The editors didn't like

  • Restrictive viewing angles of TN Film technology
  • Lack of preset modes and some bells and whistles
  • Limited connectivity with DisplayPort only
  • We'd have liked an HDMI port to connect a games console or TV box
  • Even if it is without GSYNC
  • Pretty high price
  • No ULMB in 144 Hz mode
  • Very expensive
  • Mediocre out-of-box image quality
  • Limited monitor controls
  • The cost will be too prohibitive for many
  • AMD users will need to buy Nvidia hardware to take advantage of GSYNC
  • Be prepared to invest in expensive graphics hardware if you want consistent 100frame rates at 1440p in the latest DX11 games
  • Only $799 in Am

  • 1440p monitors aren't as conventional as 1080p and 4K options that pop up in the market because the former is more commonly used while the latter is highly sought after. 1080p is also easier to run for almost every level of hardware available today, while...

  • The ASUS ROG Swift PG278Q is a monitor that is good when it comes to the usability features, but falls short on many of the objective measures. With a well designed stand, a pair of USB 3.0 ports, and a nice OSD, it is a display that is easy to use and ad...
