Review on Viotek GNV32DBE 32-Inch 2560x1440P Curved Monitor with FreeSync, 165Hz Refresh Rate, and Wall Mount Compatibility by Nathan Winnick

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great monitor until you try mounting it on a VESA mount.

I have had this monitor for over a year now and have no complaints about the quality, functionality or display. For the price you pay this is a wonderful monitor and a huge upgrade from the crappy 1080-60Hz monitor I was previously using. BUT: I bought a VESA monitor stand to free up some desk space as the stand is quite large. Although this monitor is technically compatible with a VESA 75mm mount, the mount base is recessed into the monitor. What does that mean? Well, almost every single VESA mount is rated for 75-100m, which means the 100m extension doesn't allow the mount to sit close enough to screw into a monitor. I'm not even talking about countersunk screws, which you NEED standoffs for (don't throw them away like I did guys). The solution is to just find a 75mm square VESA mount, but good luck with that. Now I had to buy several sets of standoffs because the instructions don't list the thread size, so it takes a guessing game to find the right size. Great monitor but for a company that advertises easy VESA mounting this seems very deceptive and misleading. . Be careful if you plan to install this monitor.

Pros
  • ELITE GAMING PERFORMANCE - Turbocharged 165Hz monitor with 5ms response time for minimal input lag. Turn on MPRT mode to eliminate image and motion blur. Or enable adaptive sync (FreeSync and G-SYNC compatible) to keep the game free from glitches for good.
Cons
  • There are downsides
