    27" Dell P2715 4k monitor. $450.

    Thanks for this -- I work remotely and am back home for the holidays. I decided to order this from amazon as a temporary work display since the only monitor at my disposal is 1440x900. Hopefully the ppi won't be too high to work comfortably at 100% scaling. I haven't used a 4k monitor below...

    Google Announces 4th Quarter And Fiscal Year 2014 Results

    Because of efficient markets, the assumption is that the expected earnings are already priced into the stock. Of course, if those expected earnings are not met, prices will drop to reflect the actual earnings release.

    Philips BDM4065UC - 40" 4K 60Hz monitor thread

    Yeah - it's a little strange if you're looking at it from a single system perspective or exclusively for gaming/media. 3x40" in the corner would be amazing. However, these are connected to 2 completely different systems and are needed for 2 completely different reasons. It's difficult to...

    Philips BDM4065UC - 40" 4K 60Hz monitor thread

    These phone pics will not do the immensity of these monitors justice - my apologies. For now, I don't have the stands, desk space, or cables to arrange these any other way. 2x Philips 40" on the outside. 1x Crossover 27" in middle. The 2 displays on the right are running off of...

    Philips BDM4065UC - 40" 4K 60Hz monitor thread

    This is part of my setup, as a comparison between the 40" Philips and a 27" Crossover. Pardon the focus/brightness/color -- this is from my phone. I've gone with a cheap $30 VESA mounting option until I figure out how I'm going to arrange the setup. Unfortunately, I don't *think* I will be...

    Philips BDM4065UC - 40" 4K 60Hz monitor thread

    Hahahaahahha! I started out just wanting one and assumed the Korean 40" would be okay. I then saw that jp was selling his and I couldn't pass up on a good deal! By Wednesday, I should have 2 up and running -- they'll be completely replacing my 27" Korean PLS/IPS panels. So far - this display...

    Haha - thanks for your input. Unfortunately, I'm not an electrical engineer - so technical trouble shooting is out of the question. I honestly would have very little idea of what I'm looking at/for, in regards to monitors. BTW - the power led isn't turning on.

    Hi all - I've purchased two of these monitors. (One from a Korean seller on Ebay & the other from jphughan ^^^ above ^^^^ - thanks again) Sadly, the Korean monitor ended up arriving DOA. At this point, I'm not sure what course of action I can even take. I paid $200 shipping to my home and now...

    Anyone purchase this monitor from Ebay? How long did EMS take? (Not Fedex) I'm being quoted the end of January by the seller, but all of my Korean monitors arrived in under 5 days.

    Philips BDM4065UC - 40" 4K 60Hz monitor thread

    I've ordered 4 displays from SK sellers on Ebay and have had 0 problems so far. Shipping has taken an average of 3 days. And honestly, Ebay protects buyers much better than sellers, in my experience. You do risk getting a panel that needs to be returned, which will be another $200 if you go...

    Philips BDM4065UC - 40" 4K 60Hz monitor thread

    Thanks for the great info. Also, any consensus on monitor stand and 100mm to 200mm VESA adapter? Ideally, I'll have the bottom resting on my desk, but currently don't have a stand that will allow this perfectly. I imagine the stand base will have to be quite slim.

    Fantastic! I just jumped on one of these monitors from ebay. (Lack of patience for Amazon) After I bought the 295x2 this winter when they were going for under $700, I was hoping it could come close to maxing on 4k. Question: Do you notice any dimming of the display when overclocked to 70hz...

    Congress Wants To Legislate Net Neutrality

    It only took me about 45 minutes to complete all of the required quizzes, plus the additional 1000pt quizzes necessary to reach 10,000pts. Some of the questions are tricky because they use ambiguous, non-technical language.

    Men in Their Twenties Are Weak, Unmarriable Gamers
