I was looking for a monitor under a thousand reais with a higher frequency than my 4K TV for gaming. I currently use a 60" 60 hertz LG, this monitor reaches 144 hertz on the displayport cable, and 120 hertz on HDMI. It makes a big difference for shooting games like Fortnite, Warzone, Apex, etc. I hope everything arrives okay!

Pros

• Rotatable screen, cool
• Growing stand
• Competitive price
• Quality brand
• High contrast
• Tiltable to your height
• Steel base
• Almost borderless
• Can be used as a second screen in the future in case I want to buy another monitor, can be placed vertically

Cons

• Many people prefer IPS over the VA panel, so it does not have a very high brightness rate to see enemies in the dark, could be bad for those who like to play during the day.
