Hi All,
I have had the new monitor (Samsung U28D590DS 28 UltraHD) out of the box
and plugged it in for a week.
I was just about ready to take it back to the store as it was not working,
but then I found the single black on black “JOG Button” on the back of the
right hand side of the monitor
I'm happier with my Samsung U28D590DS each day.
I didn't have a problem finding the Jog thumbstick on the back, I think I
saw it while setting it up, but yeah, black on black is kind of easy to
miss.
I'm running 4 screens off one graphics card. Almost with no issue, I had to
set one of the
To be honest, Windows still has a way to go before they have the scaling
issues sorted out. There's big push for more pixels per inch, which makes
the images look fantastic, but naturally this increases the resolution
which makes the default fonts smaller. The scaling can be done to
everything or
How do people find the font sizes for programming/web surfing with such a
high-resolution? I know you can make the editor fonts bigger, but what
about menus/etc? How does Visual Studio look?
After getting my Dell I think I posted in here to remind people how
important it is to write apps

Your Dell was no doubt an IPS panel (I don’t think they do TN panels),
whereas the Samsung is a TN panel so that would make up a for quite a bit

Ah! I wasn't aware of the details of the difference, but a quick search

Just an update on this new Samsung 4k monitor (U28D590D), I used it in
2560x1440 for a while due to the fonts looking blurry and not being used to
the small fonts. Few days ago, I tried it back in its native res and
started getting used to it. I usually RDP to my laptop and spend most of my

Oh I just found a sharpness setting in with brightness and contrast which
has helped. Much more usable now. I think the 30 is still crisper in
comparison but at least its a lot closer now.

Well that's an easy choice!
The Hawaiian holiday has a much shorter life span and will cost you (loss
of income) during its usage period.
The monitor will make you more productive (more efficiency = better usage
of resources and higher productivity increasing income) and should last for
years to

It should easily pay for itself in its life span, as well as make you a
happier developer, adding years to your life span and potential lifetime
earnings. I say it's a bad business decision to NOT get it.
Then the only answer is to buy one and use it in Hawaii -- *Greg*
Or... buy two monitors!

Dave, I blame you entirely.
I got the monitor (Samsung 4K) and have mixed results. It's entirely
dependant on what your graphics card can do.
When I plug it into my desktop (sporting a GTX690) it only seems to support
2560x1440. That said there is a box to enter a custom res which I can
