I patch my 360 through a monitor, and I swapped it out on this one while I save for the PS3. I have played several games on it, but BlazBlue is probably the best test. The colors were sharp, and I had no blurring. I haven't checked for frameskip, but since it doesn't..." Read Full Review »

"I has to agree that it is one of the cheapest LCD of the same size. Nothing fancy is expected. When I start to use it, sometimes it will give weird output on the screen.

"I purchased this primarily to extend my Visual Studio across a bigger monitor. For that, it's the bomb. Finally I don't have to fight with windows anymore.

"I use this monitor in my bedroom mostly to steam movies. It has great picture quality and so far has worked perfectly. Only bad thing is the speaker quality. The speakers sound like they are in a cave and echo a lot. As long as you don't use the on board speakers, I would recomend this monitor to …"  Read Full Review »

"I was a little nervous about buying Asus which is a relative newcomer to the LCD market. Rest assured, though, this monitor is a truly outstanding value with an excellent picture. I highly recommend a DVI or HDMI cable - the older-style VGA cable will result in some ghosting.
