WHAT IT BRINGS

The useful part.

Offers a listed 170 Hz DisplayPort mode at 2560 × 1440, with a 100 × 100 mm VESA mounting pattern.

Manufacturer source
BEFORE YOU CHOOSE

The checks that matter.

The 170 Hz QHD maximum is a DisplayPort overclock; HDMI is limited to 144 Hz. The response claim is MPRT, not a measured input-lag result.
