be better now.

The screen I got has no AG coating, and if I have my blinds open I can actually see my own reflection while playing COD, LOL.

Great monitor though. Time for SLI smile.gif

Unless you have a 2B, you'll only get to 67hz or 65hz depending on your particular monitor.
