The lower resolution compensates for high refresh rate so you dont need a high end GPU to get the most out of it. It has G-Sync which gives more cooperation between your CPU, GPU and the monitor, everything works in tandem with each other.It can be overclocked for more increased refresh rate but I personally dont see the point in 170fps if the technology isnt there to maintain such a high frame rate, this may make the monitor run hot, it has a built-in fan for that reason. Use with caution.My only advice is to not have this monitor close to your eyes if you lack the space, hence why I have it on the wall, if its too close, the bright picture, vivid colours can potentially give you headache or eyestrain. A wall mount is recommended, I couldnt fully enjoy it until it was on the wall.It also has built-in speakers but they are very tinny and lack bass, they sound like speakers that came from a PSP device. Not very good but I suppose they are a last resort if you dont have speakers.The control buttons are easy to navigate too as it has like a litle nub you can push around to go through the settings.Was using a 4K 60Hz monitor for years. As much as I loved the clarity of 4K but it was just too demanding on my GPU on some games. 2K and higher refresh rate seems to be the way forward ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better than most ASUS ROG Strix XG27AQ *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 12 January 2024* This ASUS ROG Strix XG27AQ HDR Gaming Monitor is a fantastic deal. HDR, Resolution 2560/1440 , Refresh rate at 170hz.Wow, it is a high def monitor for me to dabble in pc games. It has a silent cooling fan built-in and of course, if you have a ROG laptop then it links to aura.I got this on Amazon way lower priced than anywhere else and do not regret it. A note to mention is to get the above specs you really need Display Port. I have Thunderbolt on my ROG Laptop so I just bought a C connector to display port ( USB C to DisplayPort Cable) Highly recommended, a quality 27” Monitor. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ G-sync compatible, vibrant colours *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 1 May 2022* This comes factory calibrated. In SDR mode the colours a very vibrant.The banding is a lot better than what I've seen from other monitors.Even though this is only HDR400, I gave it a try. Windows still need some work with its use of HDR. I have noticed that some overlay features like the volume bar will cause a flicker. In-game it's a lot better than I thought. You see a lot more detailsThe only downside for me is that with the the back panel on, it's a little tricky to use the USB ports, probably best to use them for keyboard/mice - or something else that you plan on keeping plugged inAll in all a very nice monitor ## Frequently Bought Together - ASUS ROG Strix XG27AQ HDR Gaming Monitor Γ’β‚¬β€œ 27 inch WQHD (2560 x 1440), Fast IPS, Overclockable 170Hz (Above 144Hz), 1ms (GTG), ELMB SYNC, G-SYNC Compatible, DisplayHDR 400 - Corsair RM850e (2023) Fully Modular Low-Noise ATX Power Supply - ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 Compliant - 105Β°C-Rated Capacitors - 80 PLUS Gold Efficiency - Modern Standby Support - Black - AMD Ryzensets 7 7800X3D Processor with 3D V Cache technology (integrated Radeon Graphics, 8 cores/16 threads, 120W TDP, AM5 Socket, 104MB cache, up to 5.0 GHz max boost, no cooler) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/299177521-asus-rog-strix-xg27aq-hdr-gaming-monitor-27-inch-wqhd](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/299177521-asus-rog-strix-xg27aq-hdr-gaming-monitor-27-inch-wqhd) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-15*
