Review on Dell 27 Inch LED Lit Monitor P2719H 1920X1080P, 60Hz, Flicker Free, ‎45065893 by Tim Luna

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Exactly what I needed at the price I wanted

This monitor did exactly what I needed. I needed a second monitor to display certain documents and applications in portrait mode, and this monitor does just that. Pretty much every monitor actually does this, but you'll need to find one that has a swivel stand or a monitor that has a VESA mount, and You buy a separate stand. So it's basically a $199 monitor with a rotating stand. Now I have the problem and it took me a while to figure out that my solution is to get my Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti to run 1 monitor on an HDMI. connector and 1 monitor powered by the Displayport connector. You might think that's not a problem (and it usually is) - just plug in and go. However, mine didn't work right away. I had no signal on the monitor from the display port of the Nvidia card. Long story short, it turned out that some Nvidia cards (mine is one) needed a firmware update for the displayport to work properly. Once I installed the firmware update (the firmware update is completely separate from the Nvidia driver package), everything worked like clockwork. In summary, I give the monitor 4 stars (good picture, not completely blurry, bad features.) I give 5 stars for the price-performance ratio of the monitor. I bought for $199, which seemed (when I looked around) $50 to $80 cheaper than most vendors selling the same line of Dell Professional monitors (Monitor P). I don't know if this is a good gaming monitor by today's standards. So if that's what you're looking for, I'd suggest budgeting up your monitor by around $400. If you need a reliable monitor for work/office/etc. need, this monitor is perfect.
