Great Gaming Monitor
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this monitor! One big positive, power button is on the bottom of the monitor and not the back. I know some other budget monitors have them on the back, so with a multiple monitor setup it's hard to reach the power button. Honestly, I think 27 inch even at 1080p is fine for everyday use and gaming. Unless you have a 1080ti, good luck pushing any triple A titles over 100fps on ultra settings anyways! Haven't had any issues yet and I don't think there will be any issues soon. I've had two other 23 inch MSI curved gaming monitors for 2 years now with now issues. I would highly recommend this monitor to anyone on a budget. You'll be happy! Just for reference, I've had an super high end gaming monitor, the Asus PG348Q, $1200+ gaming monitor, and this monitor makes me just as happy! High frame rates, smoother gameplay, and cheaper on the wallet! Ultrawide is overrated and not as productive in my opinion.

A Really Nice Monitor For a Really Nice Price
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this monitor two days early surprisingly. It was packaged really good and everything was in the box. I upgraded from a 60hz monitor by Samsung and I boy was it a jump. When I first used it it looked way smoother than any other thing I’ve seen. I paired it with a 1050ti but am waiting for a 2060 to see its full potential. There is only one thing however. It is not quite borderless because some of the monitor is not fully in use and you’ll see what I mean in the picture. If you don’t care about that, this monitor is for you.

Q: QuestionHow do i adjust the brightness for this monitor? i cant find anything that can adjust the brightness
Asked by SC.
- A:Answer There is a little joystick on the back of the monitor (bottom right) you can click to open the monitors control panel. You'll need to thumb through to image settings and brightness is in that tab. Hope that helps. (I've also included a few pictures for visual aid)

Q: QuestionHow do I set 120Hz or 144Hz? When I tried to set it then the screen blacked and says “No Signal”. When I set it back to 60Hz then it comes back. And I used HDMI. How to solve this problem? I use this monitor as extending from my laptop.
Asked by Stephen.
- A:Answer is your gpu capable of 120-144hz? a common misconception of buyers of 144hz monitors is that it will display 144hz regardless of their pc's capabilities. if your graphics card isn't capable of 144hz, the monitor will not display such. although, this shouldn't be causing a loss of signal. make sure your cable connections are secure. it could also be possible you have an old hdmi cable incapable of handling 144hz.
