Is brightness an issue for this monitor? All the specs look great other than the 250 cd/m2 brightness. I've read that under 300 is a problem in a brightly-lit room.

I work and game in a brightly lit office space, and have two of these monitors. I have not noticed any issues between these 250 cd/m2 and others that are 300-400.

What is the actual refresh rate? Pic and specs says 180 but description and pic lower on page says 165?

The actual refresh rate of the ViewSonic VX2718-2KPC-MHD monitor is 180 Hz according to the product specifications.

What is the actual refresh rate? Pic and specs say 180 but description and pic lower on page say 165?
