While having a 4K monitor for office-related use and content consumption is great, if you plan on doing video editing or gaming, make sure your PC will be able to handle it. It’s a good option if you can find it on sale for $250 – $300. However, it goes for around $450 no built-in speakers. It also has more extensive connectivity options (DP, DP-Out, HDMI, USB-C with 90W PD, USB-C upstream, USB-C downstream with 15W PD, four USB-A downstream ports with 10Gbps, a headphone jack and RJ45. If you’re looking for a premium 1080p docking monitor, there’s the Dell U2422HE model with 90W PD and an integrated KVM switch. It has two additional 5Gbps USB-A ports and a slightly higher 65W PD over USB-C, but it has no USB-B port or speakers and it’s ~$50 more expensive. The Dell P2422HE is another premium model based on the same panel, offering basically identical image quality and performance. Ethernet connection can be passed through via either USB-C or HDMI/DP + USB upstream. In order to daisy-chain monitors, the main display must be connected via either DP or USB-C and the ‘DP’ option enabled in the OSD menu (maximum 1080p resolution). There’s also the ViewSonic VG2456A variant with a higher 90W PD for $40 extra. ![]() The stand of the monitor is robust and versatile with up to 130mm height adjustment, -5°/40° tilt, 90° pivot, +/- 60° swivel and 100x100mm VESA mount compatibility.Ĭonnectivity options include HDMI 1.4, DisplayPort 1.2, USB-C (DP 1.2 Alt Mode, 60W PD), RJ45, DP-Out for daisy-chaining up to 4 monitors, dual 2W integrated speakers, a USB-B upstream port and two 5Gbps downstream USB-A ports at the side of the screen. The ASUS VA24ECPSN has a 100% sRGB gamut coverage and 8-bit color depth support (6-bit + 2-bit FRC) for 16.7 million colors, which along with its IPS panel makes it suitable for entry-level color-critical work after proper calibration. ![]() Of course, VA displays have other flaws and it’s rare to find one with a built-in stocking station anyway. Peak brightness amounts to 300-nits, so the screen can get more than bright enough under normal lighting conditions.Īs with all IPS monitors, there’s is some IPS glow and the contrast ratio is limited to around 1,000:1, so you won’t get quite as deep blacks as that of VA panel monitors. With roughly 92 PPI (pixels per inch), you get a fair amount of screen real estate with reasonably sharp details at a normal viewing distance, you won’t be able to notice individual pixels, unlike on 27″ 1080p monitors. The 1920×1080 Full HD resolution results in a decent pixel density on the 24″ sized screen of the VA24ECPSN. ![]() Like most monitors included in this guide, the ASUS VA24ECPSN uses IPS panel technology that provides accurate and consistent colors with 178° wide viewing angles, ensuring that the image remains perfect regardless of the angle you’re looking at the screen. The ASUS VA24ECPSN is the cheapest monitor with built-in docking that’s actually good and offers everything you need for a clean setup! Image Quality
