Overview

VG27BQ: for an uncompromising gaming experience

Performance, immersion and excitement. The ASUS TUF Gaming VG27BQ monitor is ready to take your gaming to the next level and has been equipped with a formidable arsenal of technology to do so. Enjoy a 27" TN panel in WQHD (2560 x 1440) resolution to rediscover your favourite games and work your way to victory with a refresh rate of 165 Hz, backed up by a response time of 0.4 ms! This monitor also has a secret weapon, ELMB-Sync, which enables both G-Sync compatibility and ULMB (Ultra Low Motion Blur) technology. This way, you no longer have to choose between perfect smoothness without tearing or reduced ghosting during fast action.

Excellent visual quality

The VG27BQ's TN panel, with its WQHD resolution (2560 x 1440 pixels), is bright and delivers sharp images. For even more spectacular rendering of compatible content, this monitor supports HDR-10 (High Dynamic Range) technology, which provides more vibrant colours and better contrast than standard SDR monitors. In addition, several HDR modes are available depending on your current usage (movies, games...) to adapt the rendering to the type of content you are watching.

Exclusive ELMB-SYNC technology

The VG27BQ is the first gaming monitor to combine two technologies that are normally impossible to activate simultaneously: AdaptiveSync (FreeSync/G-Sync) and Ultra Low Motion Blur (ULMB).

Today, ASUS has managed to combine these two technologies and has equipped this monitor with them in the form of ELMB-Sync. Thanks to this major innovation, it is now possible to enjoy the best of both worlds (i.e. the benefits of G-Sync compatibility for better smoothness without tearing coupled with the reduction of ghosting and blurred areas during fast movements of ULMB) without being forced to do without one or the other!

165 Hz and 1 ms response time

The 165Hz refresh rate offered by this monitor is a great asset in providing superior screen fluidity, which is particularly useful in fast-paced games where every second counts, such as FPS or racing games for example. With this level of performance, winning will be a breeze!

The response time is also insane, with the ability to go as low as 0.4ms! This gives you the freedom to express your full potential against your opponents, with every variation in the environment being instantly transmitted to the screen without any ghosting or input lag.

Play in absolute comfort

All screens emit a varying amount of blue light, which can be harmful to the eyes if exposed for long periods of time. To effectively address this issue, ASUS Ultra Low Blue Light technology effectively reduces these emissions through 5 different selectable levels. Flicker is also combated by the Flicker-Free system so that you can play for longer periods of time under the best conditions.

With its ergonomic design, the VG27BQ can be adjusted according to your preferences: the stand has a 130 mm stroke, the tilt of the screen is adjustable to +33/-5 degrees and the whole unit can be easily rotated by 90 degrees on each side. In addition, the swivel function allows the panel to be switched from landscape to portrait format and vice versa very easily.

Improvements for gaming

The ASUS TUF VG27BQ is ideal for gamers thanks to its Viewfinder, Sniper, Timer, FPS (Frames Per Second) Counter and Display Alignment functions. Choose between four aiming reticles that will fit your gaming environment and keep track of the appearance and build times with a timer that appears on your screen or stay informed of your PC's performance level in game!

Meanwhile, Shadow Boost technology takes care of highlighting dark scenes without overexposing brighter elements, so you have an edge in dark environments.

    Top for gaming

    After a year of use, here are my positive and negative points:

    1) Exceptional Image Quality: The screen offers exceptional image quality with its resolution. Colours are vivid and well saturated, offering an immersive visual experience, as with Red Redemption 2 and Assassin's Creed, for example.
    2) High refresh rate + FreeSync technology: Animations are fairly fluid.

    Negatives:

    1) Built-in speakers are useless as they lack power and audio quality.

    Very good screen

    I am very happy with this screen, the display is very good, the colours are nice and the size is perfect for gaming.
    The integrated speakers are a bit weak but still usable.

    Not the cheapest screen but worth its weight in gold

    Exceptional fluidity (in 144Hz and 165Hz if your heart (and the power of your machine) tells you so), multitudes of setting options (colour profile for different types of games, Shadow Boost, HDR,...), G-SYNC compatibility and a response time of 1 ms make this screen a must-have for G@M3rz looking for a product of exceptional quality to explode n00bs on their favourite games. Tested and approved on R6 and CSGO.

    Great!

    Having switched from a 23" 60hz screen to dual 27" 165hz screens, day and night!
    Different settings possible according to your wishes.
    Thanks to the LDLC team for your good mood and for keeping my 2 screens in your shop ;)
    I don't give it a 10/10 because the energy consumption of the screen is not good. You give a "G" grade but the screen is marked "B".

    Top!

    I had bought a 144Hz MSI 27' just before, but had it sent back because of too much ghosting...
    This one is perfect, no ghosting, excellent contrast / brightness (even if set way too high when I unpacked). The colours are really good.
    A VA panel at the top, the viewing angle remaining largely good enough if you stay in front of your screen (which is usually the case ^^,)

    The G-Sync compatibility works without problem too :)

    Very good, it's arrived after 2 days ^^

    Very fast delivery and it was in perfect condition, easy to use but there is no shortcut to mute the screen or lower the volume (a button for example would be welcome) but otherwise nothing to say, there is an integrated cable (DPI and HDMI even if I bought this cable https://www.ldlc.com/fr-be/fiche/PB00273376.html?offerId=AR201906140071 which I recommend) The stand is very handy we can lower it, climb, tilt etc ... I RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT!

    Super screen

    Top notch screen, very good image quality. It's a great screen, you need a good configuration to enjoy it.
    I have completely rediscovered my games, I went from a 24 inch fhd in 60 hz to the Asus and it is really a treat. The only downside is that HDR is not taken into account very well by windaube, which generates small bugs (on the division 2 when I turn up or down the volume with the headphones I have a black screen, once HDR is deactivated no problem, besides I don't really see the difference).
    If you want a 27 inch wqhd g-sync compatible go for it!
