I've been using this Viewsonic VX2778-SMHD 27 inch monitor since Jan, 2017, Very nice monitor! But, then I built a dream machine. i7-14700K on an ASRock Z790 Riptide motherboard with lots of SSD's and NVME drives. 48 gigs of very fast RAM and two DVDRW's. I'm pretty good at this and I did my very best not to allow any bottlenecks and not spend money on silly things. It absolutely screams; it gets stuff done fast! I also have an older Intel computer, an AMD computer, and a Raspberry Pi in here. So I have an HDMI KVM switcher and an HDMI audio extractor (audio goes straight to a competent home stereo). So, I don't play any games anymore, but I do want to get stuff done!There came a point where I wanted to make use of this somewhat better video card that's better than anything I've ever used. (Still not for gaming, tho.) I scoured Amazon. I ended up getting an NVidia GeForce GTX 1660 used, that was DIRT cheap! I chewed my nails wondering if it was going to work, but it did and it does! From the first momen, for about 9 or 10 months! I forget how much memory it's got, but it's up there. So, now, I had this video card mostly going to waste (Except for hardware acceleration; that's really nice!) So, I measured how much room I have. If I looked at monitors with really thin frames around the screen and measured and did the math... I decided on 32 inches. I scoured Amazon again and got to this monitor: (KTC H32T13 32 Inch)I had a little trouble. First of all, I'm lazy. I was still building that i7 and I set the monitor aside after unpacking it and went through all my other stuff I had to do first. (The other 2 computers mentioned above both needed some help.) (And the computer room needed some rearranging.) There's also that fact that there was absolutely nothing wrong with the old Viewsoni; there was no pressure... Anyway! From March 22nd until just now - two days ago - it just sat there. I don't even know where the quick start guide or whatever it is, went to, and I didn't want to conduct a lengthy search. Someone wrote that the power button is in a bad place. It's not that bad at all. I spent a little while finding it; reach your hand around the monitor's right side, near the bottom and feel for it. It sticks way out. The only time I have to reach for it is when I'm leaving the computer room to watch TV or go out or whatever. I can't reach it sitting down, but I'm getting up anyway at that point. Then I was totally puzzled, trying to figure out how to set the settings on the monitor. It wasn't bad, but I wanted to tweak the brightness, contrast, hue, gamma, etc. It took me quite a while to figure out that that power button, which is also a menu button (if you just touch it instead of holding it for three seconds) IS ALSO A JOYSTICK! Remember that! You can move it left, right, up, and down. Once I figured that out, it has a VERY logical, easy to use menu, unlike the Viewsonic mentioned about. The next problem I had was that a lot of things were ghosted in the menu and couldn't be selected. Scratching my head, I theorized that probably the video card was running the monitor and I turned to the NVidia Control Panel on the computer. There are at least three different places to set all that on that i7 machine, but it ended up being the screen display settings that did it.I love this monitor now! Plenty bright, fast, 2K, really great picture!! If the power button in the back is even a negative, I don't mind a bit. Everything else about it is outstanding! In about a minute, I had all those settings set. Beautiful bright, colorful screen! Perfect! I also have an older Silicon Dust HDHomeRun dual tuner. I encountered something that's never happened before! Watched "The Rifleman" in black and white. NEVER BEFORE have I had perfect black and white! Always some kind of tinge, usually in the dark places. I mean PERFECT black and white! Then I watched some stuff on Charge! (Streaming) and I adjusted color saturation and hue and got the skin tones right. Absolutely perfect picture, no matter what I do, now!!This is not a cheap budget monitor; this is an inexpensive performance monitor that works extremely well! I completely recommend it and I think it's a super nice deal for the money!!

Looks great from every angle made with quality material specially for a $89 monitor I would recommend this to anyone looking for a budget monitor that is great for gaming and casual usage.

TLDR: If you have a 1080p 24" 144hz or slower monitor and you're looking for an upgrade, this will do nicely.I've been using an older monitor for gaming; the specs above. It was fine. I didn't know what I was missing. I don't know if I'm just that much older or if it's the newer tech, but the 27" 1440p is fantastic. Even when I drop in-game scaling down to 1080p, it just looks better: I can see details across map that I couldn't before.One problem I've had: the VESA mount. The mount I have came with screws. They worked fine on the older monitor. They are too long for this one. I need to get either spacers or shorter screws to get the monitor snug.Connecting to the PC was easy with the included DP cable. It needed some color adjusting out of the box. Of course. But HDR works, resolution and refresh rate all work great. (My poor 6700xt isn't enough to really drive the high frame rates I'd like to see, but that's a fixable hardware problem.)Connecting the Xbox series S was fine too. I needed to tinker a bit with settings to get the resolution and frame rate I wanted, (I can't get HDR to work unless the xbox switches to 4k and drops down to 60fps in game but not allowing 4k in the xbox settings fixes the problem) but when I got it dialed in games look great at 1440p 120 fps!There was a pleasant surprise here. It has KVM support, which isn't clearly stated on the page here. I thought it might because it has usb C and usb A hookups, but it does works. When I plug my phone into the usb C port (with the right cable: some are crap) Samsung Dex fires right up when I switch to the usbC input and my keyboard and mouse control the phone functions. Even sound plays through the usbC cable and volume control and media pause un-pause on my keyboard work. Switch back to the DP input for my Pc and keyboard mouse control go right back to the PC. Even the RGB on my Razer Keyboard works running it through the monitor. It switches to the default pattern when I'm on the phone input, but it goes back to my preselected pattern when I switch back to the PC input.I'm very pleased with this monitor.

This monitor is surprisingly solid for the price, I'm willing to say that it is a banger.Aside from serious backlight bleed and a relatively poor factory calibration, the monitor has outstanding performance and performs as advertised. The image is sharp AF due to the screen size to screen resolution ratio and the construction is, to put it bluntly, serviceable.TLDR: no deal breakers unless you're particularly sensible to backlight bleed or use it in a particularly dim environment. Although I believe that this issue can be overlooked given the asking price.If you want to know my calibration settings:Brightness: 63Contrast: 80Color: User - R:44, G:44, B:42

For background, KTC is the OEM for the panels in many name brand monitors(i.e Samsung, ViewSonic, etc.). I purchased two to use in a dual 24" monitor setup, coming from a single 27" 1440p. The pixel density is unfathomably high, and the color reproduction is great. Not only were they cheaper than most big brand monitors, 1440p at a 24" panel size is not just rare but nonexistent from said big brands. The 180Hz is smooth as butter and with unparalleled image quality. In an unusual fashion, the base is just a flat piece of steel and not a plastic monstrosity, which means I can keep all sorts of stuff under my monitors, including my soundbar which fits perfectly thanks to the flat base and height adjustability. I would not hesitate to purchase another if I need to put together another setup.
