Item: Xceed 24" FHD 144Hz Monitor
Age: 3.5 Years
Price: R900
Payment Method Accepted: Cash / EFT
Warranty: None
Warranty Holder: N/A
Packaging: None
Condition: Used, but good
Location: Brooklyn Pretoria (can meet in Jhb at Gautrain Stations)
Reason: Upgraded to 1440p 170Hz IPS
Shipping: No
Collection: Preferred
Link: N/A (Check Carbonite for Threads on Xceed Monitors)
The monitor's out of the box colours are not great and require some basic calibration. I recommend trying the following:
R: 45
G: 44
B: 44
Black Level: 25 to 35
These monitors can technically do 144Hz refresh rate, but you will notice that colour quality detoriates at refresh rates > 75Hz. It's possibly a 6-bit TN panel trying to emulate 8-bit colour. I would definitely not use this for workloads that require colour accuracy, even if you use a colourimeter I reckon youd only be able to achieve <= 75% sRGB accuracy. The monitor uses a 12V 4A (~ 48W) DC power brick which I will include. I will also attach and include the original stand. Highly recommend using a VESA certified Displayport 1.4 cable (you can buy Club3D branded cables locally). Freesync also works, I only have AMD graphics cards so can't say if Gsync works for sure.
In the interest of transparency, I've taken some photos of the monitor and posted it on Imgur.
