  • Great monitor and a good price!
Style: 27" Fast IPS QHD 260Hz G-SYNC Height Adjust
The ASUS TUF Gaming 27 inch Gaming Monitor (VG27AQML1A) is awesome! It has vibrant color that immediately stands out, delivering rich tones that make games and movies pop. Its fluidity and response time keeps motion incredibly smooth, with no noticeable lag during fast‑paced scenes. The brightness levels are impressive, staying clear even in a well‑lit room. Overall, it feels like a premium display that elevates everything you put on it. I highly recommend after owning for a little over a year! ... show more

  • Budget monitor.

The monitor is really good. However it has some ghosting but for the prices there's no competitor right now.

  • Dead Pixels and screen glitching
Style: 27" Fast IPS QHD 260Hz G-SYNC Height Adjust
You can roll the dice and see if you get a good panel but I assume they have sold off all the good panels the old normal price and now are getting rid of stock that barely failed QC and selling it for cheap. I bought one of these and it came in perfect then after a couple hours some dead pixel lines showed up, I got it replaced and I was shocked when I booted into a game that not only did I have one dead pixel that didn't bother me that much but the screen started completely glitching out and distorting (both had back light bleed as well from the screen not being glued to the panel well enough). I was shocked, I think Asus TUFF and Asus ROG are 2 completely divisions in the company so its easy to think you'd get similar quality but no it is far from it. The ULMB feature was awesome but wow it makes your display insanely dim it actually felt like playing on 0 percent brightness. The 1440p was great when I wasn't focused on pixel issues and 240hz felt awesome compared to my old 144hz. Unfortunate I had to return both the monitors but that price is too good to be true unfortunately. One thing to keep in mind is I have been doing extensive research and a lot of other IPS monitors have pixels issues as well, seems to be a theme for 1440p on 27 inches. You might be better off just getting a higher refresh rate at 1080p or a lower refresh rate at 4k or just forking over more money for an OLED. I do lots of competitive FPS gaming but also do architectural rendering so unfortunately it looks like I am going to pay the OLED premium. ... show more

  • Solid choice
Style: 27" Fast IPS QHD 260Hz G-SYNC Height Adjust
TBH is one of the best 1440p high refresh rate monitors in the market right now, I was hessitating between MSI, TUF and Gigabyte, but the OC option was a deal breaker for me, plus variable OverDrive and ELMB (Extreme Low Motion Blur), they both work great, well implemented anti blur and overshoot tools that are built in, light leak is a thing eventhough I dont really care about this since I dont do art work or some sort of editing, zero dead pixels, flickering and backstrobbing is not obvious, in order to detect it or realise you gotta be very techy and known about this type of technology, great response times, so far very satisfied with this purchase! ... show more

Style: 27" Fast IPS QHD 260Hz G-SYNC Height Adjust
Guess I'll be the first to type out a review for these monitors. I have so many good reviews about the last-gen Asus tuff 144hz monitors but none for this one. I bought on the reviews of the last gen and I have to say I am not disappointed at all. The panels are super bright with awesome color out of the box. I calibrated to my liking and overclocked in the options menu to 260hz and I'm sure I will never turn back from that. Everything is so buttery smooth and in 2k. I really love the clarity and sharpness of anything that gets played. Coming from acer predator 1080p 240hz to this was day and night. I bought 2 to have side by side for my setup. Currently running intel i9-11900k, rtx3090FE, and 64 GB ram so the setup can for sure push them both. These monitors bring new life to my gaming, I would absolutely recommend them. Great price for a killer monitor. Also, it is 100x100 Vesa mount compatible ... show more

  • Best 2k monitor? ELMB Sync game changer but...
Style: 27" Fast IPS QHD 260Hz G-SYNC Height Adjust
For the price, monitor is amazing and very good performing. I have both the 1080p 280hz version and now this brand new one 1440p 260hz. ELMB Sync lowers nits quite a bit, but if you game in a darker environment it should be negligible. When ELMB Sync is on, amazingly smooth. Best visuals you can get for the price. Stand feels extremely premium too. Colors are vibrant and nice when set to Scenery and Contrast adjustments. It's damn amazing for the price, though I wish I could raise the brightness during ELMB sync. 1080p version was plenty bright with ELMB on. Once you go ELMB or any type of motion blur reduction tech, you can't go away from it. Fair warning. If this is the budget, get it. If you can fork more money, go that route, just make sure it has some sort of motion blur tech similar to ELMB Sync. My new main? Very possible ... show more

  • Two Monitors Experiencing Screen Tearing/Glitching in About 18 Months
Style: 27" Fast IPS QHD 260Hz G-SYNC Height Adjust
I've gone through two of these so far. The first two were great for about a year and a half until one of them started to experience screen glitches/tearing across the entire face of the monitor. I ordered a replacement because it was outside of the warranty duration and I've had good experience with ASUS products over the years. It arrived with a very noticeable green tint that I was able to adjust out, for the most part, with the user mode color settings in the monitor itself. Still, it doesn't quite match the original monitor it was paired with. Two weeks later, the second of the two original monitors started to experience screen tearing/glitching - several black bars along the bottom of the screen that flash every couple seconds. Now they're permanent and a second, larger set of black bars are flicking just a bit higher up. Really made me regret ordering a replacement, I didn't realize ASUS quality had dropped this much. BOTH original monitors failed in ~18 months. Since I purchased them in March, 2024 I don't think I can get a refund either. Very frustrating. I've heard Acer monitors don't break down in under 2 years from normal use, I will try them instead moving forward. ... show more
