i generally avoid monitors that don't tell me the real contrast ratio and instead blow meaningless infinity to the power of 2 : 1 ultra optimized proprietary dynamic smoke up my ass.
But it looks OK



Pretty much no monitor states the actual contrast ratio. And It's not really a static number, It changes as you adjust brightness/etc.

i wouldnt even buy a 1080p monitor anymore 4k prices dropped alot



If you play 4k on a 1060..
You're going to have a bad time.

I have 3 of these, Assuming you can find them for a decent price via retail they're super worth it

I got mine for $450 each at release via Best Buy, when all other monitors match those specs but IPS over the TN panel were $700+


Holy over priced batman!


Also, why is everyone recommending him 4k/1440p when he has a 1060 >_<

it's actually totally fine if you lower settings
960 will still play at 4k low 60fps and is much slower than the 1060

Who wants to spend a bunch on a PC, Then buy a 4k monitor.. Just to play things on low.
