Do you play games on it? If so, is it very good?

Virtual Skipper 5, FSX, Need For Speed Pro Street, Half Life 2 and all the episodes, although HL2 dose not go up to 1920x1080 so you have black strips down both sides. No problems.

Do you know what the refresh rate of the monitor is?

732485 2008-12-26 06:29:00 Its probably 60 hz. And response time is 5ms Speedy Gonzales (78)

Speedy, is the one that you have also 60hz?
davidmmac (4619)
732488 2008-12-26 21:48:00 Yup this is also 60 hz. Most monitors are. But its 2 - 5 ms response time Speedy Gonzales (78)
732489 2008-12-26 22:20:00 Just noticed on the ascent website, for the VX2233WM it says "May have some pixel defects" whereas for the VX2260WM it says "Zero bright pixels". What does this mean and should I be worried? davidmmac (4619)
