Will do. I hope to be picking up a WOW disk this weekend. Wolfenstein: The New Order looks amazing on my Xone. No obvious clouding out of the box like the one I returned. It may have been defective? The remote is not back lit, but the QWERTY keyboard on the reverse is. Never had a...

I agree. It may be confused since DP was used. In the UK thread I posted in here, someone mentioned how to lock in what mode was used. I'll look for it and edit post when I find it. Page 5, post #126 http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18595576&page=5

What OS? I am using Windows 7 Pro and it does not do what you describe. FWIW, I am using an Nvidia video card which has two ports. Turn everything off and try another video port if you have one. Make sure the cable is seated well in the monitor. It's a little hard to get to. Try another cable...

I am returning the M551D-A2 this afternoon. It's edge lit and I have dinner plate sized white splotches in all 4 corners. Going to then head over to Costco and get the M602I-B3 with full array back light. Instant Costco rebate (through 6/20) brings it in at $1099+$55 Costco membership+Tax...

Have this link which has a lot of green. http://www.digitalversus.com/lcd-monitor/aoc-q2770pqu-p17978/test.html FWIW, I am done looking for flaws. As long as it stays pixel perfect and it looks great I'm happy. I have good color uniformity, some glow and no BLB. The bottom corners are a tiny...

NCX said he is getting an AOC in. He may be able to answer your question, but in the meantime you can check his site: http://wecravegamestoo.com/forums/monitor-reviews-discussion/15027-best-2560x1440-monitors.html In the review of the AOC he said: "It is a superior solution to the BenQ...

Darker corner is waaay different than a darker right side as fyleow reported.

I've also thought of them as second tier as well. So far, so good. I don't have a darker side though as you mentioned. Did you use the profile on the disk? http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18595576&page=4 I made sure I read their warranty beforehand. On their site, they...

Thanks for the heads up! I just called Amazon and they are refunding $50. Mine was delivered May 12th. So anyone who recently ordered it through them, give them a call.

Did you receive it yet?

I am learning a lot from various posts in this thread. I have been very pleased with it thus far. I don't have any calibration tools. Just looking at monitors for over 20 years. So I have to rely on feedback here and in other reviews for the particulars. Color accuracy is very good, OOB...

Here's a few more reviews in English: http://www.digitalversus.com/lcd-monitor/aoc-q2770pqu-p17978/test.html http://www.macworld.co.uk/review/lcd-displays/aoc-q2770pqu-review-3515981/ http://www.pcgameware.co.uk/reviews/monitor-reviews/aoc-q2770pqu-wqhd-27-ips-monitor-review/...

:eek::eek:

Both NE & Amazon have it for $569 B&H still at $549 I've watched Amazon's price fluctuate up and down all week.

I cranked mine up to 100% brightness for blacks and white to check. My room is not completely dark as the sun is coming up. I didn't notice any darkness except for a tiny bit in the bottom right corner and a very faint difference in the bottom left corner. By tiny, it's not as big as an almond...

+1 on Amazon. Used additional plain outside box with packing paper on screen side of box. Arrived a day ahead of time. Used to buy from NE and IMO their shipping was awful No packing paper or air cushions even in a box with motherboard, CPU, etc. They might have changed, but I won't take a...

Yes, just popped the CD in and ran the executable. So I guess it's pretty cool since no other cable other than DVI is used. Page 49 of user manual has a screen shot of it. http://us.aoc.com/support/documents/pdf/documents/838...

Received audio and USB cable from AOC tooday.

I have speakers and do not plan on using the ones on the monitor.

I read in a review somewhere that it serves no purpose. I would shoot tech support a question about the audio cable. They are pretty quick to respond. FWIW, I hooked up the USB hub this morning. It's the blue one next to the four black ones underneath on side where AOC is stamped on the...

Bluesun was teasing me. No cable needed for i-Menu. It's on the included CD. It's an app that let's you manage the OSD settings on screen instead of using the OSD buttons.

No cable needed. Works fine with just DVI.

Check the CD for i-Menu. Puts the OSD on screen and is handy to make changes on the fly.

I prefer DVI as well and it's not a big deal at all but the Asus came with all the connection types and costs less. I suspect this will drop in price at some point too. Mac users need to know about no Display Port cable though. Tech support said they will be sending the audio and USB...

Tech Support sent a PDF called spec.pdf. No idea how he found it as I cannot. EDIT: Turns out the PDF was from product marketing, If anyone want's it, PM me. What's in the Box 27” Monitor, Foot stand, Power Cord, VGA Cable, Audio cable, DVI cable, USB cable, Media (includes drivers...

Look on Page 9 of the manual. http://us.aoc.com/support/documents/pdf/documents/838 Supposed to get an MHL cable too. Tech Support contacted me only to ask me what cables were in the box again. :rolleyes: Will post when I find out.

My AOC arrived a day early! It was supposed to be ready for pick up on Tuesday. All I have done is a very cursory check for dead/stuck pixels, check panel uniformity and load the AOC INF & ICM profile. It's very sunny and light right now and will have to wait until dark to check it more...

Same here with the Asus. Someone suggested it's caused by the tightness of the bezel at the corners. I don't know if that's the reason, but it made sense to me. I also see it a little fainter at the top corners. It's easy to not notice and I had forgotten about it until I read the etooeys...

https://www.klearscreen.com/Default.aspx Kind of pricey, but a little goes a long way.

That is very reassuring! I'm not gaming anymore so that's not a factor for me. For others considering this monitor, I found an ICC profile here: http://www.digitalversus.com/lcd-monitor/colour-calibration-profiles-your-monitor-a424/aoc-ap429.html The translation from French is: In order to...

I just posted in this thread: http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1808339 I ordered it last night from Amazon. Been scouring reviews and threads for settings. Would love to hear how you have it set up. Did you order it from Amazon?

I ordered the Q2770PQU last night from Amazon. It should be here Tuesday. I also have the Asus PB278Q that I can compare with the AOC side-by-side. I got a good Asus, but I pulled the trigger and bought if from Micro Center before reading about PWM. I have eye issues and I don't think PWM...

My Gigabyte K8NS Pro seems to reset the overclocking settings after shutting down the computer. After shutting down and powering back up, my CPU Voltage, CPU Speed, CPU Multiplier, Max Memory Speed, Memory Timings and AGP Speed are all reset to the default. All of the other other options...

After installing an Antec Trueblue 480W into my system today, it has begun locking up on boot. I'm able to get to the initial Windows startup, but it locks up before it prompts me to login. The screen just locks, the hard drive light stays lit and nothing happens. As I reduce my overclock, I...
