if you wanted crappy speakers you could just buy some for $5
While I appreciate the effort, I hope people recognize that these kind of review sites do not actually offer much insight. There is an entire web authoring industry spitting out extremely generic and shallow reviews on products - which they have never even touched in person - based solely on the specifications sheet or by cribbing from e-commerce customer reviews (i.e. summarizing Amazon reviews). The entire purpose is to capture traffic from Google in order to sell ads, and to gain referral revenue.

Real reviews will include photos of the product that are clearly not just lifted from the manufacturer's website, and will usually have a more personal description that includes the author's actual hands on experience with the product.
have 2 of these for kids gaming rigs and they have worked flawlessly over 6 months. think these are a monitor at great price point for 165hz, QHD, IPS.

Pretty good price given the part shortages and such. It would compliment greatly with a nice gaming computer on a budget.

I bought one of these for my GF's gaming rig. She put it next to a 27" IPS Apple monitor, and they look amazing together. I went IPS because she is more of a designer than a gamer.

I'm tempted to buy another at this price.

The 27" Apple monitor cost exponentially more, and had slightly better color reproduction. Not worth the cost unless you are making professional money from it, IMO.

But it is 60hz and no Adaptive refresh rate. I was really surprised how huge a difference the adaptive refresh was for modern games. I don't think I can go back. It lets you use 100% of your GPU in most games.
