Pros: The monitor is very cheap price and came with an hdmi cord among other connection types.

Cons: The monitor has problems with bleached out colors. My first experience using the monitor for gaming was Metro: Last Light which is a very dark game and no matter how much I played with the monitor settings I could not get it show black as anything more than grey even with the games gamma to the lowest. Another issue I had was that the monitor stand is so stiff too the point that I was completely unaware that it adjustable until I read online it was. Once you do get it adjusted, which feels like you are going to snap the stand in the process, it loosens up and is much easier to adjust after that. Overall the colors are just extremely bleached out and is extremely noticeable in dark games. I can't recommend the monitor to anyone who plans to use it for gaming.
