Review – Acer Nitro VG240Y: Budget 100Hz 1080p monitor done right
Kok Kee March 30, 2023
Introducing a budget gaming monitor by Acer. This is the Acer Nitro VG240Y and it is only priced at RM459. I want tyou to keep that in your mind because for that low price, we’re getting quite a lot here. On the specs sheet – it’s a 24-inch IPS LCD screen with 100Hz refresh rate at 1080p resolution. Sounds unbelievable? Don’t worry, I was skeptical at first too. Was – because after using this monitor for about 2 weeks and go through our tests, I found out that this display is very worth the RM459 price tag. Here’s why.

Let’s take a look at another AIO PC that is available today. This entire setup – including the wireless keyboard and mouse bundle – is priced at only RM2,999 now. With its specs and everything included, this ASUS A3402 is actually a pretty good deal.
Review – Philips 27E1N monitor (27-inch 1440p 75Hz with USB-C)
Kok Kee December 19, 2022
Introducing the Philips 27E1N56. Honestly, I don’t know the full name of the monitor but in Windows, it is called the 27E1N5600A. Yeah, that’s the name of the monitor. The box?
Review – Philips 32M1N (32-inch 1440p 165Hz)
Kok Kee December 16, 2022
Introducing yet another monitor by Philips. This is a 32-inch monitor and by the looks alone, you might think that this is the same as the 27-inch version that we reviewed previously – and I don’t blame you because they do look the same, it’s just that the 32-inch version is obviously bigger.

Refresh rate vs. Pixel response time: The reality of MPRT feat. BenQ Zowie XL2566K monitor
Kok Kee October 31, 2022
Introducing, the BenQ ZOWIE XL2566K monitor. We bring this up because when it comes to PC gaming, everyone says that “if you want to have the best gaming experience, you’re going to need a high refresh rate monitor”, right? That’s what the marketing says and that’s what NVIDIA says too – frames win games. In terms of motion smoothness, yes. But, what if I tell you that there are more things that you need to pay attention to – like pixel response time and motion blur? Let’s talk about it.
Long-term review – Dell UltraSharp U4021QW: My dream monitor, but it’s not perfect
Kok Kee October 12, 2022
Introducing the Dell UltraSharp U4021QW – again. We reviewed this monitor more than a year ago and I said that this monitor is actually very good. About 2 months ago, I started using this monitor as my daily driver – and I have a lot of long-term user experience stories to share with you.
Review – Arzopa G1 Portable Monitor with 144Hz & FreeSync
Kok Kee September 5, 2022
It’s only been a few years since the idea of a “portable monitor” started to pick up steam. Today, we have the Arzopa G1 with us. There are a few quirks here and there but overall, the Arzopa G1 portable monitor does what it is advertised to do. Since this is a portable monitor, I think it is much more suitable to watch our video instead of reading since video is a much better way to convey information.
BenQ MOBIUZ EX2710U – Best PC & Console 4K 144Hz IPS in 2022
Kok Kee August 29, 2022
When it comes to high-end gaming monitors, it’s always the same type of things shown in reviews – running benchmarks, colorful games, testing out HDR with some games like Cyberpunk 2077 and perhaps running some benchmarks like the UFO Test to show the latency and whatnot. Those methodologies work – but they’re just too generic at this point.
Samsung Odyssey G9 Neo + SimMatch GT1 = fantastic sim racing rig!
Kok Kee August 27, 2022
These are all the experiences shared by our very own racing simulator enthusiast – Mr John. He is someone who actually bought those steering wheels, foot pedals, and gearbox controllers and hooked all of them to his own work desk. He liked it so much to the point that he even bought triple monitors to create the “sitting inside a car” feel – but ran into a lot of issues with that setup.
