Thread: ViewSonic VX1940W Monitor

This is a newer monitor, but doesn't feel as solid in build as its older sibling. It has that built-to-a-budget feel and look to it. Neck deep in DisplayMate's geometry tests we had some issues with the point and line tests, and later with the contrast tests where, try as we might, we couldn't spot much of the grey cards in a black background in the Intensity Range Check tests. In the colour tests, we ran into some problems with the 16 and 64 shade tests, where the monitor kept missing out on certain intensities especially at the brighter-end of things. Gaming isn't the experience we wanted It to be, not that this was unexpected, considering the performance in DisplayMate. Movies also show a contrast issue, although the colours aren't too bad. At Rs 10,650 the VX1940W isn't the cheapest monitor ,around, nor is
it the best performing. The fact that the cheaper Samsung 953BW outshines it in nearly every test is reason enough to stay away from it.
