Best Value for 80,000,000:1 Contrast Ratio! WOW!

Breathtaking graphics, the color clarity is phenominal. Asus delivers yet again great quality and a rugged feeling laptop. Every inch of this was well designed, and I actually almost enjoy looking that the design on the back of the screen as I do the front.Thicker bezels on these monitors thought, which is OK if you're not running them in Nvidia Surround mode. (I still bought too.)There is one Con everyone should be aware of with these screens: this is a beautiful model, with amazing picture, but you CANNOT rotate the screens. This is sad because I was hoping to rotate one 90degrees and be able to read with it, but overall it's the only flaw. (No DisplayPorts, Sorry! Just VGA and HDMI.)Ver más

Great deal!!

Like the two other folks here, I bought this monitor without very many reviews. If you want more reviews, look at the 23" version, the vx238h. Almost the same specs and it has lots of reviews. A couple of very minor differences. I agree with the above reviews. This monitor is exceptional. I play on the Xbox One. I play call of duty ghosts and there is no display lag. The colors out if the box seem to work well for me but there are plenty of adjustments for those who want to tweak them. I did use my own speakers as I like a little more bass in my sound but certainly the built in speakers are adequate.I was looking hard at the benq rl2455hm which is the choice of MLG. But this monitor seemed a better deal since it matches the benq's 1ms response time and has better color and contrast ratio.You can't go wrong with this Asus monitor. Great choice at a great price!!Ver más

Great screens. Looks pretty cool. Could have been better.

I have 2 of these panels.+Overall, the screen is great!+The color on these is really good, and 100% brightness is overkill. Blacks on these panels are not bad either. Overall, ignore manufacturer claims of color on monitors. Those numbers are made up. Wait 'til you see it in person.+The 1ms response time is fine, but this panel is still limited to a 60hz refresh rate, which is a bit of a bummer for serious PC gaming.+ Settings and eye-care modes are pretty robust.- Buttons on the bottom of the monitor are inconvenient. You need to twist your arm just to press them.-The onboard speakers on these are garbage. They shouldn't even need an extra audio input. HDMI input should do full stereo+.-The back of the panel is strangely bulged, probably to accomodate for the lame stand and awful speakers :(- No VESA mounting, and the included desktop stands are really wobbly.- Not meant to be mounted overhead or to a wall, so why even put the buttons on the bottom?I ended up mounting these with the VIVO Adapter VESA Mount Kit to get rid of those awful stands. These monitors are good, but I should have gotten 120+ hz monitors with VESA mounts.Ver más

Top of the line budget monitor

UPDATE: After around two months, the only complaint I have are the speakers. I can play shooters and leaving the volume down is fine, but if I stream Instant Video or Netflix, I have to crank it up to around 80 in order for things to be understood. So for gaming it's not an issue, but if you intend on streaming shows or movies, I would definitely look at getting some speakers. In terms of the rest of the monitor, the review I wrote below hasn't changed. And I paid $220 (with tax) for this monitor and it's currently listed at $180 which is a steal.After being convinced by my peers that gaming on a monitor was the way to go, I began my search for the best budget gaming monitor on the market. I looked at Benq and Asus because Major League Gaming (MLG) players play on them. I spent hours looking at a very limited number of reviews for monitors until I came upon this one. There were no reviews are far as the eye could see on the internet, but I had a feeling it was going to be THE monitor and I certainly was right. I'm reviewing this monitor based on videogames played on the PlayStation 4.The VX248H features key gaming monitor features such as 1 ms response time, low input lag (less than 10 ms it appears), and vibrant colors. The wicked fast response time along with VividPixel prohibit any kind of ghosting or tracers. Images and fast paced gameplay don't skip a beat on any game.Gamers generally say that TN panel monitors, like this one, don't provide as good of colors as the much more expensive monitor - IPS. I can't compare colors between the two, but for a matte-finished monitor, after some tweaking under "Game mode" it certainly is hard to complain about the vivid colors. It is especially noticeable on oranges, yellows, and greens. In certain games such as Battlefield 4 and Need for Speed Rivals, there are some times where blacks appear more like grays, but it is more than acceptable. There are six different modes which can be configured differently and saved so they can easily be changed depending on what kind of viewing you are doing. And yes, the configuration out of the box will not suffice. For some reason, every review I have read on monitors has an author who complains that they had to change settings in order to gain the best image quality.The sound quality is great in terms of clarity, but it's not going to blow you away in terms of punishing bass and things of that sort. It's really not an issue though because there is a 3.5 mm cable included for the input on the back of the panel to upgrade to better "bassier" speakers. Those of you who don't want to pay to upgrade sound, don't worry because it will satisfy regardless.Finally, the design of this monitor is exceptional. It's sleek, ultra-thin, and simple. The bezel and stand are a semi-glossy black. There are a number of buttons on the bottom of the panel which are used for power, sound, and configuration. They are so hidden, I didn't even know how to turn the thing on when I got it. The inputs are nicely placed on the back of the monitor. Two HDMI cables, 1 VGA, 1 3.5 mm sound cable, a power cable, and something else (can't remember) can be plugged in on the back.The VX248H 24-inch monitor is the best budget monitor on the market today. It's only two months old and it certainly applies to every aspect of the monitor. It is sleek, great in image quality, and the top gaming monitor for a budget to start 2014.

One of the best monitors you'll have at a great price.

This monitor is amazing for what it cost me I think it should have been priced higher the quality is great and the picture matches that of a 2000 dollar flat screen TV, The ports are also very nice I have my consoles hooked up to it too, The only thing bad about the monitor is the speakers they are not really good and break in static a lot that is why I bought some amazon basic ac powered speakers with it and it hooks up great. One thing I should mention is that if you have problems with reading small text you will have a lot of trouble with this monitor, lastly the size of this monitor is huge! its 24x24 even though that may sound small its not, when the monitor came it was bigger than my desk and I put it on the entertainment center. Overall this was a great purchase :)Ver más

Best monitor that I ever purchased

Best monitor that I ever purchased! I purchased this monitor because I needed a new one. I had a 20-inch monitor and it wasn't cutting it for me. I wanted to experience HD because my computer had an HDMI port on the back and I never used it before. I also wanted something that would serve as a gaming monitor.This monitor has two HDMI ports on the back. Most monitors that I saw online either had one HDMI port or none at all. For the price and reviews, this was the best one in my opinion. I know that there is a 23-inch, a 22-inch, and a 20-inch version of this exact monitor. I felt that the 24-inch monitor best fit my needs. I was planning to use it for gaming and for everyday use. This monitor is very easy to set up. All you have to do is screw the black ring stand to the monitor. There is a screw on the bottom of the stand with a little handle. You can either use your hands to twist the screw or use a screwdriver. If you are planning on using this monitor for gaming, everyday use, or for watching blue-ray movies, I would highly recommend purchasing this monitor. It won't disappoint.Ver más
