If you are only looking to get the best performance monitor out there (meaning you want fast response time and as many frames per second on your screen) then this monitor will be great. If you want that and a good picture quality, youre going to have to look elsewhere. I used the monitor for about a year before deciding to sell it on ebay because I just got tired of the lackluster image quality. I would buy high end games and the image was just never at the level of what I was looking for. If you buy the monitor, youre going to have to download a color profile from a website (I think I got mine from CNET) to even get anything remotely enjoyable. The image youll get with that isnt bad, but it is certainly not great. For most, this will be fine. The improved performance during shooters and other fast moving games will far outweigh any downsides to having a less than stellar image quality. But, if you dont play shooters and dont need the insane refresh rate and response time, then you might be better off going with another monitor that has a better image with a 60Hz refresh rate. Just to reiterate, this isnt a bad monitor...you just need to know what type of game you enjoy playing. If shooters and fast moving games arent for you, then look elsewhere. If Overwatch and Destiny 2 are your jam, then this will be great.
