Richmond Hill, ON, March 21, 2005: ViewSonic Corp. has announced the 19’’ VX924 and 17’’ VX724 LCD monitors, featuring 4 millisecond (ms) average video response time across the entire colour scale. According to ViewSonic, the fast response time, which the Company claims is the “world’s fastest”, makes them ideal for exteme gaming, viewing DVDs, and watching TV, as well as for traditional computer usage, such as rapidly scrolling content within a Website or document.
“Achieving the best results with gaming, streaming video and motion application usage has long been the domain of CRT technology,” commented Jennifer Gallo, Research Analyst, IDC. “With manufacturers incorporating better technology, such as faster response times, we should see more of a shift toward LCD displays for these demanding applications.”
The VX924 and VX724 are the first desktop displays to combine ViewSonic’s proprietary Dynamic Structure and Amplified Impulse video response acceleration technologies to support rates of up to 250 frames per second across the entire colour scale. This advancement, ViewSonic contends, produces “superior front-of-screen performance for motion video”, since the majority of video transitions on games and digital entertainment occur within these intermediate ranges.
“Breaking down barriers and setting new benchmarks for display technology demonstrates ViewSonic’s unwavering commitment to delivering the highest-quality visual experience,” noted Jeff Volpe, Vice President, Marketing, ViewSonic Americas. “Our Xtreme LCD offerings open up new opportunities for our customers and partners by providing exceptional performance for a variety of applications and markets.”
“These Xtreme displays mark a major milestone in LCD technology,” added Colleen Browne, General Manager, ViewSonic Canada. “The 4ms response time across all colour scales has allowed us to create the ultimate gaming monitors with motion video performance rivaling the best CRTs.”
The displays will be available in the second quarter of 2005.
