Refurbished meaning someone probably returned it for BLB or dead pixels.. no thanks.

I assume it's gone back up in price? I see $424 which only drops it to $344 after the discounts. Any other good deals worth using this discount on?

Fallout 4 is capped at 60 fps because of Bethesda's crap engine. You can unlock the framerate with a config change, but the physics are tied to the frame rate so the game will actually run faster if you go over 60 fps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4EHjFkVw-s You could try just...

They got a really good panel, though. If they all looked like that I don't think as many people would have issues with the monitor...

That was at 30. It does look a lot brighter than in your video. Not sure if that's just the camera or if it's caused by the BLB.

Yeah, it's pretty noticeable in any dark scenes in games. I haven't tried movies but I could see it being pretty distracting there as well. It amazes me that my 3 year old, $300 Korean 1440p IPS monitor has almost 0 backlight bleed and absolutely no yellow tint while $800 monitors can look like...

Not real happy with mine :( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xr_tJvr4UJU Left side is great, upper-right might be acceptable, but the bottom right is really bad.

Has Amazon ever had more of these in stock since the initial batch?

The stand is incredibly ugly but if their QC is better than ASUS it might be worth it.

$649 for a high quality 60Hz Dell 21:9 or $1299 for a questionable quality 100Hz Acer 21:9 with G-Sync... tough decision.

It does look good and sharp at 60hz, even at 2048x1536. I probably won't mess with it then, I didn't realize how hard it would be to get it back to its default setting if I ended up making it worse.. It looks great in games, which was my main goal :) I think modern versions of Windows render...

Thanks for the tips.. I tried dropping it down to 75Hz. There is a very minor improvement, but I'm not sure it's really worth the extra flicker. The sharpness also varies across the monitor. The center is very good, while the corners, especially the upper-left, are not as good. That may just be...

I just picked up one of the HP P1230s this evening. Games look great on it, though text on the desktop is slightly blurry. I've read that there is supposedly a knob on the side of the monitor that can be reached with a screw driver to adjust the focus, but I'm having trouble finding more...

Did you ever get a chance to mess with it and see if you were able to fix the colors? I'm looking at these same exact monitors. I'm leaning towards the HP as well, since it is new, and the Dell may have the increasing brightness issue.

I have 1 Pokemon Y download code that I received for registering my 3DS during Nintendo's promotion last month. Asking $25 through PayPal or Amazon Payments. I would like to see either your Heatware or eBay feedback, since this is a digital item. My Heatware and eBay feedback
