Samsung U28D590 mini review

Buckster · 10 May 2014 at 09:12

after watching the PCPer review I think I've decided on the 34 inch LG instead

both look nice products - but the LG seems something different and quite special

Any word on the AOC yet?

I was still looking at the due date of 06/06/2014 and went and ordered some other stuff.

Hi Gibbo,

OC website says 06/06? are these ones being delivered on Monday just for pre- orders?

Hi Gibbo,
Given the arrival date of these Samsung U28D590D's is 26/5/2014 and that is a bank holiday, will they be delivered on that day?

Cheers
Spot

It's a TN panel.

Arrival date of the Samsung U28D590D's is ETA: 02/06/14 and was 26/5/2014. Looks like we are waiting on a boat. Order mine on the 2/5, guess we got to wait.

Ive always said the estimated delivery would be sometime to mid-end May, as it is that an estimate. The website showed 26th and is now showing 2nd and I am hopefully they will be in stock by 2nd which would mean our estimated time of arrival was just a week out.

Fingers crossed we get them late next week and as said previously we have exclusive, our competitors won't be seeing official UK models until around mid-end June, of course some might import earlier from Europe.

What we did not do is what the Rainforest did and claim to be getting stock on May 1st when infact they probably won't get any until mid-end June.

Then your gonna have to wait for Titan z and buy 4 of them so you can run "taxing" games like minecraft at 20-30fps

I joke but it maybe true

Ringes1 · 27 May 2014 at 12:45

any new updates Gibbo?

Just built my new Z97 with 4770k and waiting for the monitor to finish everything off.

Gregster · 31 May 2014 at 15:31

The couple of days wait for this is worth it guys

Those who have pre-ordered will be impressed when they get it.

And yet I still haven't seen one in action.

I guessed as much, as I have been looking for your review.

Plenty bud. Don't expect to run ultimate settings in all games but high settings with your system will be very easy

Gibbo · 1 Jun 2014 at 03:52

Stock should be here Monday / Tuesday guys and plenty of them

marktruman · 1 Jun 2014 at 15:28

I'm sick of waiting for lg 34" and want to upgrade my 30" dell 2560x1600

question is, can I game at max resolutions with gtx 780 3gb on this monitor?

pgi947 · 1 Jun 2014 at 15:55

Max res yes, max settings no.
