ASUS VG248QE 24" LED Backlit LCD Monitor

The Asus VG248QE is a 24-inch gaming monitor featuring a 144Hz refresh rate, a speedy pixel response, and a highly adjustable stand. It's a good performer but could use a few more gamer-centric features.

Would not recommend this monitor, should have bought a BenQ. I've had this monitor just over a year and since I've been using the DisplayPort, I've had nothing but problems and today with the power plugged in and no DP plugged in, the monitor wont even turn on....

  The swivel is nice and the VESA mount capability is nice.

  DisplayPort is a nightmare, apparently if you use DP you're supposed to leave the monitor on 24/7 and turn off sleep mode in Windows. 1 day you'll turn the monitor off and go to bed, then the next day you'll wake up, push the power button and nothing.

Its for gaming but i use it for work. Great resolution, highly configurable. The built in menu is a little bit confusing the first times until you get used to it. Works great in general, I would recommend it.

Picked up Monitor from In store delivery. Very quick refresh rate and response time. Can't get a better monitor for the price. It is also made with sturdy materials. Not flimsy and has a solid stand. Very happy with my purchase. Battlefield 3 was awe aspiring with this monitor.

I could say some good things about the screen because indeed it is good but now i cant.

  great refresh rate

  color, sound, warranty management

This monitor is awesome. Horizontal and vertical positioning with easy adjusted height. Built in cable management. Great picture and fast. slight tweaking of the brightness and I was ready to play. Planning on 2 more for my setup.

I've had the monitor for a little over a month now and have absolutely no qualms with it, other than needing to calibrate the colors/brightness. Wh​en you turn the monitor on for the first time, you may or may not notice the colors to be "washed out" and the screen blindingly bright.

There's something odd about the colours with this, and the viewing angle has to be perfect, you need to be slightly lower than centre. The sound sucks on it but nobody that wants a monitor for gaming uses the stock speakers.. and if you do, get a better job.

  nice looks, fast refresh

  colours kind of suck

The average refresh rate of a display is 60 Hz and here it can go up to 144 Hz.
