One of the best high refresh rate monitors

I bought this a few months ago, and I am so happy I did! The high refresh rate feels amazing, and the colors are actually really good. I have recommended this to a few of my friends, and they bought this same monitor too!

Great Price for Great Features!

After searching extensively for a monitor that would suit me, i stumbled across the VG258QR at my local Micro Center for $50 cheaper than anywhere else online. At 144hz refresh time, this thing tears through all of the games that i play like Destiny 2 and Call of Duty Modern Warfare. A 144hz monitor is essential for the gaming experience, and with the price that i bought it at, this offers g-sync compatibility while not refraining on build quality and increased pricing. If you do not care that the power supply for the monitor is exterior and are fine with using a TN panel, this monitor will work wonders for you!

Designed for intense, fast-paced games, ASUS VG258QR is a 24.5" Full HD gaming display with an ultra-fast 0.5ms response time and blazing 165Hz refresh rate to give you super-smooth gameplay. VG258QR features Adaptive-Sync (FreeSync) technology to eliminate screen tearing and choppy frame rate.

Gamer-centric features like ASUS GamePlus enhances your in-game experience, while GameVisual provides various pre-set display modes to optimize visuals for different types of games.

Speed, speed, and more speed

Lightning-fast 0.5ms response time with ASUS Extreme Low Motion Blur
ASUS VG258QR is the fastest in its class, boasting a 0.5ms response time to eliminate smearing and motion blur. This lets you react instantly to what you see onscreen, especially in fast paced games - allowing you to take corners like a pro race car driver, or get that headshot like a seasoned pro. There's also the ASUS Extreme Low Motion Blur (ELMB) Technology to make objects in motion look even sharper, so gameplay is more fluid and responsive.

Note: 0.5ms response time is the minimum based on internal tests. Response time may vary depending on test conditions.

• Conventional Monitor shows smearing and motion blur while moving fast
• Fast 0.5ms Response Time with ASUS ELMB Technology shows smooth graphics while moving fast

Certified NVIDIA G-Sync Compatible

VG258QR features Adaptive-Sync (FreeSync) technology - it eliminates screen tearing and choppy frame rates to give you seamless visuals and smooth gameplay.

GameFast Input Technology - because milliseconds count
Input lag on an LCD monitor is typically much lower than a TV, and ASUS VG258QR features GameFast Input Technology to further minimize input lag. This technology provides much faster motion delivery so you'll always be up to speed with in-game action at the precise timing you need to respond as quickly as is needed.
