I picked up this monitor a couple months ago and I couldn't be happier. I mostly play competitive shooters, But I do play some other titles like warzone and Apex. Although I don't hit 360 Hz in the battle royale I most certainly get 300hz or more with my current setup.
How much did you pay? Glad you love it!
$1105 taxes included.
Definitely expensive but I love It.
Waste
Good for you I'm happy with my 60hz hp monitor with Intel uhd gpu 😄 playing all the old games.
What GPU and CPU do you use ?
I think people looking at this monitor in the first place already own a 4090 or atleast a 4080 in most cases already.
The PG27AQN has a few important advantages compared to the typical 240Hz oleds:
- It has more Hz, which is always good for esports.
- It can also be used for productivity without worrying about the god damned burn-in.
- It has ULMB 2, which gives an unrivaled motion clarity.
Hm, I have read that qd oled produce eye strain, that is no go for me so I try this one asus.
@@TheHappychrisinah bruh it should be the opposite because it doesn’t flicker at lower brightness levels
Let’s go new video! I’ve been looking for a monitor
I picked up the LG27GP950 just over a year ago. Still my favourite.
Finally a review I've been waiting for these monitors since the RTX 40 series came out let's go!
Can you do a video on the best or low, medium, and high productive monitors please. For regular desktop usage
Right when this was posted I was looking for one😂
Perfect timing 👍
This review missed a information about the monitor which might make up your mind in favour. This is a badly researched review.
I guessed 1200 usd, was close.
But I have a 4k 144hz 28" monitor and don't wanna go lower res. So my next in a few years I hope will be a 8k 144hz or 10k 100hz or something along those lines.
I had one before you 😂. It's a great monitor though. I can't live without it now
i agree, im still going with the dell alienware dwf when i get the money.
My pg27aqn just arrived today, bought this monitor specifically for Apex legends. can’t wait to run this bad boy🔥🔥🔥
you might not get 1440p 360hz with Apex legends. 360hz is more for the tactical shooter player.
@@CodeVenomSnakes I’ve been playing on this monitor for about a week now and Boyy this monitor is insane 😍 Surprisingly I am easily be able hit 360 fps but with 1080p, however on 1440p I’m still getting over 240 fps.
@ZohairAhmedR what's your pc specs ?
idc about resolution, im currently using an Asus TUF VG259Q 1080p280Hz monitor. (I will soon be getting the Pixio PX259 Prime S 9A 1080p 360Hz) to replace my current Main Monitor and the Asus TUF will go downstairs. in some games I get over the 280Hz OC (Running a 5950X/ 3080Ti FE)
Ulmb 2 is a game changer for this monitor I love it so much
Even for valorant, most of the pros use 240 instead of 360.
It's simply not necessary, even at the very highest level.
I had this monitor and went and played on oled at my buddy's has and then took 360hz back straight back to best buy and replaced it with 240 hz oled I'm getting 6 to 8 kills a game now was only 3 or 4 and the picture is beyond we xplainable
oleds are pretty awesome. which model did you pick up?
Would be superb to play Runescape 3 on it. Yew and oak trees popping up at 360-400 fps must be the IMAX experience of gaming.
🤣 anything less than 360 hz monitor for runescape is exp-waste
High hz 1440p is the sweet spot for my setup, 4K is just to demanding 1440 i keep a lot of frames and don’t have to lower settings
A RTX 4090 can handle 4K higg refresh rate for comperetive e-sport titles with ease.
@PcCentric How many years would it take for a 4k mini-led 500hz monitor to be availible
now were talking
Have you reviewed the PG27AQDM?
Its 2023, the standard for gaming monitors(affordable) should now be 144hz 4k resolution.. just like how games shouldn't be 30fps anymore on console
Right there with you.
Considering takes 4090 to get close yea sure bud
@djb presents that tells me gaming technology is moving at a snails pace
@habs4life41 i mean is it? With all the ai talk and stuff going on? Could they make affordable 4k 144hrtz cards idk id assume so, jesus christ look at size of a 4090 literally equivelent of putting a ps5 in ur pc, they def need to reinvent the wheel, start putting all that power on little chips
Size of ps5 i mean
Since buying a 42" OLED, and not playing fast-twitch FPS shooters anymore, LCD is dead to me. Even more so for that ridiculous price tag.
