Its size and curve helps with eye strain

Fantastic sharpness and excellent contrast. Mainly used for photo editing, and the 4K Ultra HD resolution is invaluable when it comes to the finest details. The monitor tends to be a bit bright and the brightness needs to be adjusted using both native (built-in) settings and Windows 10 controls to keep the monitor from getting too bright. NVIDIA settings are generally not loaded at boot, and simply going into NVIDIA settings after boot will allow you to reapply the necessary settings. I'm not sure if this is a Windows issue or an Nvidia issue. It only takes a few seconds to confirm the NVIDIA settings, so a full fix has never been done. Compared to other large monitors, this monitor performs as well as other more expensive monitors and in many cases better in terms of sharpness and clarity. The curved display is ideal for reducing eye strain while using the full area for detailed photo editing.

Pros
  • Great for whatever we need.
Cons
  • Huge red bar on screen when powered on
