Asus TUF Gaming VG27AQL1A 27in

A great purchase apart from PB Tech rip-off

Bought this monitor last weekend for use with XBox Series X after heaps of internet research. Its great coming from a 24 inch Asus gaming monitor (also from PBTech) and I can recommend the monitor.

This weekend it goes on sale for forty dollars less. Man, this is stink as!

Great

I was looking for a monitor which is not 4k but has high resolution and a nice color mode. This is perfect for me.

Awesome Monitor

Easy to set up navigate the menus. The colors are awesome when set correctly. Settings can be saved/load for different purposes as well which always come in handy.

Great monitor

After a little calibration, this is a great monitor. Full disclaimer, I don't use it for gaiming but I imagine that 1440p at 144hz is the sweet spot for a lot of people.

Looks nice after callibration

The ASUS driver zip has a couple of color profiles included, rtings also has one, I found the best starting point was the "racing" preset but that may not be the best for you based on what you play. I've only really been playing ME3LE & Tekken 7 on it but it looks great.
