vg248qe being the standard in competitive gaming for so many years

The refresh rate, g-sync, and ULMB all work fabulously and are what contributes to making this a phenomenal gaming monitor.

Was iffy about going 2k but def worth it.... fantastic gaming monitor!

Best Gaming

ASUS, you are selling the public one of the most expensive gaming monitors and I'm sorry, but even a single dead pixel is UNACCEPTABLE AT THIS PRICE

Other than that the immersive experience while gaming is excellent

You're really not going to get a better gaming monitor without spending hundreds more on a monitor and dropping $1600 on dual 1080s

Good gaming

Gaming is unreal.

An incredible gaming experience if you have a rig to unlock the potential of this monitor!

Perfect gaming monitor so far.

240hz gaming is smooth as butter!

Great gaming monitor in overall.

(The ugly: 20+ years I've been perfectly happy gaming at 60-75hz on budget-level PCs and now I'm ruined for life...)

165Hz is ridiculously smooth and gaming is amazing.

Incredibly smooth gaming, I've never experienced anything quite like it

Best gaming monitor for 2017

The best gaming Mointor for surePros :34inch - ultra wide - 3440x1440 - ips - 100hz - gsync - curved - flicker free technologyanti glare screen - built in fps counter - metal base - ultra low blue - smart air systemrog light effect - Smart cable management - Game visual

I'm extremely disappointed in Asus, as this is arguably the best gaming monitor right now, but it is plagued with terrible quality control

An absolute beast of a monitor 1440p, 144hz, and Gsync makes gaming so smooth and beautiful colors were vivid

Absolutely the best gaming monitor you could ever buy

G-Sync combine for a super smooth gaming experience.

Gaming is beautiful

Prior to making this purchase I read through all the “best of” list and buyers guides and nearly all of them pointed at the monitor as the best gaming monitor out there.

Best gaming monitor I've ever owned; hands down - G-sync is a splendid utility.

to on 100hz best gaming experience

I have a great gaming experience with this monitor

Like stepping to hard on the ground, or knocking the desk, moving the mouse pad (weird right?), or other odd ways to make it flicker, but it rarely happens in critical gaming moments

This is the best gaming monitor by far

At the time of purchase this was and in most cases still is a pinnacle gaming monitor!!!!!

This is probably the best gaming monitor available right now.

I love gaming on it and no doubt the king of all gaming monitors IMO

The next generation might be a bit better, but for now, it is still an awesome gaming monitor and the 165 Hz/G-Sync/sRGB/wide angles are nice even in windows (read text while it scrolls, smooth mouse

If you want the best ULMB gaming experience, the PG27VQ is your huckleberry

This is a really really good gaming monitor

However, given the limited choice, if you have the budget, it is a beautiful widescreen IPS gaming display

THE BEST GAMING MONITOR

This is an amazing monitor, and is the best 16:9 gaming monitor available right now

This monitors colors are great, just tweaked the settings to my liking and amazes me every time I use it... if you want the best 1440p 27" gaming monitor look no further!

It looks gorgeous and I've enjoyed gaming with it.

Couple things to note, G-sync causes slightly noticeable input lag, but nothing major if you aren't into competitive gaming

that are perfectly fine for modern day gaming, I would say this is overkill for a monitor, but this product is very new, future proof because I would imagine 240hz would be a thing in the later future

The g-sync technology and the 165hz make for a VERY pleasuring gaming experience

Great gaming monitor

Again thoroughly Inpressed how smooth everything looks and makes colors pop and blend so much better especially in action movies or anything with lots of movement IE gaming of course!

but I would not Recommend Gaming on this Monitor at 165hz due to OC Problems with the Visible Lines flowing threw the Screen wants Overclocked too High now for the Screen

As long as you have good enough PC with GTX card, this would be the best gaming performance on 2K monitor

The best gaming monitor, period!

(The ugly: 20+ years I've been perfectly happy gaming at 60-75hz on budget-level PCs and now I'm ruined for life...)

This is easily the best gaming monitor out right now, and if you have the money, it's absolutely worth it

This monitor provides outstanding gaming performance

One of the best gaming monitors on market.

This has to be one of the coolest gaming monitors available

Time to get back to drooling over how beautiful gaming looks on this

Excellent features, It's one of the best gaming monitors until now, in the future will come better technologies like HDR and OLED and best video cards to move more pixels more fast, but for now, best in class, mmm probably IPS panel are not as

It is one of the best feelings, especially with the ultrawide!The colors of this monitor seriously make gaming all more enjoyable compared to TN panels

If you have the money and visual capacity to take in the amazement, this is the best gaming monitor out there.

