ASUS ROG Strix 26.5” 1440P QD-OLED Gaming Monitor (XG27ACDNG) -QHD (2560x1440), 360Hz, 0.03ms, Custom Heatsink, OLED Care+, G-SYNC Compatible, 99% DCI-P3, DisplayWidget, AI Gaming, 3yr Warranty

Things I liked-360 Hz, moving the mouse cursor at desktop is silky smooth. No latency delay at all. When playing games, there is no ghosting or anything.-Value, I got this monitor on sale for $629 + tax. Great price for an semi-glossy monitor. I left the plastic coating sheet on the screen and it still looks great.-Built in FPS counter. I use this feature all the time to check what fps am i getting when playing games. Easier than using 3rd party software.-Able to plug in external pc speakers in the headset 3.5 jack and output sound. Perfect if you want to play console gaming on the monitor if on a budget.-Only took me probably 30 mins to set up and it worked fine. I never updated the firmware either.-Brightness is fine. I use the HDR when applicable for games. You have to manually turn on the HDR settings in windows before going into the games. Then you need to turn it off when you done using HDR. SDR colors looks better at desktop than HDR.Things I didn't like.-Can't raise the screen that high, but the monitor is at face level so I quickly got used to it.-Pixel cleaning reminder pop up is a hassle. It kills my immersion when I'm watching movie or playing game and it pops up. You can turn it off but I just do the 5 mins pixel cleaning every 8 hours so I don't risk or delaying getting burn in. So far no burn in after 3 months. Be sure to register your monitor to get the 3 year OLED burn in warranty.-Some old games won't display on this monitor like Resident Evil HD remaster that I noticed. Be sure to have an old monitor handy if you run into some problems.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I’ve had the monitor for quite a while now, the Visuals compared to LCD and IPS is quite noticeable, I upgraded from 144hz to this 360hz screen, have I gotten any better at videos games? Absolutely not, I can now watch as others best me in 360hz instead of 144hz. I only have one problem with it, when I turn it off it randomly decides to turn itself on and I have no idea why or how, it is a great monitor though.

This is the best monitor for a 1080P IPS 24inch 180z 1ms HDR display monitor and the brightness is amazing in dark areas and the price was nice for me once again therefore the functionality like shadow boost, game visual ,low blue light , VRR Technology Gameplus , HDCP support , Trace free technology etc anyway not complaint at all

Phenomenal monitor. The premium price point is worth it as you're really getting the best there is in terms of features and ports. Worked great with my gaming pc and the hdr is incredible as you might expect. theres really no comparison when it comes to anything vs an OLED. Very good stand with solid adjustments. size is ideal for gaming at a desk. setup was nonextistant it was plug and play.

I have calibrated this monitor based on several guides online and my personal preferences and installed a custom ICC profile from RTINGS. I am using the latest NVIDIA driver as of this writing (572.83) and am using the ASUS_XG27ACDNG_MCM102 firmware via a DisplayPort cable connection, on Windows 10, an RTX 4070 Ti paired with an i9 13900K and 32 gigs of RAM.Every ultrawide monitor I tried looking at before I got this one was curved, and that's not what I was looking for. I wanted to upgrade, so I went with the XG27ACDNG, which I thought was a great choice for the price. ($630 ATT)Pros:The blacks, dude, they look INSANE! When playing survival horror games, the dark environments suck you into a void, and light sources on the screen shine just the way they need to. While playing games, you may find yourself trying to keep light sources in view because of how dark things can get. Thankfully, there is Shadow Boost! It gives you various levels of brightness for when you really need it, and the best part is you can set it to one of the shortcut functions for quick access!I love how responsive multiplayer games feel on this. Playing Battlefield 4 and World of Warcraft feels way smoother when I'm trying to move around.If you've never tried an OLED monitor before, like me, going from LCD to OLED is an insane difference in picture quality!Cons:I had to jump through hoops to figure out how to set custom resolutions. I prefer using 27-inch monitors when I game with a 21:9 resolution. In the NVIDIA Control Panel, when the DSC Support function on the monitor is active, it grays out the customize option under the Change Resolution page and prevents you from creating custom resolutions. The only way I found around this is to disable DSC Support, create your custom monitor resolution, set it to 180Hz, and then change to that resolution. Then, enable DSC Support again, and you will have your custom resolution with the full 360Hz. Even though you may have created a custom resolution with 180Hz since you turned off DSC Support, it will be set back to 360Hz when DSC Support is re-enabled again.One thing to note: If you restart your PC with DSC Support enabled, the custom resolution will be wiped, and you will have to recreate it. To avoid this issue, before you restart or turn off the monitor, disable DSC Support, then re-enable it when you're back in Windows.This is the only thing about this monitor that is preventing me from giving it a 5-star rating. If ASUS updates their firmware to fix the issue or at least offers a proper workaround, I will edit my score to reflect that change.
