This is a great monitor for gaming!The reviews re: the brightness are true; I had to turn the brightness all the way down on this monitor or I'd burn my eyes out

Monitor has awful colors and extreme brightness that hurts your eyes

I had to return in almost immediately, it killed my eyes.

My eyes have adjusted, but at first, wow

The screen was too bright and i have sensitive eyes.

Even with "brightness" setting to 0, I can barely watch videos or play games for 1 hour, then it hurts my eyes.

The 144 hz refresh rate was nice, however it is too bright and I can feel that it is damaging my eyes

I was able to adjust them to be close enough, and really my eyes are getting used to it over time, so it doesn't bother me anymore
