Pros: Worked perfect with my Asus Hero Mobo. Just fit under my large Coolermaster 212 Plus CPU cooler.

Cons: None.

Pros: Sharp image. G-sync works great.

Cons: Dark "shadow" area appeared across the top left quadrant after about 1 year, 2 months ownership. Sent in for warranty repair. Other than that, monitor has worked as advertised.

Overall Review: Refresh rate is low as indicated in other reviews.
