Make sure that you have a high quality HDMI cable that handles more than 60 mhz signal.
Came three days before the supposed arrival day, that was an awesome delivery services. Quality is great. came with a small screwdriver ( how cool is that! ) to screw the base. Out of the box it a great monitor that handles 165mhz and such a good price, way cheaper than other compared monitorsInstructions were simple to follow and it detected as a 165mhz monitor without any change in the advance settings. Im using a gaming laptop Cyberpower Tracer III extreme that has an GEForce 1060 and color and quality are top notch on the monitor.Only probles was that the laptop did not had any DP port which I had to use my regular HDMI cable. on testing PCMark was giving excellent performance, but all of the sudden the image went away for a second or two and it came back again and repeated the same pattern until the test were done. I tested with Minecraft and also gave me the black screen for a second again and detected the image again. I tried with Warframe and it did not loose the signal like the other game, I went to the settings and changed to 165mhz and while playing, it game me again the lost signal and detected again. I changed to 120mhz in game settings and it did not lost the signal any moment, so maybe the HDMI cable bottleneck is only 60MHZ since its an old cable.I ordered a HMDI to DP port cable of high quality in hopes that it will resolve the problem, but for the moment I have to lower the MHZ in games to 60 – 120 until I receive the new cable and do some further testing, but overall Im very pleased with the monitor. Ill update once I receive and try the new cable if it still loosing the signal.UPDATE: I was right. The bottleneck was the HDMI cable, since my laptop do not have a dp port I ordered a high quality HDMI cable , 4K up to 200 hz, As soon I plugged that cable, I changed all setting back to normal and Im gladly reporting that everything is running smoothly. It detected as a 165hz monitor and I played for several hours and I did not get any lost signal at all. I reversed all setting to max on my game WARFRAME and Im running at 165HZ. Im very pleased with the monitor and cable that I upgraded it.

Awesome Gamer Monitor At An Even Greater Price Point
Condition: Out of the box, I did light a candle and make a wish that this monitor did not have any dead pixels or screen bleed around the edges. I was lucky…none, the gods were listening. Nice thin panel with a very small edge. Did not use the stand, as I bought a monitor adjustable arm for 20 bucks on a lightening deal. Set.Display: First boot, using the ‘Standard’ picture settings, not bad, but it is bright, or should I say, full of contrast. Gaming looked awesome, but reading a web page, gray text was a little washed-out, my eyes hurt from the bright white pages, however color was good. That is what you are dealing with using the standard settings. Fire up the calibration, taking many attempts, I finally got the almost perfect color/contrast balance.Calibration: You will need to calibrate this monitor if you care about your eyes, other than gaming, either manually, or I used Displaycal software and a Spyder5 express calibrator. The software always wants you to get all the RGB colors and white point to a set point using your monitor’s color controls before calibration begins. I found on this monitor that getting the white point to where it wanted resulted in a very bright/washed out reading text, slightly better than out of the box settings. I adjusted and left the white point below standard start point, then calibrated, and got a near perfect reading calibration, with colors that are beautiful and accurate. It is still a bright monitor, and in my book that is a good thing. Most gaming monitors (AOC monitors) are washed out, dull. You won’t have that here. Graphic/Cad designers, I would say this monitor is not for you. I would stay with the 2k/144hz monitors where DPI really kicks in, coupled with the fact I had to wrestle with the calibration on this monitor, and it is still not perfect, as far as heavy graphic work standards. For gamers, the blacks are some of the most brilliant black I have seen yet on a monitor, like being lost in the void, and the colors pop…perfect gamer monitor.Gaming: I haven’t done a lot yet, but OMG. You can just tell the smoothness and colors are excellent. I have an i5-9600k cpu, nvidia 1660 super OC gpu, and to begin I turned on Free-sync on the monitor, along with turning on ‘Overdrive,” and G-Sync settings on the computer’s driver software, and all was good to go. 165 htz registered baby! If you are buying this, and you probably are, for nothing but gaming…don’t even hesitate, get it. I will test with more games, and update if I find any issues. A+Minor ‘issues’: Things that bug, the power and monitor ports are situated right below the bottom of the monitor. That means if you are big into cable management, that is an issue. You will always see the cords sticking out from the bottom, or at least the top of the plugs.Conclusion: Gamers, get this monitor now. Graphic/CAD workers, hard call, will take a LOT of calibrating and not sure if you can get ‘the best’ end result with such a bright/contrast-filled monitor for excellent, detailed graphics and color work.
