With its 144 Hz 1 ms Quad HD IPS 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’s a real success!

With the TUF VG27AQ, Asus simply offers one of the best 27-inch Quad HD screens for video games. It has all the best that is available today in terms of display technology, with a very responsive IPS panel supporting a very high frequency compatible with both AMD FreeSync and Nvidia G-Sync. The icing on the cake is that these technologies can be combined with the ELMB. In the end, this screen is probably the best for playing, regardless of the type of game.
Strong points
- Reactivity.
- ELMB (black image insertion) works 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).

The Asus TUF Gaming VG279QM is an excellent gaming monitor that is primarily aimed at performance enthusiasts. Well calibrated originally, it lacks a little 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 most efficient TN models. It is a product of choice for cyberathletes. Others will happily turn to the AOC 27G2U, a little less responsive and limited to 144 Hz, but also less expensive.
