Reddit reviews ASUS 23-inch Full HD Wide-Screen Gaming Monitor [VX238H] 1080p, 1ms Rapid Response Time, Dual HDMI, Built in Speakers, Low Blue Light, Flicker Free, ASUS EyeCare

I play on Xbox and bought this monitor a few months back. Huge improvement. It's 1080p and has a 1ms response time which is what you want. Price isn't too bad either

Other specs:
-PC itself is a pre-built(Don't kill me. I got a great deal) MSI Aegis 3
-2x Asus monitors Asus MG248Q and Asus VX238H
-240GB SSD
-Headset is a Logitech G430 that I've swapped the earpads with these
-Razer Deathadder Elite
-Keyboard is MSI Interceptor 4200 (came with the PC, planning on upgrading)

No worries! I saw that and then saw the brand logo. I've never seen them before, are they pretty decent?

If you had to choose between these two, this one or this one, which would you go for?

Highly recommend

I chose this one due to the fact it has two HDMI ports and you specified you wanted a monitor for both a console and a PC. That way you don't have to keep unplugging and plugging in HDMI cords. It's also relatively cheap and a good size and brand. This will do you nicely.

i think you would be very happy with this http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ANKMNXO/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=

Yeah sure. I've done some thorough research recently. Prices jump up and down daily though. I'll try to keep the options under $120 with rebates and whatnot.

Is this a good one?

ASUS VX238-H is what I currently have. They retail for about $150.

Great monitors for gaming partially due to the 1ms response time. 23" screen as well so you'll have bit more desktop space to play with.

Highly recommend it: https://www.amazon.com/23-inch-Wide-Screen-VX238H-Response-Speakers/dp/B00ANKMNXO

Here's another one on sale. Picked this one up yesterday

TN 27" at 1080p (i.e. too big for this resolution imo) and not flicker free?? No thank you

I reccomend this

also would get something like this monitor or get a 1ms 144 hertz it will be more money

also would get a beefier powersuply atleast a 700 or 750 gold for a pice of mind.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ANKMNXO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

This is the monitor that I've got. I'll have to see about tinkering with the refresh rate if possible.

This looks good. You can do cheaper but this comes highly rated and has a nice 1ms response time which is nice.

I got https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ANKMNXO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

This is the one that I saw, though the default 23" is still $140. Downsizing to the 21.5" is the one that only cost $120.

Then again, I'm pretty new to the PC market, so I'm not entirely sure if this is a good monitor, per se, but I'm sure I wouldn't be too picky when it comes to my first setup.

this is what i console game on. I love it. and 1ms GTG :)
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ANKMNXO/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 $179


edit just seen it is $10 cheeper at new egg http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236305
and there is a $20 mir at both places

Does anybody know the input lag for this monitor? I ordered this one today, but I might cancel that and order this one if it has the same input lag (10 ms). Honestly, I don't know much about monitors so I don't know which would be the better of the two.

How's this one?

I got an ASUS 24 for like $130. First weekend with it I dropped 4 nukes in a 6 game span

*Edit: It's 23 inches. Link https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ANKMNXO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

your opinion, do you think this monitor here is decent?

looking to get something for a new comp im building that can also work as a small tv for a switch

If you are doing VR then just buy a cheap $125 monitor. I bought this one.

It's not IPS according to this table: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ANKMNXO?ie=UTF8&at=&force-full-site=1&ref_=aw_bottom_links

*edit- realized you said 24" sorry

here is a good gaming monitor http://www.amazon.com/VX238H-23-Inch-Screen-LED-lit-Monitor/dp/B00ANKMNXO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1368835649&sr=8-1&keywords=ASUS+VX238H

piggybacking on OPs question what would be an accurate buffer for solo offline play with this monitor https://www.amazon.com/23-inch-Wide-Screen-VX238H-Response-Speakers/dp/B00ANKMNXO ? I've tried most of the buffers from 0 to 6 but none of them seem accurate. I think the ones that feel the closest are 3 and 4, but still timings are different specially wavedash it just doesn't feel as smooth.

