Sceptre monitor 240Hz Installation
Attach the base and install the display downward. To secure the installation, insert the two screws located at the base’s bottom. In order to reduce the chance of the display toppling over, we advise using a display safety strap (not supplied) if you are mounting it on a stand.
If the display is being mounted on the wall, verify that the wall’s structural integrity can support the display’s weight. Verify that the wall mount kit and the display are compatible. Go over and adhere to all of the wall mounting kit’s instructions. Put all of the screws and connectors in place firmly.
Best connection settings for Sceptre monitor 240Hz
Sceptre monitor 240Hz usually comes with these ports HDMI, USB-C or DisplayPort. Among them DisplayPort is the best and then the HDMI port performance.
Make sure you know what sort of cable you are using before you proceed with any additional setup.If it’s on your game display, go for DisplayPort instead because it has a higher bandwidth, greater spec options, and was created with monitors in mind.
Make sure your HDMI or DisplayPort cable is plugged into the graphics card slot on your computer, not the motherboard slot. If you choose the latter over the former, your processor’s integrated graphics will render frames rather than your separate graphics card, which will negatively impact performance.

We recommend to leave contrast , Sharpness and Gamma as default settings in best settings for Sceptre monitor 240Hz. Though some gamers set Gamma at 2.0-2.4 range. RGB can be set between 45-55 range.

To adjust the color of your display, right-click on it, pick AMD Radeon Software, Display, select the color depth drop-down menu, and select the highest color option.
Color temperature
In contrast to degrees Celsius (C), which are used to indicate the temperature of air and other materials, Kelvin (K) is the unit of measurement for color temperature, which is defined as the color of light and serves as the standard index for color balance. For both the sRGB standard and regular PC use, a color temperature of 6500 K is required. We advise using cool white as the optimal color temperature option for the Sceptre monitor at 240 Hz.
- 2000K – Candlelight
- 3000K – Soft white
- 3500K – Warm white
- 4200K – White
- 5000K – 6500K Daylight White

It is a good idea to enable Adaptive Sync if your display has the GSync or FreeSync option. To accomplish this, locate the ‘In Video Control’ panel by using the right mouse button on your desktop display, and ensure that the most recent driver is installed. Select the G-Sync configuration option, and then select the lowest four resolution options under the ultra dynamic range.
To enable G-Sync manually on Windows 11, right-click the desktop > Show more options > Nvidia Control Panel > Display > Set up G-Sync > Enable G-Sync, G-Sync Compatible > choose your display > Enable settings.

Mouse acceleration
Setting the mouse pointer speed is yet another crucial Sceptre display feature. Enabling Pointer Precision will cause your movements and actions when moving objects to move more slowly. This is easily disabled. Access the control panel. Select the mouse configuration by clicking. Disable pointer precision from there.
How to resolve if exact resolution is not showing?
Please try VGA if you are using HDMI to see if you can get that resolution. The HDMI on your video card is unable to handle widescreen resolutions if your VGA can.
There are situations where your video card will not read the monitor correctly, preventing you from getting the resolution you want. Your PC can be fixed by rebooting. Additionally, you can confirm that the video drivers for your video card are current.
By selecting START then RUN, you may determine what kind of video card you have. Enter “DXDIAG”. Click the DISPLAY tab when the diagnostic window appears. The software will identify your video chipset. After copying that name, use a search engine such as GoogleTM to find results.
Locate the website of your video card manufacturer and look for updated drivers. If you are unable to reach a widescreen resolution, you most likely have an outdated video card. Try updating your drivers. You will require a newer video card as an update.
