Well, I took back the gateway. At first I loved it, and I still think its a good monitor, if only it was $100 cheaper.. The backlight bleeding at first was about the same as the samsung, but some how it magically got worse.. So bad I could see the bleeding in crysis when your in a dark scene (like night)........... If it wasnt for the backlight bleeding it would be worth its $550 price tag (well atleast close)
Besides the bleeding it was an amazing monitor, but theres 1 think that annoys me more than dead pixels, and thats backlight bleeding.
So i traded it in for the HP W2408H (btw you have to buy a HDMI to DVI cable, it doesnt come with one) to test it out.. Let you know what I think after few hours of messing with it , so far so good though, very little to no backlight bleeding (even at 80% brightness) and no dead pixels (that I have found)
