I tried this same monitor except under Sceptre brand, and the VA smearing was horrible... playing Dragons Dogma, when I would swing a sword the black smearing was just oof... worst I ever seen. Maybe MSI tweaked it better than Sceptre did, who knows. but seeing as how places don't allow refunds on monitors anymore outside a couple places, I am not going to risk the buy to find out.

This could be it. I need to see some reviews. Hopefully this one will be a cut above other VA panels available right now in 30 inch segment.
