Bought one, and when set it up, there was an annoying stuck pixel which was light blue. I exchanged it for another CRG5 and it came in today. Lets just say I'm not buying another one. You can give me a free one. The new monitor came in and displayed a white screen with a huge white stripe down the middle and some floating crosshair thing buzzing around.

BROKEN AFTER 30 DAYS OF USE - CHEAP MONITOR

I was for the most part satisfied with this monitor, but a little over a month after I purchased this product half the screen just started pixelating uncontrollably to the point where this monitor is largely useless. I have tried every non-hardware fix available to me, and even hooked the monitor up to a game console where the problem still persisted. That means it's a monitor hardware issue, and not specific to my CPU's video card. To say I am frustrated would be an understatement. You get what you pay for I suppose.

I bought this monitor to go with a computer I built for my nephew. I chose this monitor partly because of the price. I also chose it because I knew the color would be great and because of the 144hz refresh rate. I already purchased three 27" Curved Samsung 240hz monitors, so this was an easy choice for me.
Gameplay is smooth.
It's nice to have Freesync because it will work with Nvidia or AMD.
One thing I must mention is that this monitor includes only an HDMI cable. The quality of the picture wasn't as good as I expected it to be, so I purchased a Display Port cable to replace the HDMI cable. The display output looks better with Display Port instead of the HDMI. I think, possibly, they just included a lower quality HDMI cable with the monitor because of the price range. I have never experienced this before, but I wanted to mention it so that if you experience the same issue, you will know how to remedy it.

I wasn’t sure how into gaming I would be so I originally got a 60Hz monitor from a different brand. Then I decided to upgrade and I’m glad I did. I’ve had a Samsung curved TV for years and it’s the best TV I own. So I went curved with the monitor and love it just as much. It was easily assembled and set to 144Hz out of box. I later realized you have to set your computer (and potentially game) to the same Hz to really get the value. I have it hooked up via display port (2 HDMI ports are available) and running smoothly.
Con: you cannot tilt or raise it and depending on your style of keyboard/mouse use, the stand might get in the way.
