The 240 Hz refresh rate combined with 0.03 ms response time and ClearMR 13000 certification reduces motion blur and ghosting for fast-paced games. HDMI 2.1 support with 48 Gbps bandwidth, VRR and ALLM provides compatibility with modern consoles. Built-in USB hub and VESA mounting offer convenient connectivity and flexible installation options.

Suitable for

• Competitive and fast-paced gaming on PC and consoles
