ASUS TUF Gaming 24” 1080P Monitor (VG248Q1B) - Full HD, 165Hz, Extreme Low Motion Blur, 0.5ms, FreeSync Premium, Eye Care, DisplayPort, HDMI, Shadow Boost, VESA Wall Mountable, Tilt Adjustable

I considered buying this monitor for a long time and I have to say that I am not disappointed. Firstly, to all those people out there who say that the human eye cant even detect refresh rates beyond 60fps or what not, I will say, 100%, with no doubt, hook me up to a lie detector, give me a blinded test that you are WRONG. The difference between a standard 60 vs the 144 which I use on this is extremely obvious. It is actually a little strange at first because it feels a little psychedelic like everything on the screen just got really, well, smooth! Whether or not this is somethign that matter to you is another matter. At this point, I prefer it, but I didnt have a problem at 60. Game wise, its response time and all that is nice, but I never played many twitch games so it never really mattered to me. The brightness is good. I work in a pretty dark environment, so the brightness doesnt matter to me as much, but compared to any other monitor Ive ever had, I would say this is just as good if not better than most. As far as 3D is concerned, I bought this initially because I thought 3D gaming...Awesome!!. So I bought the NVIDIA 3Dvision 2 kit and all that jazz and two days later, returned it all. Just wasnt as good as a wanted and there werent enough instantly compatible games to really make it worth it. I have the full 3D setup from my projector (Epson 5030U which I also reviewed-excellent projector) and truthfully, I decided that if I want to play 3D games, that big screen vs close screen didnt really change much for me. Size wise, I always would say to go bigger but realistically the monitor is perfect for me to work and mess around on. I sit about 2-2.5 feet away from my monitor and its size is just right. Also, I can see from A to AC on an excel spreadsheet in full screen standard view and that is plenty for the majority of my work. Thats a weird way to describe the size, but if it is relevant to you, then I did a good job :-) Overall, I was between this and a BenQ model that was similar and Im not thinking that I should have gone with the other one. I have nothing negative to say about the similar BenQ, I never used it. I dont know if I made the right choice, but Im not thinking about it anymore, so I feel like that means that I am pretty happy. I recommend.

Bought this to upgrade my monitors to 144hz turns out that you need to use the DVI ports to get this and not the HDMI. Its just advertised as a 144hz product description should mention that only the DVI ports get 144hz

Up Date! Three Monitor system. Gaming imagery is beyond belief! Trine 3D video game on all three is mind blowing and Tom Clancys Rainbow Six Siege is life like. I first tried the ICC Profile in Color Management to fix the color imbalance with white being lighter or darker on monitors but that didnt work. I even tried the Lightboost Hack but the resolution of 5760 by 1080 thats needed to combined all three monitors is not compatible with the strobelight hack. All LCD monitors are going to have some kind of color imbalance within our peripheral vision but IPS monitors are not. So, Ive no longer notice the white imbalance and while watching movies I try to sit directly in front of the middle monitor to try and stop peripheral vision imbalance. There are no color imbalance in 3D or gaming and sometimes even the movies Ive watched I was using Cyberlink player to watch video files stretched out to all three monitors, but Cyberlink took ripped files and made them look like cam copies, so I used DivX Player that has the option to customize video resolution into 5760 by 1080 and it plays video files stretched out on all three monitors beautifully. Ive also got 3D showing through all three monitors using Deep Space 3D Screensaver resolution of 5760 by 1080 full screen. Cyberlink is my 3D player but it will not stretch to all monitors -- a 3D player for PC will have to be invented that can stretch videos to all monitors in full screen mode

