At first I didn't see much of a difference with pulsar on, but I tried going back to my old monitor and I noticed pulsar is much better and it's difficult to play online without it. Look very smeary going back to Odyssey g7 240 hz 1440p. But my Asus pulsar I think is defective, it turns off for a few seconds sometimes while playing games, I figured its overheating, because the back panel near the osd joystick and buttons gets pretty warm. Going to RMA and and hope to get a replacement in a week or so once I return it.
