Yes it does.
@simrit3 The mount you linked to will fit both an MIS-D 75 and an MIS-D 100 monitor, so it's likely to fit almost anything.
You need to check the monitor's specifications to find out for certain what VESA standard it uses, but it's likely this mount will be just fine.
[quote=djpinc19]With ASUS's VE and VS LED monitors, green is overly expressed, but can be mostly corrected with calibration. Orange, even after calibration is still noticeably weaker than all the other colors. While proper color calibration does improve the colors overall, a good number of competing monitors have better colors. Samsung's LED monitors are amongst the best although considered to be somewhat overpriced. Viewsonic's LED monitors are often considered to have the best features and picture quality for their cost. Notice how I used the word "considered." People are going to have differing opinions on monitors and so it would be best for you to go see a live demo of these monitors at a store.[/quote]
Wow, thanks for the responses. You know quite a bit on this type of stuff, hats off to you my friend. Samsung is definitely overpriced, no doubt. I think I'm going to go with the ASUS because I'm fairly good with calibration and I don't really want to spend too much on a monitor. Thanks a lot with the help!

[quote=simrit3]@djpinc19 How bad is the problem? I do watch some movies on my computers so I don't want it to have a colour problem, also what about Samsung monitors? Or can you recommend a good company for monitors?[/quote]

go to goodwill
get cheapass monitor about that size
save ton of money
I just use my 37" tv as a monitor.
If color accuracy isn't all that important to you, then it's acceptable for the price. It's not great because ASUS's LED monitors really do have color accuracy issues particularly with green and orange.
...and what VESA mount?
Good deal. If you want cheaper wait for Black Friday Sales.
