GSync
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this monitor. I bought 2 so that I could run a dual monitor set up and was not disappointed. It was easy to do the 165Hz overclock on the monitors and setting up the GSync was simple as well. It is smooth and runs just the way I was hoping.

Ultra-responsive display with good color accuracy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is by far the smoothest and most responsive monitor I've ever used. I'm using this with a GeForce GTX 1080 Ti graphics card and it gives me a truly immersive experience with all of the games I play. Once you experience a 144+ Hz monitor with variable refresh rate technology, you won't want to go back. Input lag is practically nonexistent. The 1440p resolution brings out extra details in games while also improving my productivity. (I recommend setting DPI scaling to 100% to make the most of the added desktop space; the pixel density isn't high enough to make text hard to read.) Despite the TN panel, color accuracy is actually very good. It won't match a professional monitor for color-critical work, but it comes close, especially after calibration with a colorimeter. It helps that this monitor has a true 8-bit panel, which is relatively new on TN displays. Blacks are nice and dark, and there's no backlight flicker (unless you use ULMB, which uses controlled flicker to reduce apparent motion blur). If you're in the market for a 1440p gaming monitor with all the performance of a high-end 27" display but in a more compact form factor, you will not be disappointed.

Most well-rounded monitor out there
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pros: -1440p on a 24 inch display looks downright gorgeous, really crisp and overall a pleasing sight. -165hz is the biggest reason for purchasing a monitor such as this, as it is the highest refresh rate you will find on a 1440p monitor. -Colors are very good looking out of the box, can be tweaked to near perfection with a combination of options in the OSD and Nvidia Control Panel. -No backlight bleed, which is something you will mainly find on IPS displays anyways but I have read reviews where people did get it on this monitor, perhaps its a rare thing? -No clouding (cloud-like white patches on certain areas of the screen), viewing dark scenes in games or movies looks natural and not off putting in anyway. -Gsync, one of the best technologies to have on a monitor these days. The perceived smoothness you get from using this is amazing, regardless of how low or high your framerate is. It is also much less buggy than Freesync, well worth the "gsync tax" the AMD cultists talk about. -Bezels on this thing are T H I N N, not to mention the whole monitor just has this really clean look that doesn't scream "XTREEEEEME GAMEEEEER", it's more like a subtle "Hi, I'm a monitor". -PRICE, for what you get you just can't beat it, period. Cons: -Power button/LED is a bright white and can easily be seen when using the monitor, and there is no way to turn it off in the OSD. Best fix I know of is to take a piece of black electrical tape and slap it over the LED. -When the computer is shut down or the monitor loses signal in general, it takes a good 30 seconds for the screen to actually turn off. People have told me to turn off power saving mode, but there is no difference between it being it on and off other than the message displayed for the first 15 seconds. Final Thoughts: For roughly the same price of this monitor, you can go with either 1080p 240hz or 4k 60hz, you sacrifice resolution for refresh rate or refresh rate for resolution, and in my opinion you will not regret going with the middle ground of 1440p 165hz.

144hz/OC 165hz + G-Sync under $400
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great monitor for gaming! I’m normally an IPS guy due to the more vibrant colors however for dedicated gaming you CANNOT go wrong with this TN panel. Next to an IPS panel, colors may look washed from different angles but that’s the nature of TN panels as you will not be affected while sitting in front of your screen. Also, TN panels make things easier to see in dark places in games which makes things easy to see in games. Botton line, there are better monitors out there. But if you want the sweet upgrade from 60hz to 144hz and up with G-Sync under $400. Look no further!

Amazing monitor!!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I tried out TitanFall 2 with it at 60hz and wasn't impressed. The color was clear and crisp...but...something was off. Turns out i needed to bump that up to 166MHZ and WHAT A DIFFERENCE! Such a great monitor for my size space. Definitely recommend to people with a Nvidia video card to take advantage of the GSync.

Hands down one of the best gaming monitors ever
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.1440p and 165hz paired together in a panel that has an amazing color range makes this one of the best gaming monitors on the market for 1070, 1080, and 1080ti owners who feel like playing fps games on a 1080p is wasting the potential of your GPU

Fantastic 144Hz for the Price
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the 24" version and returned the 27" due to being used to using a smaller screen for gaming. This is a great monitor for the price and comes with G-Sync as well. The pixel ratio is also very sharp due to being a 1440p on a 24" screen. My two complaints would be that a vertical line in the middle of my monitor would sometimes appear on the right side edge of my monitor. I'm not sure if this a hardware issue, but I fix it by turning the monitor off and on once. My other issue is that due to being a TN panel, I didn't enjoy the color production and you would need to do some calibration in the settings. Perfect for gaming but for productivity, I would personally look for an IPS panel.

Great Refresh Rate
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This monitor has a great refresh rate and makes the picture look flawless. It's perfect for streaming as well as for gaming. It's a good deal and something I'd definitely recommend to anyone. It is a great size as well, not too big or small. Fits perfectly on any desk.

