21.5 inch model, what is the maximum frequency of the display? I'm asking in terms of FPS for gaming [Asus website says: 30~83 KHz(H)/ 50~75 Hz(V)]

Not really sure. Under the display's menu selections there is a "gaming" mode. When I pull up the display info in settings, this is what I see, but I'm only connected via VGA not DVI: 1920x1080, 68KHZ 60Hz, VS239H. Hope that helps.

Under the advanced settings on my computer, the refresh rate is set to 60Hz, which is also the only option. I'm running an ASUS GTX670, so I'm guessing that it knows best. Aside from that, I couldn't really tell you. This is with ASUS' video card driver v. 9.18.13.37888 (5/19/14) and the Microsoft driver for Generic PnP driver v. 6.3.9600.16384. I don't know that ASUS has a proprietary driver for the VS229H-P, and Microsoft isn't that great with actually checking for other companies' drivers at this basic of a level -- I just haven't looked for myself because I haven't found the need to check (M$'s driver is dated 6/21/2006, which is absolutely ancient as far as drivers go).

Yes, it's limited to the usual 60Hz. With modern monitors that's just fine. Modern LCD screens do not have the laser sweep of old CRT screens, so you won't need to change your refresh rate to desynchronize from your overhead lights anymore. (And if you're going significantly over that in games, you're just wasting power, so vsync would make more sense in anything that exceeds this rate.)

Hi Thank you for your interest. Recently manufactured this model can overclock without frame skipping. But overclocking Hz depends on your graphic card. Normally it can be overclocked to 75/85/96 hz Thank you.

The description is incorrect. Asus' website confirms that it is 5ms: http://www.asus.com/us/Monitors_Projectors/VS229HP/#specifications

US 60hz... wait maybe not. I will have to go home and check it out. I'll get back to you.

I think you mean Hz, not MHz, and it does them all. It even does 4K at 30Hz, which is how I use it.

I have 2 of these and they work wonders. Depends what you're doing/playing. If you're monitor is 120/144hZ or 4k (best to go with the 4gb version of this card) What are your specs going to be?

I have 3 of these my kids use for gaming. 2 at my cabin and 1 on a spare PC at home. Look at millisecond rating not hertz for speed. They are plenty fast and cheap too. Highly recommend for cheap gaming rig. The seller I bought mine from gave me a choice of either the old VGA or DVI cord. I would assume VGA cord unless you confirm with your seller. Get / Use DVI connection for best image quality.

The refresh rate (Hz) can vary from 50 Hz to 75 Hz depending on screen resolution. For a list of the refresh rates and corresponding resolutions, click on the following link:

Depends on the type of gaming. The 5-6ms response time isnt great for FPS or games with a lot of things moving on the screen very quickly, you will notice ghosting. I run 2 of them in a triple screen setup though, with the 2 GW2450's on the outside. I bought a much faster 2ms BenQ for the center monitor and I dont notice any ghosting anywhere. Partly because I dont focus on the side screens because they serve as peripheral viewing but Id say in general, yes. For best results? No.

I've been using this monitor since last November and I haven't had any problems with gaming. I am not, however, extremely sensitive to ghosting, lag or color reproduction, and I have not noticed anything like that. I do not play a lot of FPS - mostly Skyrim. Hope that helps some.

Based on the fact PC Gamer declared this the best monitor for gaming available on the market right now I don't think the "don't use this for gaming" is good advice. Your ghosting of window's frames is probably due to visual settings in windows as this monitor has a 5ms response time which is pretty much as fast as the human eye can detect. Edit, 28 Feb: Got mine in today and I'm blown away, finally putting the extra horsepower in my gaming rig to some use bumping my games from 1080p to 1440p and it looks amazing, really gave me the "wow" factor normally associated with a major hardware upgrade. No ghosting in Battlefield 4, between color and resolution I felt like I could pic out every little detail and guys moving around from really far away with ease.

LCD Buying Guide says -30ms- with Gaming mode on, and -140ms- with it off. They think it is great for both 2D and 3D gaming. I am sold on this TV.

not sure, but my best guess is 60hz since windows tells me my options to change are from 60, 59, 50, 29, 23, 24, 25 Hz.

Screen "refresh rate" refers to how many times the horizontal lines on the display are rendered or "drawn" in one second. Though a higher rate does not guarantee that no motion blur will occur, it certainly helps. I own both the H5500 and the 120 Hz H6350, and the H6350 looks MUCH better.

John, while I don't own this particular model (I bought a different model for my son), in looking up the specs, it appears that this model has a 60Hz refresh rate.
