Q: Is there a connection for speakers?

A: No, there is no output connection for external speakers. The monitor has built-in speakers and two input connections, one for front speakers (the green plug) and one for rear speakers (the black plug). If you want to connect separate (not the monitor) speakers you'll need to do that directly from the computer's sound card.

Q: Does this model have headphone jacks for headsets and mics?

A: No, this does not have that feature.

Q: what is the tickrate?

A: jbenski, if you are asking about refresh rate, it is listed as 50hz-75hz, but I believe you computer will display at 60hz.

Q: How much FPS does it run at?

A: That depends on what video card you have, and what game you're playing.

Q: Is it possible that a computer monitor has 2 hdmi inputs that you could hook up two inputs video sources and run them side by side on a single screen? Does that even exist? Thanks

A: No, this monitor can't display two images from two sources at the same time on the screen. That doesn't currently exist, except for TV's with two inputs.
