    Auria EQ276W review ($399 27" 2560x1440 IPS)

    I use DP only (mac) and have not had any issues except for the lack of color saturation (but I think its due to my profile) Am used to wide gamut from my HP 2475 so I find the colors a little washed out. Anyone has a good calibrated profile. Feel lazy to go buy a colorimeter and do the...

    Achieva Shimian QH270| $400 IPS 2560x1440 Korean Monitor

    Can vouch for the quality of the Auria. No BLB no dead pixels. Also has DP so I didnt waste 100 on my miniDP to duallink cable!!! With a 100 buck cable, the Catleaps dont look cheap. If I were to use it with my desktop only, its a super buy!

    Auria EQ276W review ($399 27" 2560x1440 IPS)

    I just got mine from Microcenter - $399 + tax + $17 shipping (our local Santa Clara just closed shop!) Havent done any detailed tests on it but its gorgeous. The seamless displayport connection with my macs is worth the extra I paid over a ebay Korean monitor. I kept going back and forth...

    Auria EQ276W review ($399 27" 2560x1440 IPS)

    Ordered this from MC. Their Santa Clara store closed recently so had to spend another 17 bucks for shipping. Hope I get a decent panel :) Anyone connected a Mac via Displayport

    27" 2560x1440 auria at microcenter

    Hmmm but the PCbank comes with only dual link DVI while this is multi input. 300 vs 400 .... for 100 extra its not too bad if one gets without dead pixels.

    Achieva Shimian QH270| $400 IPS 2560x1440 Korean Monitor

    If thats the case, why do the prices vary so much .... 290 to 400 for non pixel perfect non scaler monitors? For example I could buy a Potalion for 300 from Bcc or an Achieva from AW for 340 .... are they equivalent? BCC says unto 15 dead pixels and AW says unto 3 .... thats what made me think...

    Thanks! Anecdotally who provides better panels with less backlight bleed and less uniformity. AW claims their panels are A1 grade while say BCC claims A- .... trying to figure out if A1 is better than A- :)

    Hows the Potalion Pixel Perfect version? I just put in an offer (to BCC)

    Achieva Shimian QH270| $400 IPS 2560x1440 Korean Monitor

    From google translate it seems they were happy with the monitor. Is this a better buy than a Potalion version (bcc sells a perfect pixel of this for cheap)

    Achieva Shimian QH270| $400 IPS 2560x1440 Korean Monitor

    Should I pixel perfect monitors to ensure I can safely buy the 3yr square trade warranty? Ideally I would like to have the square trade warranty on these..... I see even the non pixel perfect monitors come with optional square trade coverage. I wonder if squaretrade will really cover. Anyone has...

    Achieva Shimian QH270| $400 IPS 2560x1440 Korean Monitor

    Trying to decide between a lite Achieva and a Potalion (from bigclothcraft) with pixel perfect Potalion for 340. Which one is better? I will use it with 1) macbook pro 2) linux desktop with nvidia GT520 card
