    Samsung 590D 4K monitor... ?

    I purchased this last week to replace a Monoprice Zero-G 1440p IPS display at home. I'm in IT, and have 4 1440p IPS monitors at work. The Samsung has received pretty good reviews, but even after adjustments, the windows picture just seems horrible. Did I forget how bad TN displays are...
