Considering the best PC store, NewEgg <--clicky, has that same monitor for $509 +$45 shipping I'd say that's a pretty good deal. I have no clue if it's a good monitor..... It better be for that price.

from what i know about monitors.. you're mainly looking at these specs from your link..

Max resolution 2048 x 1536

Dot pitch 0.24 mm

Max sync rate (V x H) 160 Hz x 110 KHz

mainly the sync rate.. the higher the better.. have fun carrying that beast tho.. Weight 68.3 lbs .. DAMN!
