Last time I looked 30" monitors were well north of $1k, and 27" just
under. This was only a few months ago. Doing the regular year-end
perusal I didn't see 30" at the usual stores but stumbled upon 27"
monitors starting at about $230 (Sceptre, never heard of the brand), to
this ViewSonic for $300:

This is the Sceptre:

I suppose like usual, only online, but not sure. Reviews are great but
are they good for serious CAD work? Any brands to prefer?
1920*1080 is a weird resolution. My PC doesn't have that. Strange.
Well, folks, the Viewsonic VA2702W arrived and I just conneceted it.
Works great. Turns out the graphics card does support 1920*1080
resolution. Doesn't list any Hertzes after connecting the LCD but since
I don't watch movies it won't matter.
Of course, slopes in simulations or diagonal lines do not render as
nicely as on the CRT. As expected they are more blocky. However, the
screen is so huge that I do not have to pan as often when checking
layouts and that was the main purpose of the exercise. It's almost like
having two monitors except there's no gap. So keep'em layout reviews