Do you take orders to build a PC. Many thanks in advance
I just had an eye test. Had new prescription glasses delivered. Every monitor i own and looking out the window is amazing now. Wont need a
360hz
i got me the LG 45GR95QE, which is the ultrawide version at 45". It has a low PPI at just 3440x1440 but i dont notice it much and having a lower resolution also means the 240 frames are easier to drive. I think this monitor strikes a perfect balance for an "ambitioned ethusiast casual prosumer". It has nice colors, it is immersive, has great pixel response time and deliver 240 frames to give you a bit of an edge. That means it is great for all types of games, like Racing or Adventures but also fast paced FPS like Call of Duty or Battlefield.
I get your point that you must be a good gamer to take advantage of the high refresh rate, but on the other hand, there is something nice about higher refresh rates mainly motion clarity and input response. I wouldn't scoff at someone for going for this monitor for non- esports titles at all. Retro Gamers who play on a crt will tell you that the biggest reason they keep their CRTs around is the 0 input delay. CRT's have the fastest response time becasue of the way they are built is completely different to that of LCD or OLED. When i play retro stuff on a crt it feels amazing because you press a button and it almost feels like the character responds a millisecond before you press it. This probably becasue being used to LCDs you have adjusted to input delay so when going to a CRT or a 360hz monitor it really feels so amazing.
ok
My monitor's also my TV, streaming, sports. etc., screen. 1440, 165 HZ, 32", and I paid less than half that for it. I'd consider springing for an OLED if they come out with one that matches my refresh rate at a decent price, but for regular gaming and general use, can't see how this could be worth it. My reflexes are always going to be the bottleneck anyway.
name?
Hi dude
I just wanna say your vids are so coool but its abit annoying there is no 60fps on them ❤❤
I'm currently enjoying a 3440x1440 21:9 IPS 180hz monitor. I may be in the market for a 4k monitor next time since HDMI 2.1 is out. I'm just torn between a OLED vs IPS display.
Go OLED or Mini LED
I hate Ultrawide, ruined immersion on most games because they were intended to be viewed in 16:9 as the developers intended. You don't explore dark narrow tunnel with a wide ass aspect ratio and pretend to be immersed by that. Good for competitive shooters not for regular gaming.
Honestly, I want both 21:9 and 16:9 monitors.
Very nice monitor!
Im radiant in valorant, and this one+backlight strobing was huge. Every time i hold an angle with ads, i can get a kill. Perfect monitor imo. 😊
Did yours have any dead pixels? Been hearing that’s been a big issue with this one.
@@gamingsoup563 nope
Have you ever used an oled?
For esports players this monitor is a must-buy, otherwise I would say the OLED is better
5:55 yo bro but how about gsync?
Me watching this on my 1080p 59.68hz monitor on TH-cam 720p quality..
2:48 this is true of any piece of hardware that is designed for competitive use. An ultra high refresh rate display and NASA spec PC won’t turn a bad player into a good one but they will allow an already excellent player to be even better.
IMHO, if you have a PC that can drive a display like this, I would rather have a larger 4K display with real HDR. That’s why I went with the PG32UQX to pair with my 4080. 144HZ is plenty for when I do play the occasional shooter or racing game but the superior image quality and MiniLED backlighting makes every game look so much better.
how do you mount this monitor to a wall
I have the LG Ultragear 32GP850-B.AEK..
Running it at 160hz 1440p, I wouldn't upgrade as I see no point.
I set it to 160hz in games for Freesync
I'm so close to buying the 27'' version. Looks like an amazing monitor for a fraction of the price. Cheers.
I went from 1080p 144hz to 1080p 240hz to 1440 165hz to 4k 144hz.... I could go back from 1440p to 1080p, but after 4k, both look horrible, and 1080p I can't even see people in apex anymore
Unless you’re damn near a pro esports competitor, 360Hz just isn’t necessary. 240 is already pushing that line if we’re being honest, but 360 is just jumping out the window lol
Ulmb2 changed everything
I'm currently under IPS 144HZ 1440P. Was wondering to get something new, I do both single and multiplayer games, was wondering how shockingly different 240HZ and 360HZ would feel.
