Colors are accurate and look nice without appearing a bit too oversaturated, a problem i have with other monitor panel types, which in games to me personally causes them to look overly bright and cartoony. This is nothing like older TN technology. These new 2nd generation 240hz TN panels are amazing. The online manual also said a displayport cable should be included, but Acer's online support said that it was 'optional,' but all the other included cables, like HDMI and USB, were also labelled as 'optional.'Gaming wise, this beats the MSI 240hz 0.5ms G-Sync monitor because it doesn't trail as much when the overdrive setting is set to extreme, but again, this doesn't come with the necessary cable to get to 240hz right out of the box! That's another 10-20 dollars needed to get the most out of this monitor. Why would Acer sell a 240hz monitor and not include the cable to achieve 240hz? All my other gaming monitors came with the necessary cables to get it to its advertised speeds. I opted for replacement instead, and when the second monitor arrived, I saw that it also didn't have a displayport cable. Acer, you did a great job, but the QC and missing cable justified a replacement for me.Final update: 3/5 because customer support said they'd send me a displayport cable. The light bleeding went away though, and everything else about this monitor is fantastic for gaming, especially on games like Overwatch. Also, I looked up the manual online, and there was supposed to be a Displayport included. Image quality is sub par, but this is going to be used primarily for gaming.UPDATE: I ordered a replacement because there's a piece of metal sticking in front of one of the HDMI ports.

I'm hitting more of my shots, and that's coming from a 144hz VA panel. So far, this monitor is great for gaming. This monitor also had light bleed on the bottom left area, but it went away after about 30 minutes.

I don't know if it's my specific unit, but there was no displayport cable, so I couldn't get 240hz without getting another displayport cable. Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2019 Great Monitor, but THERE IS NO DISPLAYPORT CABLE INCLUDED w/ THIS 240hz monitor!
