    Samsung S27A950D 120Hz

    I'm loving mine as well. The only issue I had was getting one without any dead pixels. I got it shipped with a zero dead pixel policy and I'm on my 3rd one right now. Each one I've received has had a dead pixel.. just one too lol. The last one I received is in the very bottom right corner...

    ASUS VG278H - The weirdest backlight bleeding I ever saw

    I know the 950's HDMI port is 1.4. I originally went with the ASUS myself for the VESA, I wasn't sure how this stand was going to work for me on the Samsung, but I figured I'd get a riser if it was a problem. The thing that is truly amazing is there 'magic' viewing angle adjustment. You can...

    ASUS VG278H - The weirdest backlight bleeding I ever saw

    There is no VESA on the 950 and the base certainly doesn't come off. I believe most of the electronics are down below. Probably a big reason the panel itself is thinner than a penny ;) The 750 I believe has the VESA but I'm not sure if that's a 9 series or not. The 750 only has display port...

    ASUS VG278H - The weirdest backlight bleeding I ever saw

    If you roll the dice let us know. I gave up on ASUS and bought a Samsung S27A950D. Quite honestly if VESA or Nvidia 3d 2 aren't your concern this monitor blows the ASUS away for 2d, colour and response. I'm happy I made the switch. For the amount I actually use 3d, I'm sure the proprietary...

    That explains the dead pixel on my first one!! :D

    Samsung S27A950D 120Hz

    On the base of my 950D it says "9" series which is apparently their flagship line. I'm not sure if the 750 means "7" series or what that would translate into construction/component wise from Samsung.

    Samsung S27A950D 120Hz

    Yes, I got mine from NCIX for 599, but I found the price through shopbot.ca, or else they are still listed as full price on their site!

    Samsung S27A950D 120Hz

    ...which reminds me. Mine arrived this morning. Colors are awesome. Minimal backlight bleed if any. Refresh and response is amazing. Definitely better than the Asus I recently had. The one bummer is it came with 1 dead pixel in the upper right. It's in a spot where I wouldn't see it...

    Samsung S27A950D 120Hz

    Yes I'm looking at one right now. 2d/3d 120hz over DVI. It works over display port as well.

    ASUS VG278H - The weirdest backlight bleeding I ever saw

    Hopefully it stays that way. Mine looked perfect on day 1. By day 3.. race track time!

    Samsung S27A950D 120Hz

    It's a bandwidth issue I believe given 1080p@120hz

    Samsung S27A950D 120Hz

    Heh sounds like you've tried almost everyone out there! =) I'm hoping it'll work out well for 2d gaming. *fingers crossed*

    Samsung S27A950D 120Hz

    I'm in Canada so I'm sure it's a U.S. unit. Either way, it's luck of the draw sometimes. I paid the 30 bucks just not to deal with it should I get dead pixels. At least this way I know I'll get a perfect monitor hassle free. Looking forward to this.

    Samsung S27A950D 120Hz

    Ya I'm ordering one right now. I"m also doing it online so I'm getting the no dead pixel coverage for piece of mind. I don't want another fiasco like I had trying to return that garbage Asus VG278H

    Samsung S27A950D 120Hz

    After returning my Asus for the halo issue, I'm seriously considering one of these. I'm more interested in 2d than 3d and this seems to be the best thing going right now in a 27 inch format? I normally only buy VESA monitors but I think I could live without it and just get a small riser for...
