So, it's the end of this review, and I'll bet you want to hear my final thoughts. I can sum up the next several paragraphs in one sentence: This monitor kicks ass, takes no prisoners, and is one hell of a gaming monitor and would be great for an Eyefinit...
Smoooooth, Slim bezel, GSync technology, 3D Vision 2 support, Ultra Low Motion Blur, Excellent picture, Great gaming, DP 1.2 connection, USB 3.0 functionality
Pricing
When you get down to it, the facts are that even with a TN panel being used for the high refresh rate, the ASUS ROG Swift PG278Q G-Sync monitor delivers great picture quality and truly impressive gaming. I could go on all day long about how smooth each of...
Sturdy stand, 4K resolution, G-Sync compatible, Excellent post-calibration color accuracy
Very expensive, Mediocre out-of-box image quality, Limited monitor controls
Like the Asus PG279Q, the PG27AQ is a monitor that is difficult to compare with others because its feature set is so specific. Its only obvious, direct competitor is the Acer XB280HK, another 4K panel with G-Sync. The Acer holds up against the PG27AQ in most...

Excellent gaming experience, low response times and lag. Support for NVIDIA G-sync and new ULMB mode, Flicker-free backlight, Excellent default setup
Restrictive viewing angles of TN Film technology, Lack of preset modes and some bells and whistles, Limited connectivity with DisplayPort only
We know how excited people were to get a detailed review of this monitor as quickly as possible, so we decided to release this as a full review straight away without making it a paid preview first. If you appreciate the early access to the review and enjo...

You have plenty of options to choose from if you're looking to purchase a gaming monitor. Without a doubt the best option of the 120/144 Hz Full HD models is the Eizo FG2421, which does not only convince in terms of image smoothness, but also in terms o...
Incredible responsiveness, Gameplay completely smooth thanks to GSYNC, A decent design for a gaming monitor, Finally a QHD TN panel
We'd have liked an HDMI port to connect a games console or TV box, even if it is without GSYNC, Pretty high price, No ULMB in 144 Hz mode
Asus has unleashed the first G-SYNC monitor, and it is a beauty. It's also the first QHD TN panel to hit the market, with an excellent refresh rate of 144 Hz. Although its connectivity options could be better, this screen is still perfectly suited to its ...

From the tone of this review, you can probably tell we're excited about G-Sync. It's the first revolutionary display technology we've seen in a very long time. Advances in host and graphics processing performance are so frequent that they're practically p...
