    This is the newest addition to Asus’ ROG line of gaming monitors, the XG27ACS, a more budget-friendly 27” 1440p 180Hz Fast IPS gaming monitor with a claimed 1 millisecond response time and even “GamingAI”. Yeah, the ‘AI’ has leaked into monitors now too… Asus is undercutting everyone - including themselves - with this one coming in at an MSRP of £329, and considering the feature set, it looks like an awfully promising option - but, like, is it? Well, let’s test it and find out!

    Can you Review the XG259QN? It is a more feature rich, and supposedly "Refreshed" model of the PG259QN. It, too, has 20 levels of Overdrive which starkly contrasts the 3 modes the original model had.

    On ASUS website it states '180Hz (above 144Hz)'. When I do a search on "(above 144Hz)" I see results such as 'Overclockable 180Hz (above 144Hz)'.
    Does this mean this monitor has a native refresh rate of 144Hz but ASUS factory overclocked it to 180Hz? On the monitor label itself it just says '180Hz Rapid Refresh Rate'

    You say this can't be used as a USB hub... and while that seems true that's something I was relying on... could i have the computer hooked up VIA display port and then a usb hub hooked up via the USB-C and still achieve this? Per their website "USB Type-C hub supports video transmission in DisplayPort signal; can serve as a USB hub, meaning that you can connect your device to your wired peripherals with clutter-free set-up"

    I'm surprised to see that this monitor doesn't have 10bit (8bit + FRC.) Most monitors it competes, even ones below its price class, that have HDR-capability tends to have it. It's the only glaring feature for me that kinda holds me back from buying it.

    • @Terran343

      in your experience, whats the improve with 10bit?

    • @BenyaminLorit
      @BenyaminLorit 2 місяці тому +1

      @@Terran343 in most common real-world use cases and SDR content consumption, it probably won't impact you in any meaningful way. However, if you are sensitive to colors or do any sort of color work, 10bit makes it so that there's less/no color banding in certain images since it's able to display a lot more hues than 8bit. You can think of it as "color resolution" in a way, so basically, 8bit = 16.7M colors vs 10bit = 1.07B colors. HDR content will also tend to look better on 10bit because of the smoother transition of colors. But again, if you just use your monitor for usual stuff like SDR gaming and streaming video content, you probably wouldn't notice.

    is this another fake hdr like the MSI G274QPF-QD (judging by the lack of a local dimming backlighting)? doesn't seem to have kvm (like the msi or gigabyte which do). MSI has quantum dot. And price wise the asus seems to cost more when i last checked.
    How does the Asus stack up against MSI G274QPF-QD, Gigabyte M27Q-P, Dell G2724D, AOC Q27G3XMN ? in terms of overshoot, hdr performance, latency 🤔 and which out of these would you recommend for FPS gaming and HDR content on desktop windows 11 pc.
