What Buyers Say
KTC H24S17P 23.6"
The KTC H24S17P is a 24-inch 1080p 240Hz curved VA gaming monitor that offers strong native contrast and deep blacks, making it a good value for competitive gamers with midrange GPUs. However, independent testing reveals noticeable dark-transition smearing on the VA panel, which may disappoint motion-sensitive players. It supports VESA mounting and HDR10, but lacks height adjustment and a built-in webcam. Overall, it's a solid choice for high-frame-rate 1080p gaming, but not ideal for those prioritizing image sharpness or fast-motion clarity.
Pros
- Strong native contrast and deep blacks
- 240Hz refresh rate for smooth motion
- Good value for competitive gaming
- VESA mount compatible
- HDR10 support
Cons
- Noticeable dark-transition smearing on VA panel
- No height, swivel, or pivot adjustment
- No built-in webcam or microphone
- Limited HDR performance for high-end expectations
- Not ideal for motion-sensitive competitive players
ASUS TUF Gaming VG34VQL1B 34" Black 2021
The ASUS TUF Gaming VG34VQL1B is a 34-inch ultrawide 1440p monitor with a 165Hz refresh rate, praised for its great value and versatility for both gaming and productivity. Users highlight the excellent contrast, high refresh rate, and built-in USB hub, but note that HDR looks washed out and ghosting or overshoot can occur if settings aren't tuned properly.

- Excellent contrast and colors
