2407wfp Windows 7 driver I can't seem to find the driver for this 3 year old monitor for Windows 7. Although the monitor displays just fine, the flash card reader no longer works.
I am considering upgrading from my 2407WFP for use on a 2015 MacBook Air. The Thunderbolt 2/Mini DisplayPort is capable of 60hz 4k (from reviews when the MBA came out anyway) so that is my target. The Dell is an 8-bit S-PVA panel, 1920x1200, no dead pixels, zero glow of any kind. It's a good display and nothing is really wrong with it except age and pixel density. I do like the 16:10 aspect ratio.
I'm looking for 27', maybe 28' but no bigger. 8bit+FRC or 10bit optimal but 8bit at the least required. IPS or AHVA is my thought. HDR optional as the Mac wouldn't support it anyway, but I might like to use monitor with my PC. Similarly G-Sync might be nice but not required, as would HDMI 2.0 or 2x DP so I can use the monitor's inputs to switch between PC and Mac. Cost is somewhat flexible but I think the Acer X27, Asus PG27UQ and Dell UP2718Q are way overkill for this application.

I'm worried that IPS glow may be a deal breaker for me. I also want to order from someplace where I'll be able to return the display if there are any dead/stuck pixels or excessive glow.
Here are the displays I have encountered so far:
Asus PG27AQ - looks like a great display but lack of HDMI 2.0 is annoying on a 4k 60hz display. Could use DP switch. 10bit is a plus. This is actually AHVA right, not IPS? IPS glow?
Acer XB271HK - lower cost than Asus, how does this compare?
LG 27UK650-W - has pretty much the features I am looking for at a low cost but apparently IPS glow is common. This is a problem for me as dark scenes are exactly what I would like to see from my PC, and that would be distracting even on Mac.
Samsung UH750 - Quantum Dot but TN. Don't think I could go to TN for this. Specs say it is 1B color, is it actually 10bit?
ViewSonic VP2780-4K - looks nice, HDMI 2.0, 10bit color, calibrated with 14-bit LUT. How is this brand?
BenQ BL2711U - looks good on paper, HDMI 2.0, 10bit color, not necessarily comfortable with BenQ brand.
Monoprice 24658 - two DP inputs, zero dead pixel guarantee, not really familiar with Monoprice. Is this 10bit?

Any opinions or other suggestions? Should I wait until 2407WFP dies? Thanks.
