ViewSonic introduced a new 23.8-inch gaming monitor, the VX24G26J-4K with a 3840 x 2160 (4K) resolution. The monitor uses a Fast IPS panel with a native 160 Hz refresh rate, 1 ms GtG, 1,000:1 contrast ratio, and up to 400 nits brightness. The combination of UHD resolution with a pixel density of 185 PPI is something not often found on typical 24-inch 1080p or 1440p displays. The panel is treated with ViewSonic's Nano Obsidian Screen technology that provides a matte, anti-reflective finish. The monitor supports Adaptive-Sync alongside AMD FreeSync and NVIDIA G-Sync compatibility. It also sports HDR10, VESA DisplayHDR 400 certification, 8-bit color depth, 100% sRGB and 95% DCI-P3/Adobe RGB color gamuts coverage.
The ViewSonic VX24G26J-4K gaming monitor has a three-sided narrow-bezel design with the stand offering height, tilt, swivel and pivot adjustments. Additional features include Flicker-Free backlighting, Low Blue Light mode, Black Stabilization, and on-screen crosshair overlays. On the connectivity side, it has one DisplayPort 1.4 input, two HDMI 2.1 ports, a 3.5 mm audio jack and a built-in power supply. The monitor has so far appeared only in the Chinese market, ViewSonic not disclosing yet its pricing or global availability.

Been waiting on 24” 4k for awhile now. Make a 3840x2560 24”-25” and I’ll take two.
The following is an image i took of my first IPS monitor back in the day after moving from TN to IPS.
Samsung 1680x1050 TN to Dell 1920x1080 IPS. Both 60Hz.
Left is obviously IPS. Right is TN. In case anyone is wondering the game running on both screens was Far Cry (released 2004 by Crytek).
Now do it in motion... IPS will look like vaseline smeared across the screen. And I had a "gaming" IPS monitor with 144 Hz. Or was it 240 Hz already, I can't remember because it was so shit. Before it I had ASUS 144Hz TN monitor and it was AMAZING. Even color shift was so small it didn't bother me at all but the image was so sharp during motion that when I went to IPS it was straight up weird to play games because it was smearing so much in comparison.
Once i moved to IPS there was nothing that could make me go back to TN.
I used a 165Hz IPS from 2016 to 2025. It had no smearing.
It also depends on what people are sensitive to. Im very sensitive to colors and artifacts but i almost dont notice tearing for example. Some people are more sensitive to motion rather than something else. Plus all current monitors follow the same sample and hold technology.
These days TN is pointless and on it's way out anyway. The ones that are cheap are no cheaper than IPS and those that are good are so expensive that it's ridiculous to buy TN for that kind of money.
