It is a good monitor. But it wont have 1ms response time. It is an IPS panel and IPS panels lowest response time is 5ms. If you want a 1ms response time, then you will need to go with a TN panel. But I prefer IPS panels. Their colors are better and they have better viewing angles.

The only thing that monitor is missing is adaptive sync (gsync or freesync). Gsync is very expensive, so it may be out of your price range. If you have an AMD card, freesync is much cheaper, so you might want to consider going with one that supports free sync. But Nvidia cards only work with gsync, and AMD cards only work with freesycn. So it depends on your card for which you need.

Oops, I looked a little closer and it looks like this monitor is a 60hz panel. That is why it is so cheap. Don't get it.

No, its a 60hz, the resolution is nice, but you want something more like 144 for the price.
