Versatile 24-inch IPS display
The ViewSonic VA2456A-MHD is a 24-inch Full HD IPS monitor with a 120Hz refresh rate, anti-glare coating and three video inputs. It delivers 16.7 million colours, 250 cd/m² brightness and a 1500:1 static contrast ratio. SuperClear IPS technology provides 178° horizontal and vertical viewing angles. Flicker-Free and Blue Light Filter features reduce eye strain during long sessions.
Suits general use, not colour-critical work
This monitor suits home and office users who need smooth 120Hz motion for everyday tasks, video playback and casual gaming. Wide viewing angles make it practical for shared screens or multi-monitor setups. Buyers who require factory colour calibration, higher brightness for HDR content or a resolution above 1920x1080 should look at something else. The 4ms response time may not satisfy competitive esports players.
120Hz refresh rate with FreeSync Premium
The single specification that decides suitability is the 120Hz refresh rate combined with AMD FreeSync Premium adaptive sync. This pairing reduces screen tearing and stutter when the graphics source supports variable refresh rates. If the buyer's system cannot output 120Hz over HDMI or DisplayPort, or does not support FreeSync, the core benefit of this model is not realised.

Questions about this item
What cable and port must my computer already provide to use the 120 Hz refresh rate on this VA2456A-MHD?
Your computer needs a DisplayPort or HDMI output capable of 1920×1080 at 120 Hz; a VGA connection will not support the higher refresh rate.
Will my older graphics card that only has VGA work with the VA2456A-MHD at 1080p?
Yes, the monitor includes a VGA input, but the maximum refresh rate over VGA is lower than 120 Hz; you will still get 1920×1080 resolution.
How can I confirm the VA2456A-MHD is running at 120 Hz and FreeSync Premium is active after setup?
Open the on-screen display information menu to verify 120 Hz, and check your GPU control panel to confirm FreeSync Premium is enabled for the connected DisplayPort or HDMI link.
