B-grade

Is it worth it at that price?

I don't game, just like a lot of workspace

They are a very good price...I cant help but now I am also interested in this. Or 120Hz. Tricky.

Would be an instant buy if they felt secure enough to offer the full warranty.

120 is only really awsome for gaming if you want work space then thats a good monitor you could always look up some reviews if you want to make sure.

I'll tell you when I get mine.

They had a load of these around march time for the sale price in bgrade.

I got one and its been brilliant. No dead pixels no nothing.

Others, however, got one and theres had marks on the bezel, and some didn't work at all with faulty power bricks.

Can get a refund if those things occur though MeatLoaf

Only 90 day warranty would want min of 1 year to risky for me still good price though.

If I was buying a korean monitor I'd buy one capable of 100hz+ and one that has no addon board so has minimal input lag. Unfortunatly the DGM can't be overclocked and has an addon card.

I'd be tempted if there were a year warranty on these, 90 day is too short

Well.. I got my monitor today.

It appears to be DOA.

Power brick LED is a steady green but the blue LED on the monitor is flickering.
Power button doesn't do anything.
Nothing on screen through the DVD or HDMI ports.

I know these DGMs are a risk even 'A' grade brand new, but that still sucks. B grade doesn't stand for broken.

Thsi particular monitor is no longer listed, but others are: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/productlist.php?groupid=595&catid=670

it would be nice if the listings specified exactly what 'b grade' means. the term is sometimes used by other companies:
example 1: http://blueplace-investment-sa.com/import_export/import_export_ecrans_fr.php
example 2: http://www.magictouch.com/lcd_grade.html

However, the above examples use the term in a different manner to how I see the terms 'A' and 'A-' used in relation to LG panels in certain monitors that shall not be named...

It appears to be a rather un-standardised area, which is why a little explanatory note in the listings could help.
