    Samsung 34" QD-OLED

    5120x2160@120/144hz would be lovely and still fit comfortably in HDMI 2.1 bandwidth.

    The 32 inch 4k IPS 144hz's...(Update - this party is started) (wait for it...)

    Anecdotally, ive been using OLEDs as main work monitors for the last 3 years and have yet to see any burn-in. The C1 gets about 10-12 hours of usage in desktop content, programming, JIRA dashboards and such, M-F and about 4 hrs on Saturday and Sunday. They have gotten to a spot where you can be...

    GTX470SLI Upgrade Time

    Hey folks, I've had a 470SLI setup for quite some time and would like to move on from the noise/heat and a single card option seems to match those requirements. I've been looking into replacement options and have narrowed it down to a 7970, gtx670, gtx680 (on sale) I run a dual monitor...

    Dell U2713HM

    I sent an email to them including my receipt from Dell. I didn't get a response back, but I'm guessing a few people here did the same. :) On a side note -- monitor is still going strong! The backlight haze has gone down even further after only a few days use. Still two pesky stuck pixels I...

    Dell U2713HM

    Set desktop to that exact color, left the window open with white background/black text, then checked it against the desktop after 25 minutes -- no ghosting/retention. This has actually happened a few times on my iPad with the Safari address bar, but nothing on the monitor.

    Dell U2713HM

    If I look at the monitor dead center in the dark, I see the slightest faint yellow glow emanating from the lower corner. No where near the pictures that some people have posted (even at 100 brightness) I did just test image retention for 25m on a white website w/ black text (massively.com)...

    Dell U2713HM

    Thanks for the link -- was using Photoshop full screen, but this is a lot more efficient. Went over the screen thoroughly in each color and found 3 additional -- 1 green pixel lower left corner noticeable on black 1 red about 4 in from green, noticeable on white 2 darker speck at top...

    Dell U2713HM

    Just received the monitor and am very impressed -- 0 backlight bleed issues (just typical IPS glow, no sign of yellow ugliness) and a single lifeless green pixel in the corner which im going to try to get out of there. Mfr date was November 2012

    Dell U2713HM

    Just called US Dell Small Business, and told them their Australian site had a 30% coupon. Advised the lady on the phone where to find it (u2371hm in Google will return the AU site at the top) and she obtained mgr approval within a few seconds. If people are having issues -- Call Small...

    Yup -- if you call and reference the 30% off coupon that's on the australian site, they will match it in US. Had them do this on Black Friday weekend, monitor price was $559 USD from Dell US. Monitor is getting delivered tonight -- hopefully no terrible bleed/crosshatch issues! Fingers...

    Unfortunately it looks like the deal has ended since it's now Friday in Australia. You may be able to call them and reference the coupon URL to see if they can make an exception as it's still Thursday in the states...

    Dell U2713HM

    Actually got the tracking information last night finally, scheduled to be here Monday! I was expecting it to be a much longer wait. I wasn't able to do the gift card coupon stacking, but I know the lady just matched the 30% off coupon and applied it to the US cost, so I'm assuming that's why...

    Dell U2713HM

    Initially spoke to Dell through online chat and was told they refuse to price match... So instead I called up Dell Small Business and had them pricematch their AU site -- http://accessories.ap.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=au&cs=audhs1&l=en&s=dhs&sku=210-40773&redirect=1 Ordered for...
