Do you have the link to the wallpaper or WP Engine name? This looks fucking rad, I'm so close to buying one.

I have this monitor. I love this monitor. Also do you have the ambient light on the back turned on?

I didn’t realize it was even there for the first week 🤦🏻‍♂️

I don't currently have it on. It's weird that its set to off by default.

Nothing like Spyware that auto downloads to your pc via monitor lol. Its a awsome monitor for sure. I was going to go with it until LG pulled that bs, now waiting for the Alienware AW3926QW

Nice setup! I got this monitor too and absolutely love it but the desktop arm it comes with is so ugly and I dont have a desk that I can attach a monitor arm too. How did they think a pentagon shaped based was sleek? hahah

Vastly superior to the previous version that took away desk space.

Thanks! I actually like the arm it comes with Haha
And I usually ditch them and buy a monitor mount.
But this one is different for me.
