    Which ASUS LCD Monitor?

    In the market for a new LCD monitor. Newegg reviews  point to these two ASUS models:

    ASUS VH242H (23.6" $190 AR)

    ASUS VW246H (24" $220 AR)

    Newegg comparison here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Productcompare.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=2010190020&StoreType=-1&CompareItemList=N82E16824236052%2cN82E16824236049&bop=And

    Forgive me, but I cannot see a difference in these models, other than $30 in price and 0.4" inches in size. Experts, please distinguish these models, so that I and others like me can make an educated decision.

    Much obliged.

    You were correct in your assumption.

    Pretty much just the 0.4" difference.

    Thanks, IronMan, just looking to confirm that I'm not missing out on anything with the larger model. Anyone else?

    Re: Which ASUS LCD Monitor?

    cnet reviews say the ASUS VH242H is excellent and great bang for bucks. but if u still cant decide which one to go with, then go visiting your local store for a live demo to ensure that its overall image quality, color, and sharpness meets your expectation before purchasingStick out tongue

    I disagree on that - I have the 23.6inch one and it's fabulous.

    I don't recommend anyone going to stores to look at how good they are/crisp, usually they are set up to be that way, but the 'lower end' models are just as good if you actually change the settings... it's just marketing.
