> 24 hourMaybe my mistake was getting a Dell monitor but this feels smoother than my last 144hz monitor

> 24 hourSo Im not sure if its considered motion blur, but whenever theres movement in a game theres a motion blur effect. I find it very annoying...thankfully I dont use it and the person who does doesnt care. Other than that, its a good monitor. Nice size, seems to have good color and it supports 1440p.

> 24 hourBeware: this monitor does not come with speakers. VIOTEK GNV32DB 32-inch curved gaming monitor. Nice picture, but I wish it had speakers. Fortunately I have external speakers and the monitor has a simple aux output on the bottom. Be sure to go into the audio settings and turn the mute function off and the volume all the way up. Cheers!

> 24 hourUpdate: Im returning the monitor, and not sure yet whether Ill replace it with the same thing or go a different brand. Issue Im having is input signal sometimes gets lost, and/or takes a full minute or two to respond to a new signal. Their customer service is great so far but it seems I might have a defective unit. Below is my original review: First off I bought the GNV32DB (32 144Hz 2K), since most people forget that reviews just land on the page and we dont know which model you bought. I just set it up and Im not blown away or anything but Im also not disappointed at all. Which is VERY positive when were talking about a sub $300 32 gaming monitor. Pros: -Mine arrived with no dead or stuck pixels; I ran it through a few tests and it passed nearly all with flying colors. The unit I got has little or no flaws. Thats a relief because on virtually every brand monitor sold at every store, dead pixels arent uncommon to see in reviews. -Easy to set up on the pedestal, then just plug & play with minimal settings changes needed. -Picture quality and refresh rate seem good so far. Response time is difficult to test but seems as expected. Cons: -While I seem to have gotten a well-manufactured unit free of dead pixels, it isnt perfect...I do have areas of brightness blotches (backlight seeping through a bit more in some areas than others) in the corners and lower parts of the screen; its only visible on very dark or black screens like while idle and shows up as like a slight cloudiness or fog on the black background. I was going to try to post photos but honestly its not worth photographing because its hard to get on camera, it blends with room glare on the screen and looks a lot worse in photos than it does in real life. Again, only something you notice when the screen is completely black (or nearly). And honestly its not so bad of an issue that Id consider telling Viotek about it, because from experience that just happens sometimes on new monitors and a replacement might not even be better if they cover it. -The onscreen menu is a bit confusing, and the manual that covers the menu settings is very poor. I had to chat with a Viotek rep to figure out how to make sure it was in 4ms(OC) mode for response time, since the settings just said Response time: Off, Low, Middle, or High, so it was unclear which option meant the best or lowest time (turns out High=fastest 4ms). It would also be nice to have more LED settings, like changing the color of the rear red LED, or switching off the blue power indicator LED thats projected downward from the power button (your only option is for the rear red LED: on, off, or flashing). Thats all there is to tell right now, Ill update if anything changes cause these are just my first impressions. I will add that the Viotek rep I chatted with was great, very helpful and quick.

> 24 hourThis is by far the BEST monitor I have EVER OWNED. It out performs my Dell, Asus, Acer, & Viewsonic units. BY A LOT! And it looks better while doing so, both with its design and screen quality. It is absolutely bright and has superb vibrant colors! And mine came with ZERO dead pixels. There is NO lag or ghosting while gaming, and watching movies is super enjoyable. I just cant believe what a difference it made coming from my last 144Hz, 1ms, 24 monitor. This is a whole new ball game! I am EXTREMELY happy that I decided to give Viotek a chance after I did extensive research and comparisons. Now I really want to buy 2 more for a full peripheral setup.....but I am already spying their 32 version.... :o)

> 24 hourThis monitor was a great deal for what you get! The included stand has skiing legs sticking out wide, so I recommend a wall mount or vesa desk mount. Unfortunately at the time of writing, I cannot get this monitor to run 1440p 120hz with my Xbox Series X. It supposedly needs hdmi 2.1 even for 1440p120hz. However, I hear there are rumors Microsoft might fix this. Yes, the monitor is hdmi 2.0, but my MSI laptop can run 1440p up to 144hz on it no problem (with a 40mbps hdmi or greater cable). No dead pixels yet, and it has freesync support. Built in center crosshairs are optional in the OSD.

> 24 hourThis product is overall quite good. The 1440p is definitely a step up from 1080p and it looks great on the large 27 inch display. My only complaint is the stand that monitor comes on is rather poor as it only gives you minimal tilting ability. Also this should be pretty obvious but 27 inches is quite big so if you dont like a large screen this is not the product for you. The onboard software (osd) is also pretty decent. It comes with several preset display options and a fairly logical interface. Overall I highly recommend this product to gamers and anyone looking for a great experience at an affordable price.

> 24 hourfirst off the monitor is well built, and does look good and is truly 1440p with 144hz although the colors are very blown out and it takes a while to get used to as even with tweaks using Nvidia software to get the coloring to stop washing everything out gaming on this can be, blurry at times, depending on the games textures. Deadside seems blurry on lower settings on this monitor, but AAA games, and many other games appear crystal clear, but slightly washed out. Clear as can be at others. IMAGE SHOWS RESIDENT EVIL HD REMASTER INTRO SCENE TO SHOW HOW COLORS SEEM VERY WASHED OUT IN SOME GAMES (mostly older games) Cool built in on screen reticle...that lines up-- in most games that is.. To just put it bluntly-its worth the money, but their is a reason other 1440p 144hz monitors of this size are more expensive. 4/5 would purchase again still
