    How curious. Read your post & thought no way can an image make the monitor electronics audible, but sure enough on full-screen zoom that image does cause a buzz. I guess the sharp contrast from white to black on succesive scan lines is maxing something out. However your 2nd link (multiple photo...

    I was an early adopter of the HZ27WC, & would just like to say that nearly a year later i'm still immensely happy with it. No noticeable dust issues, fantastic display at full res. & i still think it's amazing value for money. Seems to be a lot of hate in the forum, but to date I still can't...

    I'm using it with a PowerColor 6870 PCS+. It's running Crysis, Modern Warfare 2, Dirt 3 etc. all at full res. (2500x1400). There is no ghosting & the games at that res are totally mind-blowing. Also used it for viewing a couple of HD movies; these have been scaled to fill the screen & look...

    I got my HZ27WC as part of the first batch, but since the PC it was plugged into died after 2 days, only got a proper look at it again today. Great screen, but there is a huge design fault; i'm using an HQ DVI-D lead (basiscally like any other, but the cable is quite thick). Because of the...

    I have some metal washers handy, is there a reason everyone else suggested plastic washers?

    "Im sure every one here who has a monitor stand does not want 8 kg of monitor wobble" No. "i mean the last thing some one wants to do is run round B&Q looking for screws to fit a new monitor on there stand when they just forked out 400-500 odd quid" Don't want to, but will be getting...

    OCUK have dropped the price (by £26) on the HZ27WA to £503.99 inc. VAT, til the end of the week.

    "Yes, the glass was certainly not fitted in a dust-free environment." Well, following the thread, i understand it was fitted in a clean room. I have no idea if this is up to chip-manufacturing standards where everybody walks about in spacesuits. I thought someone stated that some Dell...

    @hlennie "how about bonding a magnetic seal to the glass and frame so it can be easly removed." I reckon if it was easy to do so effectively then someone would have done it ages ago. Add-on mag strips i have seen have not been that strong. It would def. add to the cost too. Also do you really...

    I have the MX (wallmount) stand, which is good for 13 kg. Unfortunately i think mine has a fault & will have to be replaced (can't tell for sure until the monitor arrives), but they are great looking arms!

    Damn, now i've bought it, i'm in danger of having a productive day! No more continuous updating of this page, of checking out Hazro's websites, or seeing if OCUK has more than 8 models of large monitor for sale!

    Marginally over really, as it was supposed to include VAT & P&P. But i'm not complaining, have ordered mine, & am happy to have lost the bet that Duke Nukem Forever would be out first. :)

    so i just decided to try the obvious & gave OCUK a call. Sales guy had nothing on his screen, asked me to hang on, came back & said he'd spoken to the main purchaser who claimed to know nothing about any new 27" monitors coming in from anybody!! :( I suppose he could have been fobbing me off..

    If there's a lot of negative speculation, the fault is all Hazro's: At least 4 date deadlines have been missed, only 1 post from Hazro in the last 3-4 weeks, it is not reassuring. At the very least, i would have expected the "marketing material" mentioned to be with OCUK & on the site now (i...

    Arghh.. the week is nearly over! Am considering going down the Bookies' to place a bet on Duke Nukem Forever beating Hazro's 27" monitors to market.

    Yeah sorry, mis-type on the first one. I just discovered it's to do with resolution. It now appears that all the DVI-D dual converters are active (powered), but more importantly they must be attached at the graphics card end of the cable! I was hoping to attach an adapter on the monitor end of...

    btw, can somone explain to me the difference between DVD-D single & DVI-D dual link cables? The Hazro requires DVD-D single, right?

    Annnoying. Even after the take-down there is still information stating the HZ27Wa has displayport. I seem to be the only person interested in if the monitors will work directly with a displayport cable + Dp to DVI convertor, & i can't ask them directly because Firefox refuses to display the...
