Just a few quick tips for this monitor. The gamma and colors are off quite a bit out of the box. Rtings did a professional calibration and created an ICC profile. If you install it and use their user profile color adjustments it goes from a 6.5 to 9.6 rating out of 10 in their opinion.

ICC profile (google how to properly enable this if you don't know how, you have to do more than simply install it) http://i.rtings.com/images/review...profil.icm

User colors: R-87 G-96 B-100

I prefer the brightness set in the mid 20s depending on my room conditions.

*Important - disable the Deep Sleep feature in the menu, sometimes it bugs out and makes it impossible to wake up the monitor without powering off your computer and unplugging the monitor to reset the power.

Also check your panel closely for dead/stuck pixels and excessive backlight bleed. My first one of these bought several months ago had horrible uniformity on one side, the exchanged one is almost perfect.

Picked one of these up on the Black Friday sale. Should get here in a week. Had been eyeing this one for awhile.

Before this sale, I hadn't seen it go below about $450 before. Dell MSRP is like $600 on this thing. (Not that it ever sold for that...) This is a good deal!

This is a fantastic monitor. Just don't put it next to an IPS. I used to have it next to my predator IPS and it didn't look great but by itself it is a great gaming monitor. great price.

I got this mid year for $350 at Best Buy. Very happy with it. If I could, I would buy a second one

I got this delivered Friday, paid $350, got the Samsung Pay Rewards 30% cash back deal. Ended up being just under $189 after the cash back and taxes. If you weren't in the incredibly small group that got that amazing deal, this is still a great deal!

I am so impressed with the display, I am considering buying another one at $350 before tax. The colors are incredible for a TN panel. If you are on the fence, grab one and look up a color profile for the settings, you won't be disappointed. The gsync is awesome if you have a gtx 1070 or better

I don't think this monitor is worth it unless you have a Nvidea card, or plan to buy one soon. Otherwise you can probably grab something cheaper and IPS.

Need some advice. How does this compare to Alienware - AW2518H 25" LED FHD GSync Monitor? I have the Alienware but it's couple of inches smaller and 1080p. I'll have the GTX 1070 shortly.

I would grab this dell, I love playing on this thing, been eating it up all weekend.

It's still a lot of money to spend, especially if you have to buy a card too. So take that into consideration. And you already have a decent monitor, maybe spend the money on a 2070 or a 1070ti and buy an even better monitor in the spring.

Edit: it also depends on the type of games you play, the higher refresh rate of the AW2518H is better for competive FPS games, but for casual single player games and esport games, the Dell 144Hz is more than capable, and I certainly enjoy the extra size and resolution.

Picked up this monitor earlier today! This is THE monitor to go for if you want 27" 1440p Gsync. I experience ghosting when I turn on FAST mode in monitor settings. It was amazing playing Star Citizen with this but i'm really looking forward to Final Fantasy XIV because more screen space!
