    Pretty standard price. Has gone as low as $186 before.

      Not in this time, the average 144hz monitor price is $300-310

      I got my 144hz monitor 4 years ago for $200 im pretty sure

  • Is curved screen too much for a 24" monitor?

    • no, it's not that much curved anyway

  • this is bigger, but just wondering if 75 hz vs 144 hz is night and day even if its just normal use, no gaming.

    • no gaming? There are cheap 1080p monitors u can buy for $100 or under especially in the used market
      I got my 2nd monitor for $30

      75hz to 144hz is massive. The thing is
      if you have never seen 144hz before, u dont need 144hz especially when not for gaming
      but once you've witnessed it 1st hand, you can't go back
      but for very strict budget definitely not go for 144hz

    What are peoples thoughts on a Freesync monitor with a Geforce card (RTX 2060 specifically)?

    Just won't utilise the feature…? Is it better to wait for a G-Sync monitor deal?

    • -1

      g sync is way too expensive

    • I'm running a HP 25x with an RTX2060 and it's great, gets the full 144Hz and is smooth as butter. The HP monitor has Nvidia's blessing I'm not sure about this one.

      If you see something that lists Freesync, look up the model on here https://www.nvidia.com/en-au/geforce/products/g-sync-monitor… as it may be "G-sync Compatible"- though to utilize G-sync in that case you will need Display Port.

      It's essentially Nvidia's way of admitting that Freesync works, & utilizing it, but they have to reach minimum specs to be considered compatible.

      Even if not listed there, it MIGHT STILL be compatible, just check the manufacturer's website. https://www.viewsonic.com/au/products/lcd/VX2458-C-mhd.php

      In the overview, it states:

      "*This monitor is GeForce Driver G-Sync Enable-Ready [Disclaimer]."

      In the disclaimer:

      "Legal Disclaimer for GeForce Driver G-Sync Enable-Ready:

    Will buy for this price if its 27" and 1440p

    • +8

      Will buy for this price if it's 8k and 65".

      • +2

        Only if it include the $40 Steam credit.

        • You are already full of hot air, just add your own $40 worth of water

    Would this be the best/cheapest 144hz monitor for corona prices right now?

  • What's the opinion of this versus the AOC deal (when its back in stock): https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/542789
    Its $50 more for a IPS display, but you get $40 in Steam credit back

    • Definitely worth the extra money for the IPS panel and getting the option of a VESA mount. The bezels are smaller as well I believe.

  • hows VA for gaming? never tried playing on a VA

    • better than TN that's for sure

      • Only if you like ghosts…

    Thanks!
    ViewSonic is a good brand.
    Bought one for boy's birthday gift.

  • I bought this monitor from Umart for the same price but with cheaper delivery. My only issue is that I can't tell whether my GTX 1060 laptop will support G-sync compatibility(which this monitor apparently is https://www.viewsonic.com/au/products/lcd/VX2458-C-mhd.php). It's a metabox so finding specific model information is rather hard but it does have 2 mini DP ports.

    • no the monitor is not g sync. It would be way more expensive if it had g sync support

      • +1

        Not specifically designed for G-sync but in the last year or 2 Nvidia allowed "G-sync compatible" which is Freesync for Nvidia GPUs- no module in the monitor necessary.

        Read the link from the manufacturer:

        Google "G-sync compatible", essentially it works virtually the same as Freesync as opposed to requiring the module, though they still sell monitors with the module plainly labeled "G-sync" or "G-sync ultimate", leaving out the word compatible.

        While this monitor isn't specifically compatible, as in it hasn't been certified by Nvidia, it can still be enabled regardless & function as if it were "G-sync compatible". This reviewer also confirms that it isn't specifically g-sync compatible but it can be enabled & still works https://pokde.net/review/viewsonic-vx2458-c-mhd-24-curved-ga… You can find other evidence too on Google.

        • so is it g sync or very similar to g sync with 50% of normal g sync or like 99% of g sync??

          That's really cool. Thanks for the info

          • @Teemo4Life: "G-sync compatible" is still G-sync in the settings, just functions through protocols like Freesync rather than using a dedicated physical module like traditional G-sync. Only a somewhat recent effort by Nvidia. I haven't researched it much myself but I think most new Freesync monitors COULD work with G-sync, but only those labeled "G-sync Compatible" are guaranteed to do so, some won't but it appears this monitor runs just fine with it.

      Shipping Cost will depend on where you are.
      Mwave is a cheaper delivery for me, $12.95 via StarTrack.
