  • decent
Style: 27” 5K 180Hz or QHD 330Hz
Pretty good, my favorite LCD mac monitor out there given that it's the only one that's 5k and this high refresh (at the time of me writing this review, I'm sure more with this panel will come). Keep in mind that on mac refresh rate maxes out at 5k 165hz, for 180hz you need windows with a recent gpu. You also need a thunderbolt 5 mac, aka only m4 pro/max or better will be able to reach 5k 165hz. Picture quality is great, brightness is decent, backlight bleed is minimal and pretty acceptable for an IPS. Black levels are one of the better ones I've seen on an IPS. The coating is a typical IPS matte coating. Housing build quality is similar to other asus ips monitors aka fine, feels a bit cheaper than asus's oled monitors. Aesthetically, not the best work by asus, their oled lineup definitely looks sexier, housing wise. The 330 fps mode functions well and is easy to switch to. I really only have 3 gripes with it: 1) it comes with a stand pre attached, and to detach it you have to remove a bunch of plastic parts first, which is kind of annoying, it's not just a button press and slide out. 2) this is my biggest annoyance. As indicated on the picture, it has a plastic section right below the ports, which makes attaching cables really annoying. The default cables were a pita to insert, meanwhile I had my own ugreen cable with an overly long connector housing, that was straight up impossible to plug in. And that bracket is not removable. God knows what asus were thinking here. 3) the 330fps mode produces a slight audible whine, at least when I had it connected to the macbook, didn't test it with windows. It's not relevant if you use headphones, but in a quiet room when there is no other sound, it was audible and annoying to me. I can't say whether its a defect or an expected thing since this is the first time I ever used a 330hz IPS monitor. OLEDs do not have this issue I can say that for sure. To conclude, solid monitor, strong contender vs 4K oleds out there. A number of annoyances, unfortunately, take a star off for me. ... show more

  • Great 5K IPS Monitor
Style: 27” 5K 180Hz or QHD 330Hz
Initially, I was concerned about purchasing these monitors when I did (February 2026) because LG and others were scheduled to release similar 27" 5K monitors later in 2026. My previous 4K 27" monitors were also ASUS ROG and performed admirably, so I cautiously went ahead with the purchase. After almost 6 months of use, I'm pleased with the purchase even though they are now $150 USD cheaper ($699 USD) than when I purchased them (as of July 2026). At the lower price point, they are a steal. SETUP - VESA-mounted to dual-monitor stand. - Level1Techs DP 1.4 KVM for switching between desktop and work laptop. - Began with Windows 10, later switched to Windows 11. - Desktop has NVIDIA RTX 5070 GPU and CableMatters DP80 cables connected via DP 2.1 ports - Laptop has NVIDIA RTX 3500 Mobile GPU and CableMatters DP40/DP80 cables (will soon be only DP80 cables) connected via USB-C Thunderbolt ports ISSUES - I had a very concerning situation when ALT+TAB switching from a game running in full-screen mode back to outside of the game. When I switched over, one of the monitors stopped working altogether. The power indicator would work, but it would not respond to input and neither would the monitor controls. It showed as connected in Windows Display Settings and NVIDIA Control Panel, but you couldn't switch to it or configure it. Using one of the HDMI ports and an HDMI to DisplayPort cable, I was able to get the monitor to work and switch it back over to the DisplayPort port and it has worked fine since. There is a monitor setting which enables the user to select “DSC Support” on or off and as far as I can tell, it switched over to “DSC Support” off mode on its own and was stuck, causing the issue. I now run all games in borderless window mode to avoid this issue. The KVM and monitor are both DP 1.4, so DSC must be enabled. - I occasionally see flashes when one of the monitors is static (the monitor is displaying content but nothing is changing). When both monitors are active (the most common scenario), I don’t see any flashing. I have no idea what’s causing it. - I had difficulties obtaining a consistent and reliable RGB 120 Hz setting with Windows 10. I do not know if this was driver related. After switching to Windows 11, RGB 120 Hz was enabled by default after driver installation and has been solid without downgrading to YCbCr or a lower refresh rate. CONS - DisplayPort 1.4 - I have no idea why they went with a DP 1.4 port for a 5K monitor, should’ve been DP 2.1. DP 2.1 has been around since 2022 and should be the minimum for all new 4K+ monitors since the specification was announced. PROS - No dead pixels or physical defects of any kind. - Great 5K resolution. If you haven’t seen what 218 PPI or greater looks like, you owe it to yourself to experience it. Once you have, you will never want to go back to anything less. I’m very picky and have to get less than 6 inches away to see individual pixels. This is how all monitors should be. - IPS. - High refresh rate. Due to the KVM, I cannot achieve its highest refresh rates, but hope I will eventually be able to go >120 Hz when DP 2.1 KVMs are available from Level1Techs. - Great color out of the box. - RGB can be turned off completely. - A lot of configuration with the built-in controls. MINOR NITPICKS - Too much gamer aesthetic, which includes the overall construction and built-in controls. I rarely see the back of the monitors and only occasionally need to use the monitor controls, so this is not a huge issue. - The back shroud/cover surrounding the VESA mount is too concealed. The instructions/setup guide show how to remove it, but several other users messed up their monitor trying to remove it without looking at the instructions. Most users are never going to view the back of the monitor very closely, so adding more intuitive slots or even directions on the back of the monitor for its removal would help. The stand could also just not be installed by default from the factory. ... show more

