FYI this means TN is greater than VA which is greater than IPS - you made me question my purchase two days ago of an IPS! Then reading your post it's clear you mean IPS is generally your top pick.
I'll see how this one arriving from MM is. I have high hopes as I'm coming from a BenQ TN 1080p, which has been great for gaming with its high refresh rate for many years now, but lacking in colour accuracy and general pretty picture-ness.
I'll likely need a new GPU extra quick though given my 980Ti and this new one is 1440p.
Very much alright - it's so easy to get them mixed upAh I always do that, sorry, I'll go edit it the right way round.
I think my last few DP cables were Club3D. I think for HDMI I'm using QED. Not sure on what length you need, but a 2M Vesa certified Club3D DP1.4 cable that supports resolutions up to 8K @ 60Hz and 4K @ 144Hz is around £12 - £20 online. I'm sure that would be OK for 2K @ 165Hz.Any pointers on a Display Port cable? Dell kindly only provide an HDMI, which doesn't support the actual headline refresh rate of 165 Hz...

Had you any luck with your return? I have had mine for just over a week and while I don't think it's defective I'm just quite underwhelmed by it. The display is warmer than I would like and annoyingly I can't run either my MacBook or my work (Dell) laptop in RGB mode.well i'm also returing mine , it is got ips glow , it is revision A02 Manufactured Mar 2021 , can some one please tell me the steps how should i request a return ?
i took some pictures you can see it

This is very much the same for me. I don't know if the nano-IPS thing is over-hyped (or maybe I built it up too much myself) but from an image quality and colour fidelity POV I don't see any appreciable improvement in this over my mid range work Dell S2417H monitor which is obviously traditional IPS.I've had this monitor for about two weeks I'm still unsure if I'm happy with it. I had an eizo ev2455 IPS before which I was happy enough with, this monitor just seems to have a very bad contrast ratio and also a lot of IPS glow which is way more than on my old dead ev2455.
I even bought a spyder x pro for half price to calibrate it with displaycal however still not feeling happy.
Out of the box the colours were way off as rtings review stated. My custom colour gains now are 100R 96G 99B I did notice a green tint out of the box for sure. Once calibrated it's a lot better but still feels over-saturated in general use.
I have to admit I'm super fussy when it comes to displays I have an OLED TV in the living room a plasma in my bedroom so quite spoilt and I flat out refused to use any LCD prior to 2015 and I had a mountain of used 22" lacie and mitsubishi CRT's to play quake on Old TN panels just looked disgusting sat next to a decent CRT.
Maybe nano-IPS is not for me as I'm not that fussed with 165hz maybe I should have got a ultra-sharp instead, the problem now is I don't even know if Dell would accept a return on this as I've seen their backlight bleed/ips glow policy and it has to be totally extreme to be accepted for this.
Sadly the PC market seems only focused now on display latency, its as if the entire market is just for FPS gamers.
It is good IPS is more mainstream, but make no mistake modern IPS is inferior to old IPS, my dell 2209WA,
Yes, I have to say I noticed the vertical viewing angles on this are a lot worse than my old IPS. Need to flip a coin soon decide I can be happy with it or I need to get something else and try return. This type of things eats away at me lol.
Well I finally got the message through to them and the monitor was collected by DPD (at their behest) yesterday (Friday).@GMac11Please let us know how your return goes!
I remember contacting a reviewer about this as they label these screens as "typical viewing angles for IPS", they said the reason they dont say "poor for historical IPS" is they only compare monitors to others released around the same time, not old models.
