On this type of monitor...you need a pretty decent card minimum, I would think...would be something like a Nvidia 560 and 2 or more gig of vram. No notebook or laptop is useable, so they say?

I had the wife's computer hooked to a 46 inch screen T.V.
I tried to tell here...she wouldn't like it. She insisted, struggled with it.
Then a week later....went back to a regular monitor.

I guess it depends on what you're gonna do with it.....streaming vid and the like should be ok.
Well either I go for the alienware & I connect it to the TV for movies & such, or I rebuild a fixed PC with dual 770 in sli and set it up with my 20" screen & the TV in dual setup. But this 27" thing looks quite nice indeed.

Dual/SLI 770's would kick some major butt.
I do know that QNIX has an upgrade from the one I purchased...that allows VGA, HDMI, though it and costs more and may or may not allow the 2560x1440 resolution using those ports?

Though it's only been a couple of days....I'm loving this monitor. Hard to step away from it...lol
I will be overclocking it this weekend...gonna start gently and bump it up to 96hz and then proceed carefully and try to get to 120hz. I'll let ya know, how that goes.

I don't really play a lot of high end graphic intensive games...so, it was hard to justify the expense.
I'm glad I did though, it makes my daily reading much, much easier on the eyes. :)
