24 Inch VA Panel Monitors

The 24 inch VA monitors here are all Full HD (1920 x 1080) and span two refresh rates. The MSI G2422C runs at 180 Hz with HDMI and DisplayPort inputs. The 23.8 inch MSI PRO MP2412 and HP Series 3 Pro 324PV both run at 100 Hz with HDMI and VGA (D-Sub). HP rates the 324PV at 3000:1 contrast. Both MSI and HP cover their models with a 3 year warranty.

VA panels give deeper blacks and higher contrast than IPS, which suits films, dark game scenes and evening work. The trade-off is that colours shift more at wide viewing angles. For gaming, the G2422C is the one to pick. Its 180 Hz refresh and DisplayPort input suit a graphics card that can push high frame rates. For office, study or home use, the MP2412 and 324PV are enough at 100 Hz. Their VGA port also helps with older PCs that lack HDMI. The MSI and HP models are also listed on their own brand pages.

Can these monitors connect to an old PC with only VGA? The MSI PRO MP2412 and HP 324PV have VGA (D-Sub) ports. The G2422C uses HDMI and DisplayPort only.

What is the difference between 23.8 inch and 24 inch monitors? Nothing in practice. 23.8 inches is the measured viewable diagonal of a panel sold as a 24 inch class monitor.