  • Great clarity and brightness, some minor problems with ghosting
Style: 27” 5K 180Hz or QHD 330Hz
Excellent clarity and color is adequate for gaming and content consumption. The brightness is excellent, so much so that I have to turn it down from time to time. When properly configured with HDR through MacOS (or an equipped Linux distribution), I don’t have any brightness problems as mentioned in other reviews; however, it may be difficult to get it working on a Windows machine due to limited HDR support by Microsoft. Build quality is nice and sturdy, although it generates a noticeable bit of heat at higher resolutions and frame rates. Firmware interface is pretty slow to start, but after opening is manageable and easy to navigate. Monitor does take significant time to turn on (up to 10 seconds or more when signal received). Biggest issue is ghosting/temporary screen burn-in. When consuming HDR content at high brightness, or by having HDR enabled while viewing a document for example, the screen shows visible artifacts after the content is closed or moved. This effect is noticeable only after 5-10 minutes of no screen movement (leaving a bright white object in one place for a time), and goes away in about 1-2 minutes. It is not permanent, but was a little concerning when first noticed. Overall, I don’t really think it’s worth the $849 I paid, but I’d probably pay something like $500-$600. ... show more

  • 5K is great, but not the color shift, bad off-angle viewing, cloudy coating and slow to wake times.
Style: 27” 5K 180Hz or QHD 330Hz
I bought two of these monitors to replace my older dell 1440p 2721DGF 165 Hz monitors. These monitors have very nice text quality. Very crisp. But I ultimately decided to get rid of them. Why? 1) They're slow to wake up. When I wake my PC/Mac, my dell monitor(s) and every other monitor I've ever owned wake within 1-2 sec of signal being present on HDMI/Displayport. Not these Asus monitors. Sometimes they took 10+ seconds to wake. I read somewhere that you can disable auto input and set the input to a particular input setting (e.g., HDMI 1) to mitigate this issue. But that negates the purpose of auto input (when using multiple computers with the same monitor). This was annoying since older cheaper monitors wake more quickly. Strike one. 2) The other issue was the coating and lack of uniform color across the panel. There was a noticeable color shift on one of the monitors where on the right side, there was a red shift. So for example, I put a white image on full screen. The center of the screen looked white, but as you moved towards the edge, the color shifted and no longer looked white anymore. And then at the edge, it looked purplish. Very jarring for a $850 monitor when my older Dell monitors have no such issue. No other monitor that I've used have this issue. Also, the matte coating they have on here makes the image look somewhat cloudy. If you take that, and combine it with the fact that the monitor has a color shift, and its off-angle viewing isn't great, as well as the monitor's maximum brightness isn't that much (i think it's 300 to 350 nits), made them somewhat annoying to use. It's hard to put into words, but after extended use, over an 8-hour work from home day, my eyes felt tired, like they were trying to adjust to the Asus monitors but couldn't. I think I need a brighter screen. I never had this issue on my Dells or Acer gaming monitors. I worked from home for years and my eyes did not feel tired after even just 1 hour on the xg27jcg. I just want my monitor to be a monitor, effortlessly, and for my eyes to adjust well and not have to try very hard. I don't want there to be any weird issues with the coating, making it look a bit cloudy, or for the screen to not be bright enough. Strike out. So although the resolution was great and text clarity was immaculate, the other issues with the monitors ultimately caused me to get rid of this ROG gamer gunk. Sent them back full steam ahead aboard the return express. Good bye. I use RoG for motherboards, but never again for monitors. Never again. ... show more

