This monitor has been quite the performer for all of my needs. I game rather competitively which is exactly why I got such a high refresh rate monitor and so far this has exceeded every expectation that I've had.
Prior to me using this monitor I used the 240 Hz 25" Alienware monitor for a few weeks and aside from that my main gaming monitor was the MSI MAG24C which is a 144 Hz monitor. This monitor has many more features such as shadow boost and g sync of which those monitors only offered freesync. Also, OSD/settings menu is fairly robust with its overall feature set of which I have only gotten to make use some of it so far. The feature that I used most was shadow boost for competitive games such as CS:GO and it works very well as it has multiple levels that you get to choose from.
As for everyday use, there have been no flaws such as potential readability of text or anything of the sort that affects other high refresh rate monitors. I've had the monitor at 280 Hz this entire time and while it is enabled via overclock where the monitor gives a warning that there may be some flickering most likely for insurance purposes, I have experienced no flickering, ghosting or anything that is associated with overclocking monitors as well.
The colors are the best that I've seen out of gaming monitors once you get the settings dialed in. To get them dialed in I decided to look up a review online where they compared multiple monitors and so they had the settings at the bottom which they used to achieve the most accurate measurements. That being said, it greatly outperformed my much more budget friendly MSI monitor and the significantly more expensive Alienware monitor while looking relatively comparable to my 4k LG monitor that I use for more important work.
My final verdict is that this monitor is quite a good value as a high refresh rate monitor under $300. There are many monitors that are only 240 Hz which are more expensive which makes this a much more compelling buy. On the other end there are monitors which are cheaper than this, but have inferior build quality, less features and once again less refresh rate at 240 Hz compared to the 280 Hz which is quite appreciable once you're used to it.
