THE DIFFERENCES, MADE VISIBLE

Visual facts

Differences first. Select a topic for its graphic, sources and conditions.

How to read this comparison
  • Manufacturer facts for the exact models shown. Not a quality rating or a test result.
  • “Different” means the known values differ, not that one is better.
  • Missing or conflicting evidence is marked and never counts as a difference. Source chips hold each fact’s sources and conditions.

Max refresh

Maximum manufacturer-listed refresh rate, not measured motion clarity. The port-specific limits below matter; HDMI and DisplayPort can support different modes.

ASUS VA27EHF100 Hz

Manufacturer specification · Through the single HDMI input (48–100 Hz vertical range).

MSI G242L E14144 Hz

Manufacturer specification · Up to 144 Hz at 1920 × 1080 through HDMI or DisplayPort.

Explore the full specifications

Match the monitor to the connection. Refresh limits depend on the input, cable and source device. Confirm the exact regional ports, stand adjustment and mount. Manufacturer response-time methods such as MPRT and GtG are different; neither the image nor these figures establish an independent motion or colour-quality test.

WHAT EACH CHOICE ASKS OF YOU

What it brings and what to check

ASUS VA27EHF

What it brings

  • ASUS declares a 14.63 W on-mode figure and lists TÜV Flicker-free and Low Blue Light certifications plus ENERGY STAR, TCO Certified and EPEAT Bronze.
  • 100 Hz with Adaptive-Sync over HDMI gives smoother desktop scrolling than a 60 Hz office panel, and the IPS panel is rated at 1300:1 typical contrast.
  • ASUS lists a 100 × 100 mm VESA wall-mount pattern and weights of 3.85 kg with the stand and 3.28 kg without it.

What to check

  • The only input is one HDMI 1.4 port: no DisplayPort, USB-C, USB hub, speakers or audio jack.
  • Full HD across 27 inches gives a coarse 0.311 mm pixel pitch, typical brightness is 250 cd/m², and the user guide lists a 6-bit + FRC panel.
  • The stand tilts only; there is no height adjustment, and swivel and pivot are not listed.
