ViewSonic Releases XG2530 and the XG3202-C Gaming Monitors
The ViewSonic XG2530 is a 25-inch gaming monitor, with a 240Hz refresh rate and embedded AMD FreeSync technology that has been designed to meet the specific needs of competitive gamers and professional eSports players.
The monitor features a 1ms response time and native Full HD 1080p (1920x1080) resolution, meaning it is capable of eliminating screen tearing and stuttering for fluid gameplay even during the most graphic-intense sequences. The monitor’s exclusive ColorX gaming mode helps optimise visual effects, making it ideal for immersive gameplay.
In addition to ColorX™, the monitor comes with an arsenal of pre-set customisable visual modes that make First Person Shooter (FPS), Real-Time Strategy (RTS), and Multiplayer Online Battle Arena [MOBA] games even better. A black stabilisation function improves visibility in dark scenes, while maintaining brilliant and vibrant colours and contrast.
The XG3202-C is ViewSonic’s first curved gaming monitor to be available in the UK. It is a stylish 32-inch display with a 144Hz refresh rate and also features AMD FreeSync™ technology. Engineered with a focus on visual performance, it features an 1800R curvature radius, delivering a wide field of view from multiple angles and smooth image performance. This monitor’s Full HD SuperClear® VA panel enhances colour accuracy and combines with the display’s low input lag for engaging gameplay.
“Inspired to meet the very specific needs of the most demanding gamers, we developed these new XG monitors with a wide range of options that represent the difference between winning and losing,” said Posen Wang, managing director at ViewSonic Europe. “The XG2530 and the XG3202-C monitors are standout products in our XG range and offer users the pinnacle of gaming performance, delivering the stellar, stutter-free action that competitive gamers demand.”
MSRP at launch
XG2530: 449 Euro
XG3202-C: 549 Euro

Are both VA, or is the 144hz one VA and the 240hz TN?

But you don't understand! This is the difference between winning and losing! You don't want to lose, do you? So you better buy ViewSonic XG2530 with groundbreaking ColorX™ technology that gives you that extra edge you need to win and keep winning.

Shortly after getting 120Hz screen, i collected some bans in cs1.6.
Because popular cheat detection used was storing frames into buffer at 60 hz rate. And upon kill, it sent 2 last images to server.
They even posted it as evidence. On one frame, I am at corner to CT start, on next, enemy head is hit. I had one frame in between which was enough.
Price here is pretty steep, if it was 240Hz VA, I would take it.

the 240hz 1ms gtg display is almost certainly a TN panel.
notice how they never mention the response time on the VA panel? its because its likely not 1ms, i think they are typically around 4-5ms gtg response times.
as an avid FPS gamer (CSGO particularly) i gravitate towards the TN panels, as they give the absolute best response times - colour quality be damned!
the 25" 1080p display is quite appealing, i just wished it looked as good as the curved display will/does

fascinating, i am assuming that it was a third party anticheat that did that.
i remember playing in EnemyDown in the England and needing their XAC anticheat which took periodic screenshots at random of your screen during gameplay. it would then upload these to their servers for third party review and approval as legitimate.
was a nice way to catch togglers, because the interval of taking screenshots was randomized, so there was no pattern to it

Yep, it was custom stuff.

Would rather buy Samsung CHG70, it's "only" 144Hz (which is more than enough), it has Q-dot VA panel with WQHD resolution and supports both HDR and Freesync 2.

Isn't that HDR fake ? Looking at stats brightness is only 350cd/m2. Also seen ppl reporting same problems as CFG70.

Me too, actually. I was just being sarcastic, but apparently nobody caught on.

32" monitor and only FullHD resolution?? Pixels will be like bumblebee-s...
Though, I like the design of the monitors.
