Nice! glad to hear ...
It's the Silverstone one here on Ocuk.
Decent for 67 quid. Though it needs to be off-center to get the monitor further back, and if centered you also need a lot of space behind desk due to its design.
Don't mind it being off centre as you can't really see it anyway with this screen.

Awsome! thanks
- btw so the monitor has a 24ms input lag; if I compare to what my current yamakasi catleap does (which I have no issues with fps games or fast movies etc) - is my catleap 8ms or 22ms? - cant figure it out (seems lots of panels use the LG screen but unsure what the actual lag is).
Good stuff.
Think it confirms how was feeling about this screen in comparison to the Sammy 32 inch.
Am very happy with it over all.
And yeah, you get used to the size very quickly
the lag wont be listed in the specs. the 8ms figure in the spec is for response time. I expect the Catleap has around 1 frame of lag too, most 27" models with scalers do
Delicious!
Thank you so much , Happy Christmas to you too .
So badass, been going over your review a bit more.
Am I right in gathering that using the smart uniformity setting, I get to reduce the brightness without the screen enabling pwm?
If so, what does this setting do to achieve this uniformity?
Must say though, that contrast ratio of 5600 at 100 brightness has me tempted to just leave it there, but it can be a bit blinding

Just tried those settings on tftcentral...
Made viewing black text on white background a massive improvement.
In fact was just about to add to the thread that the negative impressions were starting to come through with this screen, in that text was harder to read in terms of clarity than on my old Dell U3011, those settings have made a good difference, not perfect but my eyes aren't burning and squinting now.
(I will add that my eyesight isn't top notch, I'd imagine that for most people with good eyes, these settings would bring text and whatnot into line with being very good).

Sorry for the triple post but just wanted to say that tftcentral review is of the absolute highest quality.
Thanks indeed, although a bit of a sour taste at the end where it lists the MSR of £689.99, I'll say no more on that but it really is an outstanding technical quality read and will mirrors exactly the the issues and qualities that I've personally and I'm sure others will have from the monitor.
Probs the best no nonsense monitor review I've come across for a long time.

Tried those settings, and everything looked a bit brown to me.
Tried the smart uniformity, and it seems to crush blacks a bit, and can't find a way to correct for that, so probably just going to go for standard.
the standard RGB 100,100,100 give cool tone. the setting from tftcentral is more warm.
I see, all subjective I suppose
Where is the "SmartUniformity" option though? Can't see it in the OSD
