Great reference ! <| sep |> I wouldn ' t mind burning alive anyway . <| sep |> I spoke with Palm Springs BLM office and they said they typically need a weeks worth of rain to call off the fire warnings . <| sep |> I got S 2716 DG less than a week ago . This one is an IPS panel whereas the Dell is TN . With some very quick adjustments and ICC profile you can get the Dell to look very close to IPS quality . Obviously no matter what , there are some benefits to IPS like viewing angle etc , that no amount of calibration can reproduce . Also the s 2716 dg has a faster response time than this pg 279 q . You might also come across some ghostingmotion blur issues , but as far as I can tell they ' ve been fixed in revision A 03 . For me the price was a huge factor . In canada this asus is almost $ 1200 and the s 2716 dg was on sale for $ 699 , so the choice was obvious . With this sale price , I ' d probably suggest the asus because of the IPS panel .
