  • Good quality for the price, solid monitor.
Style: 27" QHD 170Hz G-SYNC
Works with vesa but the mounts are a bit awkward. The monitor is so light it doesn't need much to hold it. Great color great quality picture for a great price. Most playing video games on this and it works great.

  • Nice display
Style: 27" QHD 180Hz G-SYNC
A solid display, supporting up to 185hz refresh rate in clean 1440p. The colors are truly vibrant and easy on the eyes, makes watching shows or gaming a better experience. 10/10 would recommend this monitor.

Great monitor , nice size splendid graphics . My only complaint is the internal speakers are not that great , not most people use external speakers so I’m not going to knock off a star for this because I still love this monitor . Just wanted peolle to know if that’s a selling point . Now granted I’ve only had it for a week , so like some speakers do it takes tien to break em in sorta . Either way , great price for this ... show more

  • Awesome PC Display!
Style: 27" QHD 180Hz G-SYNC
Beautiful display!!! So many built-in function options in the GamePlus menu such as FPS Counter, Crosshair, and even a Display Alignment setting to adjust corner to corner offset in case it seems off a bit but upon playing around with it it is already set nicely by default. The 1440p resolution is so crisp, also has very vibrant colors, and the true blacks in-game is really good! The default brightness was a bit high but I changed that withing the Windows 11 display settings. Very impressive performance coming from the 180Hz refresh rate blew me away! The 27" screen was perfect for my small corner desk setup. Set up was a breeze with the DP cable that was included in the box and simple to attach the stand. I really like the futuristic and rugged look of the line of TUF Gaming products and matches well with the other PC parts I combined such as the Motherboard, GPU, Mouse, Keyboard, Mouse pad, and cooling fans on my system. I highly recommend this item if you are looking for a smaller size but powerful and price worthy display. Thank you, ASUS!!! ... show more

  • Great monitor with minor flaws
Style: 27" QHD 180Hz G-SYNC
I bought this monitor to upgrade from another ASUS display that I bought 9 years ago (ASUS MX259H 25") which is still alive and kicking. First off the picture quality seems excellent. It has the low blue-light features that I need for work, and for gaming the response times are great, as is the picture quality (after a few adjustments). The step up from 1080p to 1440p is extremely noticeable. I've had no dead pixels, and noticed no light bleed. There is slight IPS glow (which is normal) but it is some of the least noticeable I've seen on any IPS display I've owned. Brightness maxes out at 250 nits, which may not be bright enough for a true HDR experience, but it's otherwise plenty in my opinion. I use this in a room with a lot of sunlight and have no issues. I'm pretty thrilled with the image quality. I used the VESA mounting holes to put this on a stand and had no issues whatsoever on that front. They were easily accessible. My main knocks on this display are that the stand lacks much in the way of adjustability (if you plan on using the included stand) and the OSD (on-screen display) for changing settings is a bit cumbersome. Everything is controlled by 4 buttons and a small joystick on the back of the right side of the monitor. It works well enough, but everything takes longer than it would if there were labeled buttons on the front of the screen, or even just some menu shortcuts. For example, what should be simple tasks like changing the speaker volume or switching HDMI inputs take clicking around far more in the menus than they should. That's all that keeps this from being a 5-star display for me. I got this on sale but even if I paid MSRP this would be a great display for the price. ... show more

  • Fast, bright, crisp, and well priced for a 2K monitor.
Style: 27" QHD 180Hz G-SYNC
What a monitor. So, I wanted a higher DPI monitor for a while now and did a lot of comparison shopping. Asus, Acer, Dell, MSI, Samsung etc. all of them were fair game. So, here's why I chose this one. 1st price to resolution. Out of all the 2K monitors this one had the best price to resolution point. 2nd I wanted a high response rate as I do play games, and dang does this monitor deliver. 3rd i wanted a refresh rate that was at least 120Hz, this goes up to 170Hz? if you push it. I stick to 144 and never miss a beat so that extra overhead is nice to know it's there for whatever reason. The color gamut is great for everything I do, but I'm not a photographer or a photo editor so all I can say is, the colors look really nice and sharp with no washing out. The brightness is great. I've never gone to 100% brightness and it's perfectly lit in a normal interior situation no matter the time of day. It pretty much puts all my previous flat panel monitors to shame and has a lot of features that I may never use, but are "nice to haves". Really, it's a tremendous monitor and has just made me incredibly satisfied as buyer. ... show more

Style: 27" QHD 170Hz G-SYNC
I have been using for 6 months as my primary monitor, it’s been great! Stand is a bit strange to get used to as there is no height adjustment, but the picture and quality of the actual monitor unit is great!

  • Super crisp 👏
Style: 27" QHD 180Hz G-SYNC
Really good monitor, small so it fits in most areas with ease and it's built in speakers are pretty good! Everything looks amazing. My only thing which could just be a complete user error is that my screen sometimes flashes a bit. Otherwise it's perfect!
