Samsung U28D590 mini review

I would be gutted if that happened to me. No idea what would cause that either
That, the TN panel, and graphical glitches on the Mac Pro is making me go for that love 34" LG IPS panel.

If the flicker / signal loss issues are with the shipped in the box DP cable than that's really sloppy of Samsung and Asus.
I wasn't using in the box cable I was using mini do to do cable I had.
And risk having light bleed plus ips glow. There is no perfect monitor
Sorry for late reply, wasn't online much over the weekend.
Cheers to both of you for the insights. I have stopped playing FPS at any sort of competitive level, so the 120hz and super fact response times aren't as much of an issue as before.
Just reading up more about 4K and it seems that windows isn't quite ready just yet.
hmmmm, decisions, decisions!!

It's fine on win8

What about desktop apps like AB? Are they still small or is there a way that 8 makes them bigger?

Hmm... has anyone seen extremely fine lines flicker across their panel at times? it happens very rarely.. not sure if the DP cable is low quality or not. Its not very noticeable.. I have to keep looking at the monitor for more than 10 minutes before seeing one of those lines go across the panel. Doesn't happen in game, just on desktop mode..
Dunno about the Samsung/Asus but my AOC 4K panel seems to have some kind of built in power saving functionality that kicks in after 15 minutes of low activity (never happens in games) which was cause a popping sound and display flicker similiar to what you describe, putting volume to 0 (don't seem to have a mute option) seemed to solve it.
I can't say I have seen that but the DP does feel a little cheap. Another bug for me is when the monitor goes into power save mode and I wake it, all my open folders and browsers are all small and tucked in the corner. Not an issue as such but a little meh at times.

Mine didn't but mine did come from Korea 2 months before a UK release 
It uses a power brick which should have a UK plug.
