(For the less jargon-inclined, this means it uses 256 levels of brightness to simulate 1024 levels).

Maybe I'm missing something here, but 6-bit dithered to 8-bit would be using 64 levels to simulate 256 levels, wouldn't it? Or do you quadruple the number of brightness levels because of how IPS works?

You're right. I was thinking 8-bit vs 10-bit displays subconsciously at that point, lol. Earlier post corrected, thanks.

(Although to be anally, technically precise, 3×8-bit RGB actually provides more than 2^8 levels of brightness due to the multiple ways you can mix R, G, and B pixels … useful to know when desaturating coloured photos to grayscale. But I digress.)

Slysoft:
Yeah, I've heard great things about Dell's Ultrasharps, but unfortunately for me they don't have hdmi inputs, which I need

kureshii:
HDMI-DVI adapters aren’t that pricey.

kitamesume:
HDMI to DisplayPort works too i think if you want audio, although the dell doesnt have any speakers for it to be a concern.

why HDMI though.
