    Solid 240HZ Monitor for HD Gaming

    Pretty solid 240HZ Monitor for gaming at full high definition. The response time is astounding, with a constant of 1ms thanks to IPS. I haven’t noticed any screen tearing throughout reasonably constant use over the course of a few months, either. The LED backlighting is handy as I usually edit or game under lowlight area, however, the onboard controls and the according AlienFX software could be more user-friendly for ease of customization. The tilts and swivels work perfectly, although the mount which is advertised in the “features” part of the page isn’t very easy to figure out, if wallmounting should be an option for you. The only large complaint I have for this monitor is that the stand is advertised as being a “space-saver”, and it really isn’t anything of the sort. I play on a relatively small desk, and it doesn’t slide under they keyboard like stated very well

    Upgrading from a 24" curved 144hz monitor and I can see the difference mostly in smoothness of motion even though I'm not touching the 240hz cap. I'm usually running in the 125-185 FPS range. I've always been concerned with going over a 25" size monitor, but when I saw this was an IPS and 240hz to boot I had to upgrade and give it a try. Certainly not disappointed with it. I sit about 27"-30" away from the screen and it isn't too big. I can see now though if I went any bigger it could be an issue, so this is my max size. Great color,clarity and very smooth. Got it at a discount for just over $ 400.00+ tax and worth every penny. $ 599.99 retail is a little steep for me. Nothing really technical in setting it up and really didn't have to adjust much. I don't use the Free sync tech. as I have an NVIDIA 2060 super card and it really doesn't need it. I have no use for the RGB lighting since my monitor backs up to a wall but cool if your into that sort of thing. Appears to be built like a tank and is pretty heavy. I compared it to my daughters Alienware 25" 240hz monitor and I'd say it is just a step up. So if your like me and have been thinking about up-sizing and/or jumping into the 240hz monitor market this is a good one and will be for some time. Put a few pictured below for no reason.

    I got this when it was discounted at 380 so with taxes came out to 400 I must say this monitor is by far one of the best 240hz monitors in the market the 27 inch display is perfect not too big not too small easy to setup and the design is very nice with the backlight and all, I will admit it's a bit pricey but you know alienware is a bit expensive but overall perfect monitor but i would recommend running this monitor with a pc that can put out more than 200 fps.

    This is a 1080p monitor,Great monitor for gaming and any other use thats not 4k,runs up to 240hz that varies on game but does get to 240.it comes with an Anti Glare coating on screen so dont try to peel it off,also it does not have that film that most screens have on them so theres nothing to peel off of screen.comes with cables hdmi and display port cable no need to buy cables.also to get 240hz you need to go to your pc setting and change the refresh hz rate from 60 to 240 to run.

    It works flawlessly as a forced G-Sync panel and the colors are so vibrant and accurate. I disagree with the other reviewer stating there is ghosting on their panel on extreme settings. I have not experienced any such thing. For Nvidia users make sure you go to your Nvidia control panel and set "Low Latency Mode" to "Ultra" to get rid of the ghosting. I do not know how to make it work in a AMD card. Other thing the foot stand is very large so you would need decent space to house it. You can also use a regular Dell 23"inch stand if you want to save space.

    got it for 389 didn't paid full 450 its a great deal The only concern is that there is a bright like on the back and if you have a grumpy wife like me that bright lights bothers her Wish it would of been curved tho so it could match with my secondary Monitor Looks super fancy and love the height adjustment very easy to move up and down Hope if doesn't loosen up as time pass by

    Bought this about a month ago and I feel like I’m not using it to it’s full potential because I am using a PS4 but as of right now it’s phenomenal. Picture is crystal clear. I am ordering parts to built a pc so I will be using it to its full potential soon. Overall it’s an amazing monitor, don’t regret buying whatsoever

    Amazing Monitor - Refurbished x 2

    I bought this monitor refurbished roughly two years ago and loved it so much that I purchased another refurbished for dual monitors. The picture is beautiful and the anti-glare screen is a nice addition. If you are having an issue with the colors being grayed/washed out, go to your graphics card control panel and not just the monitors built in settings. If you have a Nvidia for example, right click the desktop background and select "Nvidia Control Panel," then mess around with the display settings. This embarrassingly took me longer than I'd like to admit to figure out.

    For this price it’s the best 240hz monitor with 1ms response rate that you can find right it came earlier then I expected and it also came in awesome aesthetic box and the monitor itself is really good quality. If you’re look for a gaming monitor it’s a great choice.

    Very good quality monitor, great quality of plastic and the way you mount the monitor into the stand it is very easy. I recommend using this monitor in a bright room because it doesn’t have deep blacks

    I was scared of it being shipped to my house. Upon arrival, the box was still in good condition minus the dirtiness. It was well packaged nicely to prevent any damage to the screen. Follow the directions because I just took everything out instead of attaching the stand and neck together then attach it to the monitor while it’s still in the box then you can lift it out lol. It is a PC monitor so it doesn’t have any built-in speakers so please be aware of that. I use it for my PS4 and will be using it for my PS5. Not too worry about having no speakers since I use my headset anyways. Set up is easy and honestly, picture quality looks great out the box. I like how it doesn’t have any glares as most monitors. 10/10 I’d recommend. Purchased it on labor day so got it for $30 off original price.
