Product Information

Continuing our review of Asus monitors of the week, today we have another model from the ROG STRIX series, this time featuring gaming and picture quality capabilities, as well as a few salty pricing.

As a result of all of this, we can see that this display has a better color vibrancy than others in this price range, which is a big benefit for some. The ASUS ROG Strix XG27AQM is yet another 27″ 1440p 240Hz gaming monitor aimed at those after the perfect mixture of high resolution and high refresh rate. The ASUS XG27AQM is a 27-inch display with a 2K resolution (2560 x 1440), indicating that this is a hybrid option while also significantly increasing the monitor’s PPI, resulting in sharp and clear pictures.Next, the ASUS XG27AQM input lag is imperceptible at around 2ms, so you won’t be able to notice or feel any delays. Image quality is assured by an extended gamut that covers over 91% of DCI-P3 as confirmed by our tests. Accuracy is also assured by an enclosed data sheet, but we found some visible gains in quality with calibration and careful selection of picture modes. HDR10 signals are supported with a peak output of over 400 nits and dynamic contrast which takes the ratio up to over 22,000:1. You can use this feature for SDR signals too and see a similarly broad dynamic range. High Dynamic Range (HDR) technology with professional color gamut delivers contrast and color performance that meets DCI-P3 95% color gamut and DisplayHDR™ 400 certification The 1080p resolution is a popular choice for gaming screens, owing to its affordability and compatibility with older graphics cards. would greatly improve visual smoothness, which will benefit not just gamers in their games but also casual users.

In addition, they introduced the HDR 400 function, which will increase the overall contrast and deepen the darks. The ASUS XG27UQ changes that entirely, bringing almost the best possible specs on a 4K screen down to a reachable tier for general PC gamers. When it comes to color fidelity, this display shines in its own right. It has a DCI-P3 97 percent, which is a little far from the required level for accuracy, but it does give rich and vibrant colors on the other hand. The Fast IPS panel, which is generally used in high-end displays, allows for a fast refresh rate while maintaining all of the color accuracy that IPS can give.In general, we preferred this model’s design to that of its ultrawide counterpart; whereas this one exudes a gaming vibe, the ultrawide model can be classified as a casual-looking display owing to its overall aesthetics.
