Customer Reviews
Pros: I bought three of these to use in eyefinity mode with my new Radeon 6990. They have a fantastic crisp picture and work fantastically in eyefinity mode. Shipping was extremely fast. The stands seem to be a little unstable if the screens are bumped but when left alone the screen don't move (the screens aren't supposed to be bumped so I don't see this as a con. I checked all three of the screens for dead pixels upon receipt of which I could find none. I have had the screens for about a month and a half now without any problems.
Cons: None.

I'm a photographer and web developer and my flat screen was dying so I research this and other monitors before buying.
My photo work is still done on reference CRT. I was tempted by the new IPS panels but decent quality model with GOOD ratings cost ~$500. There's two types of IPS panels. Some provide 8 bit per channel color, and others 6 bit with interpolation that tricks the eye into seeing more colors that aren't really there. I'll wait.
Since I have a Spyder I calibrated this monitor and it looks pretty good, though it blows out the highlights. But compared to the dynamic range of my DSLR it appears to cover the entire shadow range. There is a bar along the left side where it's leaking light. Not sure if this is a design flaw or a bad fit.
One point of confusion: It has a VGA, a DVI, and a HDMI port on the back. But when I plugged in the DVI the monitor starting blinking. So I switched to the VGA port and it works fine. On the ASUS website it states: DVI-D (via HDMI-to-DVI cable). So why put a DVI connector on the back? Also the instructions in the box are next to useless.
Altogether: 4 stars.
For what it is and what it costs it's a pretty nice panel. I'll be using it primarily for web work, surfing and writing. If that's within your needs you should be happy with it.
