> 3 dayDecent monitor for 100 dollars though having to switch between inputs is a bit of an issue due to how bad the menu is on the monitor to change it also the monitor doesn’t come with any speakers so you’ll have to provide your own

> 3 dayI think this is my favorite thing I’ve ordered on Amazon and I love the monitor so much. Everything is perfect and there’s no problem at all. I’m only giving it 4 stars because when it comes to setting up video settings it’s a bit complicated and I’m not very tech savvy but putting the stand together and everything else was fast and easy

> 3 dayI bought this to use until I can afford a better monitor in... a while. Honestly, really good, but keep in mind it doesnt reach 144Hz without overclocking, which does void the warranty still. A much bigger improvement over the old laptop and the screen it had regardless, and gives me a great deal of screen real estate in comparison. I do use it for my gaming setup, but my opinion is probably a bit clouded as this is the best quality screen Ive got in my house right now. The audio jack in the back has slightly worse sound quality than if I were to plug my headset directly into my computer, so bear that in mind if youre hooking up sound from the monitor - cant say if its the same drop in quality using speakers, as I need to purchase some still and have none to test with.

> 3 dayThe price doesn’t even compare to this screen. The picture is so clear and the colors are outstanding. 10/10 from a gaming nerd

> 3 dayLong time getting to me from Texas. But it was worth the wait.I’m new to pc gaming. And I found my tv just didn’t cut it. So I mounted this monitor on a arm mount. Over my bed. It works great because I can’t play games sitting up. So the arm mount is by mount it! Highly recommend. The monitor I had no trouble hooking up the vesa mount. If your concerned about the vesa mount with this. Don’t worry. It comes with all the screw. And even a screwdriver. People say it’s not 144 hertz. But it is. Depending on what kind of pc u have. It has adaptive sync. It’s not technically an official nvidia g sync monitor. My pc doesn’t recognize it. But it seems to work with dp cable.

> 3 dayIts a fairly good monitor, but the options/settings menu could look a lot better in my opinion, it looks kinda cheap. More importantly the speakers do not work what so ever, I went into the monitor setting made sure volume was at 100 percent, switched the audio output device to the monitor with it in full volume and they dont work, I plug in an aux cable to the back and that also does nothing whatsoever

> 3 dayRight out of the box, I was able to place my Xbox Series S into the 120 Hz setting so if you are looking for a cheaper monitor that is compatible with the Xbox I would recommend this one. I have had it for a couple of months now with no issues. Obviously, it is 1080p but coming from a 1080p60Hz monitor it is a big difference. Would easily buy another one at this size and price point.

> 3 dayUPDATE: In the days Ive spent with the monitor now, Ive found its behavior rather bizarre. Within about 40 seconds to a minute of trial and error each time I want to switch inputs, I can fairly reliably get the correct device to display via the following method: By turning the monitor off with the power button during the black screen transition described in my previous message and then turning the monitor back on, I can sometimes get it to display the HDMI source I selected from the OSD before turning it off. My success with this method has been inconsistent. It seems to go back to the Display Port signal source as often as it switches to HDMI. With only one HDMI connection and no others, its behavior is still inconsistent. *Sometimes* the HDMI will work. Often it will not. It does seem HDMI will work more often if only one port is in use, but the monitor still decides to instead power off about half the time I turn it on with just one HDMI port in use. I have one game console connected directly by HDMI cable and the second HDMI port is connected to an HDMI switch, which I operate via remote to change its inputs between a laptop and another game console. With this second HDMI source an extra step is typically needed to get it to display on the monitor: for whatever reason, I need to either power cycle the HDMI switch (which has been tested to work completely fine with other monitors and TVs) or change its input and then change it back to get it displaying on the monitor. Once Ive managed to successfully switch to the desired HDMI source, the display is stable, and sometimes Im even able to switch back and forth between HDMI and the display port source with just the OSD, foregoing the step of powering off the monitor. Ive tried various configurations of settings in the OSD and found none to affect this behavior. Adaptive-Sync, Over Driver, DCR, etc. all appear irrelevant. I have also used the Reset function in the OSD to no avail. I contacted Viotek support two days ago and exchanged a couple messages today before they sent me to their RMA page to fill out the exact information Id already provided them by e-mail so that I could instead start the process over again with one of their RMA agents in 2-3 days. Reviewing their RMA terms and conditions I found they want me to pay for shipping and to insure the shipment myself, none of which they will reimburse. For all I know the monitor I have is working as intended, as when I specifically asked if it was abnormal behavior they failed to even address my question except with vague PR speak. So I dont even know if a replacement would work any differently. Ive opted not to go through with the RMA process, as it seems an even bigger hassle than the difficulty of switching inputs. This could have been a five-star budget monitor, as for the price the quality is pretty decent, refresh rate high, and latency low. But for my purposes of having multiple devices connected, it becomes a pain to deal with. Ultimately Im left wishing Id spent a bit more for something more reliable. ORIGINAL REVIEW: HDMI wont work Connecting my pc through display port works fine. The HDMI inputs, however, do not work at all. Upon trying to change the signal source, Im met with a black screen for about 3 seconds and then it switches back to the display port. One major factor in my decision to purchase this monitor was having multiple HDMI ports so I could easily switch to other devices that do not have display port connectors, but I am currently limited to just my PC. The monitor otherwise seems decent. I havent noticed any major issues with the picture while watching video or playing games. Just wish those HDMI ports werent for show.

> 3 dayGreat budget monitor you have to use a display to get full 144 refresh rate
