Sceptre E255B-1658A 25" FHD 1080p 165Hz 144Hz 1ms AMD FreeSync gaming LED Monitor 2x HDMI 2.0 1x DisplayPort RTS FPS Build-in Speakers, Machine Black, Metallic Black

Came three days before the supposed arrival day, that was an awesome delivery services. Quality is great. came with a small screwdriver ( how cool is that! ) to screw the base. Out of the box it a great monitor that handles 165mhz and such a good price, way cheaper than other compared monitorsInstructions were simple to follow and it detected as a 165mhz monitor without any change in the advance settings. Im using a gaming laptop Cyberpower Tracer III extreme that has an GEForce 1060 and color and quality are top notch on the monitor.Only probles was that the laptop did not had any DP port which I had to use my regular HDMI cable. on testing PCMark was giving excellent performance, but all of the sudden the image went away for a second or two and it came back again and repeated the same pattern until the test were done. I tested with Minecraft and also gave me the black screen for a second again and detected the image again. I tried with Warframe and it did not loose the signal like the other game, I went to the settings and changed to 165mhz and while playing, it game me again the lost signal and detected again. I changed to 120mhz in game settings and it did not lost the signal any moment, so maybe the HDMI cable bottleneck is only 60MHZ since its an old cable.I ordered a HMDI to DP port cable of high quality in hopes that it will resolve the problem, but for the moment I have to lower the MHZ in games to 60 - 120 until I receive the new cable and do some further testing, but overall Im very pleased with the monitor. Ill update once I receive and try the new cable if it still loosing the signal.UPDATE: I was right. The bottleneck was the HDMI cable, since my laptop do not have a dp port I ordered a high quality HDMI cable , 4K up to 200 hz, As soon I plugged that cable, I changed all setting back to normal and Im gladly reporting that everything is running smoothly. It detected as a 165hz monitor and I played for several hours and I did not get any lost signal at all. I reversed all setting to max on my game WARFRAME and Im running at 165HZ. Im very pleased with the monitor and cable that I upgraded it.

I bought this while ago, the monitor is fully functional and works just fine. it is amazing for gaming I use this for my ps4 and I get great output from. The color that it lets out is really good for the price. It has a great deign to hide your cables it also has in the setting under quick start modes that is a very useful tool that I use there movie mode, fps, eco, and a few others the sound is ok and the edgeless is amazing I wish I bought 2. It has 3 hdmi and 1 dp that good for me because I use them all, and another amazing feature on this is that it is able to produce blue lights so that you you don't strain your eyes. but overall this monitor is great I use it to game and watch tv and have no problems. And one more thing is that this moniter is really big I was very surprised when I got it and the graphics a super super good.

9 months into using this screen for both work and gaming, I would say that it's now time to fully unwrap it :DWhen I first unboxed this monitor, I was a bit disappointed to see one dead pixel (see annotation in the second screenshot), but I decided to stick with it and trust that it would not become severe as time goes by. Confident to say that the photo taken in this review was taken today with my phone (9 months later) and the screen performs as new (no alarming issues so far).Needless to say, at some point, the screen turns itself off even when actively being used (not sure whether it's a software issue with the screen's power saving timers or whatnots) but it only occurs randomly and once in like a month or so (haven't had this issue for two to three months now).Overall, it's a great purchase for gaming enthusiasts wanting true 165hz refresh rates with AMD free sync. I'm considering pairing it with another 200hz curved screen from the same manufacturer for my workflow since I loved the quality and affordability of this screen.If you need a 1920 X 1080 gaming monitor with true 165hz refresh rate, consider this as a genuine selection in your list of preferences.

For the price, this thing really can't be beat! Extremely light, very thin bezel, and a sturdy mount for its size. Here's a breakdown of the pros and cons:Pros:- Higher refresh rate makes navigating through Windows feel amazing- Picture quality is great, and it makes animated youtube vids look fantastic- Higher refresh rate brings most of my games to life, and I can see the smoother gameplay vs my old 60Hz monitor -1ms response time is noticeable and extremely helpful as compared to 5ms- Almost unnoticeable bezelCons:- Monitor can't tilt enough forward, so I had to stick paper underneath rear leg to make it come forwards more; Not enough degrees of tilt- It's WAAAAAY too bright for my liking (tried lowering all the brightness and backlight settings, but at that point the picture quality turns to :poop:)- Higher refresh rates overworking my GPU (it now runs 15C hotter because it has to work harder to output more frames, although I can't really say it's a con, it's more of a no-brainer)Overall, it's definitely worth the upgrade from my old 1080p Asus 21" monitor. Having a 60Hz panel made my 1060 run fairly cool, as it's not too hard to output 60 frames. However, now that it has lee-way for 165 frames, it does what it can, but at the price of heat and GPU usage. It's to be expected, cause the GPU has to work more, but not sure how much it will affect the longevity of my GPU. Even though my 1060 can't run all games at that high refresh rate, even if it can output 75, the difference is immediately felt. My experience definitely improved. I'm happy I bought this instead of an AOC monitor.
