Review on Enhanced BenQ EX3203R Monitor with FreeSync DisplayHDR - 31.5 Inch, 2560X1440P, Curved Design, HDMI Connectivity by Adam Markel

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I'm not sure about this monitor

It turns out that this monitor is very good at doing a little bit of everything. This is great for gaming as there is enough room to see what's going on around me. It replaced an ultra-wide display that was great for opening multiple programs. At first I couldn't get it to work properly, everything was on the dark side and I couldn't get the onscreen controls to fix it. Freesync2 worked fine with the cable that came with the display but didn't work as advertised ie. 144 Hertz. I bought a better displayport cable and connected its displayport to the displayport of both the monitor and the graphics cards (a pair of MSI Radeon RX480s in the Crossfire) and it recognized all the settings which should work. I haven't run any benchmarks on it yet, but everything I've played runs pretty smoothly with much more realistic colors. I wasn't sure about the curved display, but it didn't take me long to get used to it. Image editing seems to work well along with using my Office apps. I noticed that the display adjusts to the amount of light, which is good for my aging eyes. It appears to be a well built display and the stand is very solid. He looks great too. The only thing I couldn't figure out was how to erase all fingerprints. It's my fault they hit him, especially around the edges. However, when it's on, I don't see that many of them. The installation instructions could have been clearer, but I'm not deducting a point for that.
