XG240R replaces XG2402 but it's the same monitor, they just added a fancy light and will cost around 280€.

VX2458-C-mhd is curved, VA panel, 144hz, 1ms GtG and costs 200€. What's the catch here??!!
VA panel is not good for gaming? Huge input lag?

I already decided i wanted the XG2402/XG240R but the VX is alot cheaper and curved!!
Someone have any idea?

I tested a VX2458-C-mhd already! Is a great monitor for the price. The contrast is very good and the response time was surprisingly acceptable as long as you keep a bright image. On dark colours it is bad ofc, wich is VA problem. Also this monitor has no VESA and no height adjustement. It usually costs 180€ here in Europe, wich makes it one of the best budget 144hz models.

XG2402 on the other hand is the god tier of 144hz panels for competitive gaming. it is TN tho, so low contrast. But is the fastest monitor I ever used (excluding 240hz).

Cheers

This type of monitors (curved) must be great for games like warcfraft and racing, just not first person shooters.
In racing games is there blur? Or it just happens moving a mouse quickly?
If i could i would get the xg2402 for FPS and a curved for the rest.

but the vx2458-mhd has better timings than the xg2402. I wonder about motion blur on it. Haven't seen pics of reports of it.
