About this deal

Additional features– there are a couple of added features in the OSD which are a Shadow Boost setting, to help boost gamma in darker content and bring out details. There is also several features in the ‘GamePlus’ menu including crosshair graphic, a timer and FPS counter. There is a mode available but by default is is much cooler and brighter than our calibrated mode. May be useful to set up to your liking though Asus has made no attempt to the ROG Strix XG27UQ’s bezel. It’s a chunky affair that sits proud of the anti-glare layer and is just under 1 inch wide all around. When viewed next to another 27-inch monitor with a thin flush bezel, the Asus screen actually looks larger. It’s an unexpected optical illusion. Note 2: The Acer XB270HU was later updated to include a 120Hz mode, which will produce a slightly darker maximum luminance

Radiance is a critical feature on the subject of functionality considering it alters eligibility. Extra radiance is consistently finer, however not unquestionably vital in a number of instances. Asus's ROG Strix XG27AQ facilitates a radiance of 400 cd/m2.. This measure of vividness perhaps be looked upon as more than ordinary particularly with the condition the monitor is Standard Dynamic Range on the grounds that they don't feel the necessity of so much luminance as Standard Dynamic Range ones. Displays with and around this luminance extent would offer an enjoyable productivity, light video game sessions and a mixed media viewership experience. With the response speed being 1 ms, the ROG Strix XG27AQ switches colours super fast and retains the image blur-free in motion. Asus ROG Strix XG27AQ: Price UK Viewing angles of the screen were very good as you would expect from an IPS-type panel. Horizontally there was very little colour tone shift until wide angles past about 45°. A slight darkening of the image occurred horizontally from wider angles as you can see above as the contrast shifted slighting. Contrast shifts were slightly more noticeable in the vertical field but overall they were very good. The screen offered the wide viewing angles of IPS technology and was free from the restrictive fields of view of TN Film panels, especially in the vertical plane. It was also free of the off-centre contrast shift you see from VA panels and a lot of the quite obvious gamma and colour tone shift you see from some of the modern VA panel type offerings.After my diversion in the skies of New York, I swapped to my go-to genre: first-person shooters. Beginning with Apex Legends. movement in the game felt incredibly smooth courtesy of G-Sync and the full 144Hz framerate. I played several matches, swapping between ELMB and G-Sync and while both were good, I definitely enjoyed the smoothness of G-Sync more than the slight reduction in motion blur.

The connectivity of the XG27UQ isn’t limited to DisplayPort, however. The rear panel features two each of DisplayPort 1.4 and HDMI 2.0, so you can easily connect a game console alongside your gaming PC (though without HDMI 2.1, you’ll be limited to 60hz if you’re playing on console). There’s no picture-in-picture mode, though, which disappointingly forces you to completely change inputs to see what’s happening on your other device. The static contrast shows the ratio between the brightest and the darkest color, which the display can reproduce simultaneously, for example, within one and the same frame/scene. The average contrast ratio of the screen was measured at 1138:1 out of the box which was good for an IPS-type panel. It remained pretty stable across the brightness adjustment range as you can see above. Testing MethodologyThe SpyderX includes a suite of other tests to assess a monitor’s performance. As you can tell from the report above, the XG27UQ did very well, with the only shortcomings being its white point (6800K vs 6500K) and luminance uniformity where the corners and edges proved to be about 10-12% less bright than the center. This result is reportable but is difficult to notice in normal use, especially while gaming due to the motion on the screen. The percentage of the approximate area, taken by the active part of the screen, to the total front area. There are various panel technologies. Each has its own specific features - viewing angles, color reproduction, response time, brightness/contrast, production cost, etc. The image quality depends directly on the type of the display panel used.
