Does the job! the best in my rating

I use this monitor for my Xboxonex to play COD and it works fine. I like the practice crosshair that you can place in the center of the screen to learn how to quickly see the center of the screen.

Amazing gaming monitor

This is my first monitor and I've been using it for a few months and it has changed everything! Works well with my laptop and my PC. Runs my games perfectly with crisp images and refresh rates. I definitely see myself getting a second one in the near future!

Absolutely worth the money.

Love every minute with it. Freesync is on and I'm using a high frame rate. I even hooked up my OG PS4 and it looked really good.

I bought one for a second screen for my laptop, ended up getting a PC and bought a second one. Both are good for gaming and general use.

Great value for my opinion

Great monitor, especially for the price. My games run very smooth now and it was a huge improvement over my old 24 inch Dell monitor. Tons of settings for gamers. I recommend 5 out of 5.

Beautiful appearance! - my new rating

I haven't been able to test it in games yet, but I know it depends on the graphics card too, but other than that I already love this monitor! It looks great and the curve there feels really more exciting. I also have a desk mount to allow me more movement and it was very easy to install and feels solid!

Good, not great: my rating

sooo I'm a little torn. I played on a 50" HDTV and then a 65" HDTV for many years. I switched to this monitor after realizing that 65 inches was too big. I think it's much better for gaming, but I've sacrificed image quality. For reference, I'm playing on Xbox One X.

Great monitor for gaming

I was very skeptical about the purchase but glad I spent the money on a major monitor upgrade from my previous monitor, fast shipping and easy setup. I recommend this monitor.

XBOX Series S works fine.

Bought to get 120 fps from my XBOX S series. Looks great! I've never seen such a clean war zone! I don't know how I managed to do that with the old monitor.

Best buy in my rating

I bought 2 of these and it's the best purchase I've ever made. They have excellent frames and refresh rates, making them perfect for gaming. The image the monitors put out is so sharp and clear and the adjustable brightness makes it perfect. Bonus Features You have a frame counter setting as well as an option for an on-screen crosshair.

Screen shatters with a simple twist

Terribly made product and even worse customer service. I bought it about 4 months ago and I love it, even though the color fidelity isn't as good as my Dell laptop and the pixel resolution leaves a lot to be desired. However, today I tried rotating the monitor to the right by putting my left hand behind the monitor and pulling it slightly towards me. I heard a pop and when I checked the screen I saw that it was cracked and now about 1/5 of the screen is unusable. Revain of course didn't do…

worst experience ever with company and monitor

I bought a monitor from Asus about 3 months ago, the monitor came with a dead pixel, I sent it back for repair and it arrived dead, so they said it was customer made damage and I had to pay $180 for that Paying for repairs so it was a huge waste of time and money. I finally settled with FedEx and Asus to send $180 for repair then got my monitor back, it worked fine for 6 days. Now this morning I woke up to use it and the display doesn't work and I have to ship the monitor for the second time. I

Disappointed with your rating.

Super disappointed. At first there are small white stripes on the screen. It's not true 1080p or whatever. Second, I was trying to play my FPS game and there was so much lag/tearing that it was almost impossible. I have an MSI c27C5 which also supports 1080p and 165hz but without these issues. . I would recommend MSI for that any day.

Perfect bat cave aesthetic

These monitors are clean and sleek. I ordered a couple of these and they work great together. The 165Hz refresh rate is stunning in games, especially shooters (which I'm sure made me better at). The picture is clear and bright. I really wish they were completely borderless, but for what you get for the price I have no complaints, plus my apartment is like a bat cave now. Dead pixels on both monitors. I'm changing my rating from 5 stars to 2 stars because it's not acceptable.
