Good monitor for the price, but some minor issues...

Acer S241HL bmid UM.FS1AA.001 24" Full HD 1920 x 1080 5ms 60 Hz D-Sub, DVI, HDMI Built-in Speakers LCD Monitor
Acer S241HL bmid UM.FS1AA.001 24" Full HD 1920 x 1080 5ms 60 Hz D-Sub, DVI, HDMI Built-in Speakers LCD Monitor

Pros: Very good monitor for gaming, possibly the best 1080p monitor I have ever seen for under $250. The speakers are meh, but they work, and most people who will use this monitor will use it for gaming or videos, where you will generally use a headset. The average contrast ratio is great, if you want it to be, the blacks look like the monitor is off, where as the whites are blinding. Both the monitor and HDMI cable's build quality is superb. a few weeks ago, a 10 pound subwoofer fell from about 2 feet directly onto the hdmi cable. Though the connector got pulled partially out of it's housing, upon bending it back, it works like nothing happened. This monitor is also very power efficient, it uses a little more than half the wattage of my previous monitor.

Cons: The monitor overdrive can't be adjusted, and this monitor does not like overclocked video cards. Every time I boot my PC once I started overclocking (even after replacing the card, and even when not overclocking), I have to turn on AMD overdrive in catalyst control center to avoid tearing. After starting Overdrive in CCC, there are never any further issues. As stated above, the speakers are not the best, but, what can you expect out of onboard monitor speakers

Overall Review: This monitor is BIG, make sure you know what a 24" monitor looks like. Also, this monitor goes on sale frequently (about once a month). Either when it's on sale or not, its a really good value, but, if you can, wait a little to see if you can get a better price

Would be nice if I had, Ya know, received more than a quarter of my order, now more than 2 weeks later.

Upon receiving my package (supposed to be four metal keys, W, A, S, and D), I found only an "S" key. I feel that this was likely intentional, as the listed shipping weight is for 1 key, not 4, and this company does not sell single keys. When I contacted their customer support, the poorly translated english was nearly unreadable, this support, while dealing with an issue that I made clear I thought to be intentional, asked me, WHEN THEY WERE REPLACING AN ITEM THAT THEY (seemingly intentionally) ONLY GAVE ME PART OF, if I wished to purchase anything else, which to me seems more than a little rude. Additionally, though they said they would ship the remainder of my order, it is now more than a week later, and have not received a tracking number, or any other indication that I will receive my keys in the foreseeable future.
