I have two of the same monitor and it was nice until both got the screen flicker. This is a known issue but ASUS won't acknowledge it. So now I have to do a RMA which if you have to do one you'll find out it's a joke.
And don't think you won't get the flicker because you will. As I stated it's a known issue and ASUS really doesn't care. And I did confirm this with the tech about it being a known issue. Save your self the headache and don't buy this monitor.
Hey. I just bought the same screen and I have a problem. Coming from my 22" samsung, asus color RED looks ORANGE. It's really annoying. Is there a setting or is it just the way the monitor is.
Chanched the color temperature to normal and that helped alot but it's still a little orange. HELP
do you sense any ghosting? like just a little bit? i have one and when i move folders i my desktop ( In a wodden wallpaper that you find on google ) i sense some ... Answer me quick , so i can see if i go change for another or not ! ;)
@fpsBeaTt I'm sorry, but it really makes no difference..... the ppi is just 1/5 less than 24" screens which are the norm and the image quality is damn fine! So, its pretty awesome......
Hey, just wondering how well the GTX480 and your monitor are working with each other. Are you running ultra settings with full texture filtering or what? I'm looking to buy a new video card and I'm stuck because i have the same screen as you and i just want to be able to play near max settings. Thanks for helping!
@escovinha0 yes, and I can tell you from a position of absolute knowledge on the subject that the 10^7:1 contrast ratios are completely absurd, and bear no real world relevance. The number you care about, which is what reflects real world contrast, is its native level. For example, professional grade LED backlit IPS displays (like the one that I'm using currently), a quantum leap above this monitor in image reproduction, has a contrast ratio of 1000:1.
@escovinha0 So I shouldn't argue with you? Because if you actually research the two monitors, you will see they have the EXACT SAME SPECS. The only difference? A webcam.
@escovinha0 Truly, I am so surprised that you obviously haven't taken five minutes to research what you're talking about. The VE27Q and the VK27Q both are LED monitors. This is stated plainly on every site they are sold on, and even on Asus' website. Please, I beg of you, before you type another inane comment, go onto Amazon, and type both model numbers in. Look at the description of both. Once you do this, if you are a man of character, please apologize and admit you were wrong. Thanks.
Nice video. How are you liking this monitor so far? I'm a bit disappointed by the lack of height adjustment, but I like the looks, resolution and low response time.
Hey, I was wondering how the sound is when you play with the PS3? I recently bought the monitor and it works great with my computer and blu-rays on the ps3. But whenever I play a downloaded game, or a disk based game through the monitor, the sound goes all haywire. I was wondering if you ever expierenced that problem.
What is your opinion of your monitor any issues? I'm tossing up between your monitor and the asus vg236h. What do you think of your current monitor have you had any issues with it? Does 27" hurt your eyes since its so big and your sitting so close?
Monitor is nice, no ghosting, vivd colors, too vivid in some of the default setups imo, nice contrast.
Issue so far, I think it's too bright, even lowering brightness, contrast, gamma, etc, it still bothers eyesight a bit and I'm about 2 ft from it in a medium lit room and this was the only reason I brought it in replacement of a dell 2407 wfp. It appears all led (lcd backlight) monitors are a tad too bright which makes me consider trading it for an lcd.
@MentallFloss Ah I see I went for the Dell Ultrasharp U2711 monitor because it had really good screen and wasn't limited to 1080p but 1440. How did you find your U2407? At the moment I'm loving my 27" ultrasharp monitr for every aspect gaming, surfing the web, movies etc.. It's just terrific.
@darknight99s Hey, I was wondering how the sound is when you play with the PS3? I recently bought the monitor and it works great with my computer and blu-rays on the ps3.

@Niqbal87 but u could also pick an lg model and i think it will work even without vision kit because lg uses a different tecnique for producing 3D for example this one here LG D2542P but i'm not realy sure if it will work because i only got a 3D tv but if u give me 10 days ill try to run my new pc on that and test it ;D
@Aaron2k46@blingblingbling420 the reason he says 720p is because even though the monitor can display 1080p games consoles only transmit in a 720p resolution so the monitor will show console games in 720p (although some games are available in 1080i but thats a different matter altogether)
The contrast on the new LEDs are outstanding. On reviewer said that LED shows little improvement over standard LCD, but once you see both monitors side by side the difference is obvious. There is only a $25 difference between the two monitors
Do you get any ghosting with your monitor? I've read tons of reviews on the 24in version and a lot of people complain of ghosting. I'm thinking of upgrading to the VE278q is the reason I ask.
@bigrock212121 That what U upgrade from a 24" because the ghosting is unreal. This is so much better I have not tried with a console but 1080p movies are so amazing
@Trinitaste Really? Because some games look like sh!t on my PS3. Are you using HDMI or HDMI to DVI cable?
As for the monitor, it is awesome. However i find it annoying that it gives me so limited option in standard mode. Like, you can't make standard mode look like scenary mode or theater mode, you just can't. You can't even control the colors in Standard mode "but you can in others" it's kind of annoying.
@HooksHauntedHollow That's good. I also brought it for $270(Open Box) but..... I received a defect because on the bottom screen was a scratch on the inside which was annoying. I got a refund for it fast with Newegg's great customer service. Now every store is sold out of them.
all I have to say is wow, the fact that hes prolly holding a crappy cam corder about 6 inches and a foot away from the monitor itself and it still shows up that clear in a video is quite frankly impressive ..