Watch the “ is 240hz better “ video from Linus Tech tips. It’s definitely worth watching if you are into super high refresh rate gaming.
Get the OLED PG27AQDM instead, still 1440p 240Hz but OLED means motion clarity is on par with 360Hz and the input lag is actually lower on the OLED, plus it obviously looks much better.
@@RedfernYT I think the PG27AQDM uses the same panel as the equivalent LG OLED. Which I heard is not as colour accurate as the PG27AQN
The question is how do u set 1440 p
I'm still waiting for a 27inch 4k 144hz 1ms G-sync HDR10+ hdmi 2.1 Oled monitor.
Hi. Very soon will get a new rig and need a new monitor. Please let me know if you know for sure that 4k is worth it on 27" vs 2k. Cuz I think I choose 27 over 32, but still don't know which resolution is better value
This monitor have the same price as ASUS 27 inch Oled monitor in Sweden.
I'm fine with my 32-inch 1440p 240hz from LG (for now). LOL
Price is now $750 and I get it tomorrow
I already have a 1440p 240hz monitor and already feel like it’s overkill
True true
it matter what games you play on your computer. CS and Valorant are great fps for 360hz.
@@CodeVenomSnakes genshin ,tower of fantasy and destiny 2 a bit of hogwarts legacy
(0:00 Finally happened? ............ It's been out for months.)
Real shame you didn't actually bother to look at the Asus website on this monitor for its technology. There is an excellent video on there about the tech in this panel. You missed completely what the Ultra Fast-IPS technology is, which is relevant to any gamer. Making it not just relevant to e-sports players.
You banged on, even with analogies, why you need a very beefy PC to get the high frame rates. All while completely missing out the fact this monitor can run at lower resolutions than 1440p. It does 1440p, 1366p (92% of 1440p), and 1080p. You can also reduce it's screen area to run at 25", for 1366p and 1080p.
Overall it means you can play with what GPU you have, getting crisp respose times of 1.5ms. While you can play older less demanding games at the fastest refresh rates.
It won't burn-in. It does not have a weird sub-pixel layout that OLEDs have, that cause issues with anything outside of content consumption. Like the Alienware monitor you mentioned has a red and green halo around boxes like the google search box.
Should have done you research before yelling at us. You didn't even really review it.
My current most played game is capped at 60 FPS.
Did hou even test ULMB 2 mode? I think it's the whole Point of get in a monitor like this
ULMB2 wasnt available at the time this review was posted
@@gfdgfdgfdgfdgfdgd still had the deafult Asus strobing setting which is still much better for motion clarity
I got the VG27AQ this year and it runs real nice, I fell like this is overkill cause I think anyone needs above 240Hz maximum and 144Hz minimum.
I’m the opposite. I don’t think anyone needs anything above 240hz. Also I would say 60hz is my baseline.
2k 144 or 165hz is all I need.
I’d rather get a high refresh rate 4K 32” monitor for £1100!! 😮
High refresh rate for 4K means 175hz at best with significantly lower image quality. And that will require a beast of a graphics card because 4k has 80+% more pixels to render. So no, that's not a true single choice case.
@@kahatanna7 they make 4k 240hz
@@kahatanna7 My 7900XTX will run 4K with no problems so for me yes I'd go for a 4K panel and they do up to 240Hz

@@Raynoxfps When I decide to spend £1100 on a 4k monitor and not a 1440p monitor that's personal choice... nothing to do with your opinions

PUBG would be Awesome on this Beauty of a Monitor !!
but needs to have atleast 4080 , 4090 , 6950xt or 7900 Xtx level of hardware to make full use .
This monitor has a 1080p mode.
I recently purchased it but I have RTX 2070
Does this help me boost my price to performance? 😂
First...great vid so far!
