As far as I can tell, this monitor doesn’t support 1920 x 1200 resolution. It arrived in pristine condition, with no dead pixels and was easy to hook up. However, I have not been able to get it to work in its alleged native resolution of 1920×1200. When I first installed it, the drivers for an old nVidia Geforce FX 5200 card wouldn’t support anything more than 1280×1024. I found newer drivers which support 1920×1200 (and higher) resolutions and I installed them with no trouble.
I’ve tried using the Windows XP Display control panel to change the resolution. The monitor remained stuck at 1280×1024 and you get the standard “virtual” resolution behavior where the display pans up/down/left/right when you move the cursor to the edge of the display. I tried using the nVidia control panel to change the resolution and got the same result. Note that the nVidia control panel reports the native resolution as 1920×1200, but can’t seem to force it into that mode.
The OSD (On-Screen Display) menu buttons on the front of the monitor always report the resolution as 1280×1024.
This may be a problem with my setup, with a defective monitor or something else. I have a technical request into Asus, but their website sucks and they are known for poor technical support. Thus, until this problem is resolved, I can NOT recommend this monitor.

Put a piece of tracing paper over your existing monitor. This is what you get with this monitor. If you would fly in the baggage compartment for half price, this is the monitor for you. This is the worst quality monitor I have ever laid eyes on. It is offensively bad quality. People always ask, “But did you adjust it?” I spent two hours fiddling with it. Trust me, no amount of adjusting is going to turn this frog into a prince. I think the vast majority of positive reviews are because they’re excited to pay about $300 for a 25.5 inch monitor. Yes, it will display something when you plug it in, but if you care what it looks like, you won’t be happy.

I have been unable to access their web site and unable to registrer my product on their service. There is no phone number or E mail address that I could locate. May be their server is down.
I thought I was buying a product with mic and cam, it turns out that Amazon is quite confusing in this regard.
Monitor does work well though.
I am shocked bty the fact that such reputable company does not have an e mail address to report problems to. I am essentially sitting without warrenty registration.

Finally managed to register for VIP service by searching something on google as their web site for USA showed some strange letters. At one point the “send or Submit button was written in Chinese or Japanese letter. There is no phone number. Their “live” web service could not be reached either by Safari or IE. “diagnose connection problems” came up.
I woul dhate to have to deal with these people considering their web site is so bad.

I bought this monitor to replace a 245BW Samsung monitor that developed flicker problems. Although Asus claims that this is a 26″ monitor, the actual screen size is only slightly larger than the 24″ Samsung monitor, but the quality is SIGNIFICANTLY better. I understand all the reviewers who note that the colors may change at extreme viewing angles, but let’s be realistic. Most, like me, will use this as a desktop monitor and this is not even remotely an issue.
If you are shopping for a large monitor, this should be at the top of your short list. If you need very resolution or performance for graphics editing, the Dell UltraSharp is a better product, but it is more than twice the price – even when on sale. For normal people with normal requirements, this monitor simply cannot be beat. It is a REMARKABLE best buy, especially with the frequent rebates. Highly recommended.

The viewing angle is horrible. I set up the monitor to have my eyes be level with the center of the monitor. When I looked to the top of the monitor. The top was darker then the middle of the screen. When viewing from a angle the picture is really bad.
There is no adjusting the height or and swivel.
