I get that it's uber good for fps, but is it just as good for rpgs, mmrpgs, etc... are the colors good, not washed out??

This monitor is not good for anything. Bad colors, resolution is too low for the size, and way over-priced. Move along, nothing to see here.

If you did read my review, the colors are good AFTER you calibrate the monitor properly with proper equipment. Ofcourse the older TN panel can not match the IPS panels in colors, but the IPS panels are all currently (the affordable ones anyway) 60Hz. My previous monitor was an IPS monitor and after calibrating this properly i prefer this BenQ, but i think mostly because its bigger. So when you get your monitor, the colors are off, after calibration, theyre great. However do some research, maybe you dont really need a 120Hz panel and there might be something else out there for you, but im more than happy with mine. Mine: Gamut coverage 97.7% sRBG Gamut volume 115.2% sRBG The results are great.

It pretty much addapts to your pcs standar refresh time .... you wont have any issues with it playing the videos at a slower fps than your pc...its an identical match to what your computers refresh is :-) ...i Have both the vga and the HD versions and there wonderful ..never had issues and its been about a year

I play video games.. so far so good with this. Of course you cant expect the highest setting for high-spec game such as Assassin's Creed : Unity, as it just provide about 20 fps. I think its a good for a budget pc setup :)

I think they are saying its good for gaming. I remember reading that somewhere.

They seem consistent to me. I use it for CAD work and my second monitor is used mostly for menus. I did quick check by dragging a picture from one monitor to the other and I couldn't see any difference. I down loaded the software from NVidia and am able to have different color setting for each monitor, but have not needed to do so.

Honestly, I can say that it isn't spectacular for gaming. I tried to play the new Far Cry on it and it was lagging so bad that I couldn't play it. It can play games like Skyrim and Fallout. But then again those games aren't that new.

In my opinion the colors are very good out of the box, it does need some tweaking if you're looking for 100% color accuracy but it is more than capable. Personally when I got mine it was close enough that I haven't touched it since I'm not doing anything requiring perfect colors. I will say that I did a bunch of research on this monitor before I bought it and some people have said that their backlight can be somewhat uneven which can impact the colors. I don't seem to have that problem but be warned that some units may have the issue.

It's a pretty good monitor and I have been using this for quite a while now without issues. I don't see a reason of why you wouldn't be able to use this for PC Gaming. The only issue would be that the monitor is glossy and so the glass is reflective. Other than that I think it pretty good.

Ben Q RL serious are the BEST for FPS games such as COD and Battlefield. These are are the montiors they use at most MLG tournys for those games. I love running all my games on it then any other monitor. As a pro gamer its a monitor i recommend.

Not sure. Probably yes, but most likely decent means different things to me than it does to you. It seems to me that better options are available for gaming at this price point. I'm not a gamer, only a guess. YMMV

I've used it only with driving games on a PS3 w steering wheel & foot pedals, and it was very responsive, prolly due to high refresh rate combined with its fancy processor. Looks really good on axis, but suffers from side viewing.

I haven't tested any game, but graphics are awesome, intel driver looks good and it has good memory, for what I need I think I chose the best option. Thank you so much!!

Gaming: Not so much, there is far too much blurring when things move, even when you just turn slowly in a game :( However the screen is great for RTS-games and such, where the image isn't moving as much.

I don't game but my friend does (who's got a similar plasma) and he thinks it's terrific. I believe motion speed is one of the prerequisites for good gaming and typically plasma's have better motion speed than their LED counterparts. Just my 2 cents.

Yes, wonderful at all three. I do all of the above on it. It handles fast 3D graphics with no blur, beautiful colors, no bleed over, sharp crisp. No faded looking colors like you get with a back-lit LED.

The color on the VX2370 is not as bright and vibrant as my VX2770. No banding on my particular 2370 monitor. It has served me well for several years now. In it's price range it's a very good monitor. GPU's well have some effect on color.

Our son has it but he's currently playing the beta of battlefield 4. Says it looks great and runs well. It rocks so far.Hope this is some help.
