Dell Ultra HD 4k Monitor P2715Q 27-Inch Screen LED-Lit Monitor

I got one from my office and one myself. Great IPS monitor with 4K and lots of connectivity including USB for the price. It looks good to me. I use it with Windows 10 in multimedia mode. There was a problem with my geforce graphics card fighting with the newer nvidia K420 card making this look blurry. Took a while to figure out the problem was with the card. Got two of the k420's over display port and this is awesome.Reduced blurriness and high PPI is extremely easy on my eyes during a full day of work. I use it with 150% scaling - I do not regret this purchase. I had a LG 2560 X 1080 which was also good without scaling the problem with that was that this will last me longer without need for replacement and that was widescreen and not really ideal for a programmer.Update: Got a second one for home. Did not expect it to give 3k with my mid 2011 mac mini.AMAZING I AM GETTING FULL 3K 30Hz ON MY MAC MINI!! WOW!! AMAZING RETINA DISPLAY!!!! 30Hz has some lag but still works pretty great...Also my Office Lenovo Thinkpad T450s gives me full 3K at 59Hz on this. 60hz can be set but 59Hz is less choppy. All in all a great monitor!Update: If you are not happy with this monitor - it is your video card. The minimum video card to drive two of these is: EVGA GeForce GTX 960 4GB SSC GAMING ACX 2.0+, Whisper Silent Cooling w/ Free Installed Backplate Graphics Card 04G-P4-3967-KR. So 2 GB per monitor. Do not use $99 Quadro with 1GB for this monitor. Big difference in clarity and it hangs and stutters with the Quadro.

I'm not normally one of those people that writes reviews but I felt like I had to with this monitor after doing tons of research before purchasing it.Before I do that though: Yes, this is a wonderful, beautiful, delightful monitor. This has a non-glossy display and easy to access buttons. Now with that out of the way ...Issues and Explanations1. You're going to hear on a lot of different websites and from reviewers that the monitor has issues waking up which will require you to restart the monitor, wait an inordinate amount of time, try different ports etc. However, what I can tell you is that there are multiple versions of this same monitor from Rev A00 and up to Rev A03. You can find out which you have by checking the back of the monitor.The earlier the version you have, the more likely you're going to have issues. The one that I have is A03. I don't have these issues with this monitor.2. You're going to have to understand that when you buy a 4K monitor the resolution is different. So what that means in reality (especially if you have Windows 10, et. al.) is that you're going to need to adjust the scaling for your display. That means you're going to have to make the text bigger and the icons bigger so you can see what is happening on your screen without squinting. This works better on the MAC but on Windows you're really going to have to do some tweaking. (That is to say everything is really small.) The process for doing this is a little bit different for every version of windows and operating system. So if you hook this up and everything is really small do not panic. Pull out your phone and figure out how to scale the text and icons so that they are suitable for you to view.3. Special note for GTX 970 people (since a lot of people are buying those and 980 for VR): I just bought a bunch of parts and built a computer. Gigabyte G7 z170 motherboard, Intel 6700K processor and so on. I also got an nvidia GTX 970 100 Million edition and it has issues (and it's not just the 970 edition that I have that has these issues) through HDMI. (Weird snow, black bars etc., black screen, grey screen etc.) The HDMI port on it does not like any monitor I plug this thing into. Apparently if you go over to the nvidia forums you'll find people with "HDMI glitches."How does that relate to this monitor? If you went out and got a 970 card and are having issues through HDMI try Display Port. If you're okay with 1080p (then buy another monitor and save some money but ....) this monitor will work with that card and DVI to HDMI. Of course, it won't work as intended.4. Last but not least if you find your mouse is acting strangely when your monitor is at 4K then you should probably check and make sure that your drivers are installed correctly or more accurately that your monitor is at 60 hertz instead of 30. If it's at 30 the mouse can look like it's kind of glitchy or lagging behind a little bit. If this happens reinstall the nVidia driver, switch from HDMI to Display Port and check and make sure your monitor is operating at the 60 hertz capacity.5. This is not a Dell Ultrasharp monitor. This is a Dell Ultra HD 4K monitor. Similar names but the Ultrasharp is the top of the line monitor with the ability to have nearly perfect color reproduction. That's not knocking the color on this one. It's great. Just be aware of that before you buy the monitor.

I have a MacBook Pro 15" Retina (Mid-2015) and I use this 27" 4K Dell monitor as my extension. It has absolutely no backlight bleed. All colors are amazingly clear. I use the monitor for work and I love having all the space to keep most everything on one screen. Over the weekend I brought my PC with an EVGA GTX 980 TI graphics card to test it for gaming at the 4K resolution. The most modern game I have is the new Star Wars Battlefront that just released in late 2015. I had the graphics set to ultra at the 4k resolution and the picture was amazing. It is a pretty incredible experience to play a game on this 4k monitor. It might be overkill for most people. If you are considering gaming at 4K you should at least have the same graphics card I have. It played at average 35FPS at 4K which is a decent frame rate for gaming not the best. If you are serious about gaming at 4K then you probably want two of the GTX 980 Ti cards in SLI to increase your frame rate during gameplay. That would be a very expensive build though. The GTX 980 TI works best at 2560x1440 resolution.This is an awesome gaming monitor if you already have a computer that can handle the resolution at a high frame rate, but most gamers are plenty happy at the 1920x1080 or 2560x1440(2K) resolutions. Where I will 100% recommend this product is for work use. The resolution of a 4k monitor is equal to having four 1080p monitors in one. I can have so many windows open that are all visible at the same time and it increases productivity. I no longer have to switch between windows to enter information from one window to another. Everything on the monitor does get pretty small at 4K. Having the 27" model helps make things on the screen easier to read. I would recommend having good eyesight if you are going to purchase this for work use. I sit about 2.5 feet away from my monitor and I can read everything at the 4k resolution just fine. Most of my co-workers though couldn't handle it. Its not worth the money for this monitor if you can't read emails or webpages at the 4K resolution. Don't buy it just to adjust the resolution to 2K or 1080p either. Otherwise you are just spending more money for a monitor that you aren't using to its fullest capabilities.
