This monitor is worth the money
Okay this monitor is worth all your paying I’ve played on some nice tvs but this is my first monitor I know not enough experience but listen to me I have played video games for a long time maybe not as long as you but I started at 5 I’m now 17 so with that being the monitor is gorgeous we have a pretty nutty living room setup as we have 3 tvs 2 scepters and a lg all three are put up for me my dad and my little brother to play Xbox together and tbh it’s fun asf and then there’s the scepter monitor my setup this thing runs so damn smooth at 165hz I went from hating war zone (I was on 720p like 60hz maybe) to now loving the game along with games like Fortnite destiny 2 apex legends ect anyway going to 1080p 165hz at a smooth 160fps this monitor has gave me multiple pr’s on some games and for graphics i play games like gta destiny it will make you feel like you’re in vr bro this curve is nuts it’s not to big anyway I’m getting bored monitor is absolutely amazing.

Excellent value for you money
I was a little skeptical that this monitor could be any good for only $170, but my skepticism was misplaced! It’s a good monitor with decently high rates (up to 165mz) and 2560 x 1440 resolution. I basically bought it because I wanted more screen area for some of my games, but now I use it for work as well. If you want a larger, curved monitor but you don’t want to mortgage your house to get one, look no further. Highly recommended.

Not bad, unless you get a dud
When I got this late August this year, I thought this monitor was too good to be true for the price. Turns out it was, because one day it turned off randomly. I thought it died right then, but I turned it back on by unplugging it from the wall for a couple minutes and then plugging it back in. But this issue of randomly turning off did not go away. Can’t use a monitor that turns off. Hopefully there is some way that this can be resolved, but knowing how these things usually go my 230 bucks was completely wasted! I will never in my life buy another sceptre product!Update 1/28/21: Sceptre was able to repair my monitor for free, and I was lucky that they did, because not long after writing my initial review my unit completely refused to power on. I have been using it now trouble free for about a week so I will write a more thorough review. This was my first ever DP compatible monitor which has proven to me that DP is far superior to HDMI. I have yet to experience any signal loss caused by the included cable. The monitor itself boots up in about 3 seconds so if I turn on my PC then my monitor it will typically show the windows login screen popping up. The screen has great colors to my eye. My RX 580 8gb can handle 144hz in a decent amount of titles. Certain games after playing with a higher refresh I am ruined and I can hardly bare to play at 60hz. For example: Doom, Killing Floor 2, Fallout 4, Rocket League. I notice that Sceptre advertises up to 165hz, well in windows settings there is an option for 144 or 185hz but not 165. When attempting 185hz I noticed a bit more ghosting with overdrive on. I’m sure this is something that can be fixed in AMD drivers but I haven’t bothered because 144 looks great to me. I do think that there should be a variable setting for overdrive instead of just on or off. Sometimes content playing at 60hz while the screen is set to 144hz will look juttery. Setting the monitor to 60 will smooth it out a bit but it will still look a little juttery. Because of this, if you are playing a game at 60hz and you drop frames it will be a lot more noticeable. If you can just live with it, it’s really not that bad. The colors alone are good enough to keep playing games like Red Dead 2 (which throttles to 60 with my setup.) If you are coming from a lower refresh rate monitor you will immediately notice the extra fluidity in motion. One thing to keep in mind is that with older cards you will probably need to lower your in-game settings to keep a steady 144. Another thing is that 1080p is being phased out pretty quickly in favor of 1440p, and I can see why. 1080p is much better than 720p but pixels can be seen even from an optimal distance. Things like aliasing will stand out, which will be made worse with lower settings. Before buying this monitor I was really overdue for an upgrade and I feel like I got that for a decent price. In the future I will definitely want a 1440p setup but that will wait until I can afford a new graphics card, cpu, and monitor. My experience with this monitor started off rocky, but hopefully since it’s been repaired it won’t go bad again. After receiving a unit that failed and it being my first Sceptre product, I will be buying from a different brand. Overall, I like this monitor a lot when it works. Thanks.

I wasn’t expecting to see such a difference in quality with the increased hz, but am really happy right now.I chose to buy this model because it’s actually the most affordable in this range. Just be sure to go into advanced display properties and set monitor hz to 180!! The only issue was that they gave me the wrong power cord but I contacted Amazon and they put me in touch with customer service and within 2 minutes they agreed to send me the correct power cord. Waiting for it now but using a cord that came with my other Sceptre monitor.

No conocía la marca, pero me dejo sorprendido, tiene una gran fluidez con los juegos que he tenido oportunidad de probar. La escalada de 185Hz solo es con DP, pero esto no es un problema, pues el monitor viene con uno, y de gran extensión. Sin duda tiene una gran calidad, y su soporte puede ser remplazado sin problemas, por lo que puedes optar por otro de mayor gusto o preferencia.
