Decent overall image quality, Fantastic gaming performance, Stylish and versatile stand, G-Sync works well, Attractive design, Choice of 144Hz with blur reduction or 240Hz

The ROG Swift PG258Q was a very impressive gaming screen and one of the best we've tested to date. The response times were very low and the overdrive impulse was controlled nicely across a wide refresh rate range, with only low levels of overshoot being a...
