Asus PG1191 LCD monitor

[5N1P3R]

Now it seems the monitor manufacturers want a piece of the action too. The new Asus PG1191 19 inch monitor comes packed full of extras you wouldn’t expect to see in a conventional monitor.
The 19” LCD screen comes with a 1024×768 resolution and 800:1 contrast ratio, as well as a standard DVI input, but that’s where “standard” ends.
To enable you to watch films, videos and play 3D games without ghosting, Asus have added a so-called TraceFree technology, boosting the response time to 2ms apparently producing a smooth, video-like quality. There’s also some “intelligence” built in the monitor, which can somehow detect what’s being shown on the screen and optimise the display mode, choosing from 5 different modes.

Incorporated into the monitor are:
• a USB 2.0 hub with three ports
• a 1.8 Mega Pixels web camera
• an integrated 2.1 speaker system
• ports for speakers and microphone