Great Gaming Monitor
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Can't believe I waited this long for a higher hz + gsync monitor. What a difference. It does require some color and brightness tweaking, so be ready to look up some reviews or calibration settings if you make the purchase. Can't beat the price for the options this monitor has. A steal under $400.

Amazing Gaming Monitor
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This monitor is out of this world for the price. 144hz, 1440p, GSync and fantastic color after some calibration, all for about half the cost of the other "gaming" monitors.

Great monitor

Amazing Monitor!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely love this monitor for gaming. With G-Sync and the OC ability of the refresh rate to 165hz, this is the perfect monitor for gaming if you have an Nvidia GFX card. I will say that you do have to adjust the display settings. The way Dell ships them the colors are very washed out and the monitor is too bright. But there are plenty of YouTube videos on what settings are best and its an easy fix that you never have to touch again. But gaming on this is SUPER smooth and the 24" screen is perfect for me and has more PPI than the 27". Def worth the purchase!

Great Value!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Probably, one of the best monitors you can get for the price, if you're looking for the features that this monitor offers: 1440P, G-Sync, and 144/165hz refresh rate. I researched several monitors in this category and the Dell came out on top of other monitors with the same features, in my opinion, as it was priced lower than the competitors, especially when on sale, and got very favorable reviews on other sites from most users. I got it when it was on sale for 399.99. I think the normal price is $100 more but it seems to go on sale very frequently. Another thing I like is that there are 4 USB 3.0 ports, 2 on the side and 2 on the bottom, which are always nice to have. I debated getting this or a 4K monitor to pair with my 1080 TI. I opted for this one because I feel that 4K monitors are still a little overpriced and most of them "only" run at 60hz, which might be fine for gaming(with G-Sync) but would increase the odds of getting eyestrain while doing non-gaming tasks. In the near future, you can probably get a 4K monitor with HDR and 120+hz for a similar price than this but if you need a monitor now, this is a great monitor for the price! One minor negative is that the monitor doesn't have built-in speakers but it's not enough to deduct a star, as most people would use headphones or have external speakers, anyways.

Honestly astonished for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this unit heavily on sale, and am honestly astonished at the color reproduction, the high response time and refresh rate, lack of ghosting, and how good 1440p looks at 24"! One tip. Do not change your response time from standard, it introduces a HIDEOUS amount of ghosting and makes it impossible to use. Honestly wish they would have just gotten rid of the feature. The bias lighting in the picture does not come with it, but is only $10 at a website named after a rain forest.

Great 1440p 144+fps monitor!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This monitor is an great 1440p over 144fps monitor. It is a TN panel so you have to dial into the settings in order to get more accurate colors. At first I was hesitant of getting this monitor due to the TN panels just having horrible color compared to other panels, but in all honesty you can only notice the lower quality of colors if you put a VA or IPS panel right next to it and start comparing. I love the full motion of the monitor, it can literally tilt and move at any angle I want. The only thing I have noticed is that the buttons on the monitor, to change settings/input, sometimes require to double press to get a response and sometimes the settings reset for the whole panel. Other than that I have found no issue with this monitor.

Excellent monitor foe a great price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this monitor to match up with the new build I put together for every day computer tasks and computer programming with 3D rendering. Currently running intel i5 6600k with GTX 1080 ti. It clocks this monitor on nearly every program I run at 165Hz and you can feel and see the difference when going from this to say a regular monitor or watching or playing games an Xbox one or PS4 Pro. Could not be more happier, as I prefer this monitor over the 4K60Hz monitor I was using before.

Best cheap 24" gsync 1440p 165hz monitor.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Beautiful monitor for the price. I was able to buy a like new open box for $200. It was best monitor purchase. Gaming advantage on a 165Hz gsync monitor at 1440p or 1080p is amazing, especially in a game like COD. Monitor stand is excellent and can be positioned in many different configuration. Come with HDMI, Displayport and power cable. Best cheap 24" gsync 1440p 165hz monitor.

Great Monitor, nuff said
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was skeptical of what the difference in visuals between 60hz, 75hz, and 144hz until I looked at each. if you are using the Gforce 1060+ (I'm using a 1080) you will be pleased. in a FPS the lack of ghosting is just wow. oh, btw it can be boosted to 165hz...just saying. currently playing Prey on Very High, and the visuals looks so much better than my previous monitor. especially since I have G-sync turned on. Buy it. it is not a bad purchase in the slightest.

Excellent
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this monitor for its high refresh rate for fast paced games. The monitor panel is TN which means it has excellent response times but the viewing angle is crap but surprisingly the color reproduction is pretty good. This monitor must be calibrated to get the colors just right, I suggest you look it up only for a color calibration guide it’s easy enough to follow with a quick google search.

Fantastic response
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used to play my xbox on a regular 4K TV in the living room. Since I hopped in this I’ve noticed my performance go WAY UP! All thanks to this flawless refresh rate. I tired to go back to a regular TV since some friends came over and it felt like nothing would register until a second after I pressed the buttons. Once you go gaming monitor. You never go back ;)
