This monitor is great so far. Make sure you use the display port connector if you want G-Sync to work

Everything as described. My PS4 runs way smoother and crisp with this monitor vs my old iOS 4K monitor. Switching to pc soon and this monitor should be perfect for that too with the 165hz and fast response time. I went through 4 different gaming monitors before sticking with this one

The monitor is everything I wanted in a gaming monitor. Response color adjustable height. Tilt swivel and pivot. The monitor is fantastic a must have. I will be buying a second. The one thing I would like is more cross hair options on it.

I havent had any issues with this monitor so far, was easy to setup and i love the range of motion is has with the included stand. it can be adjusted up/down, rotated and tilts. The pre made settings are pretty good too.

Got this as an upgrade from my 60 hz monitor I used for gaming and it's suprisingly shocking at how good it is. I often go into the office next to my room to just look at what it was upgraded from and it's just one of those things that you will not make sense unless you have experienced it first...

Didn't realize how much of a difference refresh rate makes for gaming. This is a quality monitor, love the easily adjustable stand. 100% worth the price.

Hello. I am trying to change display settings, I am trying to change it to 165hz but when I try to change it it only gives me an option to do 64hz, is there any way I can change the refresh rate to 165hz.

I bought this a few weeks ago and it came around the 4th of January. So far the quality of this monitor for 1080p is amazing. I’m currently using it as a second screen for school and as my display for my Xbox.

GOOD I like the brightness and colors. The speed on DVI was very good, HDMI normal. Using an ASUS GTX 1060 6 GB card. BAD Color pixels were off, 1 pixel on the right red, one on the left green, made for some blurring of letters and numbers (HDMI and DVI cables, all settings tried) Runescape and some...

I got this as a twin to my main monitor, and I love these panels. Plenty of real estate, amazingly smooth refresh rate, and a really well made piece. Plus the g-sync functionality makes a great difference!
