EOD. http://tinyurl.com/pkxnqyb And the reason why it provides no sound basis for your dislike of Dell is that it seems to have no relevance to Dell's present monitors. The OP is suffering from problems of a second-hand and refurbished monitor of a now obsolete type which he had bought three years previously from an unnamed subsidiary of Amazon. Are you really surprised that he didn't get much mileage out of Dell? -- Regards, Eric Stevens |

I am very much in the habit of playing the odds. From what I read Dell has the practice of using whatever parts are available at the lowest price for the particular production batch. i have been looking for a 2nd screen for a while. Holding that aside, from those that I have tested, the best within my budget is not the Dell. I am not mentioning the brand I like, because I have no intention of starting a tool war. -- PeterN |

I don't think Dell are unique in this respect. The ones I would worry about are those who use price as their only criterion. I doubt if that is the case for their Ultrasharp. Even now it's 50% dearer than the next most expensive 24" monitor, except for the new HD range which is way up in the stratosphere. i have been looking for a 2nd screen for a while.

NVidia and Dell Ultrasharp Monitors - (was Size matters ‚ how else could Dell squeeze 15 million pixels into this 27" 5K monitor?)

The current models have the look to produced by the same subcontractor. I have two Dell U2410 monitors. One I bought new and is probably about five years old. The other I bought used earlier this year and is probably about two years old. They are basically the same monitor but have different alphabetic suffixes (which I can't locate as yet). Both are regularly calibrated by Spyder 4 and once they have warmed up you can't tell one from the other. I don't know what you are bleating about. Have you any actual experience of a properly calibrated Dell Ultrasharp monitor? NVidia has brought out a new Maxwell serises of graphics processors of even higher performance. http://tinyurl.com/lfk6o6u or http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/09...says_nvi dia/ is an interesting program on the application of this processor to the reconstruction of of the contentious (allegedly shot in a studio) photographs of the moon landing. The whole program is very interesting (watch it in full screen mode) and will ultimately have relevance to many aspects of digital photography. Why I mentioned it here is that in a couple of places NVidia can be seen to using Dell U2410 monitors for their graphic development. I don't think NVidia would be doing that if they weren't satisfied with their quality. Watch the video though: it's very interesting and points to the future of image processing. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |
