I was disappointed with the depth of color when I first hooked it up... the whole display looked a bit hazy on Windows 10 compared to my old Samsung display. However, I looked in the Advanced Display Settings in Windows and found that it was running at 60 Hz by default. I bumped it up to 144 Hz and that somehow made the colors much deeper and true-looking. Color depth is now similar to my Samsung display, except now with a much higher refresh rate. If you are disappointed with a haziness in your new display, check to see what refresh rate it is running at.
I tried some gaming and am very pleased so far. I can't use the Freesync feature since I have an NVidia GPU and I didn't want to pay for G-sync. However, I enabled V-sync on the games I played and experienced absolutely no screen-tearing and great response, with no noticeable hit to FPS. And 144 Hz is a definite improvement over 60 Hz.
One other thing to note: there is virtually no physical bezel on the top and sides of the monitor. However, there are apparently no actual pixels for about a quarter inch from the edge of the display on the top and sides, which gives it a sort of "soft" bezel. Not a big deal for me, as I just wanted a 27" monitor with a faster refresh rate than I had, but be aware that when you hook it up, the display doesn't really reach the virtually nonexistent bezel. The bezel that is there is like a brushed/matte looking material, as is the screen itself, so there is no noticeable reflection from any surface of the monitor... which is another plus.
Overall, I am very pleased with this monitor, especially considering the price I paid for it.
Only buy this monitor if you know exactly what you're doing and are a computer expert like I am. If not, you'll run into nothing but hassle and problems.
BTW, contrary to other reviewers, the integrated speakers are excellent for an apartment setting where subwoofers and extremely loud sound would be disturbing. If you want bass and loudness, get a pair of 7.1 headphones.
What's nice about the integrated speakers is that they don't disturb the neighbors, are loud, and allow me to take the headphones off when not gaming.
Excellent monitor, just not for the amateur.
If you want to have a decent monitor then this is the one for you.
If you are a snob about video quality then go with the ACER Predator series.
EDIT: Turned out to be an issue with a graphics driver and not the monitor. Monitor is great...still working as intended!!!
I would love to have these features in a bigger monitor with newer features like QHD, but this monitor just works and looks great.
Top reviews from other countries
For the price you are paying, this monitor is awesome if you are looking to game at a good refresh rate and are fine with 1080p / can't run higher on your specs. If you are thinking to use the built-in speakers, don't. Like most monitors, they sound pretty bad and have little volume levels. Just buy some cheap dual speakers to put on your desk.
The only issue with this monitor I have noticed (this might be a windows issue not an issue with this monitor) is when it goes to sleep after display timeout in windows (if you have that on) sometimes when it wakes back up exactly half of the screen vertically is just black. The mouse can go there into oblivion. Thankfully, this goes away immediately by just turning the monitor off and on.
