Review on AOPEN 27HC5R Pbiipx Curved Monitor with FREESYNC Technology, Full HD 165Hz Refresh Rate by Brian Rossetti

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good monitor for gaming

This monitor is good for gaming. Despite what was said upon purchase, it doesn't look like GSYNC is officially supported, but I haven't noticed any screen tearing when playing games at 1080p 144Hz. However, if you want to do something other than gaming, it's not very good. general. The text is very difficult to read as it is rendered blurry and the fine details are the same. Photo editing or graphic design won't work with it because your edges will be distorted. I seriously considered returning this monitor as soon as I hooked it up. The only reason I kept it is the price. But since I work from home more often, I'll probably pass it on to my brother and buy a sharper monitor. If your computer is basically just a game console, this monitor will suit you. However, if you can use it for something else and get an extra $100, get something else. Your eyes will thank you.
