Review: Black Frame Insertion is absolutely difficult to use, reducing the brightness to minimum - I've been geeking out over the ASUS TUF Gaming VG279QM 280Hz monitor lately, and let me tell you, it's been quite the ride. Here's my own personal take on this beast of a gaming monitor: Sleek Design and Fast Refresh Rate (5/5): First things first, this monitor looks the part. It's got that sleek gaming vibe without going overboard. But what really got me hooked is that 280Hz refresh rate. Seriously, it's like buttery smooth gaming heaven. If you haven't experienced high refresh rates yet, you're in for a treat. Full HD and ELMB Sync (4.5/5): Gaming in Full HD (1080p) never felt this good. The visuals are sharp, and the colors pop. And let's not forget ELMB Sync. It reduces motion blur, and when combined with the high refresh rate, it's a game-changer. Fast-paced games have never been this clear. Fast Response Time and G-Sync (4/5): With a 1ms response time and G-Sync compatibility, this monitor keeps up with my frantic gaming sessions. No more screen tearing, no more lag. It's like the monitor can read my mind. HDR (3.5/5): Okay, the HDR is decent, but not mind-blowing. It definitely enhances the visual experience, but it's not quite on par with some of the premium HDR monitors out there. I'd say it's a nice bonus rather than a game-changer. Build Quality (4/5): The TUF Gaming monitor feels sturdy and well-built. The stand is rock-solid, and you can adjust it to your heart's content. Plus, the bezels are nice and thin, which adds to the immersive gaming experience. Price and Value (4/5): Now, let's talk about the price. It's not exactly a budget monitor, but considering the performance you're getting, it's a solid investment. If you're serious about gaming and want a smoother, tear-free experience, it's worth every dollar. In Conclusion: To wrap it up, the ASUS TUF Gaming VG279QM 280Hz monitor is a gaming beast that has seriously upped my gaming game. The speed, the visuals, and the overall experience are top-notch. If you're a gamer looking to take your skills to the next level and don't mind spending a bit extra for a premium monitor, this one's a winner. It's a bit pricier, but trust me, those silky-smooth 280Hz frames are worth every cent. Happy gaming!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A fantastic choice for any gamer.
*by J***S on 8 December 2024*

Before I review the monitor I need to mention that I had to return my first one due to stuck pixels as such I have took away a star but for this reason only, amazon replaced it quickly without any fuss, And the replacement has arrived without any defects. As the monitor has a IPS panel it does have a slight amount of IPS glow but this is minimal and isn't really noticeable under normal use same applies for ghosting its subtle but not noticeable. This monitor looks acceptable with HDR on I have had a HDR400 monitor and that this one looks far better. Text looks clear, colours pop and contrast is what you would expect from a 1000: IPS panel I Currently have it connected via a DP cable and as it is display port 1.4 I haven't noticed any bandwidth issues that can occur when a 2k monitor with HDR is connected via DP 1.2. Speaking of which there is a option in the OSD to change cable type from DP 1.2 to 1.4. Freesync premium is flawless on this display even at 144hz, 10bit colour space with HDR enabled. You cannot enable 10bit colour with any refresh rate over 144hz so you have to compromise colour over framerate but I find 144hz is enough. The inbuilt speakers are what's to be expected, At only 2w they are extremely tinny with bass being non existent, They are fine if you have nothing else but I recommend buying a set of satellite speakers. All in all I am completely satisfied with this monitor and would recommend it to any one even after the first one had stuck pixels.
