The ViewSonic VX24G81-2K is a QHD 260Hz Fast IPS monitor for competitive play and crisp visualsThe ViewSonic VX24G81-2K is a compact, performance-first 23.8-inch Fast IPS monitor built for fast-paced gaming and color-conscious creative work. Its QHD resolution (2560 x 1440 px) delivers noticeably sharper detail than a standard 1080p panel while maintaining a comfortably small footprint on a desk, and the 123 PPI pixel density gives text and textures crispness that's ideal for both competitive play and content review. Where this monitor really shines is in motion. The panel supports an exceptionally high refresh rate - up to 260 Hz over its DisplayPort 1.4 input - and a 1 ms Gray-to-Gray response time, producing silky smooth motion and reduced blur in rapid sequences. The two HDMI 2.0 inputs support QHD at 144 Hz for compatibility with a wide range of consoles and PCs, and Adaptive Sync compatibility with both FreeSync and G-Sync ensures tear-free, low-latency gameplay across GPU vendors. Complementing these core specs are gamer-focused tools such as an on-screen crosshair, black stabilizer for better visibility in dark scenes, and multiple ViewMode color/visual presets.

Color fidelity and brightness are equally well balanced for a gaming monitor. The VX24G81-2K covers 100% of sRGB and about 95% of DCI-P3 (CIE 1976), and its 10-bit color pipeline (8-bit + Hi-RFC) reproduces smooth gradients and richer tones for more accurate images. Typical brightness hits 400 cd/m² with a native contrast of 1000:1 and an impressive dynamic contrast range (DCR) for punchier highlights and deeper-looking shadows, while HDR10 support brings extra pop to HDR-ready content.

The display's surface is treated with a 3H anti-glare coating and 25% haze, reducing reflections without overly softening the image. A wide 178°/178° viewing angle preserves color and contrast when you’re viewing off-axis, and a practical tilt range of -5° to 20° gives you quick ergonomic adjustment. Connectivity is modern and straightforward with two HDMI 2.0 ports, one DisplayPort 1.4 (HDCP 2.2), a 3.5 mm audio out, and a USB firmware/upgrades port.

ViewSonic packs useful eye- and comfort-focused features into the hardware: a built-in low-blue-light mode and flicker-free operation help reduce eye fatigue during long sessions, while a selection of color modes and picture enhancements let you tune the panel for esports, movies, or productivity. The VX24G81-2K balances high-refresh gaming performance with solid color accuracy and practical ergonomics, making it a strong choice for gamers who want crisp QHD visuals and competitive fluidity in a 24-inch-class monitor.
