ViewSonic Corp., a leading global provider of visual solutions, introduces the latest line of budget-friendly monitors for home entertainment and gaming. The VX18 series of monitors will come in sizes from 24- to 34-inches, features adaptive sync technology, an ultra-fast 1 ms (MPRT) response time and refresh rates that range from 144 Hz to 165 Hz. Created for price-sensitive users looking for high performance features, the VX18 line of displays deliver great options for all types of entertainment applications.

The VX18 series of monitors include the VX2418-P-MHD, VX2718-P-MHD, VX2718-PC-MHD, VX2718-2KPC-MHD, VX3218-PC-MHD and VX3418-2KPC. Each monitor features adaptive sync connectivity, so displays can seamlessly synchronize the frame rate output between the graphics card and the monitor. This ensures a fluid gaming experience by eliminating screen tearing and stuttering. The VX18 monitors also come with the company's exclusive ViewMode presets, which offer enhanced on-screen performance for various entertainment applications such as watching/streaming movies, editing files or playing video games.



"With the VX18 line of monitors, ViewSonic is able to provide budget-conscious users with the features they want for gaming and entertainment," said Jenny Faber, product manager at ViewSonic America. "As social distancing and remote work continues to influence our daily activities, homes have been transformed into digital retreats where we can connect, work, and play. Bedrooms, kitchens, and recreation rooms are now primary spaces for virtual work, distance learning, and entertainment. The ViewSonic VX18 series of monitors was designed to support the wide range of ways people connect today, from gaming and video streaming to interactive content creation and sharing. We're offering multiple displays that can deliver image quality and visual fluidity with various screen sizes, resolutions, and flat or curved screens; the VX18 series gives the user a lot to choose from to best fit their lifestyle."

We're on the same boat. That's why I've been eyeing the LG 32GN650-B or the LG 32GK650F-B.
