After a good bit of research I went ahead and ordered this monitor. How do you guys like it as far as the contras/brightness/ghosting/input lag?? Also how far away do you guys set from it?

You made a great choice, especially if you are going to game on an IPS (like in said in your old thread). I sit 0.5-0.8 m away.

It's an awesome monitor and I love it. I do a lot of graphic design work so I need a solid monitor with accurate colors and good back lighting. This monitor has all that and it's a great IPS model for the price. I sit about three and a half feet away from mine.

Solid monitor. It's not 120hz so some gamers will scoff at it, but it's a great quality IPS panel that's easy on the eyes. I have three of these together as my primary workstation/eyefinity rig. The only reason I'm not running them now is because I upgraded to u2711s.

True refresh is about 15ms which is not the fastest out there but fine for a 60hz display. Color accuracy is great, viewing angles are great, portrait display option with the built in stand is great, LED backlight means you won't have to replace a CCF tube in a few years, etc, etc.
