(More customer reviews)I got this monitor to replace my dell 2208wfp. It was a toss up between this one and the Samsung P2770H. I chose this one because of the 1ms response time, and the greater contsrast ratio. The Samsung is 50,000:1, 1000:1...Viewsonic is 100,000:1, 1200:1. Windows 7 recognized it right away and the color out of the box was very good. You can change the Image Color Temperature so I set mine at 7500k because i like the screen to look a little darker for playing games, default is 6500k. Set up was very easy, just have to screw on the stand, no tools required, just slide the stand on and turn the screw with your fingers ( theres a little tab dealy attached to the head of the screw )and your ready to go. The stand is very sturdy, no fears of it tipping should you feel the need to slam your hands down on your desk in frustration, push youself back from the desk, or from smacking your hip/leg/foot on said desk. If you wall mount it you won't have any of these issues. But alas, i have a corner desk so no wall mounting for me. I don't use the monitors speakers so i have no comment about them. Well maybe one thing, i used the onscreen options to set them to Mute. Helpful huh? Oh also under the Manual Image Adjust theres a box to turn on Dynamic Contrasting. I turned this on and it auto sets the contrast and brightness for you. Im not one of those people who likes to mess around with every little video setting, trying to get the "perfect" picture. Color temp to 7500k, Dynamic Contrast on = awsome picture...... in my opinion. You may not like it, so feel free to go nuts playing with the color settings. Theres a Memory Recall option that will restore the factory settings should you over indulge. So far ive played some starcraft 2, mass effect 2, dragon age, and i even played some star wars battlefront 2 just to see how the old graphics looked, and ive come to the conclusion that this is a great monitor...and its Huge. I remember thinking my 22" was big when i first got it ..but this thing is really big, i love it. Every time i walk into my computer room and see it i crack a smile and say to myself, " that is a big screen" I hope this is the last monitor i will have to buy for a looooong time. I dont think id want a bigger one, and its 1080p, so im hoping theres no breakthrough in holographic tech in the next 5 -10 years. Sigh...but if there is ill buy it. So in short, great monitor for gamers. I should also mention im basing this review off using the DVI input. I will have a new gaming rig soon and will edit this review to touch on hdmi difference,if any, and how bluray movies look.
Edit: OK so Hdmi looks alot worse than Dvi. Text is fuzzy and picture is not as good. I asked the guys that i had build my new pc and they said it has something to do with the shielding within the cable. So if you run this monitor with Hdmi and dont think the picture is awsome, switch to a Dvi before getting upset. Also using Hdmi cable the picture is too large for the screen, you can barely see the bottom right corner of the recycle bin and the toolbar at the bottom is gone. You may think thats not a big deal until you try the Auto Image Adjust and find out its grayed out so you cant even adjust the screen. Yes you can go into your video card setting and resize the screen, but, just use the DVI, picture and text is way better.
Edit #2: Bluray movies look fantastic. Now that ive had this moniter for a few weeks i am still as impressed with it as i was when i first got it. A few more things i would like to add that i left out. First, the screen is matte not glossy. Huge difference if your in a room with alot of sunlight. My old dell was so glossy i couldnt even wear a white t-shirt without getting a reflection off the screen. Next is you can change the response time of this monitor in the Manual Image Adjust. I thought it was set to its fastest by default , but it wasnt. It is now set to Ultra Fast. I'm running 2 Nvidia 465gtx in sli. Thats all for now.
