I bought my Dell U2711 monitor about 2.5 years ago and it has been (and still is) the one crowning jewel of my PC setup. Working on a 27" monitor with a 2560x1440 resolution is truly a pleasure. The biggest drawback however, is that you need a pretty powerful GPU to keep games running at that native resolution. But, on the upside, at 1440p you do not need to use Anti-Aliasing, so that frees up some GPU horsepower.
