However, it is also VESA mount compatible, giving you nearly limitless mounting options. The standard connectivity options are all available on this particular monitor, supporting a single DisplayPort and dual HDMI inputs. Additionally, the monitor sports inputs for up to four USB-A peripherals as well as a pair of low powered integral speakers. AMD Freesync is also present, giving you similar benefits to V-sync by cutting down on screen tearing without impacting your system's performance.
