ASUS VG248QE Black 24" 144Hz 1ms $279 @ Newegg FS with shoprunner

Thanks. I was going to wait for Amazon to get restocked with these, but after getting an email this morning from them estimating delivery late Feb or early March I decided to cancel. Back in the day I wouldn't mind ordering from Newegg, but these last couple years they seem to have really gone down the crapper. Their shipping is slow as hell and they are horrible to deal with if you need to return a defective product that they sent you, but hopefully using Shoprunner will remedy this.

Actually a really good deal for something that has better response time than a 120hz monitor for gaming.

Comes close in relation to the BenQ monitors

Save 30.00 (10%)

279.99 + Free shipping with shoprunner

Price in title would save time. Thanks!

first time ever making a thread, thanks for the input

Thanks for the post but...

not much of a deal off its MSRP price. Now if this was the model that came with the nvidia glasses, at this price it would be a good deal.. 10% off retail is no biggie. thats an everyday sale price. Its been that price for at least 2 weeks now at newegg.

I also think I read somewhere these have a problem with a green tint or something. but it seems like it has great newegg user reviews.

oh yeah. and this post is also a repost. was already posted on 2/5.

more like checked previous slick deals posts... something everyone should do BEFORE posting an item. type in search box model number... no wizardry here. my son.

This is the erryday normal price @ Newegg, at least for the past month.

This is fail... Repped for effort.

you lack character. learn to socialize

When I saw this in my email I had hoped it had gone on sale, but this is the price its been at since it first came out so I don't know why this was posted?

FYI, the Asus VG248QE is now down to $265 backordered through Amazon (was $279 backordered last night from Amazon, and is now $289 from Newegg). I've been refreshing reviews and tracking this monitor at Newegg and Amazon for the past couple weeks wondering why I hadn't pulled the trigger yet. I'm stoked I waited, the extra $15 off through Amazon did it for me.

Even though Amazon says it ships in 3-5 weeks, I'm confident it will ship much sooner. A week ago, this was also backordered at Amazon stating 3-5 weeks, and the next day it was back in stock. So stoked to start gaming again, now I just need to pull the trigger on a video card, which I've been wrestling with since summer of last year.

Quote from Deals4Lyfe : I mean the panels are "capable" the only difference between my monitor and a OCable catleap is the PCB (which some company was talking about making, i forget which)

One of the companies I know that is now selling a 120hz PCB is Overlord computer, I haven't tried them but linking for reference.
