I have a Samsung 27" IPS and love it. I would like something like what whisker mentioned, but for now, I'm stuck with a sort of crappy HP 19". I should turn that vertical though, being that it's 1440, same as vertical on the 27". Hmm...
I remember seeing a curved monitor by Alienware that always looked good, not really sure if they were ever actually for sale though.Show Image(http://www.fahad.com/pics/alienware_curved_monitor.jpg)
Not really sure about the bezels, maybe they know there are more TV sales and they need to be more stylish?
Anything over 24" I have to move my eyes side to side to see the whole screen so it's a lot more straining.
If you're playing an FPS, you can lock your eyes on your sights and still see the screen edge to edge. Pretty sure that's what he's talking about.
Dream? Well then 30" IPS LED at 120hz and a nice brushed metal case

With very low input lag. That sounds about perfect.

With IPS it doesn't matter as much. My IPS is 6ms G2G and I have no ghosting what so ever

Going to pick up an IPS in the very near future. Are you currently using the U2410 or something else? You also said you play a lot of FPS and they do fine with those? I've done a ton of research and have it narrowed down, but am always to curious to hear more.
take a look at the new ASUS PA249Q thats coming in march should be your best option.Dream? Well then 30" IPS LED at 120hz and a nice brushed metal case

Yup using U2410 right now. I play a lot of FPS, competitive even (made top 16 in a BF3 cash tournament).
If I were to buy another monitor right now it would be: 24", IPS, and 16:10 because they are the 3 most important things I look for in a monitor

you all have tiny monitors.
just hooked up my pc to my 60" led. 1080p, 120Hz.
never mind me wanting one of the 1440 or 1600p ips panels, too
4k is over blown and right now overpriced.

Edit: 1080 Heihgt... lol :3
Im just saying that 4000p would be way more impressive than 4k...
why vu still using DVI? Display port is where its at!Im just saying that 4000p would be way more impressive than 4k...
4000p? for 16:10, that's 25.6 megapixels.
we'd need at least 3 Dual link dvi for that at 8bit, but probably more

Not really need any big leap on hardware to drive a 4K monitor. On recent CES2013, Nvidia just demo their Tegra4 (a mobile chip) drive a 4K TV when introduce their Project Shield.may be able to drive a tv but what about decoding and rendering 4k content at properbitrates and frame rates.
That is only mobile chip. Imagine a dedicated VGA card will do. Driving multiple 4K display? Possible
Personally I am dreading 4K right now. I think it's too early to change standard already. Yes I am aware how much higher quality it is.same problem with anime my friend, except animes probably a bit better off because of the japanese and they being more into the forefront of tech than the US.
Why I don't like it... first, there is a huge problem with content availability. There are hundreds of thousands of movies that still have not made it to 720 or 1080, but for that matter there are loads that were never even released on dvd either (some of the best 80's trash sci-fi / horror will be lost to younger generations forever as it has not been released since VHS/LD a real shame). Now think about how poor 480 content looks like on 1080 display, now think about it on 4K it becomes the size of a postage stamp and when you full screen it I can't even image how awful that will be. 720 becomes as bad as 480 is now, and 1080 will only be marginally better. I mean, I don't even buy movies at all and I am still annoyed with this.
Next we come to PC use, gpu are not powerful enough to drive that high res for gaming at any reasonable quality level with a good frame rate. You would need power of like quad sli 680 to even attempt it for something demanding.
PA248Q used a ****ty pannel worse than the PA238Q, the PA249Q is their fix for that and the replacement for the PA246Q because it will be 10bit and have wide gammut led backlighting instead of ccfl.take a look at the new ASUS PA249Q thats coming in march should be your best option.
I have the ASUS PA248Q, what's the difference between it and the new ASUS PA249Q?
I'm loving the 16:10 aspect ratio, IPS and the color accuracy that comes with factory calibration.
Everything has to start somewhere. I am curious to watch the progression of 4k monitors and televisions and see where they end up.my guess not anywhere real fast especially sice more people never embraced the BD.

BD? And I was looking at the PA249Q. Looks pretty nice, I haven't had a 16:10 in a while.
That is what I thought you meant, just wanted to check. Will have to keep an eye out then and do my research when they actually come out!the 249 is slated for march, cant wait!
I use two 23 inch monitors right now. I would ideally like to have 3 27'' monitors. All LED, 1080p. Would be a little bit more pricy than what i have right now though. Plus, i'd have to sell my current monitors of course though.just from experience at 27in 1080p up close (computer working distance) looks like poo
Really? Thats sad :/ so 23 is about where i should stay then eh?I use two 23 inch monitors right now. I would ideally like to have 3 27'' monitors. All LED, 1080p.

yes 23 for 1080 and 24 for 1200 and personally i think 1440 is more suited to 29in but that doest exist but 1600 for 30in does :DReally?

My dream monitor would be IPS panel with 0 input lagg, 0 response time and 120 hz refresh rate!
Unfortunately closest thing to things specified above and my budget is eizo foris fs2333...
approximate single direction resolution. How many pixels it's got. Typical 4k resolutions mentioned have been 3840x2160, 4096x2160, 4096x3072idk if 4k is defined... I know cinematic 4k is (doesnt remember what that res is off hand) but I doubt that thats what is going to make it into homes as its not 16:9.
My roommate has a $1200 monitor and frankly I don't see much of a difference between that and my $400 one. Monitors are the one thing I just don't get excited about, the quality between something that costs $1000 more just seems negligible. And these 4k UHD monitors, seriously? Who would ever need that? Just another meaningless technology d!*k measuring contest.4k is actually a big step forward the problem I see with it currently though is distrobution due to the large file size.
Yes, it's good. I had one for a few years. Paid 65 USD in 2005, to replace a 19" LCD which sucked bad in comparison. Sold it for 25 USD in 2007 to a co-worker. Does 1600x1200 at about 85Hz just fine; can theoretically do 2048x1536 at 60Hz. In the worst case, a TV/monitor repair shop should be able to address anything faulty about it. Sony has a tendency to always build in some sort of long-term flaw to everything they make.
Actually, CRT quality plummeted in the last few years of their existence-- the only people buying CRTs-- aside from Eizos and similar niche-market premium products-- were the people making really cheap PC bundles with the cheapest screen you can get.
I own my dream monitor! Dell u3011, so nice....
I cant imagine having anything sharper than this, I certainly wouldnt be willing to pay for it. 2560x1440 is all I'll ever need.Have you tried the retina displays? It certainly raises the bar on sharpness.
If I remember correctly from work, Cinematic 4K is defined as being a frame that fits as much as possible within 4096 × 2160. In other words, either the width is 4096 or the height is 2160 and you can have black bars on the top and bottom or on the left and right depending on the aspect ratio.approximate single direction resolution.

Just bought a korean IPS Crossover 27Q
This is the best monitor.

xD Lovin' that design Davin. Was that a production model?
I'm sure they were mega discounted before they were discontinued by Dell but I didn't pick one up due to the unfavourable reviews + they are not friendly for dual screen
Damn the specs, I've always loved this monitorShow Image(http://www.slipperybrick.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/dell-crystal-display.jpg)
I used to have a PLP: 20" 1200x1600 & 2560x1600 & 1200x1600 setup. It was pretty cool to have but it took up some much freaking space and used so much power. I decided to sell it because of the lack of gaming support. So I downsized to a single Asus lightboost hack 24" monitor and a standing desk. The colors & view angle suck compared to my Dell U3011, but I feel Like my room doubled in size.
