ASUS TUF Gaming 27" 2K HDR Monitor (VG27AQ1A) - WQHD (2560 x 1440), IPS, 170Hz (Supports 144Hz), 1ms, Extreme Low Motion Blur, Speaker, G-SYNC Compatible, VESA Mountable, DisplayPort, HDMI

Works but it has an area of defective pixels, easy to see when the screen is black. There’s a discolouration around the area and when the screen is black it clearly shows an area of blue dots. Less blue dots visible with the naked eye but still a concerning amount

Not a bad monitor and certainly has led to a sharper PC gaming experience. 2 frustrations: (1) the monitor stand is functional and although it has good tilt / pivot functionality the ability to change the screen height is limited; (2) lack of operating instructions within the box to understand how to change display settings. My first impression of the monitor wasn't the best. The default display settings look dreadful (in my opinion) and the monitor buttons have limited functionality and ability to change these. Without operating instructions I ended up searching online for a manual (which I found) but this still didn't help change the display settings. By chance I found an ASUS widget which I downloaded and this did the trick - enabling me to access the display settings and customise. My frustration is why didn't ASUS include some kind of link to this really important information in the box? It could have saved me a couple of really frustrating hours and certainly hasn't endeared me to the brand.

In terms of quality it is good, however when it comes to frame rate the website description is inaccurate. Website says that the max framerate is 170 however the actual monitor can only go up to 144.

Upgrading from 60hz monitor to this was a huge difference. I like the screen the colors the build quality the equipments everything is so good. I received the package with little tears but overall it was great. I had one issue when overclocking to 170hz the monitor will start flickering every couple of minutes only while connecting 2 monitors. After a couple of research and adjustments I changed the second monitor DP cable to a thicker and stronger DP cable and it was fixed. The brightness on the monitor is more then any gamer needs especially if you play in a dark room it’s perfect. Overall it’s a great monitor and if you can buy it during sales it’s a perfect deal.

The ASUS TUF Gaming 27" 2K HDR Monitor (VG27AQ1A) is exceptional. The QHD (2560 x 1440) resolution with IPS panel provides crisp, vibrant visuals, and the 170Hz refresh rate (supports 144Hz) ensures smooth gameplay. With a 1ms response time, G-SYNC compatibility, and Extreme Low Motion Blur, it delivers an impressive gaming experience. Built-in speakers and VESA mountability add convenience. Highly recommended for gamers looking for performance and quality!

I bought this to go with my Skytech Nebula PC and so far the quality has been exceptional. There is a very quick response for gaming and it is very vibrant. The adjustable monitor angle is useful if you are thinking of buying a second monitor. Perfect size for a full field of view when sitting 2-3 feet away.

One of the best monitors i have ever purchased till now i had it since almost 3 years , it’s have tried to get an OLED monitor because this was old but i realized there was not big difference from this one and the OLED, this monitor is great from response time to good colours to great design great quality everything about this is amazing i even refunded the OLED and kept this as a main monitor recommend 10/10 dont hesitate to get it
