Although I can't upload photos at the moment it is quite beautiful to behold. I love the fact that it has multiple ports for (2) HDMI and a Display Port that let me plug in all my games which leads me to their awesome wire management setup. The wires can be setup to go through the stand of the computer to the back of your pc which reduces the visuals of my wires. Other than that the different pre-installed visual setting such as FPS mode, RPG mode and other setting gives a wide range of things to do while I am gaming or just using the computer for any other task.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent refresh rate, feature set, styling. Fantastic display. I wish there was a second DisplayPort input or USB-C input / upstream... The power on logo still uses the old ROG eye logo as well.
The stand is very good and I like the styling, but it does complicate using a VESA mount.
Despite these nit-picks, it's still a phenomenal display. 170 hz is reliable even though it is technically overclocking, I have had no issues. It is a reasonable refresh rate because at high/max settings 2560x1440, even my strix 3090 and 5950x don't push high end games past that. There is little to gain with 240/360hz unless you're playing something like CSGO @ 1080p

I love this monitor. High refresh rate, vivid colors and very responsive. One of the best 1440p gaming monitors you can buy right now.

Best monitors for 2k gaming.
I wish I knew how to overclock them though :(. Asus doesn't explain how to overclock the monitor at all

Monitor brinks out colors and contract equivalent to my 4K monitor. I'm very impressed.

Big upgrade from a 15 year old monitor which was a 1080 at 60 Hz. This monitor came with all of the cables and was easy to setup and get running. Wish it had a presetting with everything turned on. sRGB color space will be useful in Photoshop.

Upgraded from my ASUS ROG Strix XG279Q 27” HDR Gaming Monitor, 1440P WQHD, though I still use it as a second monitor. The display on this is amazing. I love the proximity sensor as well. I can't say enough good things about this monitor. It's a little spendy, but you get what you pay for.
