Product identity and target users

The CRUA 24.5-inch gaming monitor delivers a 1920 x 1080 Full HD IPS panel with a 165Hz refresh rate and 1 ms response time. It covers 120% sRGB with 16.7 million colours, 300 nits brightness and a 1000:1 contrast ratio. AMD FreeSync and a built-in crosshair suit competitive FPS, racing and MOBA players, while the colour volume also serves content creators and office workers.

Installation and common pitfalls

The stand provides 120 mm height adjustment, 90° pivot, ±15° swivel and -5° to 15° tilt for ergonomic positioning. A 75 x 75 mm VESA pattern allows monitor-arm or dual-mount setups. Connectivity includes HDMI 2.0, DisplayPort 1.2, a 3.5 mm audio output and a USB charging port. DisplayPort is required to reach the full 165Hz; HDMI is limited to 144Hz, a frequent oversight during first-time hookup.

Interface limits and practical constraints

DisplayPort 1.2 caps the maximum refresh rate at 165Hz for this 1080p signal, so higher frame rates are not supported. HDMI 2.0 tops out at 144Hz, restricting console or laptop users to that ceiling. The 8-bit panel and 1000:1 contrast ratio limit HDR impact, and the 24.5-inch diagonal may feel small for users wanting expansive multi-window workflows.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the monitor is running at the full 165Hz refresh rate after setup?

Open Windows Display Settings or your GPU control panel and set the refresh rate to 165Hz. Use the on-screen display to verify the current timing. For the full 165Hz you must use the DisplayPort 1.2 cable; HDMI 2.0 is limited to 144Hz.

What cables and accessories are included, and what must I purchase separately?

The box contains the monitor, the adjustable stand, a power cable, and a DisplayPort 1.2 cable. An HDMI 2.0 cable is not supplied, so buy one separately if you plan to connect a console or a second device over HDMI.

Which connection should I choose to get the highest refresh rate this model supports?

Use the included DisplayPort 1.2 cable to reach the full 165Hz. The HDMI 2.0 port tops out at 144Hz, so reserve it for devices that lack DisplayPort output.
