Omen monitor
First omen monitor I’ve ever got worth the money for sure

Superb monitor for the price!
I have to say, this is indeed an exceptional monitor for the price...165hz, large and spacious screen, beautiful colors, more than enough nits for brightly lit rooms and to top it all off it gives you the beauty and luxury of an IPS panel. Personally, I use this monitor for both work and play, and it has more than accomplished what I needed in both areas. If you're coming from a 1080p screen you're going to have a grand ole time when you realize what you've been missing as this 32" 1440p panel has approximately 78% more pixel screen coverage than a 1080p screen at this size so you will fit far more onscreen and for me this is such a huge benefit, and it's very noticeable. The 165hz gives such a smooth experience especially when scrolling pages and moving windows and other objects around that when I sometimes go back to a 60hz screen it seems almost illegal. As far as gaming experience, I do wish the response times were higher, but all in all it's fine and I mostly play COD and some CSGO along with a few other competitive FPS games and it's such an awesome experience, but make sure you have a gpu that can push the monitors refresh rate and keep it as close to the 165hz as possible bc as long as you do this there's little to no ghosting whatsoever--to be honest virtually none at all. I have two builds (AM4 and AM5) but mostly game on my main pc (AM5) which is a Ryzen 7 7800x3d paired with a Radeon RX 7800xt and I get a consistent 165fps at 1440p high settings in many of my games including those listed above and let me tell you it's simply superb. Just make sure you select the right overdrive setting in the gaming tab, I have it on Level 3, it's a balancing act between having too much and too less...keeping in mind if you have it on Level 1 then depending on which game you're playing you will have some noticeable ghosting bc Level 1 is basically the off mode, while Level 5 is the highest/fastest setting, but should be avoided because it will introduce a lot of inverse ghosting/pixel overshooting where you will get faint trails of light vs the darker trails you would have in regular ghosting. BTW I tried this with a test build (ryzen 5600x and a 6650xt) and only achieved around 105-125fps and you can certainly see some ghosting in CODs MW 2019, MW II and MW III, but you can simply adjust settings to achieve better frames at a lower quality, but I always choose high settings, bc otherwise what's the point right? Oh and if you're wondering about input lag--there's none whatsoever, everything is very responsive (mice and xbox controller). One last thing, for those who have this thing for menu control buttons; I love the location and design of the button as it's just to right of the back panel in a diamond shape and quick access inputs are a huge plus. Additionally, the onscreen display is so convenient and easy on the eyes, I wish more monitor manufactures would take the care to make clean UIs without all the hard red or orange colors..this is a simple and clean dark grey background with white letters combination. Ok seriously this is the last "one last thing" I almost forgot about the Eyesafe technology my goodness it's so much better than my previous monitor's take on blue light and flicker..this monitor blocks blue light but not all, by filtering only the high intensity blue light frequencies so you still get your original full colors and not an orange or yellow hue on screen. No flicker at all if you worry and are sensitive to it as I am, bc this panel uses a true 8-bit panel depth and not something like 6-bit + FRC which is just an artificial method of increase colors which will also introduce temporal dithering aka flicker you cannot visually perceive or notice but your eyes will certainly feel it and will lead to eye strain and other discomforts; at least this was the case for me on some of my other displays. But with this panel it's such a joy and comfort to use. And my sincerest apologies if my review seems discursive and confusion...I'm writing this as I'm holding a 2 year old who just loves to move her busy little fingers all over anything on me or close to me (mice, keyboards, my collar, my ears, my nose, my thumbs, etc. haha).

Great monitor
As someone who is in their computer a lot and cares how things look on it, I am very pleased with this monitor. I upgraded from a 27" curved monitor with the same resolution and refresh rate, but because it was a VA panel the picture certainly wasn't as good as it could be. This Omen monitor changed the game and made me feel like I was getting way more than a size upgrade. Thanks to the larger size text is easier to read and the HDR performance is brilliant, making anything from YouTube videos to games feel more cinematic. If I have any complaints, it'd be that the brightness is lacking with HDR on, but outside of OLED displays this is kind of a given and is inly a major issue if you have a computer setup in direct sunlight.
