As LG IPS Monitor features consistency and less changes in colour temperature, it offers a colour impression identical to that of the original image. You can enjoy lifelike picture picture quality without any colour shift whether you are standing or lying down. It allows you to enjoy any content, such as action movies, web surfing and RPG games for a long time in comfort.

In addition, activate the Reader Mode to minimize harmful blue lights with a simple touch of a hot-key. Spend as long as you want working, gaming, or watching movies without burdening your eyes. Use the convenient and easy hot keys for more satisfaction.

The joystick is a harmony of accurate menu controls and analogue sensitivity. With the fun control of a conventional joystick, its modern technology and design allow for simple control with a pleasant touch. In addition, intuitive UI with no overlapping is easier to understand and select menus.

The UltraWide 21:9 aspect ratio makes movies and games more immersive than ever. Need to get some work done, too? All of that UltraWide real estate makes it easy to view multiple documents at the same time, so you don't need to flip back and forth between them.

The 3440X1440 UltraWide QHD display offers amazingly sharp picture quality. Its pixel area is about 1.8 times larger than an UltraWide Full HD 21:9 monitor, and about 2.4 times larger than a Full HD 16:9 monitor. It provides an efficient environment in using Microsoft Office programs showing 47 columns and 63 rows in excel.

sRGB is the standard color space of ideal color reproduction. So, with over 99% coverage of the sRGB spectrum, this LG monitor is a great solution for professional photographers, graphic designers or anyone looking for highly accurate color.

Multitasking doesn't have to mean shuffling back and forth between windows*. With a single click, the 4-Screen Split feature divides the screen into as many as four customizable segments, two-by-two. Now you can see four different windows at the same time.

The Dual Linkup feature allows two compatible portable devices--such as a computer, camera, phone, or Blu-ray player--to be connected to the monitor, and both can be viewed on the same screen simultaneously.

This monitor's Thunderbolt input/output port allows you to connect up to six compatible devices, moving data between them with incredible speed. The two channels of 10-gigabits-per-second throughput in both directions are up to 20X faster than USB 2.0. Thunderbolt is an exciting innovation for both expansion and premium video display.

The DisplayPort digital video interface is used to connect a high-performance video source to a high-resolution monitor. Thanks to its sophisticated design, a DisplayPort cable can also be used to carry audio, USB signals and other data as well.

These prices will go back to their previous price 9am Monday!!
 
I went with a refund in the end, tried two of those LG ones in total, both had bad back light bleed (second one wasn't as bad but still very noticeable at night during darkish films/games) and the second one also had a dead pixel in the central area :(

Unsure what to do now, wait for this replacement or spend the extra on the asus one... The novelty of a new monitor has sort of worn of now though (originally bought the LG one on the 23rd May) :(

You could be ok and get a good one, if not just DSR/RMA it. OCUK service with my two faulty monitors was superb :)

Unfortunately it seems like only the ones who are having problems have posted about it and not the ones who have got good ones except thareaperguy, he said his is fine.
 
I have the 29UM65-P and it's very nice and i have it setup as my 2nd Monitor ( Monitor 2 )..even though most of the games I have don't seem to have an option for either monitor 1 or 2 , BF4 looks great on it, although playing it at 2560 x 1080 it does look like the game is being " pulled up " ie things are a bit too tall and skinny if that makes sense, also viewing firefox on it is a no no as things are way too small to see...plus any text within windows is also too small any text in a window is unreadable, ...out of the box it's quite bright..but not overly so, although I did turn down the brightness a little, watching films is nice also but I didn't feel that I was seeing anything extra on screen ...it's just like watching a film on a bigger screen

Strange that you find the text too small, I didn't find it any different compared to my dell u2311h except it felt easier on the eyes, sharper etc. Have you messed around with that display size thing I linked in the other thread?

And you won't get any extra footage/scenery from films, the main thing that makes this monitor great for films is that they full the entire screen up so no black bars at the top like you get on 16.10/16.9 screens. Not every film and especially tv show will fill the screen though so you will be left with black bars at the side (essentially the film will display in a 23" 16.9 screen view). You see more stuff at the right and left side in games though, great for vehicle gameplay i.e. vehicles in bf 4 or racing games.

Can't say that I had any problems with bf 4 looking stretched etc. either. The only problem I had with a few games was that a bit of the top and bottom were cut off despite having the right res. and aspect ratio set in the options i.e. watch dogs

From my brief time with the monitor, I absolutely loved it, the aspect ratio, the quality etc. For film watching, 21.9 is just superb!

Tempted to try another one out tbh... just really don't fancy spending the extra for the ASUS one, especially since the majority of the extra cost is going towards the built in speakers, which I will never use!

Mine did turn out OK, the left side corner bleed is a little noticeable, however it's nothing bad and only ever notice it when it's a completely black screen and even then it's a slight bleed.

It's a shame for you, as the monitor is superb, I guess you could give the LG another try at £20 off, surely third time lucky? If not then, try a different make.
 
Are you using HDMI or DVI-D? The symptons seem as if you're scaling 1920x1080 up to 2560x1080.

This!

DVI-D or display port only.

HDMI doesn't support the 21.9 aspect ratio.

PFFFFFFT! I am never lucky with PC/tech purchases!!! :( :p

But yeah, I am tempted to give it one more go, just wish gibbo would confirm about this replacement model though, hate to buy one only to find out a new and possibly improved version is released a few weeks or month later.
 
I use DVI ...I dont like HDMI yuk lol

both my DVI Leads are this

Yeah, HDMI would only scale the image up, DVI-D is what you need and aren't using.
Not sure about text issues and stretching, reset your monitor to default I suggest & try from there, text/images are all OK for me and I have the same model.

Grab a DVI-D cable, never noticed it wasn't at a quick glance.

Edited: Quoted DVI not DVI-D, Nexus' post reminded me.
