Fist gaming monitor
I aore this. Adore it. Plays well graphics look amazing on it. Some games look a bit crunchy but i think that has to do with the game being older and needing a older monitor if you want it to be crispy. Played warhammer 40k on here and its fantastic. Screen is veey bright and luminescent. First pc monitor and i love it. Diablo v looks good on it.

Great buy, very happy
Fantastic monitor and quality, especially for the price. I generally use for office work, browsing, light gaming on console, etc. Wonderful at all of these. If you are to use these for work or casual gaming, they will work great.