He doesn't all that in a PSU, dude. Even if he's going to add another GPU. Also for the price of those monitors he can get 1ms response time in this monitor

I don't know much about monitors, but I just ordered the Asus VX238H.

It's 23", 1080p, 1ms refresh rate. I ordered it mainly because it has 2 HDMI ports, which I needed.

Is this a good option? Asus

This is what I have for my PC It works great and I love it

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ANKMNXO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_ZNwJzbCVSZTD8

White version of the monitor as well.

VX238h, 1ms response time and pretty cheap also i think you can overclock the monitor to go to ~90hz. Also its in sale rn on amazon. (https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-VX238H-1920x1080-Gaming-Monitor/dp/B00ANKMNXO)

If you don't mind refurbished (from the manufacturer itself), I'd suggest going with this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/BenQ-ZOWIE-24-RL2455-Console-eSports-Gaming-Monitor-Refurbished-/152303206776?hash=item2375fa8178:g:ENAAAOSwfVpYpOW0

It's the best bang for your buck if you're planning on playing games that require fast reaction times (fighting games, FPS, 2D platformers, etc.).

EDIT: Would also suggest this Asus, which is relatively inexpensive but is the successor to the monitor that players used at previous EVO tournaments: https://www.amazon.com/23-inch-Wide-Screen-VX238H-Response-Speakers/dp/B00ANKMNXO/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1491799546&sr=1-1&keywords=asus+1ms

For $100, good buy?

Then I'm not sure a monitor would give you the ROI you might be thinking you would get. $100 budget would be tight. This is probably as close as you can get and there are a couple twitchy users who play on this one :

I noticed the one you linked only has a 1m:1 contrast and mine is 80 mil, is that relevant at all?

Ah gotcha! One last question... Y'all were talking about the vg, I'm looking at the vx for the speakers and it's also $70 cheaper on Amazon. It's 60hz vs 75 on the vg, but same input lag. Any reason I wouldn't want to go with the vx model?

Thanks again

If you’re using anything below an xbox one x, 4k is not supported. I dont care what anyone says, xbox has said so. 1080p is the highest you’ll get. Now, with that being said you want to go for 1080p. But now you need to look in a different area...ms. I’d say hz but xbox doesn’t actually output anything stronger than 60hz no mtter what. However they support 1ms response time. So i recommend this monitor ~~~> https://www.amazon.com/23-inch-Wide-Screen-VX238H-Response-Speakers/dp/B00ANKMNXO

Yes just the tower.

With this you wont need a 4k monitor, just 1080p so depends on how much you want to spend and how big you want. [I had this one for a while and loved it.] (https://www.amazon.com/23-inch-Wide-Screen-VX238H-Response-Speakers/dp/B00ANKMNXO/ref=nav_ya_signin?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1522551594&sr=1-8&keywords=1080p+monitor&)

As for a mouse, i would go to best buy or frys and put your hand on one and see which one feels the best. But I really like the [Razer Mamba] (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B013HSWF40/ref=twister_B071WFY14D?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1).

Just FYI, the motherboard i picked is a mATX which is micro ATX so its smaller and i picked a case that supports mATX. Its more expensive than ATX by around $25 so you can get a regular ATX motherboard cheaper but you will need larger case than the one i picked. I actually ended up using [this case.] (https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Carbide-Airflow-MicroATX-Mini-ITX/dp/B00LA6Y5XQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1522552372&sr=8-2&keywords=corsair+240)

Do you think this monitor is good for me? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ANKMNXO/?tag=pcpapi-20

Assuming you're happy with 1080p (not 1440p) and 60Hz (not 144), here's a good one for $150. You can step down to the 21.5" version for $135 each.

Here's a 23 inch 1080p 1ms monitor. https://www.amazon.com/23-inch-Wide-Screen-VX238H-Response-Speakers/dp/B00ANKMNXO

I just recently bought the Asus 24 inch 1ms 75Hz (VG245H) and I love it. Just checked and it goes for 179.99 usd on amazon.

I also see an Asus 23 inch (VX238H) for 139.99 usd which doesn’t look to bad.
