No-one is using a display port adaptor with on of these monitors?

eBay seller 'bigclothcraft' will replace monitors and pay for shipping if you purchase a 'Pixel Perfect' one from them and it has a defect.

I'm seeing what green-sum is going to do with mine first. I've demanded he refund $60 for the inspection, or he incur shipping costs for the return.

I'm also interested in this, as I may need to run a couple on a Quadro card. Have a Dual Link DVI and 2x Displayport. What's the cheapest way to run two catleaps on this thing?

Just got my Achieva shimian setup very wrapped in the quality for the price no dead pixels

Anyone using two of these monitors? Don't find it too much screen to cover without getting a sore neck? Would a GTX 680 run 2 or would you need an active displayport adapter?

Hopefully (fingers crossed) I have resolved my monitor issue!

A few pages back I reported an issue that my screen sometimes goes fuzzy (i.e. washed colours out you get when you slowly pull the monitor cable out of the socket).

I tried a different video card and DVI-D cable and still the same problem.

I searched on the net a bit more and noticed several posts over @ overclock.net with the same issue and someone resolved it by opening up the monitor and reseating all the cables. I managed to do this last night and while it didn't appear any of the cables were not properly seated I still unplugged and replugged everything back in and it seems good now.

Sorry to link to another site but there is some very good info on the page below (first post) including a section on how to remove the cover to remove the wobbly mount so you can install a VESA mount (as well as access the PCB)

Got my q270 today, no noticeable pixel problems except for what looks like a stuck pixel in the top right which I can only see at the right angle. Bought the cheapest one.

Just thought I would chime in to advise that 120hz.net actually has stock of the 2B-remakes in right now.. These will likely sell out in the next 10 minutes.

I just bought my first one

twinhardballers · 6th July 2012, 10:38 AM

Does anyone know where i could get a triple monitor stand that is compatible with 27" monitors? i have 2x dell 24" and 1 of these 27" catleaps, and the desk is starting to get cluttered :P

koolio1234 · 6th July 2012, 11:27 AM

So for those of you who own a Q270, what can you comment on the number of dead pixels you can see out of the box? Is it common to see a dead pixel with these on most purchases?

XxDeadlyxX · 6th July 2012, 11:27 AM

OOOOHooh they are back in stock NOW!!!! JUST ORDERED - GET IN QUICK!!!

Woot

I have one and 0 dead pixels, I have a friend who got one, 0 dead pixels, i would say 60%+ of the people on here are getting 0 dead pixels in their models.

I've got no dead or bright pixels but a fair bit of backlight bleed from the top, a bit annoying but only noticable on really dark screens