Since Amazon lumps multiple models together on one review list, and search results eliminate the section which identifies which model is being reviewed: This is for the ASUS VG248QE 24 Full HD 1920x1080 144Hz 1ms HDMI Gaming Monitor. It also has Display Port (DP) and DVI-D Dual Link (although I thought it is DVI-I Dual Link, but I dont want to unhook the cable to verify, so Ill go with the listing details). Last purchased Feb 2, 2014, Style: 24 FHD 1ms 144Hz Height Adjustable | Pattern Name: Gaming Monitor After owning this monitor for nearly NINE YEARS, I am still very pleased by it. Overall, there is a lot to like, and not much to dislike about this monitor. I primarily use it for gaming, working, and other typical computer use. The image is crisp, the colors are vivid, the blacks are deep, and can be made even deeper using ASCR, there is barely any backlight bleeding, ZERO dead pixels (no green, black, or bright pixels - nothing at all wrong with the image), fast 1ms response time, high 144hz refresh rate - there really is very much to like. (Other than something I did - my own fault - to slightly damage the surface with a sharp object one time about 7 years ago) the monitor is visually and cosmetically flawless. I only have two very small complaints after almost a decade of constant use: 1. The frame on the top is just barely starting to lift off the top in a short portion of the middle, and occasionally allows a bit of the backlight to shine through - but even this issue, I think, is going away after I have worked on pushing the frame back in place and it seems to no longer have the issue anymore. It might also have to do with temperature differences due to changing seasons resulting in slight expanding or contracting of the material. Really not a big deal, and almost not worth mentioning, but I want to give an honest, fair, and complete review. 2. The height adjustment has recently (within the last year or so - i.e. after about 8 years of use) started to lose its ability to hold the monitor at its position. However, this comes with three pertinent caveats: - First, my wife and daughter very often use my computer when I am away and move the monitor down, and then I have to move it back up when I get back, so it experiences a lot of wear and tear. - Second, I have my very heavy Logitech gaming headset conveniently hanging on the back of the monitor (because it has such a perfectly shaped section which, although probably not designed for this, perfectly holds my headset in place) which significantly adds to the overall weight of the monitor hanging on the height-adjustment mechanism. - Third, even with the problem existing, by moving the monitor to the desired position and holding it in place for a few moments, it will typically hold its position, even with the heavy headset hanging on the back. So, thats it. No other cons. I havent read many of the other reviews, but I did see something about color issues: this is fairly easily addressable via monitor settings, and if needed, Nvidia Control Center settings (or the equivalent AMD settings). Also, if you have any issues with Ghosting, I suggest adjusting your Trace Free setting to either 60 or 80. I advise not using 100, as that seems to overcorrect the issue and introduce inverse ghosting, if I recall correctly from previous testing. Setting it too low (i.e. 40 or below) doesnt seem to correct it enough, but it could work for some people. The only reason I am shopping around for another monitor at this point is because my wifes monitor (different brand/model) died and so I am giving her this monitor. Otherwise, I would plan to just keep using this monitor for years to come. I highly recommend buying this monitor.

Lets address a few things. This monitor delivers on speed, hands down. If you play online multiplayer games like Battlefield 4, you will have an advantage over those who have a regular 60hz monitor. Some critics claim that the human eye can not see frames produced at that high of a rate so 60hz is fine. They dont know what they are talking about. FrankieOnPC on youtube explains this very well, and a higher refresh rate makes all the difference. Next, out of the box color issues. This is a huge deal for a lot of people. When you fire this monitor up the factory color settings are terrible. It looks like youre looking at a picture under water. However, minor adjustments are the key to making this monitor look dynamite. If you Google the model number people have included their settings and an ICC color profile that you can download to make the colors even more vibrant. But, let me tell you what my settings are for reference: Brightness: 60 Contrast: 80 Saturation: 50 Then I set ASUSs Splendid mode to Theater. This gives the deepest blues, reds, and blacks. It provides strong division on the grey scales, and makes the yellows and lighter greens (which are very bland out of the box) pop. After that I did install an ICC profile found on Reddit and various other sites. This was the icing on the cake. Performance wise, its very hard to notice the difference between 1ms and 5ms input lag. But the 144hz refresh rate is very noticeable. Everything is much smoother. Screen tearing is gone. And if you want to run Vsync, you can. But chances are you will have gotten rid of tearing without having to enable Vsync. I wish I bought this monitor first for my gaming rig. I had no idea how much of a difference a higher refresh rate made. Its night and day. I will never go back to 60hz.

ASUS VG248QE 24 Full HD 1920x1080 144Hz 1ms... What do we all want to know about the ASUS VG248QE 144HZ monitor.For a while i was curious and started my research about monitors and the refresh rate and what the benefits were and how much it would affect my budget along with do i have a decent graphics card and how that would affect my gaming experience and myself coming from a ips monitor was it going to be worth it and could i take the leap for a 144HZ monitor and like i have read beforeand let me tell you,if you are ready for a TN monitor at 144HZ look no further this ASUS VG248QE 24 is absolutely beautiful,and i mean you could be watching one of your music videos and kinda get the feeling that you could just reach into the monitor or put your hand right under the front of the this monitor and scoop whatever you want and grab it right out into the palm of your hand/s,and this is no joke.I really dont see how some people complain about the color because after a couple of days i found my settings and not the settings you will see posted here on some other reviews to work for this monitor.So if you are truly ready for a TN monitor with over 60HZ look no further because i spent over a year reading post after post,site after site and i will never go back to a IPS monitor again hands down.So anyone reading this post congratulations and kudos for taking the leap of pixels.

