This Professional Asus monitor was a love of mine for years, it was far ahead of it's time and still preferable to use thanks to it's many shortcut buttons and the ability to save multiple user settings. It was purchased for photography and graphic design, when not working I used it as a gaming monitor. The monitor represents colors accurately, and was factory calibrated. When I wanted to play a game I loaded up a custom settings that had more saturation and other tweaks.
