BenQ EX3501R ?

4960X

I have never owned a benq monitor before so I don't know how good they are but I'm looking to buy a curved gaming monitor and I came across this review of the EX3501R. It seems like a pretty decent curved monitor for gaming and it's under 1K which is what my target budget is.

My only concern is their quality. Does anybody here have any experience with benq? Are their monitors as good as Asus/Acer/LG/Samsung?

I've heard pretty good things about BenQ, but also have never owned one. They seem to be pretty good quality though.

They are pretty much among the best of the best when it comes to monitors, so get it

Honestly, I'd have gone with the similarly priced AOC if you have an Nvidia graphics card; it has GSync and is $50 cheaper.

thanks guys. I placed my order on amazon. I hope it is as good as people say it is.

And? What are your thoughts? Is it worth the money? :)
