Just wanted to share this since its a great deal

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16824260111

Ordered one myself

I was contemplating the monoprice one, but ended up getting this one. So hopefully it works out that I like it. If not, I may have to return it and pay the re-stocking fee.

That is an amazing deal. I bought one of the Korean models in the summer of last year. Never going back to 1080p. I love 2560x1440!

I checked reviews of my graphics card before ordering this monitor and it said that they tested it at 2560x1440 for benchmark tests, but I went to the manufacturer's website today and it says 1900x1200 is the max resolution.

I hope the manufacturer's website is wrong. Otherwise I may have to go out this weekend and get a new card.

Yup, manufacturer's website is WRONG.

Glad to hear it. It would have to be pretty old to not support that res.

How do you like it so far?

It's definitely big. lol

The screen is extremely bright and crisp. I have only played a couple games, but I thought they really looked good. My card seemed to hold up pretty well all things considered, but if I was playing some more action intensive stuff (which I do at times), I think my 2GB 6950 would struggle a good bit.

yeah 2560x1440 has almost double the pixels of 1080p so its quite a bit more demanding
