  • Very good response times and high refresh support from an IPS-type panel, FreeSync support works nicely, and without affecting overdrive, Much lower cost than G-sync equivalent
  • Missing a blur reduction mode, IPS Glow may still be off-putting to some people, Lag a bit higher than hoped at lower refresh rates
  • We know how excited people were to get a detailed review of this monitor as quickly as possible, so we decided to release this as a full review straight away. We worked overtime to bring you this quickly as well so if you appreciate the early access to th...
