ASUS VG248QG 24" G-SYNC Gaming Monitor 165Hz 1080p 0.5ms Eye Care with DP HDMI DVI,Black

The ASUS VG248QG is a solid 24" monitor that's perfect for gamers and multitaskers alike. The 165Hz refresh rate is buttery-smooth, and the 0.5ms response time makes fast-paced gameplay incredibly responsive. It’s truly plug-and-play, which makes it an awesome choice for anyone setting up their first gaming rig or dual-use workstation.Build quality feels sturdy, and the widescreen display with G-SYNC compatibility performs great out of the box. Picture clarity is excellent for a 1080p monitor in this price range.That said, color accuracy can be hit or miss depending on your expectations. Some users love the vibrant display, but others may find the colors slightly off and the brightness a bit harsh, especially in dim environments. If color precision is critical (e.g., for photo editing), you might need to tweak the settings or consider calibration.Overall, this monitor delivers fantastic performance and value for the price — especially if your main focus is smooth, responsive gameplay.

I was honestly surprised by how much quality came from a $120 monitor. This is definitely a buy and I would buy more if I had a bigger desk.The ASUS VG248QG 24" G-SYNC Gaming Monitor is a fantastic choice for gamers seeking a competitive edge. With its 165Hz refresh rate and 0.5ms response time, this monitor delivers incredibly smooth and responsive gameplay, making it ideal for fast-paced games where every millisecond counts.One of the standout features is the G-SYNC compatibility, which ensures that screen tearing and stuttering are minimized, providing a seamless and immersive gaming experience. The Full HD resolution (1920x1080) on a 24-inch screen strikes a good balance between clarity and performance, ensuring that games look sharp without putting too much strain on your graphics card.The monitor's ergonomic design is another plus, offering tilt, swivel, pivot, and height adjustments to find the perfect viewing angle. The build quality feels robust and durable, which is typical of ASUS products. Additionally, the monitor includes several gaming-centric features like ASUS GamePlus and GameVisual, which enhance the gaming experience through customizable crosshairs, timers, and color settings.On the downside, the monitor's color accuracy and viewing angles are not as impressive as those of higher-end IPS panels, but this is a common trade-off for the speed and responsiveness of a TN panel. Also, while the built-in speakers are a convenient addition, they lack the depth and clarity that dedicated external speakers or headphones can provide.Overall, the ASUS VG248QG offers excellent performance for its price point, making it a solid investment for gamers looking to upgrade their setup. Its combination of high refresh rate, low response time, and G-SYNC compatibility makes it a standout option in the crowded market of gaming monitors.

The media could not be loaded. This monitor is probably the top 3 best budget monitors out there. This monitor has a very good refresh rate, very good picture quality, very good settings included in it, and it take about 2 minutes or under to set up, they also made the design of the monitor look very sleek and nice. The only negative thing i have to say about it is that the speakers are not the best but a 20 dollar headphone fixes it all. This monitor also has a blue light filter which is very nice and comfortable to use. I would recommend this to Gamers.

I want to start this review with the fact that this product is a TN panel, so if amazing color means a lot to you, then take my review with a grain of salt, because I am a FPS snob. I hate motion blur and ghosting, so color accuracy doesn't mean as much to me.To keep it simple, this monitor has basically no ghosting/motion blur whatsoever set at 144hz. The monitor is capable of 165hz, but most of the stuff I play barely runs above 144fps anyway, so I just run it 144hz. Just a personal preference.The color on this panel isn't terrible, but as mentioned, it is a TN type panel. I will say the color out of the box looks terrible, but after some fiddling with settings, it looks pretty good. I have an IPS of this same brand and model and you can tell a difference between how the colors pop, but it's not so extreme that this panel looks bad.This monitor does have the option to add overlays such as FPS counter, crosshairs, or a timer. However, it seems you can only use one at a time. Kind of lame, but in most practical situation you're not going to need to use more than one at a time, and most likely you won't need to use any of them, so it's a nice feature for a handful of games. Keep in mind this could be operator error, but I'm pretty sure you can only use one function at a time.Overall it is a decent monitor, but what sells it for me is the refresh rate and fast response times allowing this monitor to have virtually zero ghosting/motion blur.
