    Thanks for the review. I've been looking for a review for this particular monitor."

      Yeah I must admit when I was looking to buy it I had a look online and there wasn't a great deal of reviews on it, found that quite surprising considering it's price.

    I have a question too, what keyboard and mouse is that in the beginning of the video?

      It's the Corsair K70 RGB mk.2 low profile rapidfire keyboard and the Corsair Dark Core RGB Pro SE mouse

      @@BrisyTechBytesthanks 😊. Also curious, how deep is your desk? I’m trying to figure out if this will be too big for me and my desk or if I should go for it. The alternative is MSIs G2712 , but I’m scared the pixel will be showing on that after reading reviews, have you seen that monitor too?

    • @BrisyTechBytes
      @BrisyTechBytes  15 днів тому

      @jennyj1348 my desk is 635mm deep, monitors are mounted on a moubt attached to the table, if they were wall mounted I could get them a little further back.
      Yeah I've seen that other monitor you mentioned, seems a really good price, can't say I've looked at any reviews of it though.

    Hey, great review. I actually prefer it being flat as you can mount it on the wall. just a quick question, how does texts look on it? is it sharp enough for normal productivity?

    • @BrisyTechBytes
      @BrisyTechBytes  16 днів тому +1

      Text looks good on it, I use mine for gaming and work and the text all looks sharp, for what I paid I'm really pleased with this monitor so far.

    Great review. I think the new OLED monitors will cause price reductions in existing models. Worth hanging on till the end of the year?

      Thanks for the feedback.
      Not so sure about this coming down in price later, only reason I say that is that the 34" Ultrawide that I had for a few years is still the same price today as it was back then 😬, in saying that I think this MSI was originally being sold for around £450

    I want to buy this monitor but I'm not sure about the size. I'm not sure if 40 inch is too big or ideal for 3440x1440p resolution. How does the text look? Have you had any problems with text clarity? And how far away are you looking at the monitor?

    • @BrisyTechBytes
      @BrisyTechBytes  7 днів тому +1

      Text clarity is good on this monitor, it wasn't a major factor for me but I did wonder if the text would look more pixilated due the different in pixel density between my old 34" and this monitor, but the figure difference is marginal.
      Regarding the distance, without measuring if say I sit a couple of feet away, think you can see that in the video although when gaming with a controller I tend to sit a little further back.

    I actually own this monitor I purchased it in Dec , I like it my only complaint is the color accuracy , I have a Dell ultrasharp U2415 right above it on a dual arm and the color wasn't great compared to my Dell out the box and needed to be configured. Besides that monitor is great and an amazing value.

    • @BrisyTechBytes
      @BrisyTechBytes  16 днів тому

      Yeah I was a bit similar regarding the colour, not that I wsd unhappy with it out the box but more with trying to get it to match the monitor above, still can't get it right but it's not bothering me that much. Great monitor though and as you say, great value for what you get, appreciate the feedback 👍
