Greater than one weekThe size and set up was nice and easy. Only down side is the picture may seem a little blurred at first but if you mess with the settings enough and the right way its an easy fix. Great monitor!

> 3 dayThe stand/base on this thing is really unstable, wobbly. It looks cool but any time my table shakes, the monitor wobbles even after a lot of tightening and double checking. I finally had to gorilla tape it to stay in place. The picture is great. When switching the monitor source the front buttons menus are complicated and it doesnt auto switch how I would expect so i just end up unplugging it and plugging in different monitors to make it work well. kind of a pain. I like Samsung monitors better. You just cycle through the sources with the push of a button on Samsung. You dont have to navigate through three levels of menus to get to the source menu. Samsung and many other monitor bases are not this wobbly/unstable. I wish I had gotten something different but this was highly rated with 144hz frame rate for gaming on a lot of sites. Oh well, its the little things that become a big pain.

> 3 dayI picked this particular monitor due to having a very similar bezel to the Acer Predator 27. The colors are great for web browsing and light gaming. I dont use it for heavy gaming sessions so I cannot attest to its performance for FPS games.

> 3 dayI have been using this monitor for quite a while and it is a joy to work and game on. I love the almost non existent bezel on the sides and top. They look great side by side in a dual monitor configuration I would love to have these features in a bigger monitor with newer features like QHD, but this monitor just works and looks great.

> 3 dayWorks great, has an aimpoint option which is ok for cod. If you quickscoop Im sure it will help. I hear it great for 3rd person shooters like pubg Screen setting are basic otherwise. Wish for the price it had a remote. Im unable to test if its really a 1ms lag. Ive had some improvement in my gaming stats but not sure if its due to this.

> 3 day(KG251Q review) Over all this monitor is nice, for the price i got it for ($130). The refresh rate is a little low and 1ms response time is slightly unnecessary with the low htz. The bezel is a major selling point as it looks great but the color is very bad. On my monitor the black colors are Grey and nothing i do in the settings will fix it. I even have a professional color correction tool that did little to fix it after many attempts, but due to the TN panels used I think there is little that can be done. For the price it is a good monitor but it seems to have most of the worst of both worlds with a low refresh rate and TN panels. If you are looking for a gaming monitor I would look into something with a higher refresh rate, or go for a monitor with a IPS screen for better color.

> 3 dayAfter only a couple months of use, started getting half my screen not showing up, would have to switch inputs in the menu and change it back for it to show properly, otherwise is ok the rest of the time. Quality really lacking in Acer. EDIT: Turned out to be an issue with a graphics driver and not the monitor. Monitor is great...still working as intended!!!

> 3 dayits an amazing monitor. only problem i have with it is that it doesnt go up or down. other than that, its beautiful. i love the flat design, and i can notice the difference between 5ms and 1ms response time. i also love the simplicity of the monitors settings.

> 3 dayGreat for 1080p 144hz gaming, but the picture quality out of the box requires some tweaking. I was not expecting too much going in from a TN panel, but its worst than expected. This could be due to the fact that I downgraded from a 4k@60 40 HDTV. Dont get me wrong its still an excellent monitor and g-sync works great. Additionally I was able to greatly improve the picture quality using Nvidia Freestyle. Gaming experience on this is night and day over my 4k monitor, high refresh gaming is truly an amazing experience. Refresh Rate Overclocking - It does 165hz with a simple overclock in the Nvidia Control Panel, I have it overclocked to 155hz for my everyday overclock.

Greater than one weekNear perfect for this pricepoint. Itll be very hard to find another like it. The only gripe I have with it is that it doesnt adjust and leans forward but I bought a stand which solved that issue. Also the 75 hz really does make a difference; I have a dual display setup and the other is a 120 hz but the difference between the two is less apparent than using a 60hz. Speakers are meh, but I didnt plan on on using them anyways so it doesnt bother me.
