Just found this monitor in store for $300 and couldn't find it on Costco's website at all.
Everywhere else this monitor is $400 (Walmart, Beach Camera, B&H, Samsung.com etc).
Costco lists it at 75Hz, all others say it's a 60Hz monitor. Will update when I open it.

Dang!!! Good price. It may be worth a trip to Lewisville from Richardson, a 40 minute drive

I'm actually in Richardson, they have 5 at the Costco just north in the 75

I have this and I find lack of high adjustment and tilting bothersome. Currently I have it propped up on some books. Will probably return it.

Tons in Lodi, CA. Bought it for the dual source PIP/PBP, but disappointed that it only does a 2x 7:6 PBP split, but can't do a 16:9/5:9 split, and 7:6 is a terrible ratio.

Got this yesterday at my local Costco in Austin. Went from a 32" 1440p LG IPS to this one. While it's definitely not as bright, I think the size is much more useful. It's basically like having two 24" monitors in one form factor. Very useful for having multiple apps and webpages open at the same time. While not as bright as the LG I was using previously, I'll live with it until 34" IPS 2k/4k monitors come down in price.

Just got this today and not happy with the faint yellow tinted VA panel -- I couldn't get used to it even after setting the brightness to 100% and use the Nvidia color adjustments. I would rather pay an extra $100 for the 34" LG Ultrawide IPS -- I think you will be much happier with the IPS panel brightness.

I need an ultra wide for work to have multiple word documents open at once. Any word on blurry words for this?

Words are not blurry due to 3440x1440 on a 34" (109.68 PPI, https://www.sven.de/dpi/ and I was able to overclock it to 95 Hz; however, maybe I am so used to 3 other IPS panels from LG -- I am not very fond of this VA panel in terms of the brightness and a very faint yellowish tint. If you mainly use for work processing, you should stick with the IPS panel with PPI > 95 regardless of the screen size).

Is that LG ultrawide you are referring to still available? If so, got any links? Is it the 2560x1080 one? Or is it 3440 x 1440 like this Samsung?

Quote from Rockerslick :
This monitor is great for editing photos and videos. Just make sure to overclock to 95 hz and install the ICC profile.

It looks like an IPS and not a VA panel.

Kudos to Samsung for an exceptional monitor for under $300!

I bought this monitor today. What's ICC profile and how does one go about over locking on a MacBook?
