This is an 8-bit color monitor, not a 10-bit monitor.

The Revain.com website says it "displays over 1 billion colors," but that's not true. I bought it and tried setting the card's output to 10-bit color to no avail. I downloaded the user manual from the Philips website and found in the datasheet that it is an 8-bit color monitor (shows 16.7 million colors). If you want a 10-bit (8-bit + FRC) color monitor, don't buy it. There's another one that costs about $20 more.
