Well, by "old PC" I meant any PC without a M.2 PCIe 3.0 slot, which covers most PCs over three months old.

Any chance the 950 will have a boot rom like the Kingston HyperX (to support older PCs)?

Ssamsung doesn't offer any consumer PCIe SSDs at retail.

Correct. The "Valid" has nothing to do with whether or not there is frame skipping. The "Valid" just indicates that the page is ready for you to assess skipping (either with a camera or with your eyes). If you read these and other forums, you'll find all sorts of people who think they have...

Others have done so, but reported seeing dropped frames (which software utilities don't detect).

That's what you get with the Mac. Microsoft still has a ways to go to catchup with Apple in desktop scaling.

It sounds like you need to turn down the brightness on your monitor.

Having tried both side-by-side for two weeks, I would say: Dell has noticeably sharper text with a lighter anti glare coating, better colors, and better viewing angles. Samsung has noticeably less sharp text with a heavier anti glare coating, superior contrast and blacks, and less backlight...

If you are getting a a separate 27" monitor for a mac, you get a Dell P2715Q. Nothing else comes close for under $1500. More information here: http://forums.macrumors.com/threads/dell-p2715q-and-p2415q-4k-ips-displays.1816805/ If you are getting a monitor for a PC, then there may be better...

As the previous poster indicated, "retina" high DPI displays reduce eyestrain. Thus, a 24" or 27" 4K monitor with 200% scaling will be far better for your eyes than a 40". Just make sure you are using [a Mac] or Windows 10, which dramatically improves scaling for applications that are not HI...

If you aren't using the native/full resolution, you will always have fuzzy text. If you are using the native/full resolution with font scaling, then you'll get fuzzy text in applications that are not high-DPI aware. In Windows 8.1, only applications built for high-DPI monitors look good with...

Scaling for legacy apps has definitely improved in recent builds of Windows 10. It's still not anywhere near as good as the Mac's scaling, but it's a noticeable improvement.

Yes. http://www.dotnetmafia.com/blogs/dotnettipoftheday/archive/2015/04/30/display-scaling-improvements-come-with-windows-10-build-10074.aspx

Two questions for owners: (1) Is the LG 4-screen split monitor software compatible with the Dell version of the display? (2) Did LG fix the issue with the software that was allowing all other software to run in administrative mode (I.e., no UAC)? Thanks!

Has anyone transitioned from a 24" 1920x1200 monitor to this 25" for productivity work (not gaming)? If so, what are your thoughts? Thanks.

Dell employed a new engineering team for these monitors. Dell also used LG's next generation panels, which are significantly improved from the prior generation and a step up from everything else on the market. Other manufacturers will be using these panels soon, but Dell is the first to market.

The pictures you posted don't support what you've written, and what you've said is not true. The current mid-range to high-end displays from LG, Panasonic, Sony, and Toshiba (and Pioneer, before the Kuro line was discontinued) have black bezels. Most have glossy black bezels. I don't know...

Nonsense. A display with a matte grey bezel can make a display with inferior black levels look better than it is, but a display with superior black levels will look better, not worse, with a black bezel. The best displays, in terms of contrast and black levels, all have black bezels. Refer...

Seconded. Our office ordered 8 U2415's and 7 of them have less IPS glow than all ~10 of our HP Z24i monitors. They also have less IPS glow than my own BL2411PT., which I cherry picked from three different units.

Some people want "the best" and are willing to pay for it. In addition, there will be many 27" 4k panels in the near future. Several manufacturers (LG, AUO, and soon Samsung) are now mass producing 27" 4k panels, and there is (or soon will be) plenty of competition. That same cannot be said...

When you through the Small Business site, Dell may still default to the consumer cart at checkout (based on browser cookies). When you go to checkout, you should see a drop down picklist that allows you to select your Small Business cart. If all else fails, use a different browser or delete...

The codes may not work if you go to Dell.com through another referral site. Also, from what I recall, the codes are for the Dell Small Business site.

The monitor arrived today despite the estimated November 12 ship date. Unfortunately, I won't have time to unpack before Friday.

If you have the Z97 Extreme 6, the Samsung XP941 is the only drive to get at this time. More options should be available in the next 60 days.

A 40" screen from 3-4 ft will be no different than a 27" from a closer distance. If you want a monitor for television viewing and gaming, rather than productivity work, I would suggest the 55" or larger for viewing from 4-6". Take a look at the Panasonic TC-58AX800U. For computer use, you'll...

The U2715H has better black levels and usable contrast than both the Q2770QPU and the 2710PT. The current 27" AU Optronics panels (e.g., M270 series) and previous LG panels are not competitive with the new 27" LG "Neo Blade" panels.

Dell regularly has 30% off sales on its monitors...which would put the price at $489.

Thanks for posting. TFT Central anoints the new king of 24" 16:10 monitors.

In OSX, all text and UI elements (for all applications) are scaled to the appropriate size. This is one area where Apple's OSX is far ahead of Windows.

LG only makes the 5k screen in the 27" size (at this time).

No. At last week's event, Apple said they have no plans to preduce a standalone version of the monitor. Dell has announced a 27" monitor using the same LG 5k panel for $2500.

The amount of difference you see would depend on the type of workload. For certain types of workloads, upcoming M.2 PCIe 3.0 X4 SSDs with NVMe will make a significant difference in performance because performance is I/O limited. Even with a SSD, the hard drive is still the slowest component in...

Skypine, I posted the following to another thread, which you may find useful. Initially, the SM951 will ship to OEMS (like Apple) only, but there will probably be resellers like RamCity that carry OEM drives.

It depends. The hierarchy is as follows: (1) M.2 PCIe 3.0 X4 (up to 32Gbps theoretical or 3.2GBps real world max) (2) M.2 PCIe 2.0 X2 (up to 10Gbps theoretical or 1.0GBps real world max) (2) SATA Express (up to 10Gbps theoretical or 1.0GBps real world max) (3) SATA 3 (up to 6Gbps theoretical or...

The Dell USA site recently posted all of the documentation for the U2415. http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/product-support/product/dell-u2415/manuals

The Samsung SM951 is about 30 percent faster and is due to ship in a few weeks.
