Asus has announced what they claim to be the first 19-inch widescreen (19”W+) LCD monitor with WSXGA+ 1680x1050 high resolution.It comes with the exclusive ASUS Smart Contrast Ratio Technology with a high contrast ratio 3000:1 and passes the WHQL tests to be certified for Windows Vista Premium version.
The VW198 series incorporates wide viewing angles, 5ms response time and 300 nits brightness to deliver clear and smooth image quality. The ASCR (ASUS Smart Contrast Ratio Technology) provides the high contrast ratio of 3000:1 that dynamically adjusts contrast between black and white to create sharper and more stereoscopic images. Built-in stereo speakers complete the multimedia ensemble and deliver a video display solution with high-quality audio experience.
Splendid Video Intelligence Technology, found exclusively in ASUS solutions, detects activation and usage of video applications and automatically optimizes image quality for the best visual results. Besides providing five pre-set modes (Standard, Game, Theater, Scenery and Night), this innovative technology also enables the selection of three skin tone options for high-quality images in different video applications.
