2560x1440 led-backlit PLS monitor

Roughly comparable to the multi-input Korean models or the Microcenter Auria, but from a first-party manufacturer. Probably has a better stand, also. And built-in speakers. 3-year warranty.

PLS is something like IPS in terms of quality.

Irrelevant question, since I can't afford it, but I'm curious so I'll ask anyway...what would it take to drive three of these?

Good deal either way :thumbsup:

Wow. Two 690s can't really be necessary, can it? That's $2850ish just for for the GPUs and monitors...

Anand was able strain a quad Titan setup with one 4k monitor at max settings. A triple setup of these has 33% more pixels. Two 690's may not be required to game at lower settings, but if you could afford a triple setup of these you're unlikely to be satisfied with the performance provided by a lesser video card setup.

It's also consistently $555 at B&H. Bought mine from them a couple weeks ago. Great monitor, I love how the matte anti-glare coating doesn't sparkle at all, yet it's still quite effective. OSD navigation sucks, but that's really not something that should influence a buying decision.

My particular panel has no dead pixels and typical backlight bleed.
