The 240hz gaming monitor is based on the Fast IPS matrix measuring 27 inches diagonally. The panel has a QHD resolution (2560 × 1440 pixels) and a refresh rate of 240 Hz. The response time is 1 ms (Gray-To-Gray).

The 240 hertz monitor claims 95 percent DCI-P3 color space coverage, HDR support, and VESA DisplayHDR 400 certification. NVIDIA G-Sync technology is responsible for smoother gameplay and eliminating screen tearing.

The Asus PG279QM is endowed with proprietary multicolor Aura RGB lighting. Aura Sync technology allows it to synchronize with other components of the gaming desktop station, such as a keyboard and mouse.

The Reflex Latency Analyzer system has been implemented: this is a special built-in tool for measuring input latency, which allows you to determine how long it takes between a mouse click and the display of the corresponding action on the screen.

Price and availability

The Asus ROG Swift PG279QM gaming monitor has been priced at $899 and it is now available to buy via the Adorama.com, Bhphotovideo.com, and Amazon.com online stores.
