Asus VN247H-P vs Asus VG248QE Which should I go with?!

monjanger · October 25, 2014

Hey all, I have an upcoming build for the future, and currently I have 3 Asus VN247H-P monitors. These monitors are ideal for multiple screens because the Bezzel is so thin, but, I think my new build will go way over 60hz even if it's overclock to 75hz it will still probaly get around 90-100fps on 1080P. It has a 1MS Response time and has Dual Hdmi Ports. Now the other monitor has only a single HDMI port and has a thick Bezzel, but it has 144HZ.

Which should I go with?!

Not sure what you're asking. Are you comparing your current triple monitor setup overclocked with a single VG248QE, or 3 vs 3?

If you FPS game at all, the Asus VG248QE is one of the best monitors ever with almost no effective motion blur once the 2d Lightboost hack is done. It's super simple and easy, and only has to be re-done if you unplug your monitor, which let's be honest, who does? If you do any kind of fast moving gaming, it's absolutely huge.

If you don't care about FPS, then other monitor choices become just fine. However, with that kind of horsepower, make sure you either go for really high resolutions, or really high FPS. If you don't, you're just wasting all that horsepower.
