    Morning,

    This was from Hotdeals a while ago but the price has gone down again.

    This is good for a 27" monitor if you only want 1080p.60hz 5ms. Which is good enough for most gamers. Has free delivery as well.

    Dan.

    Good deal. Seems ridiculous that the speakers add another £114

    Great screens. I have the 24" version for a few years.
    This is definitely a bargain.
    Coming in at €120.46 for me due to vat registration.

    :D Of course....but any personal stuff I buy on Amazon I pay with a personal card. Amazon doesn't care about the payment method as long as the VAT number is valid.

    If you were using this, say, to play video, presumably you'd be able to use the audio out to connect to a speaker?

    You would just connect your speakers or headset to the PC as normal.

    If it was for PS4 / XBOX then i'm not sure as I use headphones when I play at my PC monitor.

    No, I was thinking more of a Chromecast or Raspberry Pi. I think it'd be fine.

    I read the HDUK reviews and they said it was bad

    The rest say it is good, For what I said it was good for.

    https://www.guru3d.com/news-story/samsung-offers-samsung-c27h580-fullhd-and-freesync.html


    Amazon have 4 stars on 125 reviews.

    Don't worry about the moaning English a$$holes on HDUK (I know how they can be as I am one) you could put up a Lambo on HDUK for 10 Pounds and they would moan about the fact it has Bridgestone tyres and not Pirelli's

    Blurry text can be down to user setting, monitor I'm using now had brutal text out of the box until I changed the settings and crystal clear now

    I was looking to get it for graphic design. I realise it would not be up to the task of professional standards but currently using a laptop screen. I cancelled but now thinking of ordering again....
    Would it be suitable as essentially a large desktop monitor or is it more geared for gaming?

    What you mean " it would not be up to the task of professional standards"?

    I have one ordered and will be using it as a work monitor

    What's with the long term delivery times? Showing up as 30-60 days.
    Although Amazon has already debited my card, which they normally only do at shipping time.

    My estimated delivery is 14th of September but checking tracking it arrived in Dublin parcel facility last night so I guess it'll take another 8 days to deliver even though its in Ireland? Guess something to do with size of the package.

    I ordered at start of week and estimated delivery was changed from Sept 17 to tomorrow. I'd say if it's in Dublin office you'll get it soon too, either tomorrow or Monday I'd imagine.

    What was your actual dispatch day? I think I ordered on Monday, with dispatch yesterday.

    I'm mainly going to use it for Xbox and an external monitor for my laptop, so hoping it's fine for that. Should be an improvement on my cheap 24" monitor anyway.

    Will you be using it as a monitor? If so, do let us know if there's a blurriness issue and at what resolution you're using it, please.
