The new Asus MX27AQ is finally starting to show up on some online retailers.

Do you think this display is worth getting instead of the PB278Q? There aren't many reviews of it yet but it seems it may have a better panel and the super slim bezel is nice. The downside is it cost about $60 more and the stand has no height adjustment.

I like height adjustment, but it's your preference. If you like the MX27AQ's look it might be worth it to you. They're basically the same.
