27" 280 Hz IPS Gaming Monitor

The ASUS TUF Gaming VG279QM is a 27 inch Full HD IPS display built for competitive play. It delivers a 1920 x 1080 resolution with a 280 Hz overclocked refresh rate and a 1 ms gray-to-gray response time. NVIDIA G-SYNC compatibility and ELMB SYNC work together to reduce tearing and motion blur. The panel covers 100 percent sRGB and reaches 400 cd/m2 brightness.

Competitive players wanting maximum motion clarity

This monitor suits gamers who prioritise high refresh rates and fast pixel response over pixel density. The 27 inch Full HD format keeps GPU demands modest while the 280 Hz ceiling supports very high frame rates. Buyers who want higher resolution for detail work or immersive single-player titles should consider a 1440p or 4K panel instead. Users needing USB-C connectivity or a wider colour volume for professional grading will also need a different model.

280 Hz overclocked refresh rate

The single specification that decides fit is the 280 Hz overclocked refresh rate paired with a 1 ms gray-to-gray response time on an IPS panel. This combination targets motion clarity in fast-paced titles such as shooters and racing games. If your graphics card and games cannot consistently push frame rates well above 144 fps at 1080p, the extra headroom goes unused. Verify your system can sustain high frame rates before choosing this panel for its peak refresh capability.

Will this monitor fit on my desk and allow ergonomic adjustment?
