The editors liked

  • Excellent gaming experience

  • Flicker-free backlight
  • Excellent default setup
  • Incredible responsiveness
  • Gameplay completely smooth thanks to GSYNC
  • A decent design for a gaming monitor
  • Finally a QHD TN panel
  • Sturdy stand
  • 4K resolution
  • G-Sync compatible
  • Excellent post-calibration color accuracy
  • Super smooth motion at the highest settings
  • Well thought out interface system – we love the nipple/joystick system
  • Build quality
  • Strongest
  • Most versatile monitor stand system we have seen
  • Very good ‘out of the box' setup

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

  • GSync works as advertised
  • Only one display input port, Expensive
  • If money is no object, and you happen to be running a system equipped with an NVIDIA GTX 650Ti or above, this is the monitor to go for, if you don't mind the lack of multiple device support.(previously published in issue September 2014)...

  • No-frill design with generous air vents for better head dissipation, Almost non-existent matte-black bezels, Offers various monitor adjustments (Tilt, Swivel, Pivot, Height), 27-inch with WQHD hits the sweet spot between size and resolution, High Refresh
  • about it, Premium price tag ($799 or Php45,000), Viewing angles are not that great, Color reproduction and Contrast is good, but not at par with other panels, Only has one (1) video port, G-SYNC is only limited to NVidia Graphics cards (sorry AMD users),
  • We said it once and we'll say it again; the ASUS RoG Swift PG278Q is the best gaming monitor in the market. It's the perfect marriage between outstanding design and innovative display technology, one that will truly complement your high-end gaming rig.The...

  • Incorporates GSync technology, Easy to use controls and OSD, Wellengineered stand, Thin bezel, Fast and responsive pixels
  • Only a single MiniDP input, Out of box color accuracy only decent, GSync only works with NVIDIA GPUs, Very pricey and it's not a 4K screen
  • The ASUS ROG Swift RG278 combines cutting-edge monitor technologies in a sleek and attractive design. The light up base might not be to everyone's tastes, but you cannot argue against its slim design and those thin bezels. The stand is also very well engi...

  • Hands down, the PG278Q is one of the best monitors for PC gaming, simply because its G-Sync capabilities will quite literally take your gaming to the next level. Priced at $750 (AED 2,770 ) it's a worthwhile investment if you're looking for a comfortabl...

  • A falta de unos meses que se libere la tecnología “Adaptative Sync” integrada en Displayport 1.2ª que hará que cualquier monitor compatible y cualquier grafica compatible tengan una tecnología similar a la tecnología G-SYNC de Nvidia, sin costoso hardware...
