One Week In, Great Monitor

With monitors, you get what you pay for. I spend most of my day staring at a computer screen, so I was willing to spend a bit more on something that I'm going to be (hopefully) staring at for thousands of hours over the next few years.

My Apple Cinema Display (30") from 2008 had finally died and I was in the market for a 4k monitor; At first, I was looking at the 28" class and $500 class and got a Samsung; It was not usable for me and it was then I learned the difference between a TN and IPS monitor.

I've only encountered one problem and I have one quibble; (1) The problem is that I could not get the HDMI to display at 60 Hz; Yes, I used the proper one of three HDMI ports and my NVIDIA GeForce 960 card is more than capable of supporting this.

My Initial two cents is that the ASUS PA329Q is first rate hardware, and calibrated close enough to max sRGB and Adobe RGB capability to trust and go right to work with out of the box. Which I did.

After all the testing is done can we still call the PA328Q a professional-grade monitor We believe the answer is yes based on its superb accuracy, clear bright picture and flexible calibration system.

Super-accurate color without calibration; bright; razor-sharp image; solid build; good value; Ultra HD resolution

No wide-gamut option; brightness non-adjustable in sRGB mode; poor black field uniformity on our sample
