TFTcentral hasn't reviewed it yet, but I'm surprised they are still selling this for 1k when the 3014s were being sold for 1K back in 2014. Looks like the only improvement is p3 color space, but it's not clear if its a p3 panel or adobe rgb panel, either way make sure you can return it if you don't like it since their 2415 had this huge green veiling all over the screen that was unavoidable and it was unacceptable.

they're selling it for $1k cause its 16:10 and not a Korean no-brand.

Dell's UP3216Q UHD-1 monitor is like just 200 dollars more and it's such a better display over the 3014

16:9 no thx.

the border/bezel provides visual separation from the monitor's surroundings and whatever is behind it. ideally, the bezel should be matte black since your eye is drawn to lighter colors, and you don't want the bezel to compete with what's on screen.

fat bezels fuckin suck and make equipment larger than it needs to be. plus when using multiple monitors it creates empty space between them that shouldn't exist.

altho i guess if ur 3d vision is so bad you get your display confused with the surroundings you might need some kind of additional device to provide separation.

16:10 vs 16:9 mattered when a 21" display was like $2000. now you just go up to the 24 to get that extra height and who gives a poo poo about the aspect ratio.

aspect ratio is critical

shags, I love you, but you don't care about AR when you have that many pixels/ screen real estate.

that many pixels just makes it even more obvious how many are missing
