"I'm really impressed by this monitor so far!"
Pros: Great resolution, picture, and brightness.
Cons: Now I have to upgrade my video card.
Summary: I just bought this monitor two days ago, and I really love it! It's big, bright, and does everything well so far. I've watched one DVD movie on it, and the monitor was great.
Having the high resolution (1680x1050) is really taxing my video card, so I suppose I'll have to upgrade it (as if I needed an excuse...).
If I had to nitpick, the only things I can think of are the built-in speakers and the front-panel buttons.
The built-in speakers are pretty good, but don't quite match the audio quality of the 3-spkr set (with sub) I have, but they do fine.
The front panel buttons are small and flush with surface of the faceplate, so they're a little hard to press for big fingers. Having the buttons small is good for asthetics, but not as good for actual use. It's a good thing I don't need them much.
Having the Audio Out is great, as I have the Audio In connected to my PC and the Audio Out connected to my old speaker set.
The speakers and buttons are just minor things, the picture quality is what counts, and this picture is excellent.
