False advertising at its finest

I'm not sure if I received a faulty product or if they changed the quality of this product over the sale period but I absolutely hate it. Here are a few things to consider before you spend any money. Mind you, that was after we spent hours tweaking the monitor's Nvidia control panel and display settings to try and get the best picture out of this garbage monitor. At a resolution of 1920x1080, the sharpness is terrible. I mostly use $100 60Hz HD monitors and even they are sharper than this monitor. The letters are a little blurry and the color is terrible. As if the monitor simply wasn't able to display good quality. At 2560x1440 it's even WORSE! The color quality is even worse, the letters are not fully displayed. The letters are truncated in several places and may not appear in full.2. This monitor is actually 60Hz. It is not capable of 75Hz.3. The only way to get this monitor to display 2560 x 1440 resolution is to install software like the Nvidia Control Panel or the one that came with your graphics card. If you're using the window display settings, you can't force this thing to display anything above 1920 x 1080p. All in all you get what you pay for. This monitor is very cheap at this price point, so expect dirty quality. I'd rather save an extra hundred or two to buy something really worth your money. I'm sending this thing back today, saving up for something that isn't counterfeit.
