Hi, me and my colleague Petr "Feyd1364" did (hopefully) comprehensive hardware guide for War Thunder 1.39 and 1.41. We tested 24 graphic cards (from old HD 5850 to R9 295X2), tried many options, resolutions 1080p, 1440p and 4K, analyzed (micro)stuttering and more. Article is in czech, but charts...

We did comprehensive HW guide for World of Tanks 9.0. I think it's pretty unique and many players can decide which GPU/CPU is optimal for playing WoT and how to set details for weaker PCs. We also included some micro-stuttering and CPU perf. analysis...

My review of BenQ BL2411PT: BenQ BL2411PT: IPS bomb that’ll finally destroy flickering Dell U2412M In short: - semigloss AG coating like Samsung PLS or Dell U2713HM (or NEC EA244WMi) - fast response times (OverDrive can be turned off), almost zero input lag - accurate color settings...

- very similar to Dell U2913WM - OverDrive can be turned off - without backlight uniformity correction Full review: http://www.extrahardware.com/article/philips-298p4-wild-mix-ips-219-and-display-size-73-cm

Sorry for late reply - but If there is a new revision with completely different panel, I'm not able to make verdict. Good news are that I recently reviewed another semigloss IPS with 1920 x 1200 px completely flicker-free (without PWM): BenQ BL2411PT...

Posivive "hand shaking test" doesn't mean it will be bad monitor for you. It's so individual. I (personally) don't have headache or similar problems with the monitors with PWM @ 180 Hz. But there certainly are people which do.

I have an osciloscope, so I'm able to measure frequency of PWM ;-) http://extrahardware.cnews.cz/recenze/nec-prekvapil-ea244wmi-je-levny-polomatny-ips-1920-x-1200-px-test/strana/0/10 (google translate CZ -> EN can help)

Contemporary VA (= A-MVA5 LED by AUO in most cases) are really bad. See this: http://extrahardware.cnews.cz/recenze/benq-gw2460hm-je-novy-va-led-nejlepsi-volbou-do-peti-tisic-korun/strana/0/9 (u can use google translate CZ -> EN, but the photos of terrible (and I mean really terrible) viewing...

Samsung S24A850DW doesn't use PWM for brightness regulation (there's linear regulation of DC - without flickering). But to be honest, 266 Hz PWM (NEC EA244WMi) is not that bad, many monitors have about 183 Hz (and it could be still ok for many people - all depends on sensitivity of concrete...

I've just finished all the tests, now "just" to write the review. ? The colors are very accurate to sRGB in factory setting (avg. dE < 3), with ICC profile is avg. dE < 2,8. Best results with R100, G96 and B97. Contrast ration is more than 1200:1 in the range from 8 to 350 cd/m2 (and this is...

I got one for the review. First surprise - it's SEMI-GLOSSY (or semi-matte, what do u prefer). Just like Samsung S24A850DW (PLS) or Dell U2713HM. And it's very price competitive (here in Czech rep.), cheaper than Eizo EV2436 and little bit cheaper than HP ZR2440w. I will finish review in couple...

I had two samples (I destroyed the first one because of that stupid stand :-)) for review, both were fine (read: non problematic) in terms of brightness uniformity. Another czech website has the unit with worse uniformity and some backlight bleeding.

LG IPS237L is strange monitor: good color settings (dE, grayscale), nice and working hardware calibration (for such price!), but terrible handling (rather use software way - TrueColor Finder), bad stand and awful coating (sticked not very preciously)...

Still flicker-free (without PWM). Look at those three screenshots from oscilloscope (brightness 0, 50 and 100 %): http://extrahardware.cnews.cz/test-hp-zr2740w-ips-semi-matte-glossy-2012-review/strana/0/9

Smart enough to recognize glossy, semi-glossy, matte (grainy) coating. Hope so :-D

OMG. I'm the reviewer (author) :-) The link is related to the old version of ZR2740w. Just check the photos right in the first chapter (and those reflections).

Google Translate is capable to translate most of sentences from Czech to English. And you should be able with such translation (together with charts, tables, screenshots and photos) to understand the most important facts.

It's not possible. I borrowed this ZR2740w from e-shop (Alfa.cz, and just returned it). Local HP has probably still same old sample from July 2011. Another interesting fact: when I reviews first ZR2740w (matte) before the end of 2011, specification says max. brightness: 380 cd/m2. But this old...

HP ZR2740w manufactured in 2012 is semi-glossy. Coating is very similar to Samsung S27A850D. The panel in this monitor is completely new. My (hopefully in-depth) review of "2012 HP ZR2740w" with semi-glossy IPS: http://extrahardware.cnews.cz/test-hp-zr2740w-ips-semi-matte-glossy-2012-review