Sometimes the sounds gone, sometimes it doesnt, but when the sound can finally connect, the sound got smaller than when it first got here. phew

I like it. For the price that I got it at, I really, really like it. Ive read on a lot of reviews that people dont like the finish and how it attracts dust, I personally dont mind. When I got it I thought, wow people complain so much about such a small detail. But if it matters that much to you then, I dont know then, maybe a different monitor to avoid getting annoyed by the dust it collects? It honestly doesnt collect dust that much if you dust weekly (and my pc set up is in my bedroom so a blanket + carpet flooring by comparison) For the colors that people complain about, I just went into the monitor settings and adjusted the screen color and contrast to the way I find comfortable for my eyes. I did find that the default setting when you first get it did bother my eyes a little bit. If you work with photo shop or other applications and need precise color display then I wouldnt recommend this monitor, it was specifically for gaming for me. I dont have any complaints about the monitor, other than its a bit too big for my desk set up, but I have another monitor so thats my problem. My first 144 Hz monitor, the change in experience is pretty great. Changed my life forever. Im a college student so for this upgrade I felt it was a good deal (I had wanted a pure black monitor to match the pc color scheme and the other ones in the market didnt fall in that criteria) A month into having this monitor, thats pretty much all I have to say I think; will update if I have problems later.

This is my review after almost 3 years, purchased this on march/april(?) 2016 and have these as a triple monitor setup since that day. I should note that when I originally purchased the 3, one of them had a poor lit panel which I returned for a replacement within a week. 3 years later I have not had a single problem with these monitors- display wise. The ergonomic base/adjusting was a little bit of an issue when setting the 3 monitors side by side in a little bit of an arc formation. The issue which is ridiculous to remedy is that because of all of the adjustment options in all directions, its almost impossible to get all monitors perfectly even but Ive learned to live with it over time because unless you go all out and use a level to get things perfectly horizontal and plumb, they will be small inconsistencies. This however is the nature of these super adjustable bases. The refresh rate of 144hz as well as 1ms response time was actually a blessing in disguise I did not realize until I purchased a separate 28 75hz 5ms monitor recently which I almost instantly regret. If you are not looking for a 4k panel, then 144hz and at most 1ms response time is almost required for gaming. Even single player games, rotating the camera around is so fluid and clean, on the other 75hz panel it hurts my eyes because of the blur/disfiguration from moving the camera. Now the other debate is whether to go 24 or 27/28. The picture on the 24 is going to be a little more dense and compact for lack of a better term because of the smaller screen. The larger screen may have slightly pixelate the image which I noticed on my recently purchased viotek 27 75hz monitor. I know its not the same quality and screen as this but for still images, the difference is noticable especially after getting used to 24 panels. If you dont know what I am talking about go look at a 55 or larger tv on 1080p resolution at a electronics store. The image gets stetched out the larger you go. All things aside, I cant find myself replacing these monitors anytime soon unless 2 or more die at the same time. The quality for its time has been great and still holds up today. I should probably also mention that pc speakers are almost always terrible when compared to an actual external sound speaker system so that should never be a factor in deciding on a monitor. Nowadays alot of people want the low bezel monitors (main reason why I purchased that 27 for another room) but In my experience those have been plauged with more problems (asus included) than panels such as this. While I would like smaller bezels nowadays, its not worth replacing this just for a trend which will either change or be further improved later on. Not sure if already mentioned but no dead pixels either which was a surprise since I thought after a year I was going to get a couple. Good job on these asus lol.

For those of you that wanted a 144 Hz/1ms delay monitor for a good price, this monitor does the job. Please keep in mind that out of the box it does not come with a display port/DVI-dual link cable, so you will need to buy those as well if you want to reach 144 refresh rate. As other reviews said the monitor does have washed out colors, I used the settings below (courtesy of Reddit) which helped it a lot. Settings: -Theater mode -Contrast = 83 -Saturation = 42 -Color temp = user mode with all three set to 83 -Skin tone = natural -Sharpness = 50 -Trace Free = 40 -ASCR = On Getting 144 Hz on Windows 10: Also note the monitor will default to 60 Hz out of the box, even with a new cable. To change this on Windows 10 (with creators update) go to display settings, click display adapter properties, and then click the monitor tab and select the refresh rate you want. (if you have more than 1 monitor make sure to have the right one selected before trying to change the settings). Overall, for the price, its a good monitor, arrived quickly and in good condition. Will probably buy a second one to replace my other monitor, Overwatch looks great on it.