  • This is a high-end display with a few small issues.
Style: 27” 5K 180Hz or QHD 330Hz
Overall, this is a high-quality display however I do have a few minor complaints. I’ll start with what I like about it. ASUS built an LCD display with very few compromises, which is impressive given the resolution and price point ($850 when I purchased). I have owed quite a few “high-end” computer monitors over the years and most of the time it feels like there’s something that you have to give up. But this monitor has basically every feature you could want in a gaming display. That being said there are a couple of things that I find a little disappointing. For starters, the IO panel on the back is cumbersome and difficult to plug things into. Even the displayport cable that came with the device was somewhat difficult plug into the port. Second, the dual display mode, switching between 5K and 2k, is a neat feature. However, in 2k, the image quality is slightly worse than what you’d get with a native 2K display. Last off, I personally found the saturation level to be extremely high out of the box. The reds in particular look very blown out on this display. Though, this was easily fixed by adjusting the saturation and color temperature in the settings. In conclusion, I’m happy with my purchase and I would recommend buying it if you’re looking for an overkill PC gaming monitor. ... show more

  • Excellent Resolution and Response
Style: 27” 5K 180Hz or QHD 330Hz
The ASUS ROG Strix 27 inch 5K HDR gaming monitor feels premium in both performance and build. The 5120 x 2880 resolution delivers very sharp text and graphics, making both games and productivity windows look detailed. The 180 Hz refresh rate paired with a 0.3 ms response time keeps motion smooth and reduces blur in fast action. Fast IPS delivers wide viewing angles and rich colors, and support for G-SYNC compatible variable refresh keeps tearing under control when paired with capable GPUs. The dual mode option lets you choose 180 Hz at full 5K or QHD mode at up to 330 Hz which is handy if you want even higher refresh for esports titles. HDR works well for content that supports it, though peak brightness is modest compared with full HDR flagship panels. The integrated lighting on the back looks cool but feels more like flair than a practical feature for most setups. Overall this monitor balances resolution, speed and color performance in a very compelling way. Pros: ~ True 5K resolution yields crisp visuals for games and desktop work ~ High refresh and low response keep motion clear and fluid ~ Dual mode gives flexibility between detail and speed ~ G-SYNC compatible helps smooth gameplay when frame rates vary ~ Solid color performance with Fast IPS panel Cons: ~ LED graphic on back is not useful in everyday use ~ HDR brightness is good but not class leading against top HDR panels ... show more

Good: 5k120hz. Fantastic. I'm using this for work (programming) and text looks incredible. 5k120hz is a good way to spot check that a gui that you're working on isn't totally janky laggy trash. Bad: Got two. Precision 7760 with an rtx a5000 ampere can only drive one at 5k120 and one at 5k60 under linux. They're not as bright (but still bright enough, barely, for a sunlit office) as the apple studio display, or the asus xg27uq/xg27uqr, or the dough/eve spectrum one. I wish there was a glass option instead of matte. Compared to the dough spectrum one, the housing is enormous and the bezel is thick. There's a bunch of goofy "rog" "gamer" rgb garbage slathered all over this thing, but the rgb crap can be turned off. ... show more
