Still at 200, have a few offers first to paypal gets it. Thanks!

Sorry 5970...haha AMD confuses the hell out of me these days :) Drop to 200 shipped conus

I have a lightly used and never overclocked 5870. I just picked up a 5980 for the mini display ports only. My wife wants one less monitor in the room. I have 3 27'' now and can use the apple now with the 5980. I notice no difference in the games I play between the 5870 and the 5980. I...

Just to let everyone know who might have a 5870 or other incompatible card and were thinking of the Atlona 400 box. IT DOES NOT WORK at 2560x1440, it was designed for the imac 27 and the acd 24. I just got off the phone with them and the PC is seeing the monitor as the 24'' ACD and the EDID...

Yes it is. A friend at work gave it to me. Works great.

Here is mine. 27'' imac w/ dell 2711 (pc and imac secondary)

This is a new drive just sent to me by OCZ. I had a firmware mishap on my old drive and they confirm they send me a NIB drive. It is still sealed in plastic and ocz like always will take care of any issue with it quickly as they did with me and they are always writing new firmwares and the...

In a room where you can control the light the imac is far superior because of the AG coating. I feel that the dell can be calibrated to match the imac and vice versa though. When I drag a safari window from imac to dell its like all this dirt suddenly appears on the page. When I was a...

I have not and never will run a display at non native for general use so yes I have them both at 2560x1440 of course. :) That's why I bought it. I mentioned not so clearly that I am using the displayport for the imac out and the dvi for my pc. I use a miniDP to DP cable.

For those uses the imac wins hands down. If you have good control over your lighting it wins in other areas too. For professional use I cannot comment because I have not used a calibrator on either. I like the u2711 and its a great monitor but at this point I have had it with the AG...

Two Boos block butcher blocks from old world butcher blocks (google it)and legs from ikea. They are not cheap but very very high quality walnut and 3 times cheaper as a simliar offering from room and board.

Imac 27'' with u2711 as secondary display in display port My old PC in DVI as primary

My u2711 showed up yesterday and I am almost complete with a PC/mac setup I decided to pursue instead of buying a new i7 machine a few months back. I picked up this arm also for fun (Innovative 7500-1500 27-Inch Deluxe Floating Flat Panel LCD Monitor Radial Arm) from amazon for a nice price...

Have you had a monitor that required a dual link hooked up before? (2560x1xxx) Sounds like if that rez is that only problem could be the video card or unfortunately the scaler in the monitor.

Did you ever get a tracking number for yours? Mine has been shipped for 4 days and no tracking.... god I hate dell now..

order just shipped !!

Just got off the phone with a bunch of people at dell. God they are idiots.... This monitor is most certainly out of stock even though you have to talk to 5 people and pressure them to say that. The continued order dates that generated each week as delayed are not done with any accuracy...

I think most people are in here reading because they are fans of the 2650x1440 (or 1600) res. but I could be wrong.....

To the guys who have the 3008 and the 2711 what do you think in comparison? I am selling my 3007 to a friend mainly to get another with multiple inputs. I have the 2711 on order. How do the 2711 and 3008 stack up against each other in image quality? I have a 27''imac with this panel...

That reviewer should not be anywhere writing reviews for any monitors. He knows nothing about any of the AG issues or wide gamut problems. He is clueless.

Considering the u2410 has the worst grainy coating of them all I fear this monitor is going to be a big pile of sparkle now that it is confirmed matte. Man, the monitor market is just crap..... Pretty sad when you have to buy an imac and close your shades to get a decent display. I am...

Those guys found this thread and re posted the info :D

Of course you should do whatever makes you happy. Some of the comments about my equipment though have helped me find better solutions. A 30'' display is an expensive way to achieve a 2560x1600 desktop. Running at any other resolution greatly reduces the quality of the display. If vision...

Keep spreading the word about this everywhere you can. ATI has done nothing yet.

A 30'' at 1920x1200 non native..... :confused: This makes me sad. :)

How did you feel quality and dot pitch wise going from the 3007 to the 26'' asus which arguable as less superior?

I could not disagree more. Which is why I am afraid to make the jump to 3 1920x1200/1080 monitors. It's tempting though but no 2560x1600 on one screen is hard to give up.

I think I would have fun with one of these setup for games but i am worried the setup would be too wide to be practical for general use. Anyone go from a 30'' to 3 24's? How is it for basic stuff?

I just messed around game in dx11 and directx9 this morning. DX11 lighting looks really nice. It is one of those things that we all know when we are in the heat of the game what we notice and do not notice. Things like 2xaa vs 4xaa and AF and some of the more advanced dx10 and 11 features. I...

Thanks!! I knew I would get answers here!

I have read countless reviews and comments of dx9 vs dx11 but not ONE anywhere has said how to actually compare the two or what settings control this. What the hell? How do you even know? There are no settings that are clearly marked one or the other. One review site could have mentioned...

Is it true only 3 ports work at a time? Chad

How is fast swtiching between the two machine on the imac. For example if I had a game running in win7 and I switched back to osx on the imac and wrote an email and came back would it sync right back up and I could start playing again? I know the mouse and keyboard are issues but just...

Thanks for all the research guys. The problem with all this is as far gaming on the imac 27 is if you have to use 4xxx series and below for it to work there is not much point because bootcamp can be run with the same or similar speeds. Such a disappointment........

Back to the real discussion. The 5970 has a mini displayport out not a regular displayport. What do you think of that circular?

You are a very sad person. 1. The altona does not support the full 2560x1440 yet. They are working on it. (If you had lied and said you worked for altona instead of apple we might have believed it.) Good liars are usually intelligent. 2. You do not work for apple in any development...

Whos buying the 5970 to try? :)

Win 7

I just got a 5870 and was disappointed with the performance compared to my gtx 280 I just tried the new drivers and they are better. I am running at 2560x1600 2x aa 16 af and before at the start of the race it was like 30-40 and then when I passed a few people back to 60 and then back to 30...

As much as I like apple products I am so sick of stuff like this over the years for people who want to integrate them into a larger more sophisticated setup. I remember the same crap with the cinema displays and bios years ago. The real issue here for me is the above 1920x1200 pc display...