A I9 or Ryzen 9 won't make a difference in gaming performance compared to cpus of the same generation
I am looking to buy a good gaming and productivity monitor for my rtx 4070
This monitor has excellent colour coverage. Check out other reviews. It's factory preset is perfect.
Are you saying I'm bad at esports games? Because I am
i have one aoc 240 hz va monitor
I dont think im gonna pay 900$ for a monitor, i couldnt give a shit less about 1440p because I only play fortnite and I play at lowest settings 1080p, i'll stick with my 1080p 240hz monitor for less than a 3rd of the price
If your not a professional e-sports player, you will do more than fine with a 1440p 144Hz.
Naa, I need more.
Bs noone needs even more then 144 placebo after that i bust ya ass woth 144hrtz u can have 600 is ya want
I'll stick to my Samsung G8 OLED at 175 Hz
I will be playing play subway surfers on it😀😀
I got the LG OLED…. Thinkin about returning it for asus. So torn.
what did you end up doing? did you find an oled you liked?
@@Joegengstah i kept the LG… I ended up not trusting Asus pushing the LG panel too hard and their QC issues. I play in the dark and when scorpion enters the frame on mk11 with his flame intro it lights up my room and burns my eyeballs so it is bright enough for me!
i dont see the point - spend the money on a 4k 250hz over this imo. patiently waiting for more 4k options
4k is good too but high frame great for CS and Valorant.
@@CodeVenomSnakes i can get 200frames with current 4k rig but ya i see what u mean
I'd rather just get the 240hz version as 360hz is hard to run in some games at 1440p.
He omitted that this monitor can run at 1440p, 1366p, and 1080p.
That is true for most games. 1440p 360hz is more for CS and Valorant player.
32' 4k 240hz please and thank you.
Samsung have 4k 240hz but for me I do not need it. I mostly play CS and Valorant.
@@CodeVenomSnakes It's curved though so it's a deal breaker for me. Not a fan of the new trend considering I use two monitors.
It is too expensive. You could buy a Samsung 32" 1440p 240fps curved gaming monitor for £599. You could have two of them for just an extra £100 than this monitor being reviewed(not that you would, that might be overkill).

360hz dyac+ is about 500 cheaper but it`s 1080p .
I just exchanged the zowie xl2566k because of the colours (bad as fuck even calibrated) for that beast,better for eyes and game immersion
While this is great and I love very high refresh rates, the ASUS OLED PG27AQDM is just a far better buy in pretty much every way.
Better in every way but the short warranty that doesn’t cover burn in 😢
@@ZachLDB true, definitely a valid concern and unfortunate that they didn’t include it.
The ASUS OLED PG27AQDM is great monitor. Monitor is base on what you play on your computer.
Who needs a 360hz Monitor
This is the question!
Farming simulator 2023 👌
Horace Goes Skiing.
No this is not a hdr monitor and no one should buy this for the hdr mode. It’s basically unusable. If you aren’t a e sports player and only care about gaming just buy the 240hz oled asus, not the lg oled as mentioned in this video. It’s the same panel but the asus get significantly brighter than the lag 240hz oled.
My understanding of the way the human eye works tends me to think that 360Hz is overkill and the money would be better spent on 240Hz but larger screen and/or better image/colour quality. I can't imagine there are many people who could truly discern the difference at this super high frame rate...enough to make any noticeable difference to gameplay anyway...

Got a 200hz for $100
Hello
I have the Asus Pg279qm and its the best option out there…
The moment he said £1100 i had to stop watching the video
seems overkill to me
The only thing I would say is that if you are a 27 inch enthusiast, this is probably the last monitor you will ever need lol
PUBG ?
Dude, please less caffeine before recording. 😂
6:34 you just spit at the screen lol😅😂
Love ur videos can u do a give away of stufs that u do not need
How about Asus Rog xg27aqmr 300hz 1440p ?
Have it, its great, but my gremlin is telling to get the PG27AQN
1440p 360hz monitor are great for the tactical shooter lovers. Also 1080p 360hz are cheaper then this 1440p 360hz.
You take an unbearably painful amount of time to get to the point

Haha first
Asus makes some really ugly monitors 😂
