ASUS ROG Strix XG27ACG 27" black
The Fast IPS panel achieves a true 1ms response time and 180Hz refresh rate, while ELMB Sync uniquely combines blur reduction with variable refresh rate to eliminate ghosting without sacrificing smoothness. Its 95% DCI-P3 coverage and USB-C connectivity with DP Alt mode add genuine versatility for color work and clean desk setups beyond pure gaming. This monitor is best for competitive gamers who also edit photos or video and want a single, high-refresh display that handles both tasks without compromise.
