Philips Announces 144 Hz Gaming LCD
Philips has announced a new 144 Hz gaming monitor, and it comes with a wired SmartKeypad.
Philips has announced a new monitor. While at first it might seem like an ordinary Full-HD TN panel-based monitor, it actually isn't. The monitor will be known as the Brilliance 242G5DJEB/75.
The monitor, which features an aspect ratio of 16:9 and a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, has a refresh rate of an impressive 144 Hz. Pair this with a 1 ms GtG response time, and you'll have a pretty fluid image, assuming that your graphics card can pump out frames fast enough.
The unit also has a horizontal viewing angle of 170º. Connectivity is handled by a VGA port, a Dual-Link DVI port, HDMI, and a DisplayPort connector. The screen also has a built-in USB 3.0 hub with four ports.
Included with the monitor is a wired remote. This SmartKey pad allows easy access to the controls for quick and snappy switching between presets.
There is no word yet on when the monitor will be available in stores, though an earlier revision already seems to be available in Europe for just over €350.

I hope it works better than my last Philips product. A 22 watt CFL that was supposed to last 8,000 hours but barely lasted 1,000.
So where are these 120Hz 2560x1440 monitors at?

Go to eBay and look for "Yamakasi Catleap 120Hz". It's $630 right now.
Because white gaming is better to have a faster response time than a higher color accuracy.

Employee wages are high enough that it's cheaper for the company to send the product to China, build it there, and send it back CHEAPER then building it in the USA. Think about that.

i did, and you make no sense. ever heard the term "cost of living"? no? i didn't think so.
now that i noticed, you don't even know what point you're trying to make. a rebranding of said korean panels would suffice. almost nothing is made in the US.
