he probado monitores de gama media, de MSI y unos más baratos, este en especial me costó aprox $350 DLLs, lo más destacable es su gama de colores, como lo que he hecho en todos mis monitores es calibrar a mi gusto saturando un poco los colores, este al principio tenía colores muy cálidos que está bien pero no me gusta tan cálido son detalles que en todos los monitores los acomodan de acuerdo a lo q se busca este se puede hacer overclock desde los ajustes del mismo monitor llegando a 170hz la resolución 2K es verdaderamente bellísima, el local Dimming está bien para juegos de terror y lo que he notado es que muestra negros profundos no tanto como una pantalla OLED pero si marca una gran diferencia. lo único que no me gusto es su soporte aunque si bien lo puedes mover para cualquier lado, mi escritorio es algo pequeño las patas son algo estorbosas le tuve que comprar un soporte flexible de gas así ahorre mucho espacio. Pros: • excelente gama de colores • overclock de stock hasta 170hz (de fabrica son 144hz) • no tiene ghosting • tiene Local Dimming • soporte de stock tiene mucha movilidad de arriba abajo hasta se puede poner en vertical • tiene soporte para VESA contras: • tiene HDR (400nits aprox) pero no están bueno como el de las TVs • soporte de stock es demasiado grande y estorboso • la tapa trasera para cubrir los cables es muy frágil y delgada (ya se le rompieron 2 patitas: c) • no tiene manual para quitar el soporte completo, tuve que investigar cómo se quitaba el soporte stock que también es algo complicado de quitar. en conclusión, creo es el mejor monitor por su precio o al menos por el que lo conseguí tiene 3 años de garantía aunque no lo mencionen en la publicación Asus te da 3 lo dice en la caja, vale la pena en todos los aspectos para Gaming y diseño si buscas algo con buen HDR creo q hasta la fecha no hay ningún monitor con un buen HDR de menos de 700nits el de este si no me equivoco es de 400nits Read more

You want a good 1440p monitor? 2021 edition So I have been doing research for about 3 days and it was so overwhelming at first. I literally was losing my mind and going cross-eyed, every monitor has bad reviews it seems, when I finally felt I had found the one it was back to the drawing board. My goal 27inch (ish) and 1440p (because at 27inch 1440p is basically as tight as you can get pixel wise). 4k is overkill at this size and will ruin your fps in games. You are welcome. After doing tons of comparisons I narrowed it down to 5 monitors, 2 of which had to go. Here we go. 1. Gigabyte M27Q - IPS Panel This was chosen because of its awesome specs, ratings, contrast, response, you name it, this checked all the boxes and hit 165hz at $300 dollars, I was like ok this one is definitely on the list, but it has one drawback which is mentioned in all reviews its a BGR panel, burn that one to your brain. Instead of standard RGB, no biggie right? Apparently it messes with fonts and how they look and all you gotta do is swap cleartype over via tuning. Well I did that, it helps, but it is so freaking bad it ruined the monitor. I dont know how these review sites can just say its really not that bad, its awful, even during gaming you can see this weird 3d glasses old school blue red to the side of pixels. I dont understand why they did that and why review companies would be ok with this. I boxed it up within an hour of testing, it was making my eyes freaking water it was so bad. How can people live with that? 2. Gigabyte AORUS FI27Q-X -- $699 This was going to be the higher end choice, again ips. Due to it being BGR and me seeing the m27Q I stayed very far away. So thats a no, x'd right off the list. 3. Asus XG27AQ (this monitor) - $499 IPS panel, this monitor hits all the checkboxes, smooth, fast, great color out of the box, semi decent price, good stand, rgb lighting on the back, low ips glow, good contrast, the border around the monitor is good, its flat, 27inch, 1440p 170hz refresh rate. Quality control is good, menu is good, simple and easy. Im happy with it, it also beats all my previous gaming monitors ive ever tested and its top rating on rtings, and I can see why. This thing nails it, gaming is crisp, responsive, no ghosting, smearing or trails, colors pop and hit just right, off angles are great as well. This is why I kept this monitor. 4. MSI Optix MAG274QRF-QD -- IPS 165HZ $449 price, this monitor gets great reviews, posts essentially better specs and contrast than the XG27AQ (which btw is the best 2k monitor asus offers right now). The only thing I see about that one is there is hit and miss in reviews on getting bad panels, with the asus group they just dont have that issue, as well color out of the box not the best but can be made better than the XG27AQ, it also can do better hdr content and overall maybe the better monitor in the entire list of all IPS panels at 2k. Check the reviews on amazon its high rated for sure, but msi is just known for some quality issues and grey uniformity on rtings does show its better so Id say the quality of the panel is less (more dirty) but it does win on performance. 5. The samsung g7, its a va panel 240hz, its $699 so its top budget pricing and it apparently smokes. The only downside is the curve and its a curvy thing. As well the off angles arent that great (maybe why its curved). Some state it has dark vingetting in the corners, but all corners can be weird. Either way its a panel to highly consider especially if you got the budget and the power to push new titles to 240fps, RTX 3080 and RTX 3090 or way lowered quality settings will get you there. Either way the g7 is definitely ready for a power house graphics card, RTX 4090ti in the future might get it there. So overall run down here. These are my suggested top 3 monitors to look at. Asus XG27AQ - great panel, price, performance, colors, quality control, less fuss, just buy and be happy. MSI - also great, slightly better price, might come out with a winner might not, has better specs and contrast and such over the asus. Samsung G7 - Darks are great, contrast blows these two away, curved if you like that go for it, there is also a 32inch model. These are the kings right now, until for whatever reason oled gets it butt in gear and starts producing high refresh rate oled panels in 27-32 inch. Also if you want a good monitor $299, I would go with the gigabyte g27q, that one is a RGB panel, 144hz its not as good as the m27q, but the m27Q is useless like I said due to the image text clarity issues that make you go blind. Cons of this monitor: there are two. One this monitor qc can vary. Aka dirty panels. There maybe some yellowing on some panels on a white screen. You'll see a variation or blotch of yellow very slightly almost hard to see but it's there. You'll only notice on a white white screen. You may have to do a return once or twice to get a good one. I bought 4 got 1 really good one. 2 decent. 1 kinda not so great. 2. This one is hard for some to see. When you scroll on a white page with black text and the color of the screen is warm or windows has turned on night light mode the words can kinda trail or ghost in red. I've never seen this before. Turning off night mode makes it go away. It could be a windows thing or a warm color issue. Thats it folks! Hope this review helped I tried to make it as simple as possible and dont want you people to have to deal with cutting through so many reviews just to get it down to that. Definitely look at the rtings website and forget what they suggest just use their table tool and play with that to see whats at the top you can even narrow it down to resolution and such. Until then this monitor gets all 5 stars from me, in reality its maybe more like all 4.5 stars, but since no other monitor is really out there that blows it away, maybe a flat G7 samsung panel or oled panel soon, either way im glad I got this monitor otherwise I would return it and it beat all my old gaming panels (144hz as well) aoc, benq monitors. Also stay away from tn panels, those are crap and they dont even rank anymore in gaming, ips has taken its place, va is still iffy and not many panels yet, but they could do better soon. Read more

