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

Revainrating 3 out of 5

false advertising

The monitor runs at 120Hz with an HDMI cable, but with a DisplayPort cable it goes to 165Hz as advertised. However, you don't have Full HD if you go up to 165Hz - Full HD maxes out at 60Hz. You have to manually select the refresh rate in the NVIDIA Control Panel and only 60Hz is available for the Full HD list. You must select "PC" to select 165Hz.

Pros
  • 100% recommended. Cheaper than many other brands and works great.
Cons
  • Poor color accuracy
