Monitor's great! Maybe some of the accessories could use some work.
I really like this monitor. I've been using 1080p as my native resolution since college (back in 2008 at least) so going to 1440p is the first resolution upgrade I've done in over 15 years. I originally had ordered a pair of 1440s from LG but after reading some remarks about the dynamic contrast being locked I bailed on those and ordered these, despite never having ever bought anything from KTC before.This monitor seems to satisfy everything I wanted to accomplish the jump (a larger screen space over 27" to accommodate the increase in pixels while also supporting the higher refresh rate and VESA AdaptiveSync features of my 27" gaming monitors). The monitor is also brighter than I was expecting. 1440p at 32" has a denser PPI than 1080p at 27", meaning text looks cleaner on this monitor than the 27" displays I was using (I've been told that at 32", 1440p is more comparable to using 1080p on a 24" canvas in terms of PPI). The default color temp is maybe a bit on the cool side but it can be adjusted (the default for "User" seems to suit me). I ordered two of these, one for each of my gaming setups, and neither of them have any dead pixels.The description says "165 Hz" but in actuality I managed to run this thing at 180 Hz (which means it's a 165 Hz panel overclocked). I notice the thumbnail for the product says "180 Hz" so go by that.If I had to complain about anything I'd say the accessories leave a little more to be desired. The base is one of those three-point things that looks cool but creates some awkward situations with your keyboard if you have to put the monitor directly onto the desk where your keyboard lives. It takes up less space than I was expecting but I still think I might go for a flatter base. However more importantly the base isn't height-adjustable, which can create issues if you have to set your monitor on a surface where you might want it lower or higher to meet your eye level (it is tilt-adjustable at least, which helps with the desk where I had to put it on a higher ledge). More than the flat base I think this is what would motivate me to get an aftermarket stand solution.Furthermore the complaints about the short DisplayPort cable in the box are indeed correct. For my setups this isn't an issue, they can reach the port without difficulty, but you definitely may need to consider buying longer cables to handle that if your PC isn't directly below your monitor like mine is. Additionally I'd like to say the cable connecting the power brick to the monitor is also really short. There's a decent chance yours could end up dangling if it can't reach the floor from your desk, even if the cable you run from the plug to the brick isn't short.Ver másVer menos
