My old 2006 Samsung 226bw finally kicked the bucket and I needed a replacement that could not only match toe-to-toe with its drool-inducing imaging, but exceed it as well. After MANY days of reading, researching, and doing it all over again, I took a chance on this monitor. Like others stated, 144hz sounded in theory to be what I needed (I'm a gamer) but too many ppl having issues deterred me (plus my machine is kinda old...got to have beefy hardware for that refresh rate). What a major amazement to me when I hooked this beauty to my aging 580GTX!! I was actually able to play my games at 2560x1440 without a sweat! What! How! Amazing!! I totally thought I would have had to lower res or game settings, but this ASUS monitor took it all on! I only had to make slight adjustments to the monitor to get it to match the color saturation of my old die-hard 226bw. What is great about this screen is it really can "look" however you want....seriously! If you are a color purest/accuracy is paramount, you can do that. If you like slightly over-saturated colors (like myself), you can do that too. If you just edit and type a ton, there are great modes for that too. In conclusion, if you are looking for a new monitor or another addition, look no further than at this Asus MX27aq. You will not be dissappointed!
