For $250 it's pretty good I think, though I do think 32" for a 1080p isn't ideal, but with anti-aliasing cranked up in games it will probably be fine.

 

The monitor I'm using is an Acer one (this here https://acer.co/36YkDIV ) it being 31.5 inches, and 2560x1440p, it being a 165hz freesync premium monitor. The image quality is so damn good in my opinion. I've been using 2560x1440p for several years now, and find it so much more ideal for me, since it's visually better than 1080p but not as demanding as 4k.

When I got this monitor I had no clue about VA pixels so this had 240hz so I brought it 

So I already got this monitor and I wanted you guys to tell me is it good 

 

Sceptre price: $499.99 on their website

Amazon; $329 

I got it for 249 on prime day

1080p on 32in is a no go for me, unless its a pretty large distance, overall text would be horrible for me. 

 

From what ive seen, this monitor barely sees any benefit from the 240hz over say 144hz, due to the response time of the VA panel. So overall, its pretty mediocre, decent at best.

at that price and resolution you are paying for the curve and curve only, so if the curve is your only priority i guess it's ok.

 

personally the monitor doesn't even do srgb correctly, has a 69ppi (minimum 90 imho)

 

for under 300usd i'd just buy a AOC 24G2 for 144hz or some ARGB 60hz monitor used and call it.

Not what i'd do with the money but as long as you're happy with it yourself there's nothing wrong with your decision really.

If someone did not use reason to reach their conclusion in the first place, you cannot use reason to convince them otherwise.

A monitor made by some no-name company in 2021 with these specs:

280cd/m brightness

DP 1.2

FHD at 31.5"

no ergonomic features

 

For $329 / $249 on discount.

I guess for that discount, a 32inch monitor could be sort of worth it. I once got an AOC of 32 inch but QHD for about the same price. And it got fried in just one month after the warranty expired.

It really only makes sense if you absolutely need a cheap monitor of 32 inch. Otherwise, hard pass.

32", 1080p? Honestly? For me, no, its terrible. 

 

Remember, "good" is subjective and you asked...

I have a 21.5 1080p monitor next to this one and they both look the same to me l

I think 1080p does not look bad if you never used. 1440p monitor before and 1080p on 32 does not look bad if you sit 2 to 3 feet away
