There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
My current build is an i7 2700k with a GTX 1050 ti and is what will be used for this review until I get my new system built (which I know will use this monitor to its' full potential).
Let me just start by saying, "WOW!" There's only one word to describe it ... just ... WOW!
First, the packaging was stellar. No issues there. This thing could be thrown off of a building and the monitor would take it like a champ. It would simply brush it off and walk off like a boss. I then opened the box and learned that the base/stand is metal (that is built rather well) and also came with a Display Port Cable AND a pretty darn nice phillips-head screwdriver to put the stand/monitor together! Like ... whaaat? Putting it together was a breeze and I was rather impressed with the look. But I was still anxious about what this monitor would look like and how it would "feel" once turned on.
I got everything hooked up, took a deep breathe and said, "well, at least it looks good," and turned the PC and monitor on.
Two words ... "HOLY MOTHER OF ALL THINGS COLOR! THIS IS BEAUTIFUL!" Okay, that was more like 9 words, but that was my first reaction to seeing my PC Desktop Background for the first time on this badboy. My Asus was hooked up as my second monitor and it looked like complete TRASH next to the eye nectar I as receiving from this Sceptre monitor. I quickly ran out and got my wife and said, "honey, you have to see this!" As if she would care for this kind of eye-candy ... but I had to show SOMEBODY!!!! She came in and said, "oh wow, that's a huge difference." Let me just say, the blacks were black, the colors were vibrant (I honestly thought someone made a mistake and fabricated this monitor as an IPS panel instead of a TN panel) and no dead pixels anywhere. No backlighting showing through ... nothing. BUT ... the real test was yet to come ... and my anxiety was starting to peek. Could this monitor deliver in the gaming department? Or is it like the beautiful girl with no personality?
I loaded the new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and got a few of my crew together to put this bad-boy to the test. Before I did so, I made sure to have freesync on (which enables G-Sync ... YES, G-SYNC) in the monitor settings and checked to see if my video card settings were showing G-sync enables ... which it was.
The match started loading and I was sitting there like a kid on Christmas day waiting to open that first present. Then it happened ... the match started. I noticed my FPS in the top left corner hitting 110-130 FPS (that's a first) and it was as smooth as Marvin Gaye and Barry White singing at a night club together MELTING the ladies. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. This monitor delivered in every way possible. I can't imagine how good this thing will work when I complete my new build.
Pros: Everything. I cannot stress this enough ... this monitor WILL DO G-SYNC if you have a 10 or 20 series GPU. I understand that it isn't on the "NVIDIA LIST" of monitors, but I can assure you, G-SYNC is recognized and works with this monitor. Anyone that says otherwise doesn't know what they're talking about.
Cons: The speakers are 100% complete trash. If you're looking for a monitor with quality speakers, this one isn't for you. I play with Sennheiser headset and an Astro mixamp ... so i could care less about the speakers.
If you're hesitant to buy this monitor like I was, don't be. This bad boy will do everything it says it will and then some. It looks AMAZING for a TN monitor! So stop reading about it and buy it already! What are you waiting for, Christmas? PFFFT ... BUY IT! You'll thank me later.
TL;DR ... This monitor is amazing ... from the build quality to the colors and performance ... it's amazing. Stop reading about it and just pull the trigger. You will not regret buying this monitor.
