About this deal

Kompatibilní technologie G-SYNC přináší nejplynulejší, nejrychlejší a nejúžasnější herní vizuální prvky tím, že eliminuje trhání obrazovky a frekvence snímků a minimalizuje přerušování a vstupní zpoždění.

The Asus has great colours but merely decent contrast, and that feeds into what this panel can and can’t accomplish. It’s great for mainstream gaming, but the screen doesn’t have the depth of contrast or the colour gamut ability to handle HDR content – it’s just not good enough to provide a noticeable boost. You can find AMD FreeSync 2 panels that work with G-Sync for a little less than the price of the Asus, so the VG27AQ isn’t the cheapest route to this kind of specification – but those panels will miss out on ELMB-Sync and may suffer when it comes to display quality. The VG27AQ features an AU Optronics M270Q008 V002 AHVA (IPS-type) technology panel. This is a different panel to other 1440p high refresh rate IPS screens we’ve seen to date, and actually not one of the typical panel parts. It looks like it might be a custom module for Asus, perhaps because of the new ELMB-sync technology. There is a 16.7m colour palette from an 8-bit colour depth offered. The panel part is confirmed when dismantling the screen as shown below: palcový WQHD (2560x1440) IPS herní monitor s ultrarychlou obnovovací frekvencí 165* Hz určený pro profesionální hráčeWe have plotted the luminance trend on the graph above. The screen behaves as it should in this regard, with a reduction in the luminance output of the screen controlled by the reduction in the OSD brightness setting. This is a linear relationship. Luminance– we aim for 120 cd/m 2, which is the recommended luminance for LCD monitors in normal lighting conditions

The screen has the accuracy and contrast to handle gaming and esports, and its input lag measurement of 6.3ms is excellent. Combine the colours, input lag and refresh rate abilities and you’ve got a screen that’s very good for fast-paced scenarios. Enhances colour saturation and contrast sharpness to give you better, brighter colours and detailed visuals for real-time strategy (RTS) or RPG games. TUF Gaming VG27AQ is a 27-inch, WQHD (2560x1440), HDR IPS display with an ultrafast 165Hz* designed for professional gamers and those seeking immersive gameplay. Those are some serious specs, but not even the most exciting thing the VG27AQ has in store. Those colour temperature, accuracy and gamma levels were maintained with the screen at maximum brightness and with the panel at half its original brightness levels, so you’re going to get consistent colours no matter how bright the panel is.

If you are investing in a gaming screen like this with a high refresh rate and added ELMB-sync feature, you are going to want to ensure your system and graphics card can deliver in that upper 100 – 165Hz range really anyway to get the most out of the screen in terms of frame rate, motion clarity and also response times. Brightness ELMB-Sync Mode (Adaptive=sync OFF) Brightness Setting Certified as NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible, delivering a seamless, tear-free gaming experience by enabling VRR (variable refresh rate) by default.

Strong overall gaming experience with adaptive-sync, high refresh rate support and good response times

Enhances the color of your opponents' health/mana bars, so that you can simultaneously respond and be the first to destroy the opposing team's main. The average contrast ratio of the screen was measured at a decent 1071:1 for an IPS-type panel. Testing Methodology The screen can take an HDR10 input signal but has no local dimming capability, so cannot truly offer an improved dynamic range. It has a peak brightness of less than 400 cd/m2 so doesn’t even carry the rather meaningless HDR400 certification. It also doesn’t offer an extended colour gamut or 10-bit colour depth, so overall there is no real display capability to support HDR. Conclusion Blur Busters Forums Board index Everything Better Than 60Hz™ Eliminating Motion Blur — LightBoost / ULMB / ELMB / DyAcGraphics card settings were left at default with no ICC profile or calibration active. Tests were made using an X-rite i1 Display Pro colorimeter. It should be noted that we used the BasICColor calibration software here to record these measurements, and so luminance at default settings may vary a little from the LaCie Blue Eye Pro report you will see in other sections of the review. Aspect Ratio Control –the screen has only 2 settings for hardware level aspect ratio control. There are options for ‘full’ or 4:3 modes which is a little odd. The screen is 16:9 natively so most external devices are going to be fine without needing scaling anyway which is good, but it would have been nice to see a mode to maintain the source aspect ratio whatever it might be, or maybe a 1:1 pixel mapping mode as well. The screen is aimed largely at PC gaming, and you can take care of aspect ratio control via the graphics card menu anyway so it’s not a major deal. An important thing to consider for most users is how a screen will perform out of the box and with some basic manual adjustments. Since most users won’t have access to hardware colorimeter tools, it is important to understand how the screen is going to perform in terms of colour accuracy for the average user.
