IIRC "P" is meant to be a factory calibrated version (or something like that) - my "P" came with a certificate showing the serial no, some graphs and a pass-mark.

Don't see how considering my P had both P and non P model designation on the back sticker!
Here's a photo at 1AM last night on black background.
I can't complain about this monitor at all, here's hoping it doesn't slow develop an issue like Mrk's.
Also mrk, I'm still hoping they sort you out. I'm amazed they haven't just sent you a new monitor by now. It's getting well our of hand here. If you didn't buy the 29" one you'd be screwed.
A big stuck Red Pixel on that screen, RMA it.
Seriously that is what I would except every time.
So did my non-P one. They're both the exact same.

Hehe, that's the little bluetooth speaker in front of it. Although could you imagine such a massive cluster of stuck red pixels.
I'm very happy with my monitor, my ONLY complaint is the damn power LED. It's set to off, but it flashes on and off when the computer is in sleep mode. Annoys me haha.

Probably grey-import stock - see how well they do customer service on them - you'll probably have similar problems to MRK or worse.
how is that r290 you got pulling that lg 34um95? is gaming fine? how much do you have to go down in settings for it to be a good experience?
Can't speak for r290's, but I'm fine with my two FirePro D700's.
Right, this monitor seems to be the best one I have had so far, there is some bleed/glow but to my eyes, it isn't that noticeable and just within acceptable terms, as usual, the camera makes it look worse than it really is.
The top left in real life isn't anywhere as noticeable as the photo.
So I think I will keep this for now and just keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn't get any worse.
Will do a brief review of this too since there are no reviews on it except linus youtube video.
On a separate note, think I am going to get rid of the dell u2311h, having only used 1 monitor the last few weeks, I haven't really missed dual monitors tbh plus it looks a bit silly having the u2311h in portrait mode lol

Still would like to know if the 290 cards are okay with this monitor. As im sure you know theres issues with those cards on the 4k monitors not working properly.
Also is anyone here using this mainly as a gaming monitor?
The only drawback for me is going from 144hz which is so smooth all the way back to 60hz. Yes it will look great with the ultra wide view and higher res and better colours due to it being IPS but running a 144hz monitor side by side with my 60hz monitor at the moment its a night and day difference.

FYI I spoke with LG today and have been informed that the revision 2.0 firmware will be available to download soon
Is this firmware for the 34UM95 or some other model that has been discussed in this thread?
Im thinking of buying the little brother instead the 34um65, but it worries me a bit that its only 8 bit panel. According to specs my sammy s27a950 or just a950 is also an 8bit panel so i wonder what i will get out of it. Perhaps still better quality ? maybe the sammy isnt a true 8 bit but more like 6bit +FRC or whatever its called.
Glad to see you've finally got a reasonable panel Nexus18. Both my Asus screens have gone back for a refund, the build quality is poor.
It looks really good, but it isn't, the top left corner of the screen was loose on the replacement, and according to the retailer they have had several back with the same issue.
So decided to get out while I still had chance.
No idea what I'm going to do next, basically back to the drawing board

Bah, unlucky finguz 
Really doesn't seem to be any good all round 29" monitor atm, either plagued with issues or not up to standard for certain usage.
Only other monitor that you can try is the AOC 29" screen, haven't seen many issues for it...
If this 3rd LG monitor was bad, I was just going to wait till next year for freesync monitors.

The issues with the 4K displays are the displays themselves, just looking them up online brings up people with all sorts of GPU's from both AMD and NVIDIA with the same issues.
It's horrible, and cheap panels/controllers in the TN 4K monitors causing the issues I bet, as the exact same issues are on Samsung, AOC, and ASUS's displays.
The 290's will be fine with this display.

does this monitor come with a lead to be used with GTX 780?
