    Has anyone tried aftermarket AG films?

    I find your post ironic. The very reason I asked my question in the first place is because of the brave new world we are experiencing with this new crop of Korean monitors that has shown up. All of them have glossy screens. So your assertion that "the current market is not helping at all the...

    Has anyone tried aftermarket AG films?

    Hey, thanks for replying. In fact I do have a IC fab in my basement.... NOT. Wondering if you could go into more detail regarding the other response. You say, "everything displayed on the screen became more clear". By that you probably mean that it was an improvement over the intrusive AG...

    Has anyone tried aftermarket AG films?

    Let me state right away that I am NOT looking to ignite a "glossy vs. matte" debate. There are those of us for which a glossy screen is a complete show-stopper. Those of you who like your glossy screens may continue to enjoy them, and not post in this thread unless you have something to add...

    Achieva Shimian QH270| $400 IPS 2560x1440 Korean Monitor

    Uhh, sorry, no, the sort of ignorance you display is, I'm afraid, unforgivable. "No expertise"? Seriously? Do you think Chinese and North Korean companies invented LCD panels? Perhaps you also think that Malaysian scientists invented the CPU, since that's where Intel's chips are made. I...

    Achieva Shimian QH270| $400 IPS 2560x1440 Korean Monitor

    I hear ya. I looked into aftermarket AG films for that very reason. But they are pricey, and give you no real way to assess what "less", "more", and "won't reflect direct sunlight" actually give you. Besides, imagine explaining to the wife how you spent $325 on a snazzy new monitor and, upon...

    Achieva Shimian QH270| $400 IPS 2560x1440 Korean Monitor

    Well that's rather uncanny. I have the very same Soyo D6, and it's developing an oh-so-subtle backlight flicker from time to time that I expect to get worse over time. I agree with you on the AG of this monitor, it's flawless. It frustrates me to no end that I cannot buy another panel just...

    Achieva Shimian QH270| $400 IPS 2560x1440 Korean Monitor

    Do any of the "new crop" of monitors (those that didn't seem to exist when this thread got started like the FSM and the Qnix, Potalion, and Imon) have AG? The Davi that was confirmed to have AG is long gone. The FSM here seems to have photos that show an AG coating, but then it also claims...

    Antec Case & PSU Combo Lucky Draw!!!!!

    1) No stupid door, 2) No stupid window. Okay, it looks like maybe the 280 has a stupid door, but three out of four ain't bad.

    Achieva Shimian QH270| $400 IPS 2560x1440 Korean Monitor

    Well, looks like those of us that were holding out for a matte screen are screwed. The Davi's have shot up to $1k+.
