if you're a serious gamer I don't mean a gamer who just games a little bit but a gamer who games a lot and totally into his gaming environment today we're gonna be checking out something from a company called biotech now this is their brand new monitor it's the GN 32 LD 30 1.5 inch panel has all kinds of features it's a curved monitor features 18 in at our curvature just all kinds of fun facts and this monitors design well now I will say this though it does really look like it's kind of being an Acer predator clone there are a lot of things about this particular monitor I was like hey wow that looks kind of Acer predator ish but beyond that for under five hundred dollars if you're a serious gamer you wanted a monitor that you want a monitor that you can game on for hours and hours and hours without giving you fatigue this monitor features anti glare technologies who be looking at the monitor for a long time your eyes aren't gonna go ah it's so bright it's killing me but with that said though let's jump in let's check out the features and everything about this monitor because it's honestly really cool for the price tag so let's first check out the design of the modern let's do that by checking out the front first now starting up at the bottom you guys can see the feet really look a lot like an Acer predator monitor I mean they are really looking a lot like that and the design itself even is kind of like that now there's a very small bezel around the edge so you've got a very nice small bezel around the edge now on the front are all of the controls as well your on-screen display controls and they're very easy to operate you just flicker through the different buttons go through all the different things and set things up now take this in mind though there are some features that you can take advantage of in here but most of the features that you're going to be using like setting your refresh rate and all that stuff you're going to do that all in your control panel with are using Nvidia or AMD inside the control panel is where you're going to set up all that good stuff now this monitor is sixteen to nine ratio 178 degree viewing angle which means that no matter where you sit no matter where you're looking at it's going to look pretty much exactly the same and have a nice clear picture 2560 by 1440 resolution the backlit display is provided by an LED there's 218 bits of brightness and the default color temperature is 65 under K which is a little strange little bright better than daytime the contrast ratio is three thousand to one and one thing really nice about this monitor is that the response time is three milliseconds now it's not the absolute fastest in the world but it's definitely fast enough for gaming and the refresh rate is 144 Hertz now best of all about this hundred and forty four Hertz refresh rate is no matter which video card you're using whether you're using AMD or whether you're using Nvidia you can set that to 144 Hertz without a problem now this particular monitor also does support the free sync technology you get less ripping less tearing in your games if you use that this is only by AMD cards few fans who don't know NVIDIA has their own solution called G sync and it usually makes the monitor quite a bit more pricey usually about $100 more so for those people on a budget that's definitely not going to work now in the back of the monitor one thing that's cool about this monitor is that it does have lights that you can change so if you want to have an Nvidia environment you can make it all green if you want to make it Angry you make it red or other colors as well now as far as the connections go the connections there's a lot of different connections you have DVI you have HDMI you have DisplayPort and you even have an audio out part now you might be wondering why do you have an audio out part well with DisplayPort and with the HDMI it has the audio in it so you can hook up your speaker's directly to there if that's so suits you to keep your wiring without being messy now this monitor can also be vaison mounted which means it can be mounted onto a wall very easily and it does have a height adjustment feature not too much as far as turning the monitor back and forth and stuff like that but at least you do get height adjustments so there's no matter where you're sitting you can make it so it's comfortable for you to view the power plug is also located in the back and for those of you guys who want all the information this monitor takes a maximum of 60 watts when it's being used now you guys can see so far that text and everything else looks pretty nice on this monitor but how does it look in game well let's hop in game and let's check it out like I said earlier this particular monitor does feature anti-glare features so you can look at the monitor for long periods of time without getting fatigued and you guys can see that all the colors are very nice and balanced they're not too glaringly bright they're not too dull they're pretty much right in the middle which is really nice for a gaming monitor you don't want some that's really completely over saturated in color or something that's actually lagging in color and another cool feature about this particular monitor is it does have five different settings so if you want to watch TV or play games or different things you can try those different settings out and one thing I haven't really seen on too many monitors at all is the picture-in-picture feature so this way if you're watching one show you can check out something else or you could be playing your game and like watching some kind of TV program at the same time if you want to do so which is actually quite a cool feature but for gaming you guys can see this monitor just looks absolutely brilliant and that's what it's geared for now I don't know what you guys think but honestly I'm really impressed with this monitor even though it is kind of a clone of the Acer predator it does a really nice job now the only Cabot's that I will say to this monitor is looking at text and just looking at your screen you know like when you boot up in your Windows environment to me this looks a little bit dull maybe it's because the anti glare feature I don't know that particular aspect of the monitor you know it doesn't shine for me but then again you know people who are buying this monitor aren't buying it going hey I want to write a book they want to go out and blow some stuff up on screen and have some gaming fun and for that alone it works absolutely great you guys saw the in-game footage this monitor is absolutely beautiful and with that you know you get a response time of three milliseconds that's really really fast being able to set the monitor at 144 Hertz no matter which video card you're using I like that a lot the 1800 R curvature is just perfectly nice it just barely touches right at the edge of your peripheral vision now if it was a little bit bigger that might be cool they might they you know they marketed as a 32 inch model but it's really only 31.5 inch model like so I mean some people that's gonna be like hey mer they're not gonna like that very much but still it's just the way things are but at the end of the day for monitor that constantly 469 dollars you do get a lot of features in a gaming monitor and honestly I think this monitor is an editor's choice here in Tekken tomorrow because for the sub you know $500 category this monitor is definitely kicking ass like usual we'll have a link down below if you want to check out more information about this monitor or possibly buy one for yourself and get your game on peace
