ASUS TUF Gaming 27” 1440P Monitor (VG27AQL3A) - QHD (2560 x 1440), 180Hz, 1ms, Fast IPS, Extreme Low Motion Blur SYNC, G-SYNC Compatible, Freesync Premium, 130% sRGB, DisplayHDR 400, 3 Year Warranty

Incredible build quality, great OSD and Game feature like FPS overlay and crosshairs for those realistic shooters. Absolutely incredible colors, view angle is great, zero stuck or dead pixels. My only complaint would be it's not HDMI 2.1, but it's not necessary for this display. HDR is a gimmick anyways, but if anyone is planning on using this for the Xbox Series X you can't use HDR unless you're in 4k. I was a bit disappointed to discover this but honestly I dint really care.All in all and amazing monitor, worth every penny even though I would consider this a budget screen.

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.

Asus did a really good job with this monitor, it’s quick and easy to setup, the refresh rate is unbeatable for this price especially since this is a 2k monitor. Settings are adjustable and come with added features. Comes with display and hdmi cable. Really impressed. Make sure to register the device on Asus’ website.

This monitor is great. I have an OLED tv, laptop, and iPad. When, I wanted a second monitor for my work, school work, and music production the first thing I looked at were the OLEDs. The ASUS OLED is $650 - which honestly seems pretty high in 2025. When I came to my senses, I decided I wanted the best monitor on the tightest budget possible. This screen does everything I need it to including some light gaming and looks great. It’s been wonderful having some extra space to work with and it only cost me $200 out the door. I don’t regret it at all and I probably saved $500 going with the TUF over the OLED.

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.

honestly great for my ps5, it’s very smooth, also the speakers aren’t as good but they’re pretty average, and loud for the most part!

Really nice looking monitor to watch videos on and easy setup, great build quality also gets 120hz on any game that supports it price isn’t bad and while being big it doesn’t take up that much space as well I recommend!

I'll be blunt with my criticism. ELMB (Extreme Low Motion Blur) wont work at the same time as HDR and forces your screen to get dimmer. Do not consider this a valid feature to base your decision on.However, it's an IPS screen with 1ms response. It already has excellent performance regarding blur and ghosting. It's my first HDR10 monitor and it absolutely delivers in this department. Dark areas of games still feel dark but I can see detail. My first test with it was The Last of Us Remastered on PC. Felt like a vast improvement over standard color space and contrast I had on my last monitor.I've detected no latency issues in online games either. I was able to get it on sale for $180 but it still feels like a great deal at $220.Like most people, I feel 27" is perfect size for a display sitting two feet from my face. Setup was very simple. The mount is a no-brainer and frees up a lot of desk space compared with the lazy susan base on my previous Dell. It has hidden VESA mounts if you need them. Enabling HDR in the monitor settings locks you out of most other settings (you wont miss them) so I'd say setup is very easy. It plays well with reference color mode in Nvidia Control Panel, further minimizing setup.
