Pros: Coming from a 1080p monitor I was blown away by the higher resolution. The colors are absolutely amazing. G-Sync/FreeSync makes for a buttery smooth gaming experience. 144Hz is fantastic! I didn’t have any dead pixels which I was very happy about.

Cons: Maybe I’m just unlucky but mine has pretty bad backlight bleed. It’s not noticeable in-game but during loading screens, or anytime the screen is all black, the backlight bleed is bad. Adjusting brightness didn’t help either. The other con I noticed is that there is some ghosting. I think since the response rate isn’t GTG and it being a VA panel this is fairly normal. This wasn’t an issue on the 1ms GTG 144Hz 1080p TN monitor I came from.

Overall Review: For the price I feel like this is a great monitor. The resolution and color depth/accuracy is amazing. Since I don’t really play competitive FPS games that much the ghosting isn’t an issue for me. But the backlight bleed is pretty obnoxious.

Pros: This case has so many pros that it would be easier to just make a list! -It's HUGE! So plenty of room for any type of build. -Big side window -Compatible with many different water cooling setups. I have a Corsair H110 with a push- pull configuration mounted above the motherboard and it fit perfectly! -The LEDs in the rear are super handy -The interior fans can be adjusted to different angles which is great because you get to control where the air flows. -It has several removable dust filters which can be washed. There are many more great things about this case but these were the highlights for me personally.

Cons: -The screws are pretty easily stripped if you're not careful. -Price could be an issue for some but you get what you pay for! -I wish there was a little more room for cable management in the back. It's a bit tight. These are really only minor things though. It's really an awesome case!

Overall Review: I did a custom paint job on this case which really made it look great!
