Just saw this while browsing the monitor section on JB, seems like a decent price for a 24" monitor.

A quick Google search provides pretty good reviews and ratings.

It's $167 now.
Looks good - no VESA compatibility though.
Its almost the end of 2017 and still monitors don't have DisplayPort :( My Asus 960GTX (2yr old card) has only 1 HDMI and 3 DP and would love to get a second monitor with a DP port. Seems a decent monitor as a primary monitor.
or run an adapter. ;)
Buy decent monitors then. Anything without DP in this day and age isn't worth buying.
Any advantage to have DP for gaming?
Doesn't really make a difference for this monitor, but for better gaming monitors Display port is needed for Nvidia G-Sync or AMD Freesync. Also display port supports higher refresh rates
Thanks
In that mean I have to use nvidia card to use G-Sync and AMD card to use FreeSync?
Why is it considered a gaming monitor? 1080p with 75hz refresh rate. Seems pretty standard.
60hz is standard.
75Hz and 1ms response time.
It's 5ms.
Oh you're right its IPS, you can't get 1ms. They trick you by saying "1 ms Motion Blur Reduction"
@Sowny: AFAIK no TV panel in existence has a response time of <10ms with 15-20ms being the average. High end computer panels are the only ones with 1ms response times.
Funnily enough it's usually cheap monitors with 1ms since only TN and I think VA panels can a achieve 1ms. IPS is superior but cannot get to 1ms.
@vee124: Usually still the more expensive ones though. I've found the cheaper TN panels still average around 5ms.
It does have Freesync but doesn't specify what range.
MSY has the Borderless VESA 24MP68VQ-P for $239
