16-11-2024first 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

Greater than one weekThis was an impulse purchase for me. I knew I was going to buy a new graphics card and that the new RTX 30xx series was going to be a huge step up from my old card. I wasnt seriously considering monitors -just window shopping and dreaming-, but the price for this one, plus the previous ratings, and most importantly the zero-dead-pixel policy grabbed my attention. Ive been very happy with it so far. The color and brightness are great, the response time is good enough for serious gaming, and it arrived without a single dead pixel. Gaming has been a pleasure on it, although my old GTX 960 is straining a bit at the higher resolution (1440p) while Im stuck on a waiting list for my new graphics card. The only minor issue Ive had is that some videos have noticeable horizontal striping when the recording doesnt quite match the high 144MHz refresh rate. Most videos look fine, but some stuff on social media looks bad. But overall this is an easy recommendation if youre looking for a 2k gaming monitor.

> 3 dayThe good: Picture quality is nice, games appear sharp and crisp, so do pictures and video. So far have not had any problems with tearing or compatibility. Whats not so good, is mainly the speed. Even on the highest settings, I still experience some ghosting and lag in windows and aps. For a monitor that touts a 1ms response time, its unimpressive. The OSD is not the greatest to work with either, its rather clunky. For the money, being a lower to mid tier monitor its decent unless you can afford to spend a few hundred more, then that would be your better option. I have heard a few people complain about the base, but that was the least of my issues. Its been fine, was easy to install, seems stable and tilts at decent angles.

Greater than one weekNot using for gaming. I purchased this monitor for video Video editing and photoshop . And astrophotography Color nice. Large screen with the room to spread out my editing tools. Sharp image. My video card is a 1080 144htz . I was told it would Stretch to fit the screen . Thats not a problem. I presses detect. The card set up filled the screen. The circle are round not oblong no matter placement so i have no stretch. I did have to move the icon on my desktop out sides sides So far i love this monitor

> 3 dayThank you Amazon for wonderful shipping and getting a prefect monitor ..in prefect shape and no damage at all ....unlike one of same I ordered from another retailer whom 3 weeks later hasnt paid me my money back for a used one that I was told was bad new which it wasnt...add in fact it came damaged to me, and took me 12 phone calls to Walmart..then USPS then UPS....all I got was run around for two weeks on getting the package picked up. The monitor is fantastic, colors are crisp and clean....easy set up.... My World of Warcraft game has never looked so good as it does with this monitor now. I highly recommend this monitor for Gaming.

> 3 dayOk, so this is day 1. I realize things may change over time, but right out of the box I am loving this monitor. Zero dead pixels. Beautiful colors and sharpness. Playing Division 2 and the change from my previous 24 Asus monitor is just ridiculous. I feel like Im gaming at a movie theater. I am no expert and dont have any tools to measure things like response rate, but I sure havent noticed any ghosting or lag or anything. It plays super smooth. It defaulted to 2560x1440 when I hooked it up, although at 60hz. It was simple to change it to 120 or 144hz though in my graphics settings. I read a couple of reviews from people saying the monitor was a little dark even at 100% brightness. I have no idea what they were seeing, but this came set to 90% from the factory and it was so bright I couldnt stand to look at it. I have turned it all the way down to 20% and its now comfortable on my eyes. YMMV but its way more than bright enough for me. All the features are working. The audio out for my headphones is fine. Display port and HDMI ports (all 3) work. Picture in Picture works great. i have my work laptop connected as a second input and can switch between it ansd my personal PC easily. One thing to note, there is a Picture Beside Picture option for dual inputs where the screen is halved and you can see both inputs at the same time. It works, but it screws the resolution up where everything so distorted its not really useable. Ive fiddled with other (lower) resolutions but that didnt help much. Maybe Ill try a custom resolution if I can set it. 1280x1440 might work. Overall I am extremely pleased at the initial experience. I was a little worried that a cheap, lesser known brand monitor might have issues but its solid and beautiful. Would buy another in a heartbeat.

17-11-2024Two years strong Used it for PC, PS5, & Nintendo Switch. Color accuracy isnt the best, but good enough for simple/basic color grading/correcting when doing video work. Doesnt matter much when playing games.

> 3 dayBeen using an HD TV for gaming for a few years now. The difference in color and crispness is amazing. Screen feels well made, sits firm on the provided stand (which is metal, not plastic), and overall a good screen. No dead pixels, comes on fast, good picture. Other reviews recommended changing settings on your PC to make sure its 144hz, this is correct. Easy to change. Games will also not always auto set to 144hz so make sure youre checking your settings before blaming the monitor. Maybe only complaint someone would have is its hard to hide the wires under it but thats not super important to me.

22-11-2024I have had this monitor for about a week now and it already has a spot on it that looks like a dead pixel. Also yes I tried rubbing it off and nothing happened.

> 3 dayGood size monitor for 1440p gaming with gsync support, with lots of screen real estate for productivity. I think its a good value. Leave the dynamic brightness turned off, it gets dark when it should get brighter and vice-versa. The only thing I would change is it would be nice to have the option of turning off the rear LED accent light.
