ASUS TUF Gaming 27" 2K HDR Gaming Monitor (VG27AQ) - QHD (2560 x 1440), 165Hz (Supports 144Hz), 1ms, Extreme Low Motion Blur, Speaker, G-SYNC Compatible, VESA Mountable, DisplayPort, HDMI,Black

Upgrading from a 1080p 185Hz monitor to this 1440p 300Hz display was a massive jump in quality. Paired with my RTX 5080, the difference is immediately noticeable — games look sharper, motion is smoother, and the higher refresh rate really shows in fast-paced shooters. Colors look great out of the box, and ELMB Sync makes motion incredibly clean. Even for everyday work, the clarity and smoothness make it hard to go back to anything else. • Sharp 1440p image • Perfect for high-end GPUs • Fast response time • Great for gaming & productivity • Extremely smooth 300Hz

Ordered VG27AQ a few weeks prior and have had zero issues with the screen so far after initial calibration/setup. Zero dead/stuck/bright pixels, lucky! For an IPS screen, it's great to look at (and extremely bright, you can use the monitor at 0 brightness and still see the picture quite well- most of the calibration profiles I've seen leave it at 0). You can see it from all angles very clearly and even from far back. I sit relatively close to the screen with my desk setup, but it's exactly what I wanted as I can only have one monitor on the desk. I have only noticed a little bit of backlight bleed in the lower right corner, but it's a very small area and overall quite acceptable for an IPS screen with such a thin bezel. Have not noticed any IPS glow when sitting dead center or even slightly off (as a note, there is always variation with manufacturing, so some monitors might have either more than mine). I have used it to play both PC and Switch, and it works great for both, no complaints (the speakers are indeed a little weak, but they are only 2 watt and more for function than real use and at least it has speakers to do so). The only unfortunate part in my temporary setup is that the MSI laptop I'm using (GS65 Stealth with RTX 2060) combined I suggest/recommend expecting to just use fullscreen settings with games on the Asus (I suspect it's more the laptop than the screen, once I build my new desktop I will confirm if this is still the case with a desktop 1070). The refresh rate is excellent, one of my older screens is an old 1080p Dell VA panel from around 2014 and the refresh rate is around 7ms so I would sometimes miss quick reaction mechanics in some games despite the nice screen quality otherwise with what it offered. I had zero build quality issues on my Asus, everything in the box looked to be in order and all included hardware was perfect and complete. For the price and what the monitor brings, it is definitely a good value as long as there aren't any pixel or manufacturing issues. There are better monitors with picture quality, but usually those are VA panels which have their own set of characteristics and a 3 year warranty (the comparable LG 27GL850 only has a 1 year warranty which is short when compared to their competitors like Asus and Acer).

I bought this monitor for $300 over a year ago. It is not my main gaming display, it is the monitor I use for my competitive games like Overwatch, Marvel Rivals, Call of Duty, etc for my PC. On that front, it is excellent for the price. 260hz screen allows for high fps gaming. It also handles motion rather well. It resolves motion rather well and does not blur textures with quick mouse movements, I did not have to do much color accuracy editing out of box which was nice as well. Picture is good, even in games where I do care for image quality a bit more. The last thing i am impressed by is how simple the stand was to attach and how sturdy the monitor feels as a whole. I bought this for high refresh rate shooters, but it is a pretty good budget 1440p monitor. 5 stars for my use case and for exceeding my expectations elsewhere.

This ASUS TUF 27" 2K monitor is an absolute beast for gaming. The 2560x1440 resolution strikes the perfect balance between sharp visuals and high frame rates, and the HDR support really brings colors and lighting to life. Games look vibrant, crisp, and incredibly immersive. The 165Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time make gameplay buttery smooth — whether I’m playing FPS titles or open-world adventures, there’s zero ghosting or screen tearing (especially with G-Sync/FreeSync enabled). It makes a noticeable difference in both competitiveness and overall enjoyment. Build quality is excellent, with a sturdy stand, adjustable height, and thin bezels for a sleek setup. The on-screen display is easy to navigate, and it has plenty of input options for PC, console, or work use. Whether you're a casual gamer or a serious competitor, this monitor delivers stunning visuals and top-tier performance. Easily one of the best upgrades I’ve made to my setup.

The ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQM5A delivers outstanding performance with its sharp 1440P resolution, ultra smooth 300Hz refresh rate, and Fast IPS panel. Gaming feels extremely responsive and fluid, making it a great choice for competitive and fast paced games. The image quality is excellent and the monitor feels well built overall. However, it did arrive with one dead pixel, which was disappointing. It also makes a cracking noise at times, which I understand can be normal for new monitors as the materials expand and contract, but it is still noticeable. Despite these issues, I paid 224 during a Black Friday sale for a monitor that usually costs around 400, which makes it an incredible value. Because of the great performance and huge discount, I would rate this monitor four stars. It is a great buy for the price, but the minor quality concerns prevent it from being perfect.

High quality monitor, doing great after 2 years of use, was extremely easy to set up and I didn't realize that it came with its own speakers which, while aren't the greatest quality, have been nice for a quick need of speakers.

The display is amazing for it has a feature set to customise the brightness and contrast with shadows and highlights which i've never had on a display before so all my games pictures and videos look stunning. It's incredibly bright, it is a bit too intense at the highest settings which is great for shade range.

This monitor is so good in overall i do recommend it

الشاشة جبارة على سعرها و الخصم اوووووووف ياشيخ والله شكرا

Everything works so far.

Lo compre por debajo de los 6,000 pesos mexicanos y por ese precio la calidad de imagen, la nitidez, los colores son excepcionales. En la descripcion solo pone que tiene amd freesync (yo necesitaba Gsync) y mi sorpresa cuando llego fue que si lo tenia, asi que muy recomendada, sin pixeles muertos buena calidad de construccion por menos de 6,000 pesos y opciones de reescalar a 4K, yo lo uso en 1440 para jugar a todos los juegos competitivos a 240Hz y muy complacido con el desempeño
