ASUS TUF Gaming VG279Q1A 27" Black 2020
The 27-inch 1080p IPS panel pushes a 165Hz refresh rate and 1ms MPRT via ASUS Extreme Low Motion Blur with FreeSync Premium, eliminating tearing for fluid motion. Shadow Boost selectively brightens dark scenes without washing out highlights, and its sturdy port selection includes DisplayPort 1.2 and dual HDMI 1.4. This monitor is best for competitive FPS players who rely on high frame rates and crisp shadow detail to spot opponents in dimly lit maps.
