Looks good in all specs but Color Gamut, which is just disgusting. You should look at these, both are good LCD monitors for color reproduction and contrast ratios. Only thing you really have to worry about is the backlight bleed on these cheaper end models (most IPS monitors cost twice this much): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236122 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824005230
Ya I've had my eye on the ASUS screens for awhile. Not going to be until Oct. at the earliest any way so I'm in no hurry.
I wanted to buy a 3D TV. That tech with the split screens sounds awesome. If Sony could do that with their bigger models I might end up buying Sony instead of Vizio.
