ASUS ROG Strix XG27ACMES 27" Black 2026
72 out of 100 medium confidence 13 reviews
The ASUS ROG Strix XG27ACMES is a 27-inch 2K IPS gaming monitor with a 255Hz refresh rate and 0.3ms response time, offering excellent motion clarity and color accuracy for its price. Users praise the sturdy, tool-less stand with full adjustability and a built-in webcam mount, as well as the solid I/O including HDMI 2.1 and USB-C with video input. However, several reviewers report backlight bleed and build quality issues, and the lack of built-in speakers and low USB-C charging power are common complaints. The monitor delivers strong performance for gaming and productivity, but quality control concerns temper overall enthusiasm.
