About this deal

This screen features a 2560 x 1440 WQHD resolution, a significant step up from the wide range of 1920 x 1080 screens on the market and a comfortable resolution for this size screen we feel. These higher resolution 27″ models offer a tighter pixel pitch of 0.233mm which results in a smaller text size than common 24″ 1080p screens, although it is still a nice and comfortable size. We are very used to working with 27″ 1440p screens all the time and find them very comfortable and a significant upgrade over 1080 / 1200p models.Some users may find the small text a little too small to read comfortably, and we’d advise caution if you are coming from a smaller screen for instance where the pixel pitch and text are normally larger. The extra screen size takes some getting used to over a few days as there really is a lot of room to work with but once you do, it’s excellent. For those wanting a high resolution for CAD, design, photo work etc, this is a really good option. The image was very sharp and crisp and text was very clear. With its WQHD display, you enjoy 77% more desktop space than a full HD screen to spread out your windows and palettes. TUF Gaming VG27AQ is a 27-inch, QHD (2560x1440), HDR IPS display with an ultrafast 165Hz* designed for professional gamers and those seeking immersive gameplay. Those are some serious specs, but not even the most exciting thing the VG27AQ has in store. Certified as G-SYNC Compatible, delivering a seamless, tear-free gaming experience by enabling VRR (variable refresh rate) by default.

TUF Gaming VG27AQZ je 27-palcový displej WQHD (2560x1440), HDR IPS s ultrarychlou obnovovací frekvencí 165 Hz* určený pro profesionální a náročné hráče. Má špičkové specifikace, to je však pouhý začátek všeho, co VG27AQZ nabízí. The OSD settings were adjusted as shown in the table above, as guided during the calibration process and measurements. These OSD changes allowed us to obtain an optimal hardware starting point and setup before software level changes would be made at the graphics card level. We left the LaCie software to calibrate to “max” brightness which would just retain the luminance of whatever brightness we’d set the screen to, and would not in any way try and alter the luminance at the graphics card level, which can reduce contrast ratio. These adjustments before profiling the screen would help preserve tonal values and limit banding issues. After this we let the software carry out the LUT adjustments and create an ICC profile. The Asus delivers great colour quality. The panel’s factory Delta E measurement of 1.36 is superb, and it means no colour deviations that human eyes can detect. Technologie ASUS Extreme Low Motion Blur poskytuje dobu odezvy 1ms (MPRT), která eliminuje rozmazání. Rovněž umožňuje pohyblivým objektům vypadat ještě ostřejší, takže hraní je plynulejší a citlivější. The weight of 5.8kg isn’t bad at all for a 27in screen, and the base is flat and unfussy, so it’s easy to move around a desk and to use for storage.Class 3) A lag of more than 16.66ms – the equivalent of more than 2 frames at a refresh rate of 120Hz – Some noticeable lag in daily usage, not suitable for high end gaming

There is a specific movie or video preset mode for Cinema which is brighter and cooler than our calibrated state, but which can be customised to suit your likingThe screen’s colour temperature of 6,298K is great, and delivers tones that are accurate and lifelike – it’s not far enough away from the 6,500K ideal to prove noticeable during gameplay. The gamma level of 2.22 is top-notch, too, tallying well with the key 2.2 figure. Elsewhere, though, the VG27AQ suffers in predictable areas. The Asus uses its Racing mode by default, but the other display modes are worse and so not worth using. The FPS, RTS and RPG options are very bright, but with poorer Delta E figures and warmer colour temperature results – so images look a little too red and oversaturated. The stand offers a good range of ergonomic adjustments. Tilt provides a wide adjustment range and is smooth but a little stiff to operate. Height adjustment is smooth and easy to move. At the lowest height adjustment the bottom edge of the screen is very low to the desk, at about 15mm. At maximum extension it is 145mm which provides a 130mm total height adjustment range. The side to side swivel is easy and smooth to reposition and there is also a rotation function although it is a bit bumpy but easy enough to use. The screen remained stable with very little wobble when repositioning it which was pleasing. The build quality and adjustments felt solid. Contrast ratio (static)– we aim for as high as possible. Any dynamic contrast ratio controls are turned off here if present Class 2) A lag of 8.33 – 16.66ms – the equivalent of one to two frames at a 120Hz refresh rate – moderate lag but should be fine for many gamers. Caution advised for serious gaming
