Personally, it did perfectly fine for me, and found it to be an EXCELLENT QHD IPS monitor. This is one of those products you HAVE to test to see if it works for you. For some however, it seems to be a total deal-breaker as some report dizziness, can't properly read, or just plain that 'different' text render does end up being negative for some. I can clearly see how text looks different than on my previous RGB-layout monitor, but for me, it wasn't a negative change. For me, setting it up for BGR in ClearType in Windows was more than enough. Here's what I found: it varies from person to person. This, as for many others, was a big concern when buying, wondering whether it would affect me. Yes, the panel is weird, as instead of using the much more common RGB subpixel layout, it uses that BGR one you've read so much about and how it makes text on the m onitor blurry/hard to read. so the switch is not as flexible as you'd think.Ģ. This means you must buy a USB-C to USB-C Gen 3.1 (10Gbps) cable, that is not included, AND your laptop has to have this capability as well.

NOTE that the KVM switches between two devices only: One connected through HDMI and DP, and the other (usually laptop) through USB-C. Response times on this IPS panel allow for very good gaming performance and quality, and the included KVM switch is awesome for those of us that work from home, having your work laptop on one side, and your personal PC on the other.ġ.
