Hello!
I have bought the Eizo Color Edge CG301W 30” monitor.
I'm sorry to tell that the monitor have a' fan that sounds like a' old Pc , very annoying.
If i have known this I would not have bought this monitor.

That's unfortunate, thanks for the heads up.

May I ask what made you prefer this one for the Apple 30"..?

Apple have a' slight green bouquet in the colours and have a' tendency to show the colours little to light . Pictures which is not very good come up great in Apple monitors that is a' problem when it comes to printing and showing it in other monitors.
Is is not possible to do a' professional calibration with a' Apple monitor.
This is only my very limited impressions, so far.
I had the opportunity to visit YFO Malmö Sweden and check and compare Apple and Eizo .

Thanks, that's interesting. I have never compared Apple and Eizo calibrated monitors, just noticed that Apple monitors look much better when calibrated and gamma set as PC gamma.
I did look at an Eizo monitor though and it looked very calm and sharp and clear.
