Review: Incredibly sharp, brilliant colors, and a very high quality design. - To compliment my new mid/high end PC build, I chose this new offering from ViewSonic purely from the posted specifications and their reputation from 15 years ago for building long lasting good quality monitors. The PC sees general home internet use, with gaming and some light photo/video editing (I'm a novice). I'm very happy. Now, I'm coming from a very low end 1080P acer 12 year old monitor so this ViewSonic is obviously heaps improved. There are no dead pixels, the glare shields and cable management work as designed, height adjustment is ridiculously easy, and the picture blows me away. Youtube videos in 1440P are a completely difference experience now. Games play great though I'm not a serious gamer so can't give an experts opinion. Backlight bleed isn't an issue for me. It's there I guess but I'm not looking at a black screen long enough for it to be an problem. The RGB lighting was turned off in the beginning and has never been missed. It didn't bother me when it was turned on though. It's more background ambient light. I use powered speakers so the speakers included are turned off however they were adequate when initially powered up. For my needs, this monitor is exactly what I wanted and I'm perfectly satisfied.
Review: Love this monitor but this is the second one I got. - Amazing monitor. The PureXP+ is the best way to get ghosting free and accurate controls. I'm a competitive Street Fighter player and the PureXP+ along overclocking is almost there in comparison to a CRT monitor. The sRGB preset is the same as my Macbook Pro in both color, pixel density and quality of the screen so this could be used for work involving color accuracy (photoshot, etc). There isnt any input lag playing both FPS and fighting games that I can notice (30+ years playing fighting games in CRT, LCD, projectors, VA, IPS, etc). There are 2 presets where I have it one for gaming and another for color accuracy and work fine. If the 4k was cheaper I wouldve got that one. The video is from the first monitor I got. After a couple weeks of use it got that bar of flickering pixels which after searching the net and asking a few people they all suggested to exchange. The exchange process with desertcart was a pain since the CSR Mabel is really the CSR from hell. Good thing the escalation I asked for 10 minutes got thru and a lead CSR helped me with the return process. I suggest desertcart to return to the old prepaid label with everything in it because the UPS QR isnt accepted anywhere here. I'm raising awareness to return to the old method since the worst part of my experience (getting a dud of a tech product isnt rare) but hauling the thing back and forth and then getting an absolutely awful CSR just got me wary of buying more stuff here and going thru the same problem again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ SO FAST, SO CLEAN, FPS MUST HAVE
*by S***R on September 9, 2020*

I am a very serious FPS gamer and a bit of a PC fanatic. I have always been a big Samsung panel guy and have never been pulled away from their monitors or TV's since they got into the game, until now. I was all set to buy a G7 Odyssey until I saw on blur busters that the viewsonic Elite XG270 was the first monitor to have it's PureXp blur reduction certified by them. I also saw that it was a sub 1ms GTG IPS panel. I have always loved IPS vs. TN for it's color accuracy and deep blacks but I wanted nothing less than 240hz refresh and that was not an option I had found from a brand I trusted. I must say ViewSonic does not disappoint. This thing is AMAZING. It is so fast, so clean and in FPS games with my 2080ti pumping out 300 frames it is smooth as butter. G-Sync is a must and when I lock it in at 240hz it is literally perfection. No artifacts, no ghost from OD, just clean and clear speed. Not to mention is was less expensive. I personally like 1920x1080 for FPS gaming because it is easier for your card to drive at high frame rates over the 2k or 4k monitors. If you want more screen real estate then go for their 1440p version for a few hundred bucks more. 165hz is nothing to be ashamed of BUT if you want the absolute butter of 240hz in game this is the way to go. A couple of things to note that I figured out. 1. If you want to use purexp then you cannot turn on G-sync. I personally cannot tell between the two and I have obsessed over it so I keep G-sync on. 2. you can over clock this to 241 hz at 8-bit color but I cannot tell so I leave it at 240 10-bit. 3. You can use your graphics card to over drive this to 2560x1440 @ 165hz and it works just fine, but the text is a little blurry so you have to adjust your clear type settings and even then it is not as good as native 1440p. All in all I am REALLY happy with this monitor and I would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone in the market for a gaming monitor.
