Krystian Zawada - 13/02/2011  The monitor itself is excellent quality, beautiful eye-candy graphics and a useful range of inputs. The only thing is the buttons are placed in a bit of an awkward place, and the colours chosen for the font printed above them is a bit too dark to see. Other than that, I rate the monitor 5/5.
The 3D Kit is excellent build quality too, very sturdy, comfortable and easy to install. Its actual use on the other hand, is not-so-amazing. I must admit the 3D is not fully what I expected, and is a little bit less than I thought it would be (or maybe this is just me? Many friends who tested this kit + monitor when they came over said its amazing...)
Also, don't forget to play games in 3D you will need a very good PC, with an exceptionally good graphics card if you want to play games with maxed detail + 3D. For example, I have a PC with i7 920, a GTX 580 card and 6GB DDR3 ram, and still cannot play games such as Metro 2033 maxed out with DX11, so to enjoy some games you will need to sacrifice either some graphical detail or choose to play in DX10 or 9.
One last thing, I encountered problems with mostly shooter games where when you used 3D, the crosshair goes a bit 'sideways' (this is probably because of the way stereoscopic 3D works) making games such as Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer with 3D a bit useless.
I hope this review is informative enough to make people base their decisions on it, and excuse me if its not perfect, it is the first proper review I ever did.
PS: service from KSN was very good throughout, e.g. they failed to deliver my package before christmas day (understandable) so they refunded me my delivery charges. Thank you KSN for the easy purchase. |
