    Is the Samsung LU28E590DS good for gaming?
    adam
    over 1 year ago
    The Samsung LU28E590DS wants to change minds with it's 1ms response time and Freesync compatibility. Even with the somewhat difficult stand and low viewing angles, the Samsung LU28E590DS is a strong choice for those who want to game or get serious in their work.
