    Right, when it comes out of the box it is pretty easy to put together. The stand is very adjustable. Now for the blacklight bleed, the backlight bleed is certainly good for the price, the performance is amazing, 165 Hz is blazing fast with the 0.5ms response time which I have tested and is actually true, G-Sync is also a nice feature for the price, the monitor is a fairly good size and not weird like 23.8 inches. For the cheap price, the good performance, and the adjustability, I think this is a very good Monitor.

    Good entry level gaming monitor

    So first things first, this is NOT a G-sync monitor. It is G-Sync compatible. Best Buys web site list it as a G-Sync monitor but that is incorrect, a quick Google search will confirm this. Anyway, that aside this monitor is a decent entry level gaming monitor. My 1060 had no issue enabling G-sync for the monitor and setting the 165Hz refresh rate. You'll need to use a Display Port cable, one comes with the monitor, to do get they higher refresh rates. 144 or 165. The colors are good but you can easily find monitors/panels with better colors. That is not the strength of this monitor, it is the refresh rate and for such a low price! This is a common give and take with TN panels and not really a knock against the monitor in my opinion. My other monitors are Dell S2716DG's which are also TN panels and the colors do look better but they also cost about 200 more than this monitor does and cap out at a 144Hz refresh rate. My only real issue with this monitor is that it did not seem to work well with my other 2 monitors. I got this monitor for it's 1080P resolution and the fact that it could match my other monitors at 144Hz or even go a little past at 165Hz. I wanted to use this monitor for my FPS games. The problem was that when ever I played a game on this monitor my other 2 monitors would start to shudder/skip. Even when I played a game on one of my other monitors the shudder/skipping would start happening with this monitor. If I played any games with only this monitor connected it performed great and as expected but as soon as I added both or even just 1 of my other monitors the problem came back. I think the problem was the fact that this monitor is only G-Sync compatible while my other 2 monitors are actual G-Sync monitors but who really knows. I did a lot more troubleshooting but could not get the issue resolved. TL;DR - This is a great entry level gaming monitor, especially for the price. If you already have other true G-Sync monitors you may have issues using then at the same time on the same PC.

    I adjusted the settings to my liking. I play Valorant, CoD, and other games have not had any problems. Glad I got this size and with G-SYNC for this price. Got this size so that one day I can get another and use a dual monitor setup. My friend uses the 27" and she put one vertically and one horizontally.

    Everything I expected it to be for gaming. The higher refresh rate and lower response time are a nice step up from my old BenQ monitor. Colors are sharp and mounting was a snap. Haven't had this monitor long but so far so good. I have read some reviews on other sites that said the monitor failed after a short time so hopefully that won't happen here. As of right now I would recommend this monitor to anyone.

    Great Monitor for gaming expecially battle royale games but the only reason its not 5 stars is because there was motion blur and there was no way to disable it.

    Wanted a second monitor for work (I work remotely) that would also be good for gaming. This is now my primary as it has GSYNC while my other does not. It takes 2 seconds to turn on the GSYNC and gaming always looks perfect. Great option if you want a solid monitor but don’t want to spend tons of money.

    Amazing monitor for the price!!! Was bought for my son who streams and will be used as a second monitor. After some light research 165hz with gsync for under $200 was a no-brainer!!! The monitor also rotates 90°, tilts and turns side to side 90° as well, all very easily but is still stiff enough to maintain where you adjust it to.
