Good deal – The lcd screen for the Asus TUF VG27AQ “5 star” computer at € 347.79

With its IPS Quad HD 144 Hz 1 ms panel, the Asus TUF VG27AQ is one of the first monitors on the market to support black image insertion with a dynamic refresh rate; and it is a real success!

With the TUF VG27AQ, Asus offers quite simply one of the best 27-inch Quad HD screens for video games. It has all the best in terms of display technology today, with a very responsive IPS panel supporting a very high frequency compatible with both AMD’s FreeSync and Nvidia’s G-Sync. Best of all, these technologies can be combined with ELMB. In the end, this screen is probably the best game for gaming, regardless of the type of game.

Strong points

• Reactivity.
• ELMB (black image insertion) functional with FreeSync and G-Sync.
• Image well calibrated by default.
• Good contrast for an IPS panel.
• Neat ergonomics.
• HDR compatibility.

Weak points

• No USB hub.
• No gamma adjustment (which is however very good by default).

As an alternative

The Asus TUF Gaming VG279QM is an excellent gaming monitor aimed primarily at performance enthusiasts. Well calibrated originally, it lacks a bit of contrast and a USB hub to be perfect. It is today the most responsive IPS monitor on the market and remains the only one capable of competing with the highest performing TN models. It is a product of choice for cyberathletes. Others will gladly turn to the AOC 27G2U, a little less responsive and limited to 144 Hz, but also less expensive.
