  • Make sure you install the S2721DGF drivers from dell and use the .icc profile that comes with said drivers.
  • Also very important to set the color mode to 10bit from 8bit in your GPU display control.


You can read over 400 comments from last year regarding this monitor in Deal Talk (if anyone's interested):

Anyone have one of these paired with a S2716DGR? Hoping they match up nicely

Update: They do pair nicely, S2721DGF seems to be big upgrade from the S2716DGR.

Quote from bearstampede :
I have the M27Q, which is why I'm so curious as to why people seem to think this is better, but aren't providing much in the way of explanation. I find it hard to believe there could possibly be a $50 difference in quality much less $100 (but I'm open to being educated otherwise).

It seems much of this is based on scarcity, but I've also seen more than a few people confuse the M27Q with the lower-end G27Q, so that could also be a factor. Regardless, I'm highly skeptical that this display is better than the M27Q "in every way" lol--actually, I've yet to see any significant difference between them that didn't favor the M27Q. But like I said: I'd very much like to know if there are any.

dell uses lm270wqa-ssa1 gigabyte uses lq270t1jg08. Even if both monitors use the same panel, personally I would still go with dell. I'd gladly pay the premium for their reputable lcd controller board.
