My MSI 6970 Lighting has HDMI and DisplayPort, which is better to use for this monitor for gaming ?
That seems to be a widely shared feeling. The asymetric design just doesn't seem to appeal to many - I have done a quick survey at my work and of family of friends. From over 60 responses and a broad cross-section of different people there is a resounding preference for the SA750 design. I just wish Samsung had put a DVI port on it and I hope, at least, that DisplayPort makes its way to all of Nvidia's upcoming mid-range+ GPUs. Even if that is scant consolation to existing Nvidia GPU owners.
I like the asymmetrical stand on the 950. I also like asymmetrical modern furniture, so there you go. Having a stand in the middle and just a plain rectangle bezel is pretty boring these days.
Samsung cannot release the 950 soon enough!

I presume there is no wall mount fixings on either of these?
If A GPU doesnt have a display port it cant take advantage of 120hz?
Hey all.
Super new here, but have lurked a lot in the past.
Was wondering about the T27A950 model, is it worth bothering with? Will OCUK stock it?
Really keen on the connectivity of that model, especially optical audio output, as my M11XR2 doesn't have one, but I'm wondering what the negative points are, when compared to the S27A950 model?
Thanks in advance for the advice! =)
If you want 120Hz ur going to have to use the DisplayPort.
I prefer straight, no nonsense, practical design when it comes to stuff like electronics.
+1
I think the 950 is fugly.

It is just a single cable that goes directly from one port on the GPU to another on the monitor. It is basically twice as thick (has twice as many lanes) as a standard cable and delivers twice as much data.
If the GPU is up to par and (obviously) the monitor has a DVI port, yes. Have a look at Nvidia's site on 3d vision as they have an equipment check list in terms of which cards and which monitors are capable of what resolutions and limits etc. My card and monitor are operating through DVI with 120Hz @ 1080p.
