I am looking for a good 27" 2560x1440 monitor for 3-screen PC gaming, and a few folks on the HardForum recommended this monitor.
Have any folks here used it?

Thanks.

Thinking the same. My other thought, the latest 1920 x 1080 120hz 27" 3d unit. Less pixels, but 3d. The 2560 x 1440 would have greater clarity though. The decision based on immersion. My question, the 2560 x 1400 will look stunning, but is 3d worth the swap from the beauty of 2550 x 1400? A lot of good reviews on the 30" units running 2550 x 1600. Thinking seriously of the HP myself.

The HP is fine if you like the super aggressive anti-glare coating. I personally don't like it.

120Hz on a basically lag free panel in 2D would look good also! Don't forget that!
