I think it is only good for console gaming since it is just 60Hz. Any comment gaming experts?

I have this monitor. It has the old HDMI and does not work in 4k with the ps4 pro.

also documented here
https://acer.co/2Z8WTu4

but for pc use it's amazing. I use it for work and some gaming.
the text is really crisp and images look fantastic. honestly though, not worth it for the gsync. wish the hz was at least 75.

this monitor has significant backlight bleed and DisplayPort might have connection issues.

Thank you. Further checked the specs and this monitor only has HDMI 1.4. It is not good for PS5 which requires HDMI 2.0.

lol this, you hear a lot of crazy stories on here about people getting away with all sorts of price matches that ignore the typical corporate rules. Though obviously some of the stories are exaggerated/lies.

Those stories aren't exaggerated or outright lies, but I will add it's mostly a thing of the past now. Most credit card companies recently terminated their price matching policies. My last price matching card was my Citi Costco card. On one occasion, they price matched my OLED with an online competitor -- $500 off. I paid $1700 total, and $500 (the limit at the time) came straight back into my account. Managed another price match on a 9900K -- something like $200 off. Those were the days. Sorry you missed Wink

You can find better deals on these if you just watch for them. I paid $50 more for the Predator Z321QU, which is 165Hz and Curved. Really though, you're almost better off going with a Freesync monitor since they're less expensive. I got mine back in 2018, so I was stuck having to go with a G-Sync monitor since I was running an Nvidia GPU

IMO any monitor that is 60hz doesn't qualify as a "gaming monitor".

Yeah, just buy a 4K TV for less than half the money; because all this is is a ridiculously overpriced TV with fewer inputs and no smart functions.

That is a VERY GOOD opinion to create a categaory with, as I am often struggling to find a quality screen that is color correct with high Adobe RGB gamut and 4K, IPS, 30-34" size and non-curved...
But with the wide spectrum of color and color space limitations Gaming screens have, they are not optimal for photo editing.
But with screens using 60hz have no issues in anything else but gaming, or video watching?
Im not sure on that.
But what manufacturers do is raise the price "unfairly" on screens that are for editing, as this segment was part of a photo industry segment that is taking longer than expected in some cases to come down in price. We now do have $500 lighting that is directly compared and BETTER than $1500, we have cameras that were $6-8000 now around $3000...We have sensors that were $25,000 now compared to $5000 or less even. So while there are examples of Eizo high price screens of $3000 being matched rather close with $1200...
BUT, this is only priced high due to the market. There is no reason not to get a great screen for gaming or color critical work for less than $600 for a 4k IPS ~32" screen that has tight lighting, with 99% Adobe RGB and a LUT that can be calibrated of 12-14bit.
But...Its taking time.

The photo industry after the econ fall of 2008 has taken so many stabs of a downfall, only similar in some ways to the music industry(at least they have or had live gigs).
But hope to see some adjustments soon!
