"2K" is 2048 × 1080 ... this monitor is QHD, plz you are a tech site can you stop help spreading wrong terms .

More... this a a 170hz monitor, so clearly for gamers... but it's a VA panel... we all know VA panels = black smearing
among other things ... i don't think recommanding a VA panel for gamers is a wise idea, even more when IPS panels are now not really pricer

Marketing of displays is annoying, keep it 1440p or QHD, I blame 4K/8K, which are well established, 2K is an abomination that should not exist, 1920 is sure close to 2k... which leads to confusion and perhaps misapplication of 2k to 1920x1080 or 1920x1200 displays

I love the resolution, I hate VA panels... I drove one for 3 months, never again.
