Amazing Monitor!

I love this monitor. It was my first monitor with increased refresh rate (144hz) and it is amazing. In addition to my gaming looking so much better at the high FPS, the overall picture quality is flat out awesome. I highly recommend this, and plan on getting a second on myself soon for a dual display setup. Again, I love this monitor.

Love this monitor

I bought this back in July to replace a 60hz monitor and I am extremely happy with my purchase. Not only is it a slim design, the display is great for my gaming. I've recommended this product to two friends already. I also love that Asus is giving a 90 day warranty extension for writing reviews for their product.

Designed for intense, fast-paced games, ASUS VG278Q is a 27" Full HD gaming display with an ultra-fast 1ms response time and blazing 144Hz refresh rate to give you super-smooth gameplay. VG278Q 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 1ms response time with ASUS Extreme Low Motion Blur
ASUS VG278Q is the fastest in its class, boasting a 1ms 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.

Incredible 144Hz refresh rate
With an astonishing 144Hz refresh rate, fast-moving visuals pose no problem for VG278Q. There's no frustrating lag, so you get the upper hand in first person shooters, racers, real-time strategy and sports titles.

Adaptive-Sync technology for smooth gameplay
VG278Q 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 VG278Q 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.

Gamer-centric features

ASUS-exclusive GamePlus technology
ASUS VG278Q features the ASUS-exclusive GamePlus hotkey to give you in-game enhancements that help you get more out of your game. This function is co-developed with pro-gamer input, allowing them to practice and improve their gaming skills. A crosshair overlay provides four different crosshair options, so you can select the one that best suits the shooter you're currently playing.

ASUS-exclusive GameVisual technology
ASUS GameVisual Technology has seven pre-set display modes to optimize visuals for different types of content. This unique feature can be easily accessed through a hotkey or the On Screen Display (OSD) settings menu.

Racing
Reduces input lag for real time racing and fast gaming experience.

FPS
High contrast settings enhance the visibility even in dark scenes to clearly see your enemies.

sRGB
Ideal settings for viewing photos and graphics online.

Rich connectivity options, a narrow bezel design
ASUS VG278Q has extensive connectivity options, including dual-link DVI-D, DisplayPort 1.2 and HDMI(v1.4) port, so you can hook it up to a wide array of multimedia devices. It has a super-narrow 1cm bezel ideal for an immersive and panoramic gaming setup.

Flicker-Free technology
Flicker-Free technology reduces flicker to give you a comfortable gaming experience. This minimizes instances of eyestrain and other potentially damaging eye ailments when you're embroiled in long, drawn-out gaming sessions.

Ultra-Low Blue Light technology

You can access and select four different filter settings onscreen easily through the OSD menu or DisplayWidget UI to find the best one that suits the task at hand.
