Is this good for a computer monitor as well as gaming (like on Xbox One)

Yes. I don't even use this tv for cable or anything like that. I've hooked up my PS3, XBOX360, Wii, and PC. It works and looks great.

For a computer monitor I would lean away from. For gaming consoles they would work well. I use fire tv for gaming, pretty good on a ps3 as well. Computers would have resolution issues if you are nitpicking for high quality images, but some games would not be overly affected like voxel based games or lower quality visual games. I would personally not try Skyrim on it, Oblivion on the other hand would be fine.

I am using it as a monitor. I had the previous generation model used as the same. Neither is gaming, so I can't respond to that, but as a big screen monitor with built-in speakers, it works great.

Read my review about this monitor for PC & console gaming.http://www.amazon.com/review/R3X6P1G2C28FH/ref=cm_cr_pr_perm?ie=UTF8&ASIN;=B004G8QO8OBasically I would avoid this monitor for gaming and instead get a monitor that let's you edit the image color saturation, includes speakers with a headphone jack to avoid buying RCA audio adapters for console gaming, a matte anti-glare screen to prevent light reflections appearing on the screen, and has a 5ms or less response time for less ghosting (or image trailing) effect.This monitor has none of the things I listed and for the price that this monitor costs you're better off buying something else that's cheaper. Look at the Asus or AOC monitors, they're great for gaming.

I use it to connect my xbox 360 with a monitor so it should work. make sure that you need a VGA cable and not a DVI cable they are slightly different shapes but look very similar.

yes, this monitor is great, i play all games on it in 1080 at max settings. great response time too

Yeah. I use it exclusively for gaming. Works pretty good. What do I play? BF3, 4, Hawken, CoDs, Crysis 2, 3 and some UT3. For something that's 20 bucks, it aint bad. If it breaks, I'll just go buy another one. I use a Logitech EX110 for work purposes. What's my game stuff? Intel i7 3770 cpu, Asus P8z77-V LK motherboard, WD 2.5 Velociraptor HDD, XFX HD7950 gpu, G.Skill 16gb 19200 ram, Corsair RM750 psu, Corsair H100i liquid cooler.

Don't use it for gaming. I notice color ghosting when I'm just moving windows around on screen so I think it will look pretty bad if you try some high fps gaming on it. This monitor was built for superb color accuracy (and it does it really well) and that comes at the expense of things like response time. Asus makes other monitors that are specifically for gaming, I suggest you go with one of those.

I use it to play Call of Duty on Xbox and it works great. You might want to look for a little lower latency, though. There's an Acer 23" IPS 5ms for less $ than this one. Looks just like it though. Also, my audio out port stopped working. I had been plugging a headset into it every time I played. It didn't hold up.

Sorry but I don't believe the 360, or even the Xbox 1, can reach 144hz. I also think HDMI cords max out at 60. Could be wrong. It comes with a DVI cable which can reach 144. Still a great buy for the respine time.

Sorry I do not use it for gaming, but have no complaints in using it for other purposes. It is working great.

An Xbox does not run games at 140 FPS, meaning it won't be able to use 144 Hz AT ALL. Games run at like 30-50 FPS, so if your buying this monitor for just your Xbox, it would be a bad idea.

Yes! It makes a great monitor, I have my computer hooked up via HDMI cable. Thats all you'll need.

I don't thing it will work for gaming it's only 60 Hz refresh rate. It say 120 effective but you need at least 120 refresh for no lag. I bought it for my camper just to watch movies.

Yes it's good for PC gamers. I got this for my son who wanted it to use for his x box one and I asked him your question and he said it's good for PC gamers.

Well I run Microsoft flight simulators on this at high settings...no lag or anything. So use that as a guide. Its also rated well for the high graphics games like cod and bf.

If you use an HDMI cable to connect the monitor and the console, the monitor has a standard audio out port. You can connect your gaming headset to that.

I use the BenQ specifically for PC gaming. It works great. I'm very happy with the purchase. I have a 3 monitor setup with the BenQ in the middle and a couple cheaper monitors for the outside. I can definitely tell the different in quality.