I am satisfied with this product from all aspects:Large enough for an immersive game play experience at the maximum settings possible.100hz and extremely low input lag that solves the headache issues I was experiencing on a 32 inch screen w. V-SYNC onIPS panel meaning beautiful colors meaning amazing colorful gaming experience with also design work for careerGSYNC

+ 160 hz is a great gaming experience, tested it so far ( Fortnite, Overwatch, BF1, PUBG, LOL and even HS :P )

Unbelievable!This is PROBABLY the best 27" gaming monitor you can buy

The g-sync and fast refresh paired beautifully with my GTX 1080 to make an amazing gaming experience

Personally, I believe there are two tiers of gaming monitor worth buying

I have ever seen no dead pixels no light bleed and very minor calibration corrections needed I'm not even upset that I didn't spend the extra $150 for an IPS version -- if you want a good gaming monitor with great color and

I connect 2 computers (Work laptop and gaming pc) and need a quick way to switch input and scenery more (fps mode to sRGB mode)

, it alone has improved my gaming by far and I still using an old GTX 680 and not taking the advantage of the G-SYNC or the turbo to 100Hz yet, can wait to upgrade to a GTX 980 video card now

After I plugged it in, it went off smoothly, the resolution was really high and fine, and gaming was not a problem at all!The only thing about this

My humble opinion, I still think we are a little ways off from having super smooth gaming experiences at those resolutions without having to dial back certain graphical settings to get there

Everything was great for the first three weeks until one night while gaming, I could hear through my headphones, a loud grinding noise

Zero input lag when gaming

No jitters and it defiantly feels responsive while gaming

Smooth gaming

If you are really competitive gaming, (especially with shooters) YOU WILL notice the difference

This monitor is by FAR the best gaming monitor I've ever had

I hope this helps those of you looking to purchase a new gaming monitor, good luck!

I was able to overclock to 100Hz with no problems and don't have any flicker, noise, or scan lines while gaming

Using the NVIDIA G-Sync really shows the difference between how gaming can be good or GREAT!

With the exception of one flaw this may be the best gaming monitor on the entire planet in 2017

Do I care about how it looks on a black screen when gaming is beautiful?

I'll start my review saying this is a good gaming monitor

Outstanding gaming monitor

Super smooth gaming sessions and the colors this monitor puts out are vibrant and bright and the 2k resolution 2560x1440p is a big upgrade and difference from 1920x1080p

This is the best gaming monitor I've every used to date.

No jitters and it defiantly feels responsive while gaming

The refresh rate is incredible and makes gaming far more enjoyable and smooth

PG348Q 34-Inch Ultra-wide QHD Swift Curved Gaming MonitorMarch 27th, 2018 Update

Hands down, the best 1080p gaming monitor i've owned.

Good investment if you’re looking for a reasonable gaming monitor

After only just over a week of flawless gaming I woke up this morning to find lines in my panel, pixels half off in a strange grid pattern, and rapid flashing

PG279Q the best gaming monitor i have ever own

Was excited to receive this monitor and hook it up, 4K gaming sounded like a dream.

The colors are bright and gorgeous, and the wide aspect ratio and curved surface make for an awesome gaming experience

I never used G-SYNC until this monitor, but now I can see why they cost a bit more, the silk smooth gaming experience is to die for

If ASUS can solve this backlight bleed problem in my opinion they will indeed have the best gaming monitor on the market

Ultra widescreen gaming is awesome on this 100hz monitor

dont plan on using this monitor for dark movies or gaming, about 20% of the screen is bright on the sides and corners

I still can't recommend it for anyone needing color accuracy due to some odd blacks on the corners, but usable as a great gaming monitor and for miscellaneous media.

Overall great monitor for anyone who has the money and hopefully lottery is on your side of getting a perfect gaming monitor.

I researched for days looking for the right gaming monitor to pair up with my new EVGA NVIDIA GTX 1080

Don't get me wrong, the display itself is absolutely gorgeous; the colors are wonderful, the bezels are slim, the stand is clean and stylish, and the stated features (144hz, g-sync, etc) all work as intended.

The g-sync and fast refresh paired beautifully with my GTX 1080 to make an amazing gaming experience

In addition to a 165Hz panel you get Nvidia's G-Sync adaptive-refresh technology, ULMB motion-blur reduction, GamePlus, a hot-key to switch framerates on the fly and the usual lineup of gaming-specific image modes

If you don't have G-sync supporting GTX cards, DO NOT buy this model

Color Accuracy-Great Response Time-G-SYNC-Easy to adjust refresh rates

I've tested a few games (Overwatch, DOOM, Civ VI, among others) with G-Sync, which works perfectly and adds a huge edge for competitive games

Cons: G-Sync Scan Lines impacting the right half of the screen, signifying a faulty G-Sync Module

G-sync works

I will just go for the cheapest G-sync next time around

Modified graphics settings on the computer instead of the monitor (most websites say to try disabling G-Sync and V-Sync, dropping it down to 60hz, adjusting gamma, and so much more.**Of

The G-Sync when combined with a refresh rate of more than 60 hertz, the screen flickers 10 times in under a minute

Upon disabling G-Sync, the scan lines became far less visible

You're practically paying $150 just for G-Sync (Which I love

The color performance is exceptionally well tuned out of the box, and the pixel overdrive function is as close to perfect as you can get

This doesn't bother me too much as I can just turn off the setting and notice no difference in game, also like I said, don't be deterred, I'm positive it's my rig or the higher resolution of the monitor

- it may be there, but it didn't work right out the box as I had to manually change the input when the monitor was off - but it doesn't really matter cuz the joystick I explained earlier is boss

Expensive as

G-Sync works as

After reading several reviews I was confused as to what models were being reviewed after

I'm glad I stick with what I k pw and trust in Asus

I still have to wait for this thing to warm up as I just got it about an hour ago, so we'll see if I have to update this review if my third unit starts bleeding.

Pricey i

Great monitor no defects like dead pixels or bad back light bleed in the one I
