Viewsonic VX2025WM

Zitat

Being in the mid range of the Viewsonic series of monitors, there was nothing mid range about the display. Graphics, video, text, and games were truly remarkable. What made this monitor mid range was the lack of some useful features such as a headphone jack, height adjustable stand or additional video inputs.

Furthermore, many newer LCD monitors are now hitting 5ms (as in the case of the VX2025WM’s bigger brother, the VX2035WM) and some are even advertised in the 2ms refresh rates. As we all know, the faster the response time, the faster the screen can refresh an image. If an LCD’s response time is too slow, the image on your monitor will not update quickly enough with the information being sent from your video card, and thus, you’ll get ghosting or blurring of your image. This is critical for hardcore gamers that play first person shooter games as a blurred image could mean that split second where you can get fragged.

That’s not to say that the 8ms of this monitor is slow, but we must consider that many LCD manufacturers (including our VX2025WM) report the LCD’s gray-to-gray response time (pixel cycling between gray states) vs. black-to-white-black response time (pixel cycling from black-to-white and then black again). Manufacturers will typically report the fastest possible response time, so expect our monitor to have a response time greater than 8ms for black-white transitions. Buyers must shop with caution when comparing response times as they all may not be equal. With all that said, the monitor still produced a very good picture, with hardly any ghosting or blurring during intense high speed movies scenes.
