I thought the XG270QC was a VA panel monitor?

It's an MVA panel. The curved screen and the contrast ratio are clues.

Found a lot of complaints vs a tiny number of positive comments about this model on Reddit, only 2 on Amazon and one was extremely detailed and pointed out MAJOR flaws. I would have ordered this but Viewsonic denied there is even such a thing as an input lag rating "due to many factors" despite all of the reviews for their other monitors that go into input lag specifics, so I bought the G7 Odyssey instead. Then today I got a message on Reddit that this monitor has a rating of 1.2 input lag. Viewsonic could have had a sale if they didn't pretend it's something that can't be measured.

Digging the non-RGB aesthetics on front, but that curve is a no go for me and price doesn't seem to shabby, but in current conditions it'll skyrocket over $500 in my area.
