Ok,1- one, the box looks like it had been previously gotten into. Just to explain a little bit, I was watching a YouTube video to help me set it up correctly and theirs had a lot more packaging and protection around at the computer. I’m not complaining. It was still perfect condition. A couple of fingerprints and stuff like that.2-I’m terribly new to using monitors for gaming, I’ve had a console forever and I always used TVs so I had to manually switch a lot of of my console games to performance mode in order to get the 120+ FPS so I was a little bit of a hassle and had me worried at first that I got the wrong one or something.Absolutely zero complaints yet, it’s gonna take some getting used to for the smaller screen (27 inch) because like I said I’m used to using TVs which are pretty big but the quality is amazing and the 120 FPS on Apex legends is almost life-changing.

Great bang for your buck. At the time this was the best priced 1440p 32inch on the internet. Crazy to think I spent 400$ on a Dell 1440p years ago.Love the colors. Plenty of good presets. I found one that is a great balance of vibrance and realistic. I didn't even feel the need to tweak nvidia control panel color settings.Only con was the settings were a bit tricky to get into. Some of the settings are "locked" unless you turn off a few others features. A quick Google search pointed me in the right direction. At least the settings buttons are nice and large, rather than the usual tiny nubs.As a bonus tip: if this is your first time getting an HDR10 monitor like it was for me, windows 10 built in "HDR10" feature is terrible. You'll want to turn on HDR10 on a game by game basis, rather than leave it on all the time.

Beautiful display!!!So many built-in function options in the GamePlus menu such as FPS Counter, Crosshair, and even a Display Alignment setting to adjust corner to corner offset in case it seems off a bit but upon playing around with it it is already set nicely by default.The 1440p resolution is so crisp, also has very vibrant colors, and the true blacks in-game is really good! The default brightness was a bit high but I changed that withing the Windows 11 display settings. Very impressive performance coming from the 180Hz refresh rate blew me away! The 27" screen was perfect for my small corner desk setup.Set up was a breeze with the DP cable that was included in the box and simple to attach the stand. I really like the futuristic and rugged look of the line of TUF Gaming products and matches well with the other PC parts I combined such as the Motherboard, GPU, Mouse, Keyboard, Mouse pad, and cooling fans on my system.I highly recommend this item if you are looking for a smaller size but powerful and price worthy display. Thank you, ASUS!!!

Hay que tener en cuenta que vengo de un monitor de full HD de 60Hz, pero igual creo que la reseña es válida. O sea, wow, que cambio los colores se ven súper bien. Es importante el cambio en la fluidez con los 170Hz. De hecho he llegado a alcanzar más hasta 190Fps, no sé si es normal, pero bueno. En fin, un muy buen monitor, sobre todo teniendo en cuenta el precio

I'll be blunt with my criticism. ELMB (Extreme Low Motion Blur) wont work at the same time as HDR and forces your screen to get dimmer. Do not consider this a valid feature to base your decision on.However, it's an IPS screen with 1ms response. It already has excellent performance regarding blur and ghosting. It's my first HDR10 monitor and it absolutely delivers in this department. Dark areas of games still feel dark but I can see detail. My first test with it was The Last of Us Remastered on PC. Felt like a vast improvement over standard color space and contrast I had on my last monitor.I've detected no latency issues in online games either. I was able to get it on sale for $180 but it still feels like a great deal at $220.Like most people, I feel 27" is perfect size for a display sitting two feet from my face. Setup was very simple. The mount is a no-brainer and frees up a lot of desk space compared with the lazy susan base on my previous Dell. It has hidden VESA mounts if you need them. Enabling HDR in the monitor settings locks you out of most other settings (you wont miss them) so I'd say setup is very easy. It plays well with reference color mode in Nvidia Control Panel, further minimizing setup.

If you're looking for a decent budget monitor, this is a great installment for anyone that is not trying to break the bank, but wants something for multi-tasking and gaming. I was over thinking my options with the massive array of options on the market. Don't complicate it if your someone who is looking for something that will do the job. I was a little anxious with the dead pixel lottery I've seen so many times, but out of the box this thing was perfect and looks fantastic. Do yourself a favor and pull the trigger.

I have had two of these for a little over a year. And love the refresh rate. I set them both at 144hz and it's good enough for me. When I first got them I over clocked them to 175hz... But had issues with the picture quality. They run at 160hz with our issues too.

Great monitor. This is my first gaming monitor and it was a breeze to set up. With the price I find it hard to beat. The 27" monitor is the perfect size and I've notice no lag issues while gaming.
