Perfect for the price! Not a 1k gaming monitor but works fine.

The price for the performance is great. 165Hz is good. 1ms is deceptive. there is about 4-5 ms true gtg. Ghosts aren't perfect, they're noticeable, but not enough to spoil the impression. This is the VA panel. Colors are great when you adjust them to suit your visual preferences. What's really weird is that there's no DisplayPort cable included. The height adjustment is comfortable, the angle is small but sufficient to make the viewing angle optimal. The pixel size is about 8-10 inches. So the ideal viewing distance is 16-24 inches from the monitor. Overall, a great price for a performance monitor. Unless you spend $700-$1000 on a 240Hz 1ms GTG. This is the best monitor for 1080p gaming. Especially if you prefer a curved monitor, I also have an ultra-wide 30" 200Hz scepter and its ghosting is much worse, but it's an IPS monitor compared to this VA panel. There's also a TN panel, but colors are poor, so expect a better TN 240+ monitor. I will update the review if I ever need to claim the warranty or have any issues.
