120hz tn monitor list out of date? [no -- not anymore]

Post by Bish8 » 03 Mar 2014, 16:00

Found a list of 120hz monitors and most seem to be out of stock. Apparently the Samsung are the creme de la creme and my only options are benq or asus

ASUS VG248QE and BENQ XL2411T only ones being in my price range.

Their specs are pretty much the same in regards to pixel pitch, cdm and contract ratio. Only the Benq has lower power consumption and i found it cheaper.

But are they the only options i currently have?

This is a very complete and extensive 120Hz monitors list that includes all discontinued monitors, so it's pretty up to date. But, yes, the list will be reorganized in the near future, to highlight current-model monitors better, since 120Hz monitors are being replaced pretty rapidly nowadays. (e.g. the BENQ Z-series). There is also a separate List of GSYNC Monitors which includes upcoming monitors.

Suggestions of new layouts are welcome!

I have rearranged the list to separate the current/discontinued LightBoost monitors. Check it out again!
This time, it now means the whole first section is all non-discontinued monitors, and the rest of the list beyond (below) are older monitors (including Samsung, which are discontinued).

Yes, ASUS and BENQ are currently the two biggest sellers of 120Hz monitors at the moment. Then followed by the overclockable monitors (e.g. Korean 1440p) and the high end niche brands such as EIZO. It will gradually change over time when more GSYNC monitors are released, including by Viewsonic, ACER, AOC, etc.
