Looks like it. The pics on Newegg don't show any plugs on the back, and being as thin as it is, not sure how it would go into the back anyway. Still a great deal though if you don't mind having the cable showing.

maybe they make a right angle adapter so it would not look as noticeable

Just a warning that this monitor is VERY picky with graphics cards as well. It seems to like DP out on Radeons but my GTX660 DP will not show a display.

Shame about the side display port. Otherwise it would have made a great triple monitor display.

Is there any way to get three of these to work together for a cheap Eyefinity setup? I have a Sapphire HD7950.

I purchased on of these back when it was on sale for $81. It's surprisingly good for being so cheap, but it is also terrible at the same time.

My sample has significant backlight non-uniformity issues at less than 100% brightness. It also emits a audible buzzing noise when it is not at 100% brightness.
