Hazro HZ27WC LED I-PS 27 inch Monitor

[gdmunn83]

one other thing. just looked on the overclockers site and glass model is now £540 :(

[gdmunn83]

Hi just wondering if i could run it at full resolution on my single gtx560 ti with 1gb of memory. The graphics card says it can handle 2560x1600. what connections are on the monitor. My card has a hdmi connection and dual-link DVI-I connections.

[thetshirtblog]

Great looking screen, especially for the price. Glossy IPS displays seem to look nicer than anything else. Too bad we can't have these in the States.

[NEILVANCE]

Hi, I just ordered one from overclockers today, your review gave me that extra 'yes' go for it ... Did you get any noticable bad pixels or dust behind the glass, I believe at least there may be a chance of dust be hind the glass from the manufacturer. how was yours? best wishes, neil.

[TheErd72]

Overclockers.co.uk today 26-01-12 £259,99

[bboymassUK]

sometimes they have special offers on and i was luck enough to check at the right time. check the web site every wed. thats when the midweek offers start.

[Sirdiggar]

@bboymassUK

Yeah it's back at £369 now

[bboymassUK]

Glass

[bboymassUK]

guys, this screen (for 350 pounds) is amazing. Glass looks better than mat as long as your not sat with a window behind you.

im so tempted to buy 2 more for eyefinity with a HD7690.

bf3 looks amazing.

[Jackaldom]

@bboymassUK Hey mate I'm looking at this monitor as an upgrade. As I'm also purchasing from Overclockers UK they have two models, one is Glass and the other Non-Glass. which model is this?

[bboymassUK]

@Jackaldom My screen is the Glass version. I went with Glass becuase it provides an extra bit of sharpnes. If your not sitting with a window behind you, go for it. it's actually 50 notes cheaper too.

[Quacktacular]

@Jackaldom hI, I just bought the none glass version and it is very glossy and DOES NOT have a matte coating. There would be NO difference between this and the glass version as the contrast in colours etc is amazing and the glass provides no real benefit. Plus there may well be dust trapped behind the glass that cannot be removed :(. So it's up to you but it would be a vote for NONE GLASS for me! Best of luck!

[Niqbal87]

@Quacktacular what is the matte version called? my room has a lot of light

[potatocats]

@Quacktacular How much did you buy it for (if you don't mind me asking :3)? Thanks.

[Sirdiggar]

@bboymassUK

Where you find it for £350? Only place I can see it is Overclockers uk and it's £479 for the glass version.

[Cubi2k11]

the colors are great the price too but look at 4:57 then you will see that glossy panels are crap.

[kelseyjudson]

@Cubi2k11 Look at the hideous grain on anti-glare matte coatings. It depends on the environment you're using it in. Glossy panels get a bad rap from people who don't know any better and like to follow the mainstream or just can't see past their own bias. Nothing wrong with preferring matte. But that doesn't make gloss crap. Personally I feel a lot of it comes from genuinely crap glossy laptop displays.

[bboymassUK]

Hazro is back.

cant deal with the picture quality anymore, 1920x1080 cant cut it anymore.

when you see bf3 in 2560x1440 ips your shit. lol.

anyway, im doing 3 of these over the month or so, and upgrading the gpu to handle the 7000+ resolution.

its daddy time, happy xmas guys.

lol

[bboymassUK]

Hazro is back online.

lol

[potatocats]

@bboymassUK Hey mate, would this monitor and 2x 3GB GTX 580's be a good idea, if not do you have any recommendations? Thanks.

[driverwilliams]

Nice video. What version of the HZ27WC do you have ? Glass or non-Glass version ?

[girlsdrinkfeck]

seen this on scan computers website for around £500 ,bargain for a IPS glass screen 1440 monitor

[DEEJAYSKARA]

how do u find the glossy screen, does it hurt your eyes?

[bboymassUK]

Hazro has NO lag as far as im concerned.

Going from 3 screens did my head in after a bout 2 weeks, which is why I'm back with 3xbenqs.

