The product, explained
About the Viewsonic VX2718-2KPC-MHD
Viewsonic VX2718-2KPC-MHD is listed in the computer monitors category. The recorded specifications include display diagonal: 68.6 cm (27"); display resolution: 2560 x 1440 pixels; panel type: VA; maximum refresh rate: 165 Hz. This entry covers manufacturer code VX2718-2KPC-MHD. Specifications relate to this exact source record; other editions or packages may differ.
The 68.6 cm (27") display is specified at 2560 x 1440 pixels. Consider these together: a larger screen provides more physical space, while resolution determines the number of pixels available. Neither specification establishes brightness, colour accuracy or motion quality.
The listed maximum refresh rate is 165 Hz. To use it, the source device, cable, resolution and input must all support the intended mode. Refresh rate is separate from response time and input lag.
