Features
This product is an In-Plane Switching (IPS) monitor that produces rich on-screen colors and creates better
viewing angles. This IPS monitor is paired with a 165 Hz refresh rate for a faster response time of 1 ms,
complete with good picture quality.
NOTE: All specications represented are typical and provided by HP’s component manufacturers. Actual
performance might vary either higher or lower. The native response time is 5 ms, 1 ms is the overdrive
response time.
This product supports FreeSync™, an Adaptive-Sync technology, and is compatible with G-SYNC™. It is
