Review on ASUS VG278QR: Experience Ultimate Gaming with Compatible ๐ŸŽฎ DisplayPort, 165Hz Refresh Rate, Low Blue Light, and More! by Jorge Cleveland

Revainrating 5 out of 5

165 Hz update AND 0.5 ms response!?!? The dream of first person shooters! (former CSS specialist)

Get an exceptional product at an insanely low price! After reading some of the reviews I got concerned and thought I was unlucky to get dead pixels or brightness/color settings that weren't what I expected. But it was all for nothing! I've always been a huge supporter and fan of ASUS and once again I wasn't disappointed in the slightest. [I used to play Counter-Strike: Source with the best teams and players (ie, but that hasn't diminished my competitive edge. So my need for a quality monitor with high refresh rates and low response times without breaking the bank was the main goal for a monitor.] It's insanely fast, personally for 60-75-85 Hz monitors it was HUGE (144 < 165 Hz) [21 fps difference] makes it even sharper.) It also has a 0.5ms response time ( exceptionally close to a CRT monitor), which is huge for an FPS compared to industry standards of 1.0-5.0ms. a player who relies on reaction time. So it wins on this one, but then it goes WAY BEYOND the typical $250 price range?!? SOLD OUT AND HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! - 165Hz > 144Hz and below - 0.5ms response time > 1.0ms, typical monitors don't go below 1ms - $250?>$350 (cheaper and better than most) Someone at ASUS is crazy for them Sell less than $350 because you won. got nothing better
