    Hands down - This is an amazing monitor. I purchased the MSI variant Nvidia 1070 GFX card which paired with it perfectly. Brilliant colors, defined darks, and was able to adjust to color standards in minutes with the straight forward menu system.Note: HDMI and Sound - If you are utilizing HDMI for the built in speakers, I have found this to be a bit buggy. The sound will at times discontinue and requires an unplug and replug of the HDMI cable (My device being the XBOX One). I, however, do not utilize the built-in speakers as I have Astro A40 headphones. DVI is definitely my recommended port for your PC if you have that available. Let's face it, if you're buying this monitor, that's what you'll be using. (This does NOT effect my 5 star rating. It's a monitor, not a sound system.)Game Capture Card: I currently use the AVermedia Live Gamer Portable for my XBOX One to this monitor and it has worked perfectly.Bottom Line: As a Streamer and Content Creator, this monitor simply performs at beast mode consistently. It switches easily between DVI (My PC) and HDMI (My XBOX One) seamlessly and delivers the top notch performance I unequivocally expect from the Asus brand.Side Note: I am purchasing this monitor AGAIN today. Why? Because it's worth having two. Seriously.
