The first button enables an on-screen crosshair for help when aiming in FPS games. The second button brings up a number of styles to choose from.

While the third button either triggers Nvidia ULMB, if G-Sync is disabled, it’s the forth button that leads you to the main options screen.

 This screen defaults to the Picture menu with a number of settings to adjust the on-screen brightness and contrast and enabled SmartResponse.

While in the same menu, there are five gamma presets.

In the Color menu there are six colour temperature presets, ranging from 5000K to 11500K, with a default value of 6500K. You can also set the 272G to sRGB mode or create a user-defined setting.

There is a wide range of languages, but unfortunately, nothing for people who speak Klingon.

The OSD Settings menu has the usual options to move the OSD around on the screen, adjust its position or timeout.

The OSD Setup screen rounds off a solid but fairly simple menu system. In here you can toggle the Nvidia ULMB setting, and adjust its Pulse Width (disabled in G-Sync mode) as well as reset the settings back to their default values.
