ASUS VG259QM 24.5" 1920X1080 DisplayPort HDR Gaming Monitor, 280Hz, Flicker-Free, Pivot, Tilt, Height Adjustments Review

- Good color accuracy in delivery condition. There was nothing to adjust other than the obscenely high brightness that every monitor seems to have these days. ELMB is surprisingly good, although it seems to block overdrive. If I had to guess, it would be 60 acceleration, since that's the monitor's default setting. I've only heard bad things about the ELMB from reviews of other models, so I'm glad to see that it's at least a little useful here. There's no grainy text or anything that has plagued

In general, considering the price, the monitor is quite good. Response times for IPS are decent and input lag at 240/280 Hz is low. But there are a few annoying things: 1. Input lag at 60Hz is ridiculous. Rtings measured 35ms at 60Hz, meaning this monitor is unusable at 60Hz and more than three times that of most gaming monitors (10ms or less). Obviously no one buys gaming monitors to use at 60Hz, but I would like at least 60Hz to be usable as that is the default display mode on every single…

So I just upgraded my ASUS VG248QE to VG258QM with a 0.5Hz TN panel. I thought the hardware unboxing (I think) noticed that the IPS panel didn't quite handle inserting black borders (ELMB), which is an improved feature that I used on my VG248QE. In case you didn't know, previous 144Hz monitors in 2013 had an additional 120Hz mode that was primarily used for 3D glasses. do you remember them Yes. So if you hack it, you might have this thing called "Light Booster" that gamers thought worked to…

If you press Alt+Tab, the refresh rate changes from 280 to 144 or 85. It's really annoying when you're streaming or switching windows. My first came completely broken, my replacement was fine until about two days ago. I will go back and look for an alternative. I'm upset because I endorsed Asus and it left me with a bad taste in their quality control. EDIT: To fix the Alt+Tab issue, run games in borderless fullscreen. Rating changed from 2 to 4 stars. The monitor is excellent in terms of image…

The monitor is great for gaming, the only thing I noticed is that the colors don't stand out as much as on my previous monitor. I've been playing around with the color settings on my monitor and desktop configuration, but my crosshair seems to blend in with the background much better. I've tried increasing the digital vibrancy, saturation, contrast, etc. but still encountered the same issue. Don't get me wrong, looks good. It's just that every crosshair color I use blends more than I'm used to.

After a surprisingly extensive search for the best monitor I could find, this was probably the only monitor without harsh reviews. It was on the lower end of what I expected to pay but wow! That's so pleasant! The colors are perfect, the picture quality is excellent. I have 24.5 inches for more pixel density, so I can't speak for 27 inches. Highly recommended!

I ordered this monitor to add to my dual monitor setup. I already had two of these monitors but needed a third for work as two monitors just didn't fit. Outside of work I use the monitors for gaming and streaming and they are fantastic.

That's two stuck pixels. They are not noticeable when gaming, watching videos or working. You really have to look to see them. But I know they're there and it's annoying. I didn't send it back because it works great and isn't worth the time and hassle.

The screen works great and since it has G-Sync it basically adjusts itself. One thing I noticed is that the blacks are a lot darker than on my old monitor, which is really nice.

Okay, I realize I switched from a 27-inch 60Hz monitor to this one, so here's my take: it's surprisingly better! It's not even a comparison, 60Hz is rubbish when you see what that looks like. If you have 144hz now. Monitor at this point it's probably not a big leap, but if you have a 60Hz monitor and don't already have a 144, go for this one! it's 1080p, your cpu and gpu combo can really deliver frames. even with Nvidia's latest RTX 3000 cards, 4K games are still not playable. not like that…

The monitor is a very clear, fast and very smooth gaming experience. The IPS panels show more detail than my old VA 32" 1440 panel which is playing at 164 fps.

As with many others, quality assurance is really poor on ASUS monitors. I ordered two and one had to be returned. Fortunately, the exchange works great. I bought the add-on with a four-year warranty (which I highly recommend). If you plug them in, download some trial software and really test it to make sure you change all the different screen settings, as sometimes the problem only occurs in the extreme settings ranges, but that just means they end up appearing in your regular settings in the…

This device meets the expectations and corresponds to the technical description of the manufacturer. Unfortunately, it suffers from several bugs. It takes too long to turn on the device after waking it up from sleep or sleep mode. From time to time it will stop displaying the image for a few seconds regardless of whether the computer is actively used or not. Eventually the monitor had a "little seizure" and started flickering for about a minute. It stopped with a frozen ghost image of the last…

To be honest, a perfect monitor with no flaws. Please note that the monitor has a maximum frequency of 240Hz, you have an overclocking option that you need to enable by looking at the monitor settings (one of the buttons on the monitor) that supports up to 280Hz with only DisplayPort, HDMI only gives 240Hz. . The colors are beautiful, there are many settings for brightness, contrast and RGB, as well as customization of profiles. Personally, if you are a hardcore gamer with a PC running at 240+…

I plugged it in and found it perfect for what I needed, but found there was either a scratch or a few dead pixels in the corner of the screen. Can't tell what it is as it looks like hair but don't go away, it's small enough not to be a problem but big enough to be a nuisance if I notice it.

My experience with this monitor so far has been very good. There's nothing wrong with the pixels themselves. But I was very upset today when I found out when I flashed the headlights and saw a scratch on the monitor screen. This review seems petty as there is nothing wrong with the monitor and I didn't notice it and it's basically impossible to see unless the monitor is pitch black with a flash. Before anyone asks a question, I'm 150% sure this scratch isn't mine. I took care of it a lot…

TLDR on the bottom Considering the entry price point for ultra wide monitors, I was excited about the price of this monitor and the features it offers. I started with an IPS display that was about half the price and was shocked by how much I downgraded it. feel on par with my previous 16:9. Two notable issues were red-green halos and image quality. When trying to tweak it, my main concern was to reduce the red/green halos. I've heard that VA panels are prone to severe ghosting, but hovering…

This monitor is great, it has a high refresh rate and 0.5ms response time. Note, however, that you may need to tweak the settings a bit to get accurate colors. But otherwise the monitor is perfect.

The monitor has a decent brightness and corresponds to its frame rate. The picture quality isn't the best, but the monitor's advantage is its gaming capabilities. I had to return this product because the screen kept going dark while playing and while working. Good monitor for the price, but after a defect I decided to switch to a monitor with a lower frame rate but better picture quality.

I've had this monitor for a few weeks now and it's great so far. No dead pixels, stuck pixels and factory backlight. Pros - I did quite a bit of research before making this purchase and I can tell you that it's definitely worth the under $300 price tag. IMO, even at $400 this monitor would be worth the money. Colors worked right out of the box, no complaints although I'm not an expert when it comes to color accuracy. There is absolutely no backlight glare, which is typical for IPS panels…
