@badass in your review, where you have stored the icc profile could you change under Preset Mode "standard" to "custom colour"? It's causing a bit of confusion amongst some noobs and is actually wrong.
This is the setting I'm using now
On Screen Display: Brightness 26 / Contrast 75 / Red 97 / Green 97 / Blue 96
Nvidia Control Panel: Brightness 40 / Contrast 37 / Gamma 0.80 / Digital vibrance 53% (+3%)
i was going to take a chance on this monitor but the price keeps fluctuating wildly. surely it puts people off when you sell it at £429, then jack it back up to £499, then go to £455, and finally back to £499? i'm not going to take the chance now unless it goes back down to £429

Thought that was the boxing day sale price
Was also available allot cheaper elsewhere for the deal savvy amongst us.

nvidia settings override application based profiles (.icc/.icm)
vibrance and hue will enhance an existing profile but can cause banding and clipping.

where can I snag the best deals? my inner scrimper will not let me spend £70+ more than what it was on sale for
No deals at the minute. Someone got one from a rainforest for £110.
Thinking of buying one of these, stayed away from asus and acer because of their issues, any issues with this guys?
Always have faith in dell but need to know before I buy, also I see B grade vesriosn of this monitor on sale here on ocuk, whats the diffrerence?

Wow the B Grade seems excellent value. Can a member of staff confirm there will be no dead pixels and the panel itself is as new? There wont be any scuff marks or scratches on the actual screen right?

Not sure you grasp the concept of B grade.
Some people aren't bothered about a dead pixel if it saves them £200.
Do these people actually exist!?
Depends where the dead pixel is, if it's in the top left hand corner and can only be seen on a pure white background, where's the issue? Dead center or lots yes I can see the annoyance

If a pixel died on your monitor today, would your monitor be put straight in bin?
No but if I was buying one I wouldn't want any dead pixels. Wouldn't mind scratches or scuffs on the bezel but the screen itself should be clear of defects. Imagine if you bought one of these B Grade Dell monitors and it had a dead pixel in the middle area, not worth £100 let alone £380.
