Still for that money I would expect no PWM at all.

Correction, I actually found 27" PLS based monitor with no PWM, but it's not really available in stores. It is the ViewSonic VP2770-LED, reviewed here: http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/viewsonic_vp2770-led.htm

Can you please point me reviews for CrossOver where I can see that no PWM is used. I'm interested to get one if it REALLY has no PWM.

Thread Starter 
PRAD has reviewed a Shmian, PWM is not an issue

http://www.prad.de/new/monitore/test/2012/test-shimian-qh270-teil7.html#Backlight

Overclock.ru says the same thing about the 27Q LED-P

http://www.overclockers.ru/lab/47343_4/Nahodka_dlya_ekonomnyh_entuziastov._Obzor_i_testirovanie_monitora_Crossover_27Q-LED.html

I have the 2720MDP and could not detect any flicker with my camera. the 2560x1440 Korean models all use the same panel as the ACD which (i'm not sure where) was also confirmed to be fine.

Got mine yesterday wheee.gif
This screen is huge, and beautiful.

Going to tweak it tonight.
What's the simplest/easiest way to test for dead pixels and bright/dark spots?

Open your eyelids and use the two ocular devices (eyes) behind them on either side of your nose.If you cant see dead pixels or dark bright spots then they are not really there LOL! Seriously best way to test for BLB is by using a black screen desktop background (loads on Google images) turning off the lights in the room and see what you notice.
