This monitor is amazing! So glad I got it! My only complaint is the speakers. They are quiet and have too much bass.

Yeah the speakers are awful 😂 I use a headset for gaming I bought a cheapish pair of speakers for everything else , anything is better than the ones in that monitor 😉

What settings did you end up with? Have you installed the colour profile that came on the disk? It's much better than than the windows default :) there are a few on tft central aswell . I found asus own to be the best for me :)

I'm using the windows default color settings. On the monitor I'm using
Brightness at 40
Contrast 50
Saturation 48
Fps mode
R95
G93
B100

Just a quick question on your monitor, do you have an option to turn off your Red led lights on your stand??

Yes it's called light in motion or something and it can be turned off :)

Thanks :) Reason I ask is some folks who bought one of the ASUS Monitors, found / reported, that their are some models that give the user No Choice to turn those lights off. Can't remember the dam model ....

I think it was the TN version of the monitor.

Thanks for the info, at some point I will be upgrading my monitor this summer. Been looking at the Asus Monitors :)
