Absolutely, the monitor you got is heavily promoted as a professional gaming display. However, real-world testing shows comparable performance on a screen priced around $170, with a response time just under 1ms—unless you're among the very elite, like top CS:GO players.
Guys... it really depends on the screen type. I have a 1080p Toshiba LCD TV, and everything looks blurry no matter what. My 27-inch 1080p Asus IPS monitor, though, gives a sharp display, and with DSR 4K it actually feels like 4K quality. I’m using an MSI 1440p IPS, but honestly the Asus 1080p looks better overall—brighter colors and a more natural picture.
