Screen gets blurry after Alt Tab

All in all the monitor was a really good buy before the problem started. It handles games well and has good contrast. But after some time of usage I noticed that Alt Tab makes the screen blurry and pixelated. It's still usable if you just consider it really poor AA quality. But it happens every day when an application is open in full screen and Alt Tab switches to other windows. This brings me a lot of problems because I was in the middle of something and the screen gets blurry and I have to…

I bought this slightly curved rectangle because I love looking at solid colors. Black was missing in my room. Whoever noticed I could hook this rectangle up to my computer and I broke a brick when I found out I could use it to display lots of solid colors. There's nothing quite like watching cyan at 144 frames per second.

A good inexpensive monitor for a second display or backup.

A good inexpensive monitor for a second display or backup station. I wanted to use it as a small guest TV, but it doesn't have built-in speakers. So keep that in mind if you plan to do the same.

Great monitor for the price

The monitor costs less than $300 at 144Hz. I had no problems with the monitor other than some issues connecting to the display port.

Excellent monitor in my review

Great monitor for the price, will probably buy again. There are no pixel or color issues either. Color Balancing: If the colors on the display are not accurately calibrated, the display may look washed out or too bright..

Reliable 1080p monitor

Honestly my favorite monitor I have ever used, there are several types in this price range that I have received and they are surprisingly better than others. A quick setup took about 1-2 minutes, and it runs consistently at 1080p with nice rich colors. And overall a great product. Only complaint is the plastic used for this product loves OILS! It pulls the oil out of your finger and leaves a mark instead of cooling it. But for gaming it's 100% perfect, at least at 1080p.

THE FIRST WAS REPLACING A DEAD PIXEL NO SOUND

The first one really had a dead pixel, I used it for a week while waiting for a replacement, there were no other problems, the sound worked fine. Revain replaced it with a new one, had no sound, great picture, great for gaming and easy to see. BUY SURE you buy a 1.4 DP cable to use it properly. I had HDCP issues with the one that came with it, don't know why. The sound from the monitor is not required, so it will probably slip through the price.

I like perfection

At $189, this monitor is worth every penny. Ideal for gaming in every way, be it color, hertz, input lag, response time. If you feel the need to buy a more expensive monitor just to play better, you are better off with a gold inlaid gaming chair because this monitor is awesome.

Excellent quality! - my new rating

The product arrived well packaged, no defects. Outstanding video quality. For some reason my monitor had built in speakers so I'm not complaining.

Excellent budget 144Hz monitor

For the price you can't complain and the curve is a bonus. The only reason I'm not giving it a 4 is that the monitor has a weird black border at some viewing angles, but that's not too bad, just for my personal taste.

Great value in my rating

This was the first "gaming" monitor I bought and for the price I couldn't ask for more. I found the stand to be a bit shorter than I would have liked with my setup, but I raised it up with some boards and now it's perfect. The monitor has 5 stars but the included stand is too short and needs some work. Makes a great main monitor.

Definitely has its quirks, but a great budget 144Hz monitor

I had to tweak a lot to get good picture quality and currently I'm still having issues with the freesync screen flickering. But I bought this monitor for $150 and am very happy with it. It definitely made me realize that one shouldn't skimp on monitors, screen flickering is pretty annoying.

No calibration required, smooth image

Although the response time is a bit slower than your average 144Hz monitor, the picture quality is perfect and I didn't even have to calibrate the color bars or gamma when I plugged it in, it even had a 144Hz auto selection, which can't happen with everyone, but my experience with this monitor has only been good. The only reason I didn't give all features 5 stars is because of gtg's response time, although it's barely noticeable. I think the only reason I noticed this was because I was at 144hz

Solid for the price

A solid monitor for the price. I only use it for my PS4 until I switch to desktop and it's been fine so far. The only thing I have to say about it is negative. It looks a bit washed out in color. But a little fiddling with the settings. I found what I liked with it. Otherwise a decent monitor for the price.

Great product and performance for the price. I haven't noticed any compatibility issues with Gsync. Color balance and other tweaks require a bit of tweaking, but look fantastic when set up properly.

Automatic active display change

Great budget gaming monitor. The only downside is that switching on will switch to any active input. It might seem like a plus, but since I'm using a Displayport connection, it switches to pretty much every input before it gets to this DP input. This happens every time. I'd rather enter manually and leave it there. Once in Blue Moon I have to change it manually anyway.

The best panel under $200 on the market

like all monitors. adjust your settings. Make sure you run Nvidia Control Panel to apply settings correctly and Windows Settings to get 144. The VA panel on this model is for those trying to avoid the TN panel. Alongside this panel I'm running a 27ips 60hz panel and apart from the missed color gambit I'm very impressed with the quality for the price.

In my opinion a normal monitor

This monitor was fine. I went from 60hz to 144hz and I can see a difference in smoothness, for FPS games it's very good, it allowed me to react faster and more accurately since I disabled vsync and capped the frame rate at 144hz , the input lag was gone. However, it is more difficult to use the 144Hz refresh rate in many games other than FPS (which are usually not very demanding). So I weighed the difference and brought this monitor back to a 1440p 60Hz panel. The new monitor I have is fine…

Okay after you customize it to your liking.

EDIT 1: The speakers don't work for me. Personally I don't care, I hate Acer monitor speakers but it will bother other people I'm sure. Otherwise it would be a 4 star monitor. Edit 2: Flickering sometimes occurs when freesync is activated. Black vertical lines move up/down on the screen and blink intermittently. Started showing up about a month later. Pros: + Curved design doesn't overwhelm. + Good colors (after optimization) + 144Hz is amazing compared to my previous 60Hz and 75Hz monitors. +…
