Review on ViewSonic XG2705-2K Frameless LCD IPS Monitor with FreeSync and Ergonomics, HDMI 2560x1440P Resolution by Felton Riley

I ordered this monitor as a Christmas present and unfortunately it had a large patch of dark pixels right after the first use. I ordered a replacement and this monitor worked very well for a week before the screen flashed erratically for a few seconds and then a 2 or 3 inch wide vertical rectangular portion of the screen went completely black from top to bottom (when it was off for example). .
