Hi guys, I looked around, but I wasn't able to find any reviews on Acer's 24" P241WAD monitor. Does anybody have this monitor? I'm thinking of picking this monitor up this weekend on a fairly good deal, but I wanted to make sure it was a decent monitor for gaming first. Thanks.
 
Bump.

I went ahead and got the monitor. It's nice and large, but it seems like the color is a little off out of the box. Does anybody have any recommendations on settings or the best and easiest way to calibrate the monitor?

Thanks.
 
Check the Temperature setting in the internal OSD. Basically you want to set a temperature that's aesthetically pleasing to you. Unless you want to calibrate for true color representation. That is another thread entirely.

I don't think there is an actual temperature setting that I can access via the OSD. They have preset profiles and then a USER setting which allows me to adjust RGB levels. Other then that, I only have access to contrast and brightness levels. According to Catalyst Control Center, the monitor is at 6500k and I can actually adjust it at this driver level. Would that be the same as adjusting via an OSD, if there was one?
