26" Hanns-G monitor on the Egg - to buy or not to buy

[Lazlo Panaflex]

Hey guys, debating whether to get this monitor or not. The number of reviews with dead pixels makes me pause, though. Newegg reviews aside, how is Hanns-G quality in general? Would be doing a lot of gaming on it. It's a monster...26", 1080p

thoughts?

Edit: Caved & bought it

Anyone who has had/got a 27" 2560x1440 will tell you a 27" 1920x1080 is a terrible decision. Anyone who a 27" 1920x1080 whos never seen a 27" 2560x1400 will tell you they are amazing.

I have neither though

not sure what your point is?

The short screen is very often not accommodated well, cutting stuff off the bottom in games and web pages. I just stopped using a 1440x1050 that I had on a media pc (has HDMI for bluray playback preview when the big screen isn't on). Its fine for watching a movie, generally terrible for text or web stuff or games.

I got it hooked up, and it has a dead pixel gonna try to revive it. It's a pretty nice monitor otherwise.
