PS5 barely hits 60fps, why don't you just play on a 4k TV?

I assume this isn't worth it for a PS5 because of no 4k

Unless you are specifically playing one of seven games(monster boy, quake, tourist, etc.) PS5 usually uses dynamic resolution and uses lower native resolution for 98% games anyway to 2k when ur at 120fps. You basically have to choose between fps and resolution. This is worth for those who choose to play at 120fps. If you want 4k, a TV would be better since it'll lower to 60 fps for almost every game on ps5

Looks pretty good but that 1000:1 contrast ratio is brutal
IPS Panel, This is pretty standard. If you want better contrast, you have to make compromises in motion quality by going with a VA panel.

I play on a LGs 27GP950 4k monitor at 120hz playing COD and it's a significant upgrade over 1440p if your susceptical to seeing the pixels etc which is the reason I go nuts now playing 1080 on a 24" even so trying to track down a QHD for my Poga Lux to replace its monitor ... Monitors are better to game on over TV's if your competitive or even semi competitive etc ..

That being said a 1440p monitor (the one listed by op) is a good monitor and if your on a 1080p it's a significant upgrade and well worth it

It's worth it if you want a solid gaming monitor .. my buddies and I all play PS5 on monitors and are happy .. some are on 1080p 24" still means they travel for work and that's what comes in travel cases like my Poga Lux but they have 1440p and 4k monitors at home .. I personally use a 4k 27" myself and play 120hz COD daily and I just picked up a 27" 1440p monitor for another buddy who was playing COD on a 24" 1080p because he's now basically 4k at 60hz means he's not a hard core run and gunner he didn't need the 120hz 1440p but I tested both and the graphics difference was minimal enough that even if he did eventually want to up his HZ to 120 he would be fine and he's very happy as now he can see BO6 alot better 😆

Not sure if it has pass-through charging on the USB-C.

Amazon price was $180 and they have an easier return process in case there's a dead pixel. I asked customer service for a price match on the same day, and they said they wouldn't honor sales from Amazon. Dell can kick bricks with this monitor that has terrible blooming issues.

I don't understand. This monitor doesn't have USB-C ports.
Edit: Are you talking about the included DisplayPort to USB-C cable? If so, then no. There is no power over that line. It's solely for video transmission. On the other hand, you could charge an iPad from one of the USB-A ports. Might be slow (4.5W at up to 2A), but it would charge. Use the port closest to the center of the monitor for BC 1.2 charging.
