A Great Upgrade
on September 23, 2017
Posted by: Pete
from Corona, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
SSD's are a great upgrade for a home computer and this one did not disappoint. I have used PNY's higher priced models and Samsung EVOs in the past and I can honestly not tell the difference between this model and the more expensive SSD's.

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is the perfect size monitor for my desk and has a great picture. I have not played any games on it yet but it should do well, there is no video lag at all. Asus makes great products.

Excellent High Speed Cable
on July 18, 2017
Posted by: Pete
Verified Purchase:Yes
I need to plug in the ethernet on my laptop to get the most out of my internet connection when downloading large files. When plugged in with this cable my Speedtest.net speed showed 351Mbps download and 23Mbps upload with a 5ms ping. So, yes, it works great!

Easy to set up
on July 18, 2017
Posted by: Pete
Verified Purchase:Yes
I like DVI connections better than HDMI for most pc's and this worked very well. HDMI often needs tweaking to get the best performance but DVI usually just works out of the box. No adjustment was necessary and the picture is crystal clear.

Is this compatible with windows 8.1 and are the drivers easily available on the net. What is the best 22 inch portable monitor you have for sale that meets these requirements? or even 24 ... not looking to drag everywhere but occasional mobility....

This monitor is plug and play, no additional drivers were needed on Windows 7 so Windows 8.1 should work as well or better.

I may purchase a mini mac and will need a monitor like this ASUS LED 21.5. Is this compatible with MAC? Some net forums suggest many monitors will work but the software provided is not useable for the MACs.

This should work fine with a Mac Mini although I have not tried it myself. All mac's have HDMI hookup and this monitor has one so you should be fine.

I'm looking for a monitor for my home security system. I know very little about what I'm looking for but it has good reviews and is within budget. Is this they type of monitor that works with a home security system?

This monitor should work fine for a home security system and might even be overkill. This is more of a home office or light gaming monitor and I use this monitor in my home office. At work we use Nextiva software on dual 19" monitors with 1366 x 768 resolution for video surveillance. You may not be able to run this monitor at full hd (1080p) resolutionon a home security system, depending on your software and setup. Most video surveillance software runs better at lower resolutions. Good luck!
