Asus VH242H 23.6" Widescreen LCD Monitor @ HotHardware.com

news · March 10, 2009

Hello Everyone,

With Asus's recent Blitzkrieg of inexpensive Eee PC netbooks and nettops, it

might be easy forget that Asus also manufactures a full bevy of components

and peripherals from motherboards to graphics cards to networking products.

Asus also makes LCD displays, ranging in size from 17-inches on up to

26-inches, which cover a wide swath of feature sets and needs from the

budget user to the graphics professional.

One of Asus' recently released displays is the Asus VH242H 23.6-inch

widescreen LCD Monitor. The "V" in the product name indicates that it is a

"value" model--in other words, it is a budget display. But even with a

budget price tag of $249 and using inexpensive thin-film-transistor

twisted-nematic (TFT-TN) display technology, the VH242H offers features and

performance that you would expect from more-expensive displays. In fact,

you'd be hard-pressed to find many 24-inch or 23.6-inch LCD display at this

price point.

Where the VH242H finds places to cut corners is with its lack of an

integrated USB hub and a monitor stand that doesn't swivel or offer any

height adjustments. But the monitor does include integrated, stereo

speakers, as well as separate video inputs for DVI-D, VGA, and HDMI 1.1.

Adding to its value, the HDMI input is HDCP compliant, so you can use the

VH242H to display protected HD content. Come on by the site and check it

out...
