Re: [OT] Samsung U28D590D 4K Monitor

I'm happier with my Samsung U28D590DS each day. I didn't have a problem finding the Jog thumbstick on the back, I think I saw it while setting it up, but yeah, black on black is kind of easy to miss. I'm running 4 screens off one graphics card. Almost with no issue, I had to set one of the screens

Hi All, I have had the new monitor (Samsung U28D590DS 28" UltraHD) out of the box and plugged it in for a week. I was just about ready to take it back to the store as it was not working, but then I found the single black on black “JOG Button” on the back of the right hand side of the monitor an

There's big push for more pixels per inch, which makes the images look fantastic, but naturally this increases the resolution which makes the default fonts smaller. The scaling can be done to everything or s

Just an update on this new Samsung 4k monitor (U28D590D), I used it in 2560x1440 for a while due to the fonts looking blurry and not being used to the small fonts.

Dave, I blame you entirely. I got the monitor (Samsung 4K) and have mixed results. It's entirely dependant on what your graphics card can do. When I plug it into my desktop (sporting a GTX690) it only seems to support 2560x1440. That said there is a box to enter a custom res which I can select 384
