Help bring our 120Hz Monitor List Back Up To Date
Over the last many months, several pages on the Blur Busters main website has fallen out of date (full time job & studies elsewhere!) -- So now I'm addressing the out-of-date pages. One of the out-of-date pages is this
List of 120Hz Monitors .... So let's make this fun -- help bring this list back up to date in a wildcat Black Friday contest!
Win a ASUS VG278H 120Hz Monitor
In the past, Blur Busters has done two monitor giveaways (
GSYNC giveaway and
XL2411T giveaway). Blur Busters is giving away another monitor again! We have a ASUS VG278H original (LightBoost) 120Hz monitor as a reward.
To enter:
- .
- Look at the List of 120Hz Monitors
.
- Reply to this thread with a monitor missing from the list!
--- Any new "Better Than 60Hz" desktop monitor model, currently for sale (or soon), qualifies. 120Hz, 144Hz, 165Hz, 240Hz, GSYNC, FreeSync, strobed, etc.
--- UPDATE: 60Hz+ qualifies provided it has special attributes: e.g. GSYNC, ultrawide and/or strobing.
--- Monitor must be available to US or Europe market, unmodified, off-the-shelf (no homebrew/custom)
--- Add link to manufacturer's page
--- Add link to Amazon too. Click Amazon and search for the monitor there, copy and paste the link.
--- Add as much specifications as you can in one compact line (resolution, gsync?, freesync?, blur reduction/strobing?, refresh rate)
note: please do not post links to other online stores in this specific particular thread; Amazon affiliate links helps keep this website up and running
.
- Multiple entries are allowed! One reply per hour.
--- Please put each monitor into a separate reply!
--- Limit 1 entry per forum member per hour (at least 60 minutes must have passed between replies) to allow all forum members an equal chance. We know some of you fast typists can post 20 monitors super quickly, so let's be fair
--- For legal simplicity, giveaway is valid in United States, Canada, Europe, United Kingdom, Ireland, New Zealand, and Australia. (I know, I hate this restriction...)
--- If you are randomly selected, you will first be asked a skill testing question (by PM & by email) before the monitor is awarded. (I know, silly law, but...)
--- There are less than 80 new monitors that needs to be added.
That means you could have a better than 1 in 80 chance of winning if you reply now!
.
- Deadline is 11:59pm GMT on Black Friday (Nov 25th, 2016)
--- A random draw (via random.org) by December 1st indexed to list of new monitors, will determine the winner
--- Best efforts will be made to get the ASUS VG278H monitor shipped into your hands before December 25th, 2016.
--- Blur Busters Forums replies displays GMT timestamps, so you'll know when you reply.
GOAL: Make
this list the Internet's most complete list of "Better Than 60Hz Monitors.
(For other suggestions or offtopic replies, please post them in Forum Suggestions ... thanks!)

Good work -- valid submissions so far.
I already knew 2, but forgot the 3rd -- so fantastic to get additional models.
Keep it coming!
You can submit multiple entries (once an hour) to improve chances of winning, a different monitor an hour. Two entries, twice the odds, three entries, three times the offs, etc.
