WARNING (PS5 OWNERS)
on December 31, 2020
Posted by: iliketech

This monitor is not capable of 120hz for the PS5. I bought this monitor to use for my PC and PS5, the PS5 does not have 1440p support so you have to use 1080p in the ps5 settings in order use 120hz. However, this monitor does not allow for 1080p 120hz. You can verify this by googling the manual for this monitor and looking at at the timers in specifications section, i wanted to share my experience so you won't have to go through the hassle. I would just like to add for a $579.99 monitor, no 1080p support at 120hz is disgusting.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Couldn't be happier with this purchase. Researching monitors was tedious and after a couple weeks this was what caught my eye. Price is adequate for what you get and the the ratings and reviews are on point. Definitely reccomend.

Fantastic at a reasonable price! Very impressed, no dead pixels or visible bleeding. G Sync works great too.

Best 1440p IPS

Great picture quality, has goodies like ELMB, stand is really nice (I put aside my vivo desk mount from previous monitor) and its not astronomically priced. Really good value here, especially if you can snag it on sale or can find an open box.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Got for my new XBOX SERIES X

I was looking for a new monitor or tv for my new Xbox series x and did some research and found out the with of the top monitor's out now that they do not have some of the key features that this monitor has . Can play 4k at 60hz ever though it's a 1440p. I find 1440p at 120hz is so clean on my Xbox series x.
I would recommend this to a friend!

A figurative ton of options

I replaced my five-year-old Asus 28-inch VA panel with this 27-inch IPS. Going from 60 to 144 refresh rate, and HD to WQHD is rather impressive. And then there are all the screen setting options, maybe too many compared to my old screen. I will be doing more experimenting. I decided to replace the somewhat unimpressive, flimsy stand of this newer monitor with the sturdier stand from the older; four screws and it was done. A perfect fit. The newer monitor's stand looks outdated and cheap and did not place the monitor high enough for my liking. After a few days it works very well. I hope it stays that way. Asus screens rock.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Pas mauvais mais pourrait être mieux...

Bon écran sur papier, 1440p, 165hz (144hz non overclocké), 27", IPS.
Bon, out of the box, les couleurs sur mon écran était lourdement sur-saturées. J'ai du jouer avec les settings pour avoir une image plus réaliste. (Je ne pense pas que ce soit un bon écran pour de l'editing photo/video). Ca a pris un peu de temps avant d'avoir une image réaliste. Aussi, j'ai du BLB (backlight bleed) dans le coin inférieur droit. On le remarque pas trop mais c'est visible dès que le coin inférieur droit affiche une couleur non-blanche/pale :/.
Parfois l'écran 'flicker' quand je le set à 165Hz (je sais que c'est normal mais en même temps pourquoi il te vende le moniteur en vantant son refresh rate de 165Hz si c'est pas vraiment utilisable 100% du temps?)

Aussi, la boite était un peu amochée mais le contenu est bien protégé!

Great monitor

I think this VG27AQ is one of the best monitors for 2560x1440 165hz. I like ELMB-SYNC as well. Love it so far
