PG221 is the second addition to Asus’ PG-series of gaming monitors and was first shown off at this year’s CeBIT trade show in March. Asus’ first gaming monitor was a standard aspect 19” display that was kitted out with striking looks and respectable performance, but was ultimately let down by a very high price and its rather limiting 1280x1024 resolution.
You see, gamers have started moving to widescreen monitors en masse, and a recent poll in the bit-tech community discussion forums proved this was happening faster than we could have imagined. Not only were we very surprised at the percentage of voters that had 20”, 21” and 22” widescreen monitors, we were equally amazed by the percentage of voters that used a 24” widescreen monitor as their main monitor too.
