Hello everyone,

Just bought this beauty and i''m here to get the best settings in OSD.

At the moment i have a GTX980 wich doesn't work with Gsync but until new GTX 30XX family arrive it will have to work.


I'm an FPS player with CS:GO and BF5 as my daily games.

Please can someone tell me best settings in the OSD ?

Thank you. 🙂

Its surprising that noone has reviewed this monitor properly yet but here are my tips:
Keep overdrive at step 3, that is default. Any higher and you will get overshoots, like motion trails on edges.
Remember to set overclocking to 170Hz. Use gamevisual Racing for anything since it is pre-calibrated. For FPS games you can use FPS profile for boost in colors but i think its too much. Racing is really nice.
Enable G-Sync Compatible and dont use ELMB-Sync as it seem to make motion clarity even worse by using it.
