144Hz refresh rate
Outstanding performance from all angles

The editors didn't like
The two gamut settings are polar opposites
Some sort of middle ground might have been nice
A greater number of dimming zones (ideally per-pixel or close to) or VA panel type would help the monitor control intricate mixtures of light and dark better
Inc
It's expensive
You need a top-tier graphics card to power this panel fully
Expensive
Need a powerful rig
Very expensive. Early adopter issues like active fan

The Asus PG27UQ is still the most exciting gaming monitor to come out of the brand's last two CES outings. Even if specifications are still hazy at this point, Asus is claiming that this model is almost ready for release. But judging from Asus' social med...
I've been using many different monitors for my workstation and gaming use, with my Acer Predator X27 (4K 144Hz G-SYNC HDR) and other 34-inch 3440x1440 monitors but only up to 100Hz so far, with some monitors in the pipeline to review at 3440x1440 @ 144Hz...
ASUS has created quite the powerhouse with its ROG Swift PG27UQ gaming monitor, offering up native 4K at a huge 144Hz with gloriously beautiful HDR and super-smooth G-Sync technology. It's the perfect storm of a gaming monitor with its perfect partner in...

Expensive
Aside from cost, the Asus ROG Swift PG27U has no flaws of consequence. It's extremely capable for gaming, video, color-critical work and general tasks. And once you've experienced games at Ultra HD resolution and 144Hz, it's hard to imagine playing any ot...
For many buyers, price isn't going to be the only issue – after all, size matters. A 4K resolution simply can't make up for the drop in desktop space compared to 32-inch or 34-inch ultrawide displays that cost half as much.If your priority is image qualit...

4K and high refresh rates up to 144Hz for the first time, HDR works very well thanks to FALD backlight, Great factory calibration, and low-glow panel a pleasant surprise
Very high price point, Small cooling fan may bother some people with very quiet systems, Missing ULMB strobing backlight although arguable how useful it would be on this display anyway
We spend a massive amount of time producing these detailed reviews, and this one seems to be even bigger than normal! Loads to test and plenty of exciting and interesting things to look at. If you appreciate and enjoy our reviews, and would like to help s...

Stunning image quality, Great gaming performance, 4K gaming at 144Hz is special, HDR looks fantastic, Fully adjustable stand
Very, very expensive, Windows resolution scaling can be iffy, Hugely powerful PC needed for 4K gaming, Not enough HDR content
The Asus ROG Swift PG27UQ is undoubtedly the single finest 27-inch gaming monitor you can buy right now (upcoming direct competitors such as the Acer X27 notwithstanding). Whether you're after gaming performance, top image quality for desktop work, the ut...