Hazro is very, very good for the money and If I had the room,3xGPU and cash I would be rocking 3 x Hazro.

End Of.

R.

[ViperKid89]

Is the lag on the HZ27WD really that noticeable? I'm trying to decide if to get the WC or the WD primarily for photo and video editing and web design. I have 3 22" BenQ 1080p LED monitors for my gaming rig, so if I like the Hazro enough I may buy another and go from a 3 screen setup to 1 too!

[bboymassUK]

no mate.

2x560 in sli would handle 2560x1440 res.

just lower the aa because of the lack of video mem.

if your 560 has 750M mem, turn off aa.

if you have the 1g version, your get away with a low aa count.

should be fine dude, but dont get blaming me if you dont.

lol

[mtxgamer]

So you think this is better then then 3 24"monitors? I'm guessing i would have trouble playing games on this with 2 560ti'sin sli?

[bboymassUK]

yea, dont remind me.

lol

[keironewoodgate]

I'd be coming from a 1680x1050 Samsung so the difference for me who be nuts.

7680x1440 would be awesome.

[bboymassUK]

you cant go wrong with the hazro mate.

i wanted to buy 3 for eyefinity but i canned the idea.

my mate has mine now and ive gone with 3 benq 24.

slight difference. lol

[keironewoodgate]

Im sooo tempted by one of these....

[mediadhanjal]

im planning on getting this in dec. currently im playing on a 42inch hdtv which is rubbish cos you cant really increase resolution with out getting evil black boarders or the image not fitting the screen. so i need to treat my self in buying a PC monitor and i saw this bad boy on overclockers. so i need to buy lol

[bboymassUK]

yea its a great monitor. much better than what im running now, but i needed 3xscreens (because i missed the emersiveness) and couldnt afford 2 more.

buy it, for 350 its a bargin.

[bboymassUK]

@InterceptingRage Yea, price dropped this week. I sold it to a friend of mine so I'm happy its gone to a good home.

I do miss the quality, but I love my 3 x 24 Benqs

[byAuracle]

@InterceptingRage Yup just saw the deal and came to youtube to look at it ;)

[goodace12]

hi bud ive heard that this moniter screen suffers with bad reflections is this true as i am a gamer. and i want 1 could you please let me know thxs

[OglesbyP]

What wallpaper is that ?

[bboymassUK]

where do you live ??

im not posting it, collection only.

[bboymassUK]

no ips-glow (to my eyes anyway)

i really miss surround vision. so i would say get 3 screens if you love racing sims/games.

im going to sell the hazro for £350 if anyone is interested?

r.

[stewartmcgovern2k10]

@bboymassUK i will have it for £350 mate

[Drugf4c3]

Tell me, should I buy one big screen like this or 3 27" normal hd for surround ?

[YouTechReviews]

What was making you want to sell it, problems with glare or gaming? I love the look of this and for the price is a steal, but does the glass cause problems with gaming? Cheers

[finbenton]

Hows the IPS-glow?

[bboymassUK]

Mat, i dont know mate. I chose the glass because of easy cleaning and it makes the picture look sharper. I was going to sell it, but im now saving for 2 more.

[mattfm101]

I know glass is ment to be better but what do u think about the matte edition cause i do want to get this monitor

[bboymassUK]

its awesome.

Im also selling it.

why?

i miss my 3 screen gaming and want to buy 3 ips 24inch screens at a lower resolution.

£400

r.

[LiquidBananaMan]

@bboymassUK You can buy it new for £400 i doubt anyone will pay anywhere near that for a second hand one.

[Madowstone]

I want a screen for hobby-photo-works, I got a Samsung T260, which is totally crap for photo. Is this screen good a try? I read alot but everything was gaming and movie-watching focused.

[SlothDigital]

Is this a glass or non-glass?

