Reviews

CNET Reviews - "The U2713HM is the perfect choice for those looking for a 27-inch extreme definition monitor with great ergonomic support, useful features, and wide range of connections. Also, games and movies look great on it."
TFT Central - "All in all we were impressed by the new 27" screen from Dell. It made a lot of positive improvements and offered the kind of all round performance you'd want from any screen. Certainly a very good new addition to the Dell range."
AnandTech - "Dell has a wonderful blend of features and performance in the U2713HM, and while not the value leader in 27" displays, this might be my favorite overall model in this category right now."
PRAD - "All in all, the U2713HM has no need to hide behind the highly praised U2711- the newcomer can match its performance in many areas. In terms of power consumption, it is clearly ahead thanks to its LED technology. Only for professional graphics editing outside of sRGB is the U2711 the better choice due to its more extensive colour space."

If you are unsure on whether you want to purchase this monitor I highly recommend you give these pages a read, specifically the TFT Central and PRAD reviews. Both go very in depth.

It is.
They are very good for gaming, very similar to the Asus PB278Q, ViewSonic VP2770 and other 1440p monitors.

Did you just get one? Impressions? Performance hit?

I've had mine for a couple of weeks now. It's absolutely amazing, everything I do is now improved but especially gaming. The colours and contrast are just miles ahead of any TN 1080p monitor, 1440p has nearly 80% more pixels than 1080p so the detail is incredible. The performance hit isn't too bad, I can still play most games at max settings.

haha at last we have a club

Looking good AndyM95. Love the fact you used a form to collect data. I know I have missed quiet a few on the 1440P forum. Going to add that tonight.

Yeah, I was surprised there wasn't one already. It's been out for a while.

Thanks! It makes it much easier than having to trawl through posts to find people, once it picks up I guess that could get tricky.

Good work on OP page Andy, glad to see you took the initiative to start the club.

Since I'm still new shopping for a monitor I've decided to give the U2713HM a try and compare it while under my 30 day window.

U2713HM incoming by Friday for $585 after shipping was a great deal. Hope I get lucky this time. I don't mind IPS glow just don't want any defects and if there is one or two it's out of middle area eyesite.

Hope you get a good one

My first had two bright spots and pretty bad backlight bleeding, Dell have a zero tolerance policy on bright spots so I got a replacement straight away. The one I have now is 100% perfect, not even any backlight bleed which is very rare. Chances are you will get some IPS glow in the bottom left but once you turn the brightness down to about 50% it is barely visible (default is 75% which is a bit too bright).

Since it hasn't come in yet, you should try and see if you can get it price matched to Dell's current deal.

It was $504 last night and it's apparently $540 now, but still a fantastic price.

Is any one running an 75 Hz refresh rate on the U2713HM?

How do you do that. I have seen someone in a different forum do that but am not sure how

If you go to your nvidia control panel, look under resolution. There you can create custom resolutions and refresh rates. Bump it up 5 at a time. When creating custom res, just change the refresh rate.

The image doesn't work, just use the in built image tool.
I'll add you but try and fix it

Edit: Works now!
