Asus ROG Swift PG27AQN 27"

The Asus PG27AQN is a great high refresh rate gaming monitor that is going to be of particular interest to those wanting elite speed for competitive gaming. This is one of those displays that really pushes the industry forward as we're not only getting a 1440p 360Hz combination for the first time but IPS LCD performance that's never been reached up until now. It's safe to say that the PG27AQN is an extremely fast monitor in all facets, the refresh rate is very high which pairs well with the latest GPU hardware that can push well over 300 FPS in popular multiplayer games at 1440p, leading to increased smoothness and better motion clarity, relative to previous240Hz products.

After using this monitor for the last couple weeks and especially after seeing how well it does in some of the fastest games like Modern Warfare 2 for example, it is really easy to see the appeal, especially for anyone that takes competitive games seriously. It is really fast, the motion clarity is genuinely impressive and unlike earlier 360Hz monitors, that were all full HD, you actually get a well-rounded monitor experience outside of competitive games.

Really, this is overkill for most of us, and at $1050 it's pricey, save $300 and get the 1440p 240Hz model, that's a better bet, unless Pro gaming really is your career or passion and you hace the beefy rig to back it up and you want the best of the best0
