It's amazing little bugs but solvable

This is a really good monitor. I read a lot of reviews on various 144hz 27 inch monitors about a week before buying, but I've been looking at them all year and finally came back to get them. Before that I had a Dell S2417DG, a stunning 24-inch 1440p 144Hz monitor. panel but I accidentally knocked it over face down lol. So much for being my runner-up. Having it set up and calibrated to my liking, I happily moved on. Color accuracy is amazing, and since the resolution is the same as before, I get a much larger and sharper display with no change in gaming performance or mouse sensitivity. pretty cool i have to say. ELMB-SYNC is good, but if you do a little research, you'll know that it also has its downsides when processing below max FPS, depending on the refresh rate. Since I have an RTX 2060, I don't get 165 fps in every game. So when I get into the 80-90 range, you can see little tears in the high-speed gameplay. Here the user decides for himself whether he is annoying or not. For me that is very low. You either keep running at maximum settings and get over it, lower your settings to consistently get above 100 fps, or just disable ELMB sync. It still looks fine with just G-Sync, but if you switch from both high FPS to either one, you'll definitely notice the slowdown. I guess that's called being spoiled lol. But from what I've read and seen, the difference is in this monitor. That aside, the build quality is amazing, and there's a cool cable management flap on the back that needs to be removed. It feels like it's not a door but it is, it just takes a little effort to get out. you receive