First Impressions: Colours are pretty awesome and this is my first IPS Gaming Monitor. They do stand out. I had an old VA 60hz panel. I overclocked my refresh rate to 170hz and Games are smooth as butter. I just had to tweak some stuff to my liking and it all comes down to personal preference for whatever you are using it for the moment, ex. Movies, Games, Browsing, etc.. Notes: - There are minimal light bleeds / no dead pixels so mine came in excellent condition. It is supposed to advertise as DCI-P3 95% but the box says 90%. I'm guessing it's Asus's quality control from what I been hearing about. - Other minor things like changing sharpness in the monitor settings are not an option from what I've seen so far but that's not a big problem. -Also, the screen is very bright so I recommend using User Mode to adjust according to your needs. -There are some cool features such as ELMB but I don't use it for everything, I only use it for certain games that are fast-paced like CSGO, Overwatch etc.. -G-sync compatible so no screen tearing and the response time is fast when it comes to FPS games I've played so far. I would personally recommend this for people coming from old monitors that need an upgrade or serious gamers out there. Jumping from 60hz to 170hz is a huge difference for me so it was worth it. If you are trying to upgrade from 144hz to 170hz, there are no significant differences. This is the perfect monitor as it is well-rounded for all uses especially Gaming. Read more

PREVIOUS MONITOR Since 2016 I've used the Acer XB271HU 1440p, 165Hz, IPS, G-SYNC Module, 27" monitor for everything I did. That includes gaming, 3D modeling (Rhino3D, Maya, ZBrush), 3D rendering (Maxwell, VRay), photo editing (Photoshop, Lightroom), 2D graphics (Illustrator), and it did great for everything. I never calibrated it and colors were still decently good (not perfect) when printing physical copies of my work. For gaming, it was great and I could not have chosen a better monitor when I did for the various things I needed it for. NEW MONITOR (ASUS XG27AQM) To preface this, I've also used the Acer XB273U GX and the ASUS TUF VG259QM for several months each and at separate times each. Purchased them at Micro Center just for testing purposes (to see which I liked more) and not for ownership. I know some people prefer 24" monitors for gaming, but I personally can switch between 24" and 27" monitors just fine. It's only been one day since I received ASUS XG27AQM in the mail, but listed below are my PROS and CONS. Personally, it's worth the upgrade from my previous monitor (especially since I'll be looking to sell my XB271HU now). The ability to feel and play at frames higher than 165fps (especially if sustained and with a crisp frame time graph) is very noticeable and makes fast paced games much more enjoyable. I have not overclocked it to 270Hz because there's currently really no need to in my opinion (refer to CONS). SIDE NOTE (UPDATED) I'm also a bit cautious of the OC function because on my previous experience with the Acer XB273U GX and the ASUS TUF VG259QM. Both screens would go black for a few seconds and then the picture would come back. Granted, it also warns you when enabling the OC. I honestly didn't mind it, but it'd happen in the middle of a game which was annoying at times. I purchased an iVANKY DP1.4 cable (since the reviews were great) and the black screen still happened even when trying different ports on the monitors and graphics card. The OC function on my Acer XB271HU never caused the screen the go black, ever. Update: Since writing the review, I've overclocked the XG27AQM to 270Hz, and at least for my unit, the screen does not flicker or go black for a few seconds. Keeping it overclocked for the foreseeable future. PROS - 1440p - 240Hz (270Hz OC) - Very Responsive (Slightly quicker input lag than my previous monitor, but that's probably due to the increase Hz) - Good colors (Will most certainly calibrate this monitor though) - Arrived with zero dead pixels - No perceptible overshoot at Overdrive Setting 4 (I tried OD-5 as well, but I visually preferred OD-4) - Motion clarity at OD-4 with ELMB disabled is noticeably improved from my previous monitor - I have G-SYNC Compatible enabled and it works great (I personally don't notice a difference from a physical G-SYNC Module, and many well documented reviews for monitors only show an input lag increase of

Do not listen to most of these people who are giving this monitor bad reviews. This monitor is a beast and probably one of the best 1440p monitors out for this price. I would highly recommended this over its competitors and the 270hz doesn’t hurt either. Read more
