Pros: very vibrant The screen looks good is reactive like a premium monitor Very low latency 165 Hz Flat Almost no IPS glow No dead pixels Excellent color reduction after calibration. Amazing for gaming. Good Viewing angles

Cons: Needs some calibration to make it look better Short in-box cables

My last monitor was a 10 year old Dynex tv, so this is a huge upgrade that seemed to have good reviews everywhere. Recommended as one of the best in the price range. This is gorgeous in comparison/ I am very impressed with this monitor. The screen looks great, and is fast and responsive. I was hesitant after reading the reviews about dead pixels, but experienced none. IPS glow is practically non existent I would definitely recommend this monitor. It does take a powerful GPU to hit 165Hz.

This monitor is worth every penny, extremely clear vivid pictures. Enhanced my gaming experience tenfold. Msi did a great job with this one.

* Super fast, this is the first of the second gen AUO monitors (this panel is the sequel to the one that started it all, the Asus PG279Q), the fastest pixel response times you can get. * Quantum dot panel, has the widest colour coverage of any monitor except the 32" version of this panel, which is used in the Asus PG329Q * Every feature included, full ergonomic adjustments, USB-C input, Display Port 1.4 (not 1.2 thank goodness)

* No calibration report like with high end Asus or LG/Dell monitors, it just means there can be some more variety between different people, hope you get lucky * No sRGB clamping to the lower colour space, disappointing * Basically only the "USER" colour profile is decent, if you need accurate colours, you'll need your own calibration, the Dell 27" and LG GL850 have accurate colour modes you can switch to out of the box.

Incredibly good. Good price too. Fastest and best looking visuals outside the $900+ 240hz monitors. Buy.

in box cables were a little short (5 or 6 feet) for my tower location and two monitor setup. Was able to make it work with some rearranging but you might need longer cables if your tower is further away from monitor

purchased for gaming based on many online test bench reviews and it lives up to the reviews. high refresh, good stand with plenty of adjustments, OSD settings menu is easy to use and you can get drivers to operate it in windows too, colors really vibrant out of the box but easily adjustable with OSD

I had been thinking about getting this monitor because of the hardware unboxed review and then it went on sale so I picked it up. I've had it for a week now and I love it. I was a little hesitant as I had seen some complaints about too much color because it didn't have an SRGB clamp but I really like all the vivid colors. Only thing I changed out of the box was the profile from default to one labeled ray tracing which I believe just adjusted contrast and brightness and I think it looks fantastic. I'm using a 3080 and the DP cable to run at 1440p 165hz and have had no issues.
