I guess you were able to make your peace with the IPS glow? Or have you not found it to be too invasive? The oversaturation doesn't bother you either, or you have a workaround? Just curious, 'cause those are the issues that are holding *me* back. :)

Ah! I just wanted to test out the validity of the gpu-based sRGB solution that's been discussed here and elsewhere. Supposedly, if you're running an AMD card, you use some of the Catalyst Control Center settings to have it manage the colorspace if the monitor lacks an sRGB preset. Here's a...

Don't suppose you have an AMD gfx card, do you? ;)

Is the VP2770 not also a PLS panel? Is image quality substantially different between the two?

Hey NCX, I thought the VP2770 was one of your top pics at 27"? I watched your video review on it, and it does look really nice - I just wish it was 2560x1600 and 30". :P Would you recommend that Eizo over the 2770?

Thanks for the explanation! Everybody's got their particular set of needs, I suppose, which is why it seems there can't be one monitor to rule them all, I suppose. Forgive my ignorance, but is banding really that much of an issue without 10 bit color? I've been using a bargain-basement...

Ah... well, the VP2770 is a PLS panel, I believe, although I see it referred to elsewhere as an IPS, which I don't understand. I would google NCX's review. Though not yet complete, it might provide some of the info you're looking for.

Can't say about the comparison, but NCX has a partial review of the Z30i up elsewhere. Unless I read it incorrectly, he seems very impressed with motion performance (i.e. minimal ghosting). Lag is acceptable/average for an IPS, but blacks suffer from IPS glow. However, if you're already...

Which one, if I may ask? Is it the VP2770? Would you be interested in posting a brief comparison when it arrives? And why is 10bit color a deal-breaker? I thought that kind of color range was mostly for achieving high screen-to-print accuracy for media work, when the gfx card and software...

I feel you on the value angle, but as I said before, I *really* love 16:10, and vastly prefer the pixel size. And the matte coating on the Z30i isn't too heavy, no? Input lag probably acceptable for me, so the real questions (outside sheer price) are about motion and color accuracy. I'm...

Having done a fair amount of reading around these here and other parts, I'm aware that you seem to not be a big proponent of 30" monitors in general, and loath searing sRGB colors with extended gamut in particular. Please forgive me if that's an inaccurate assessment. ;) Funny you posted the...

Man, that sounds awesome. I have essentially the same usage model in mind - work that isn't color-critical, games, media, etc. I just don't have any experience with wide-gamut monitors, so I don't know how much the over-saturation might bother me, if at all. You really know how to sell a...

Eschertias, I was wondering if we could trouble you for a usage impressions update? Nothing in-depth or time consuming, maybe just a thumbs up or down after a couple more weeks of use? Actually, I do have a specific question - are you approximating an sRGB colorspace, and if so, how's it...

How about those of us that don't really need an extended colorspace, but are in love with 30 inches of 16:10 and a pleasing pixel pitch? ; ) Just funnin', of course. I'm really looking forward to seeing more input on this monster, so I hope they get you your sample soon!

Speaking purely out of self-interest, since I don't game on consoles or have a Blu-Ray player, this is delicious news. If the sRGB approximation is accurate, it just pulls this that much closer to a purchase. C'mon Eschertias, tell me what I want to hear, lol. :D

I hear that. G-Sync is really intriguing, OLED is creeping up, but I've had my heart set on a major pixel count upgrade for some time, and it'll probably take a long time for tech like that to trickle into the market at large panel sizes. I'm still rocking a $120 22" CTL-brand monitor (Who...

Yo! Done lurked around here for a minute, but I created an account specifically for this thread - I'm about to pull the trigger on a new high-end rig, and the monitor is the last component in question. I really, really want most of the properties of a 30"; pixel size, 16:10, IPS colors and...
