This Monitors give to us some advantages, like this :
1. DVI Dual Link
I bought this when the item was incorrectly listed as having HDMI and display port connectors.
I was able to get a price adjustment from the seller and purchased an "active display port to DVI-D" adapter and was able to get full resolution with no dead pixels.

Note to use this monitor w/ display port, the display port needs to be able to drive 2560x1440.

The monitor does work well but only has brightness controls and can only display in 2560x1440 (it doesn't have scaler hardware).

I did not try the monitor with windows but the EDID reported to Linux was wrong,

I used the following to get the monitor working on linux:

xrandr --newmode "2560x1440_codesim" 241.50 2560 2608 2640 2720 1440 1443 1448 1481 +hsync -vsync
xrandr --addmode DP1 "2560x1440_codesim"
xrandr --output DP1 --left-of LVDS1

DP1 is the name of the display port interface on the laptop and LVDSI is laptop display.
Running "xrandr" with...

2. It's everything I hoped for.
The page doesn't make it abundantly clear, but in the box are: DVI-D cable, power adapter, and socket adapter.

Pros:
-Not a single dead or stuck pixel for me. Nice shiny black case. It worked just great, and the buttons on the back (I'd heard things about the possible quality) are a nice white rubber that depresses easily.
-The case looks like it might have speakers, but this is the "lite" version, so they are of course not present. The real draw of the lite version, however, is the lack of a glass screen (which is good. There's the risk of something being stuck between the LCD and the glass if it had a screen). It still is a bit glossy, but nothing like glass would be.
-I can't believe I've been living my life in 1080p. 1440 is where it's at.
-This is half the price of a comparable monitor from Apple, Dell, or HP.
-I'm taking this to a lan party in just a few hours and I know I'll be the envy of everyone there.
-The colors are amazing...

good price, not 100% quality
i've got a small bright spot near the center of the screen. it's only noticeable against darker backgrounds, but it's still pretty annoying. there's also some bleeding from the top and bottom edges of the screen, but not that bad. all in all, good buy for the price
