ViewSonic announces the IPS 144hz 1440p VX2705-2KP-MHD gaming monitor

ViewSonic VX2705-2KP-MHD is a brand new gaming monitor that should be available for purchase worldwide later this year. The model is most probably a continuation of last year's VX2758-2KP-MHD version which had sold really well as it is was a budget variant.

The monitor comes with high refresh rate and support for AMD FreeSync Premium technology that should work great with AMD graphics cards. Also, the FreeSync support might also apply for NVIDIA cards, as most probably they will upgrade their graphic cards' drivers to support all the new monitors soon to be launched. The official specs website doesn't list NVIDIA G-Sync, but that hasn't stopped other monitors with "only-FreeSync" option from supporting the NVIDIA cards and offering almost the same performance with those as it does with AMD cards.

The ViewSonic VX2705-2KP-MHD offers a 27" IPS QHD panel, 2560 x 1440 resolution, 1000:1 contrast ratio, 350nits standard brightness levels, 16:9 aspect ratio, 1ms MPRT, excellent wide viewing angles with great picture quality no matter where you're placing the monitor, Flicker-free, Blue Light Filter, 144hz variable refresh rate and Adaptive Sync support, 10bit (8bit+FRC) panel, two HDMI 2.0 ports, one DisplayPort 1.4 input, 3.5mm headphone jack, built-in audio speakers, VESA 100x100 compatible.

The ergonomics of the VX2705-2KP-MHD model are unfortunately lacking as it only allows the adjustment of its tilt angle. The monitor will most probably be budget-oriented and it shouldn't cost more than $500 at launch date. The monitor will surely be sold worldwide and we will be posting an update when such details are made known.
