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

Love this monitor. Bought 2 for dual screens. Really clear pic.

Game Monitor If you get it for the normal price. This monitor is excellent. Pros: 3 year Warranty 144hz + Tracefree Technology Adjustable Stand 144hz capable with DVI-D or Display Cable. Monitor Digital Vibrance (Saturation) Excellent clarity Cons: Colors when using 144hz. Theres no nice way to say, the colors suck by default. You can tweak it but it will take sometime to find exactly what you like. The nice thing though is depending on the profile you select, you can up digital vibrance on the monitor it self. It makes console games look amazing. PS4, Wii U, and Xb1 looks great, But remember, Consoles only use 60hz or lower depending on the game. If you google this monitor you will find a reddit with a bunch of different colors and profiles to try. Motion Sickness: I found this monitor was making me slightly motion sick. Im not use to see 144 FPS in pc games so it was messing with me a little. I expect this will go away shortly as it was slowly getting better over time while using it last night. Final Thoughts: Personally, I love this monitor. I bought it mainly for the 144hz for CS:GO and some other games on PC. The colors arent nearly as close to my 27 LED Viewsonic monitor but I knew that going into it. The monitor is great for competative gaming and for console gaming as well. Even though its only 24, if your playing a game at a desk like I am, it works perfect. If your looking for a monitor to do graphic design or you care a lot about colors, get an IPS screen. This is a TN panel after all. its meant for gaming, and thats pretty much it. Ive used BenQ monitors in the past and they are very nice, but honestly, this monitor is just as good if not better for some. BenQ is like the Apple brand of monitors. Its a big name and everyone loves them but they are also elistest with it as well. Go for whats cheaper and you will not be sorry.

I have had this monitor for just about 2 weeks now, I gotta say, when you go 144hz, you will not wanna go back to anything else. I was on the fence with the purchase of this monitor, as I have read both good and bad things about. I did not get it with any dead pixels, nor do I have any to date, nor have I seen any sign of bleeding. I spent a good few months looking for a good gaming monitor, and I looked at well over a 100, I kept coming back to this one. I will be buying another one. I have been playing FO4 in ultra mode (All settings in ultra), Witcher 3 in ultra, doom in ultra, and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided in ultra, and have had no blurring or screen tears of any kinds. I would suggest this monitor to anyone, not quit sure, and tired of that endless searching for a good gaming monitor. The monitor has ports for 1x HDMI, 1x Dual-link DVI-D and, 1x DisplayPort. My Asus monitor came with 1x Dual-link DVI-D cable, power cord, and driver disk. I would 100% recommend this Gaming Monitor to family, friend, worst enemy, and anyone looking for a good gaming monitor at a great price. P.S. 144hz only runs on Dual-link DVI-D and DisplayPort. Again, my monitor came with 1x Dual-link DVI-D cable, and you can pick up a gold plated DisplayPort cable on Amazon, for less than $12 USD. P.S.S. To get the Nvidia Vision 2 Kit to work proper with all 3D movies, make sure you are running the Dual-link DVI-D cable. I have had problems running this with 3D movies with the Displayport cable, with my CyberLink DvD software and Nvidia Vision kit.

Pretty good monitor for 1080p gaming. Would recommend if you are using with headset or external speakers, the internal speakers are quite low audibly.

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.

This monitor is marked as a Gaming Monitor in the market. The gaming features which attract my attention are 144hz and short response time. I put this VG248QE sit next to my 2-yrs old Dell U3011. As you know, Dell U3011 is a great monitor, but it may not be a typical gaming monitor. As a part-time gamer, I want to have a monitor for my PC games. The 144hz and short response time did play their roles in game BF3 during the test. In fact, comparing to the performance in U3011 (2560x1600 ultra), I did like the FPS performance (action part) in VG248QE (1920x1080 ultra) better. However, I felt like I missed something. Even though the action of BF3 performed better in VG248QE than in U3011, I didnt like it. I didnt like this gaming monitor. Why? Because the color didnt look right at all! Yes, the factory color setting in VG248QE is horrible. I dont know whether ASUS make this way on purpose, maybe they think gamers are free to adjust it by themselves. I personally think as such a big company, ASUS should be easy to do the color calibration for their monitors. But apparently, ASUS dont. Then I did some search online. As a result, I came out four color profiles. Two came from pcmonitor.info, one from user in Newegg, and last one from the other forum (sorry, forget the name). One of the profiles that came from pcmonitor.info suggested the ICC profile file (.icm), I downloaded it too. There was one more .icm color profile file recommended by the user in Newegg, I also downloaded it. For U3011, its color profile has been done once it is plugged in to PC. I dont which one does it, Win7 or Nvidia Driver. Then I started my testing. Since two monitor sit next to each other, I could easily do the comparison. ... ... Let me skip the testing process and jump to the result. As a result, I was disappointed with this gaming monitor, seriously, I couldnt make myself like it due to the color. One of these four color profiles is described to have the most accurate colors, but my eyes dont feel it. One of the .icm file comes from ICC standard, but my eyes dont like it neither. Maybe my eyes are wrong or maybe I dont feel the colors correctly. What I can tell is the color performance in U3011 is way way better than VG248QE. I think the monitor size doesnt matter with the display of colors. Thus these two high-end monitors should have similar color performance. However, whichever color profile was applied, my eyes always liked the display in U3011 better, much better. The display in VG248QE was either too cold, too warm, too dark, or too bright. The mointor just couldnt make it balanced in WOW, BF3, and Skyrim, or even in browsers and PDFss. Now for PS3. Both of two monitors have HDMI, so I connected them with my PS3. I played Dark Soul and blu-ray 007. Only the profile (Google the pcmointor.info, the profile they use for testing) was acceptable for my eyes. But this profile displayed too warm and dark when I played Dark Soul and Uncharted 2. The most serious thing is ... ... A week later, On the screen, the area is about 1 inch above the monitor bottom edge, two dead pixels appeared. As a gamer, high HZ and short response time are important. But I personally will choose color over them. I mean color must be comfortable first, then I care about rate and response time. I definitely will NOT choose a monitor whose color display I am not comfortable with, even it has higher rate and shorter response time. In conclusion, if you were the person like me, this monitor might NOT fit for you. Otherwise, you can think about this unit, but I dont recommend. ========== Other thoughts ============ The resolution! I am not sure about other gamers. I like playing PC games, so I always pickup some good video cards, like GTX 590 (I am using now). I mean it may be common to have own a high-end video card among the gamers. Then the resolution with current gaming monitors is too low. All the gaming monitors have high rate and short response time, but low resolution (1920x1080). I personally think high-end video card should apply for high resolution monitor (2560x1440 27, 2560x1600 30). Even though you may not get the features which those gaming monitors declare, high-resolution monitor will definitely give you a more visually-comfortable game world. ========== Few Last words ============ The color calibration or management is the basic for a monitor. The gaming monitor should be a type of high-end monitor. But if the monitor cannot make the color look right, it is even NOT a good monitor.

