Review on ASUS Gaming 1080P Monitor VG249Q1R 165Hz, Flicker-Free, Built-In Speakers, Blue Light Filter, by Austin Ortiz

So, that's my first impression of it after using it for about 7 hours. As someone who upgraded from an overclocked 75hz monitor and has used 60hz monitors my entire life, this was a huge upgrade for me. The games I play (mostly fps) run very smooth and compared to the 60hz monitor I had before it had a lot less motion blur and I would like to say the experience was TOO smooth for me because I from such a heavy load on the came frame. However, the first problem I noticed myself is that the color of the monitor is very bright, and after about 1-2 hours of gaming I began to experience eye strain and noticeable blurry vision, which is causing me on my previous monitor normally doesn't happen after 10pm. + hours. I would say try adjusting the monitor to your liking but the lighting is killing my eyes even now. The price of this monitor is fantastic for its value in my opinion although I was hoping that this monitor could be moved along the Y axis rather than tilted up and down but that was to be expected. The screen size is exceptional to me and personally going from a 20 inch screen makes a big difference. If you plan to buy this as your first monitor, do it! But if it's not your first, to be honest if you're willing to donate another $50-60 then I believe you can get a monitor that looks much better, but since this is my first monitor, and i wanted to be on the safe side i am very happy with what i got and lots of colors and brightness adjustable on the monitor along with the nvidia control panel. I'd like to give you more information as I couldn't find any other reviews for this monitor, but I'll definitely be posting updates every few weeks. to tell you how it was for me