[padmdhs]

i also am a member of overclockers and im torn between the HZ27WA and the u2711 as are a lot of other people on there lol but this video looks amazing i own the g 15 keyboard and also have been debating weather i need the g 19 i do now lmao it also looks amazing in the video

[davef89]

Like the price and resolution, but not the reflective coating.

[bboymassUK]

desktop wallpaper is from microsoft

[RhysMFG]

@bboymassUK Thanks for this review, decided to get this over the dell ultrasharp 27"

Will be a nice upgrade from my free asda's unbranded television from 2004 which I am currently using :D

My only concern is, do the colours look real? I am hoping to use it for graphics settings and am worried if the monitor is calibrated for games as opposed to realism

[Madowstone]

@RhysMFG tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/conte­nt/hazro_hz27wa.htm reviews the current 3 models in detail. If you do srgb you will be fine. if you doe adobergb or any more sufisticated colorspace you are screwed... as always...

[response1211]

These monitors are stunning - I have the HZ27WA. Truly awesome!!

[syshock2]

excellent video. Very informative. Gonna buy one now!!!

[dstockwell23]

whats the desktop background, you have a link to the full res version?

i have the same monitor now too, it does look good :)

[bboymassUK]

yes mate. 5 w

dont know how they sound.

[nawaz2kx]

does this monitor have built-in speakers?

[bboymassUK]

you still see jaggies at 2560x1440 so your wrong about not needing aa.

dont forget to subscribe.

[bboymassUK]

2560x1440 will require a beefy card to run, but a single hd6970 or gtx580 will be fine.

if your running dx11, then your need sli or crossfire to handle the load.

dx9 should be fine on a sinhle card.

i used to run 5870x1080 dx9 games on a single 5870 eyefinity6 card and it was sweet.

go and buy dude, your be amazed.

r.

[nawaz2kx]

@bboymassUK playing at 2560x1440 means you will never need to use AA so a single 580 or 6970 is more than enough. i play at 1920x1200 with a single 580 and its overkill even with AA.

[nioxic]

@bboymassUK I've just gotten same monitor as you. running 2560x1440, with one single 560-Ti (i Am getting a 2nd one later) but so far it runs fine! Sc2, 60 fps. Fear 3, 60 fps. ... and so on! crysis one though.. only 40 fps :p

I'd like to say that i also love this monitor. been using it just for a few hours though. but its really amazing! Clearly a lot better color than my old 120hz 2233RZ from samsung(which is also an ok screen) Worth EVERY penny! :D

[ScarySquirrel]

I'm really tempted by this monitor, and I'd be buying it when upgrading as well which is fine. But I worry that towards the end of my upgrade cycle (say in 18-24 months) that I'd be struggling to play the latest games due to the resolution. I suppose I've got my 20" TFT just in case that happens.

Ok, this is a pointless comment, I'm just rambling to myself now.

PS. Did you post a review on OcUK by any chance?

[bboymassUK]

yes mate, glass version os sharper than the plain panel. its reflective, but as long ad you dont have any windows behind you its veru nice.

amazing for the money.

[kevinbrian14]

is this the glass version?

[bboymassUK]

message to pctechrealm.

answered your question mate.

[bboymassUK]

no problem.

the little keyboard is called FlexiGlow.

ill do a review before the weekend.

i tell you guys, this hazro is getting better each day (burn in period is usually 2 weeks).

cant get over how everything looks in 2560x1440.

[rainbowrampage1]

Finally !! found a video on youtube of this ! thanks.. I'm going to buy it now !

[PCTechRealm]

Can you also do a video review of that mini keyboard you have on the left, looks nice with the G19!

[PCTechRealm]

How much for the three dell monitors, pm me price plz asap, regarding the setup, love it, would love to see two more in eyefinity, keyboard looks nice aswell!

[bboymassUK]

no mate.

im not interested in eyefinity for now. just played doom 3 in 2560x1440 16x aa and its mind blowing.

ill give it a try and report back.

[SniperBravo57]

Have you tried using your 2 other monitors for a portrait setup with the 27 in the middle.
