This thing reminds me of when 1440x900 was mainly what people had. The VGA port makes sense, as this monitor would also be sold as other brands in developing countries where VGA is still widely used. That's how Walmart gets them so cheap; it's just a mass-manufactured unit they put an ONN stamp on. That mic sounds shockingly good for what it is. Is that an fp in the background?

[@blahorgaslisk7763]

The brain is incredibly good at tricking itself. What I'm talking about is that headset. Even if you can hear a huge difference in sound quality when listening to different headsets or speakers your brain will moderate your perception of the sound quality if you stick to one setup for long enough. I've had enough crappy computer speakers and headsets to have experienced it numerous times. For most people this is enough that after a while even a very crappy setup will be acceptable.

[@louiesatterwhite3885]

@@blahorgaslisk7763 that part about the brain moderating sound quality is very true.

[@blahorgaslisk7763]

@@louiesatterwhite3885 Well it works as long as you don't have some other sound source that has much better sound quality. Switching between say a decent pair of headphones and crappy speakers and the other way around will remind you every time just how bad one of them are. Now if that is a big problem is another question. Some people, me included, aren't all that particular about it while others can't stand it. Now aging has taken a toll on my hearing with tinnitus and high frequencies getting hard to hear. And yet my brain insists my hearing is fine... Be kind to your ears while you are young. I know it feels like you are invincible, like nothing can harm you, but when you're fifty and your hearing degrades a bit more every day it's to late to do anything about it. I did almost all of the damage to my hearing before I turned thirty. After that I've been pretty careful, but the damage was already done.

Game mode SEEMS to help with latency issues and it can be overclocked to 75 Herz but it loses even more of it's contrast. I'd say, if you're broke and it's on a deal get it. Need a cheap second display? On sale? Get it. If not. Don't waste your money. It's average
