I'm anxious to get one of these bad boys, unfortunately the ETA for delivery is 4/16
If I purchased two U2412M and then purchased the U3014 would the resolution be off?

Yes very. you need a monitor that is 2560px high for regular eyefinity/nvsurround or 1600px wide if you want to do PLP
I can get one through my work for 1250. Anyone interested?? Its through my employee purchase plan. Comes with the 3 year complete care.
You wait until mine is on the truck for delivery to tell me that?
I just found out, I can only get one and honestly I am still happy with my U3011.
I was only teasing. Hope someone takes advantage of your deal.
Some pretty crazy stuff happens in the bottom 10% or so of the screen in game mode during fast moving scenes. I may try to take a video of it. There is some shimmering but that's the least of it.
It's particular to very fast moving scenes, I think it would be quite horrible in racing games.
It puts out less heat than my u2410 and a massive amount less than my u3011.
I still have to play some more games on game mode, will probably play crysis3 some tonight. But initial impression is it's a great purchase.
If pixel walk is what makes the shimering that is something seperate and nowhere near as bad.
Anyway the good news is I just played about 2 hours of crysis3 mp.
2560x1600 all visuals/msaa maxed, I don't think the game is amazing (although hunter mode is quite fun, it's about all I play) but visually it's stunning and I could see absolutely no sign of the shimmer or the other thing I saw earlier. It really takes the perfect moving textures to bring it out.
FWIW there are some bad spots in bioshock infinite, I will try to make a video of that as well. I am not a person that notices ~1frame of lag so I have no problem playing games in the same mode I use for web browsing/programming. I will make a profile with my colorimeter and see how close it is to the factory calibration and one of those will be my permanent setting.
It's nice to know if I'm playing some twitchy fps and I actually notice the ~1frame of lag I can switch to game mode the lag is all but gone, at the cost of some anomalies in the bottom 10-15% of the screen.
Seems a good tradeoff.
Where are you guys purchasing the U3014 in the USA?
Does the hdmi port support 1600p? wondering if i should return the 2713hm to get this one.

Why would you use HDMI? HDMI is inferior to both displayport and DVI-DL in every way, I don't see a reason to ever use it aside from HDTV connectivity.
Also, the answer is 99% no. 99.9% of HDMI implementations are limited to 1080p. Nearly every GPU I've ever used is limited to 1080p through HDMI, including the GTX 600 series. I've not found a single notebook with HDMI that works at higher resolution through HDMI, although displayport works at higher than 1080p.
