Yes, believe it or not, this gamer-courting behemoth also has something to offer greenies. The VX2739wm's specs say that it draws as much as 58 watts of electricity, though I personally never saw it draw more than about 50 watts in my testing, using a...

Sheer size of screen makes it a winner, matte display, Full HD, HDMI, minimal ghosting

Limited adjustment options, awkwardly positioned OSD buttons, slight backlight bleeding

If you're purely after a very large LCD monitor, then the ViewSonic VX2739wm should be near the top of your list. However, if you want optimal image quality, we would recommend spending a little less on a smaller but better quality display.

Hits the size and resolution sweet spot ; Decent image quality for a TNer ; Good value for money

1ms response a bit of a gimmick

Forget the flawed 1ms technology and this has good image quality and at a competitive price

Stylish design, range of connectivity, fast response time

No environment presets/custom modes, resolution and aspect ratio means you may not have as much room as you'd expect, doesn't really excel in any one area

Huge size for cheap price ; Can take 24p content ; Impressive typical contrast ratio

Auto-input switching wastes power ; Little adjustability in the stand ; Image is too sharp ; Poor speakers ; Side buttons

However, it does provide a huge, full HD monitor for an incredibly cheap price — and we'd wager many people would be happy with just that.

Improved menus, USB hub, HDMI, sleek design, easy installation, built in speakers

Noticeable backlight bleeding at the bottom, resolution could have been higher for this screen size, expensive, HDMI scaling issues
