Review on Acer VG240Y Bmiix FREESYNC Technology 23.8", 1920X1080P, 75Hz, Frameless, HD, HDMI by Bruce Ingram

Good, but the stand is very wobbly

The stand is very wobbly. From reading and looking at reviews I didn't think it would be a big problem, but it does shake a bit even when I'm typing on my mechanical keyboard. The image quality is quite good since it is an IPS panel. The backlight gets really bright, bright enough that glare from sunlight isn't a problem. You need to turn on the backlight flash to avoid damaging your eyes in a dark room. The move from 60Hz to 75Hz is a small but noticeable improvement. Despite what the product pages say, the actual lag from data entry to display is around 12ms (not 1ms), which isn't bad but definitely noticeable. Blacklight flash (called VRB in the menu) seems to make it more responsive without doing anything to make it more responsive. I played racing games on it and it was good for that. I haven't played CSGO on it so FPS performance remains to be seen. (I'll try to remember to update while playing.) I like that it has 2 HDMI inputs so I can connect my console without shutting down my computer. You can't use FreeSync on an Nvidia card because it doesn't have a DisplayPort input. The speakers are pretty bad, but I use them a lot, they're really comfortable. I plugged my headphones into the mixer or the front panel, but since the front panel is facing away from me, it's nice to be able to plug my headphones into the jack on the back of the monitor.
