**B-GRADE: HOT DEALS TO BE HAD!!**

They showed 7 in stock when I checked at around 11am yesterday, I ordered on the 19th at around 7.30pm, I'll double check the time when I get home. Been told the stock levels were overstated.

Ah well, £200 back in my pocket.
 
I was undecided between eyefinity and 1440, the price of the dgm made it an easy choice, so I can reconsider eyefinity again :)

Though it can wait till later in the year now.

I'm so sorry mate. your so gutted at not getting the dgm. I almost want to give you the extra £100 for a new one. wish I could.....I'm flat broke now. Also bought 2 sapphire hd 6950 2gb DiRT edition cards yesterday. So all I have now is dust in my account. Hope you have better luck next time:)

If i go back to eyefinity it'll be with these monitors - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-053-AS&groupid=17&catid=510

My desk just isn't suited for 5760x1080, but with them flipping i reckon 3240x1920 might work for me, i'm getting all my unused holidays being paid at the end of the month, so might see about getting some. Should hopefully hear about my GPU soon as well, been nearly 3 weeks (gotta check email)

I just got the 27" 144hz of that model. Haven't tested it yet. OCUK didn't give me a dual link dvi cable or a power lead:(

You'll have to remember to tell me what they're like when you get sorted :D
I've got a 120hz Asus VGsomething and they're decent monitors.

I was looking at the sonicmasters for 5760x due to the near lack of bezel :D

Yeah they look pretty sleek, i'd like to see one in person.

If my dvi cable shows up tomorrow I'll post my findings in this thread.

I hope the monitor hasn't got any dead or stuck pixels? crosses fingers all will be well<> some of you know my track record with OCUK. The worst was getting a GPU with grease all over it. I have to say that was the worst thing I've ever got from ocuk.
 
Ok I've tested my Asus 27" 144hz 3D Monitor. Just used a dvi-d cable in stead until my dual link comes tomorrow.

No dead or stuck pixels just have the wrong cable. Went into Nvidia control center and the 144hz option was there but it said I need a dual link cable. I tried it anyways and the screen went all funny. lol Can't wait until I get my dl cable tomorrow.

So fay the only issue I see is there's a little light bleed, on the left bottom and right bottom, but it's very little I didn't even take notice or see it now.

God damn is this monitor HUGE! A little bit bigger then I thought. The screen is so big it's like DAMN!! IN YOUR FACE B****! hahaha It might not be big in the pic, but let me tell you this thing is Massive!

Very happy. Extremely happy in fact:D

I thought my HP 24" monitor was quite big but damn your's is as wide as your keyboard and mousse if my eyes are seeing right.
Glad you didn't get any stuck/dead pixels if read some of the unfortunate things you've had.
 
My B-Grade Asus 144hz is so huge that I bought a new desk today. It was over £400 new and got it for £14 off ebay:D Took a drive into London and picked it up. My old one was just too small for my case and monitor.

It looks awesome now:)

Cheers again Gibbo:D
 
Ah, it has displayport, even comes with a cable that has been in the box since I got it ... need to see if that supports 2560x1600.

Edit: Found the cable (forgot about DP, got the monitor from here in Dec 2010) but need a mini DP to DP adapter? Being B grade there may not be one with the card, only a couple of quid if I need to buy one but want it sent with the card ! Note in Customer Services - hopefully catch em in time.

Message got through and it arrived with a mini dp --> dp cable added by OcUK ... card has been playing Crysis 3 @ 1250/1725 with a quick overclock, not too loud so looking good. Just need a second one now to go with it and I am set for a while ..
