Wrap yourself in the on-screen action with this Samsung LED curved monitor. The 27-inch 1800R screen curvature lets you enjoy an immersive viewing experience, and AMD FreeSync instantly refreshes and refines images for a better gaming experience. This Samsung LED curved monitor reduces eyestrain with its eye saver mode by limiting blue light emissions and eliminating flickering.

Can't Mount
on May 6, 2016
Posted by: CarrieK
I just got this monitor and LOVE IT!! Except I didn't notice you couldn't mount it.. so the stand is your only option - so beware if that is important to you! I replaced a 22" monitor that died.. and had it sitting up higher on an after market stand.. but this monitor is so BIG I'm OK with it's height as is. Looks great, audio sounds good.. just need to save up now and buy another to replace my other 22" monitor!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

3rd Wireless Monitor
on May 6, 2016
Posted by: CarrieK
I bought the HP - ENVY Desktop - Intel Core i7 - 16GB Memory - 2TB Hard Drive. It advertised you could connect up to 3 monitors, but only came with 2 HDMI ports. After further research (and my husband's help!), the 3rd monitor had to be connected via Miracast. I found on Amazon a "Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter v2" and it works like a champ! Plug into TV, click "connect a wireless display" on PC.. it found it and BOOM! Even casts audio really well.
I also upgraded the PC to 1 TB SSD and use the 2 TB it came with as extra/backup storage. For an extra $400 here is my mods:
-Samsung 850 EVO 1 TB 2.5-Inch SATA III Internal SSD
-Sabrent 2.5" SSD & SATA Hard Drive to Desktop 3.5" SATA Bay Converter Mounting Kit
-Valinks(TM) HDMI Male To Dual HDMI Female 1 to 2 Way Splitter Adapter Cable
I created backup disks of the OS, unplugged PC.. plugged in the new SSD. Turned PC back on and then re-booted to CD to install on SSD. Been running this setup for ~ 6 months without any issues - GREAT PC!
I would recommend this to a friend!
