spec me a new monitor :).

The Samsung S27B970D is on special at the moment:

However looks like it's only on for this weekend, so get that CC out! :D

I've ordered one, but for pros/cons after reading reviews it came down to this:

Pros:

Really stylish design
Glass screen gives vibrant colours + PLS Display
27" 1440p screen resolution
Should be better for screen uniformity than some other manufacturers with backlight bleed being less obvious/less of a problem.

Cons:

Reflective screen as it's glass fronted - remains to be seen if that will annoy me or not!
input lag is higher for gaming than a TN 120hz panel by some margin. So hardcore hardcore gamers might be put off.

I don't really do much FPS gaming or anything so I'm sure responsiveness and input lag will be OK for me. By biggest concern is still the glass frontedness and reflections, but I figure it should be similar to a Mac screen.
