Pros: Worked great on both HDMI and VGA. Cons: After about 8 months, I have had nothing but problems with it. from Newegg.com I have used many different monitors over a couple of decades using PC computers. My first one, was very crude by today's standards. from Amazon.com Pros: Cheap. It looks good at its one resolution Cons: There are no drivers and thus this is no good for my usage because changing resolution between applications and games is standard practice. Other Thoughts: How could a company release a product with only one resolution. I have some ASUS products I like but this is definitely not one of them. from Newegg.com Very large screen area and high resolution for the price. Contrast ratio is pretty awful, so I wouldn't suggest it for games (at least not any games that have shadows). from Amazon.com I have used many different monitors over a couple of decades using PC computers. My first one, was very crude by today's standards. from Amazon.com This display is amazing, the speakers are not so great, but i use a surround sound to make up for it from Amazon.com Very large screen area and high resolution for the price. Contrast ratio is pretty awful, so I wouldn't suggest it for games (at least not any games that have shadows). Very few people seem to wind up w/ dead/stuck pixels, but Asus does not appear to have a zero tolerance dead-pixel policy for this monitor. So anyone who does get one w/ dead/stuck pixels (like me) is pretty much out of luck as far as a manufacturer's warranty goes. from Amazon.com (Intro)I have a two year old and as such, I can't play some of the more violent video game console titles that I used to before he was born . Either my son is awake and so I can't have him see me fight aliens and world war II enemies or he is asleep and so the sound of the game is too loud that it will wake up while he is taking his nap. So I figured I'll pick up a small monitor to use with my Sony Playstation 3 just for games and to watch movies/tv shows from my PC as a 2nd monitor in the office. Since my primary reason for picking up this monitor is to play Playstation 3 games, the monitor had to be 1080p (1920x1080 native resolution) to avoid seeing black bars on the top and bottom of the monitor when playing 16:9 aspect ratio games or movies. from Amazon.com Back light bleeds all around the edges! Blu-Ray movies look like standard DVD quality! Other Thoughts: Newegg was nice enough to refund me back the money so i could purchase a more expensive monitor! NewEgg you ROCK!! from Newegg.com For some reason the volume button becomes stuck. All by itself, without anyone or anything touching it the volume will go to 100 and the menu wont go away. i e-mailed tech support about the issue, and their response was to hold down the screen mode button for 3 seconds to reset the monitor. The first time I did this it worked and the monitor was fine for about a week, but now the problem has resurfaced and it will not go away. from Newegg.com
