The bezel is nice and thin, which adds to the elegant look.

ONCE UPON A TIME,
60Hz was the standard.
This weird hangover from NTSC TVs that needed to sync to the frequency of AC power (which in turn goes back to Nikola Tesla, Edison, and Westinghouse making arc lights) still provides a smooth viewing experience, but monitor manufacturers have realized they can go faster, and the rule of bigger numbers always being better is well and truly in play.
And while 240Hz may not be at the absolute cutting edge, it’s still plenty fast, though you’ll need a beefy GPU to push that kind of frame rate to it at 1440p.
