I agree but it's on sale, and I think same performance as the LG TN but better quality as VA

It's true.



Tell me how?

You said you're open for options but literally five people have recommended it

"It sucks, lg is better"

"Lg better this one bad"

Tell me how?

I actually bought both the same lg and the vg and I sent the lg back

He just doesn't want to get what everyone else has probably

even though it's the best monitor at this price point

Let's just put it this way, there's a reason, that's every time you see a pro csgo tournament, they're all using Asus or Ben q monitors. Sure it's sponsored, but they wouldn't play on them if they weren't the best screens to play on.

Colors is how. Spend 5 minutes looking online and you'll figure it out. Or just use common sense and realize "Oh shit! That ASUS panel has tech from 2012. It's 2012!" lol

Newer 144hz TN panels from BenQ have much better colors and aren't nearly as washed out and downright awful as the VG248QE. Some 8-bit 144hz panels even get kinda close to IPS panels in color reproduction. Not to mention the strobing from the VG248QE that'll make you think you have a tumor with the headaches they can cause. lol Viewing angles still suck, but ya... VG248QE is outdated. There are better options in 2016.

Just like any other monitor
Asus should be 150 now considering how long its been around

This isn't the thread, I'm asking between 2 options listed.
I'm open for options if I'm proven wrong is what I said earlier in this thread, you are here to hopefully help me not the other way around lol.

For the price of that old, subpar quality monitor, there's better options now in 2016, my research has led me to the LG for the $250 price point.
