    My second experience with an Electriq monitor has been a good one, here's my review of the Electriq 32" 4K 144hz IPS gaming monitor - which in my opinion is a great hybrid work/gaming monitor.

    I bought a 4k 28" electric 2 years ago for a bargain £350 quid and it has the same issues with bleed, esp on the left top corner. The issue that bugs me most is that to use its claimed 144hz you have to use dual DP 1.4 as it does not have HDMI 2.1, this caused flickering so i settled for one DP cable with 120hz 4k. So I do not get to use its maximum 144hz, but here i am 2 years later and its still working fine so for the price of £350 its hard to complain and since my gpu struggles to even get as high as 144fps in games, it doesnt matter anyway - if i had a more powerful card it might bother me a hell of a lot more. My user experience was 99% the same as you have reported, i guess that when it comes to getting the layers for IPS perfect to eliminate bleed, that is exactly where Electriq is cutting corners and pumping out solid budget 4k monitors. Would I pay extra for a better screen? I would, this was a purchase based on needing a new 4k asap and not having oodles of cash handy at the time.
    Nice review, thrown you a sub.

      Hey Robbie, thanks for watching!
      I have the Ergotoron HX arm but that was due to the weight of the ultrawide before. Really any monitor arm that supports up to 32" should work. For calibrating you want to look at the Spyder calibrators.

      There's literally zero point, the video is 30fps, the monitor is 144fps. OBS records in 60fps. Any visible ghosting or issues would be either worsened by the slower frame rate and be misrepresenting the screen.