Ok guys so I got this monitor exclusively for my PS4, with that said I know I will not be able to take advantage of the 144Hz and the other features that the monitor has. The one thing you can take full advantage is the 1ms response time and the Game Plus Function with different recitals, I will be honest I was very skeptical about this feature. Well I unboxed it and put it together, took about 5 mins and fired this baby up. I adjusted the color, etc,etc, simple to do. Well I am a BF4 player so I went into that game and fixed the settings, I went into the training range to try out the game plus thing, at first I was ok so this is knida of cool. I played around with it for a bit just to get my eyes adjusted to it. Well I went into my first TDM match,using the SAR, well I went 39 and 5, went into another game 45 and 10, third game 35 and 6!!! I kept on playing for about 2 hours and every time I would end a match with over 25 kills and les then 10 deaths?? To be VERY honest this game feature helps out so much that at times I felt like I was cheating. I also did notice that I felt that I had an advantage towards other player with response time, I dont know its weird but you WILL notice it! Now before you guys start saying that this is bs, I also have a gaming rig with a ASUS VG278H which I also used with my ps4. The only reason I got this monitor is because with my VG278H I just felt that my reaction time was slow on my part, not on the monitor, this was an issue with me. I am an older guy so my eyes are not what they use to be plus I where glasses, And I also play at my desk. The ASUS VG278H is an awesome monitor too dont get me wrong, but now this smaller one I can focus my eyes a lot better for me. Bottom line this monitor is beautiful and yes you will see people say you will not benefit with this monitor if you are using it for a console. Its your money do what you like with it, but from a PS4 fan this monitor works awesome. The one tip I will give is the TRACE FREE fuction, set that to 60 or 80, not a 100 you will see a bit of screen tearing or like the ps4 is trying to catch up to the monitor, other than that GET THIS MONITOR!!!!

Had one of these for 7 years, second one for 4 now. Buy it already, its the best monitor ever.

Update!... Avoid! The 1 button toggle on this not only makes customizing and using the menu a complete and total pain. That single button also breaks really easy.. Whoever thought of a 1 button toggle switch should be fired.. I figure this. If a monitor has a menu. there should be a button for that, then and up and down to navigate it. and to select the setting you want. There should be a button for that.... Oh and if it has more than 1 display port.. There should be a button for each.. How much did Asus save? 0.20-0.30c... I have terrible vision to begin with so dont exactly listen to me... My main complaint is that 1 button toggle. Annoying!!!! I mean, if theres 2 hdmi ports for 2 different computers/set ups.. Why cant we have 2 buttons 1 button for hdmi 1, and another button for hdmi 2... would make it way easier than having to learn and navigate a 1 button toggle menu.. I have 2 pcs. One for my daily driver, 1 for video editing and other loads.. I like to set me editing computer and switch back to the daily driver, then randomly check in on the progress.. I should have a button to just switch between without having to navigate a menu Come on asus. buttons cost what 1/10th of a penny... As for the display.. Its ok. Like I said. my eyes suck anyways.. So everything I look at sucks.. Check other reviews if you want display and picture quality.. Im not the person to really say anything about that

This monitor is a HUGE step up from my previous monitor, which was a generic Samsung 1440x900 60Hz 19 monitor, so I might not be able to give a great review. Basically, this monitor is pretty awesome. Asus is a great monitor maker (along with almost anything else tech related it seems) and they knew what they were doing. 24 inches is a perfect size (Im a college student living in a dorm and the monitor barely fits underneath the shelf above the desk), 1080p (which in my opinion is all you need right now since you would need to buy a much more expensive graphics card to power a higher resolution monitor) and 144Hz is just plain overkill. The stand is great with pivot, tilt, etc and all the ports are there. Why only four stars? Two things: the speakers on this monitor are horrendous. Yes, I know, they are monitor speakers, but for a gaming grade monitor a part of me wishes that they could have at least put some better front facing speakers somehow. The second thing is now that there is G-Sync and FreeSync, its hard to recommend such a high refresh rate monitor without either of these technologies. G-Sync was even developed with this specific monitor! Now G-Sync I can understand why they dont include, since the module itself is expensive (thanks Nvidia), but FreeSync is suppose to cost almost next to nothing for panel manufacturers, so I would personally recommend you wait until those monitors come out or pick a G-Sync monitor (ex ASUS Swift line) if you plan on sticking with Nvidia for a long time.
