How do I adjust the stand?

Is this monitor suitable for professional graphic design?

While it offers good color reproduction for gaming, its color gamut may not be sufficient for professional color-critical design work compared to higher-end professional monitors.

Troubleshooting

Monitor will not power on

Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the monitor and a working power outlet. Check if the power button is depressed.

No signal detected

Verify that the input cable (HDMI or DisplayPort) is securely connected to both the monitor and the source device. Ensure the correct input source is selected on the monitor's menu.

Screen tearing or stuttering

Enable VESA Adaptive-Sync in the monitor's OSD menu and ensure it is also enabled in your graphics card's control panel. Make sure your GPU supports the feature.

Image is blurry or has ghosting

Adjust the monitor's response time setting in the OSD menu. Try a setting like 'Normal' or 'Fast'. Ensure the game's frame rate is not excessively high or low for the display's capabilities.

Colors appear washed out

Adjust the color settings (brightness, contrast, gamma, color temperature) in the monitor's OSD menu. Ensure the color settings in your operating system and graphics card control panel are also configured correctly.
