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

    Love the montior...only problem is mine had some very suspect BLB in the center bottom. I can come to expect some corner bleeding but this was oddly yellow colored bleeding right in the middle..having to RMA it already. Talked to a few who own this and said definitely RMA it and hope for a...

    ASUS PB278Q 1440p IPS (PLS Panel)

    Like some of the others I am fickle. I have the ASUS PB278Q and I love it..but after a few days the backlight bleed increased significantly. The corner stuff is usual, faint white glows in the corner but now in the center bottom of the screen is a yellow glow that shows even on non dark...

    Help buying new 27" LED Screen

    I actually had already bought an Auria which is similar to the Korean..and I had to return it as dead pixels began popping up all over. I won't buy a "budget" monitor again. Definitely not a Korean one that I have to have shipped..too risky. I go the Asus PB278 and I love it so far.

    ASUS PB278Q 1440p IPS (PLS Panel)

    I just got this monitor and love it..not really seeing any issues with color as mentioned..but I don't have an testing or calibration tools.. I just left the colors at default, set the contrast to 65 and brightness to 50..seems to be perfect. Set Trace to 20 (though no clue what it is TBH)...

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

    Guess it is hit or miss. Many have it, love it and no problems..others have it love it at first then have issues. I can only go off my experience..mine had about 10 dead or stuck pixels pop up after just about a week. I've never had a monitor do that before. My local MC just had bad luck I...

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

    Yeah..get what you pay for. I thought being an LG panel it would be good..especially based on reviews. Turns out our local Microcenter is not even carrying these any more..they said nearly all that were purchased ended up returned for one problem or another. So buyer beware. When working...

    Help choosing 27" 2560x1440 Monitor

    Sorry I fixed the link. Asus is one of the ones I had, that and the Viewsonic VP2770 and the Dell U2713. My budget really is...more like 300-400 but Already having spent 400 on the Auria 27" and now 35 on the Viewsonic VX2770..I decided I can't go back on that 2560x1440. 1080p just doesn't...

    Help choosing 27" 2560x1440 Monitor

    Hey all, Some of you may have seen my posts in the Auria 27" IPS thread. I had purchased that monitor and LOVED it. 2560x1440 is mindblowing coming from a 23" 1080p monitor. Problem is a week later I had about 10 dead or stuck pixels..so I had to take it back and they no longer have that...

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

    So after having this 2560x1440 monitor, I just can't stand a 27" @ 1080p I purchased a Viewsonic 27" 1080p and it looks nice..but in some games it just can't compare to the Auria (or any) at 2560x1440. So I am thinking I might as well shell out the money..I just can't stand Skyrim on 27"...

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

    I've had this about a week and today about 6 dead pixels popped up..having to return it and apparently my Microcenter no longer carries it. So I might have to go to a ViewSonic 27" IPS at only 1080p. Worried it won't look good? Anyone use 27" @1080p...I see huge debate on the net about it but...

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

    Ah. That is part of the problem posslby. The top of the monitor being at eye level causes you to be slightly above. This may be standard fare thoughbut I noticed on this monitor when slightly above..that right corner light was more noticable. When I look dead on (Center of monitor) it is...

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

    not sure about all the technical parts of your question, but mine is a bit brighter in the bottom right corner as well. Not really noticeable during use though. Once I put it on a stand and raise it up to eye level it seems much better as well. When looking down on the monitor the light seems...

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

    Ah..gotcha. I was worried about the issue and since my GTX 580 (others had reported it didn't work if I recall) has no DP I went ahead and bought a GTX 680 at the same time as the monitor, and a DP cable. Before putting the 680 in I tested DVI on my 580 and it worked as normal...showed post...

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

    I just bought one of these and it is amazing. Also I don't have the resolution issues others have...I can change res and I can see post..with DVI... So I don't have to use this Displayport cable I bought (thank god..expensive things) Will report back after checking it out some.

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

    I was going to buy one of these tonight, have it on reserve at MC, but the no signal at lower res and not seeing BIOS bothers me. Is there a real solution to this yet? I have a GTX 580 so I can't use DP...thought about trying a DP > DVI adapter but not sure it would work (plus can't fnd in a...
