The way I got around the super warm, reddish tint was by enabling hdr. You're probably going to want to lower the brightness balance after that through pc settings as well. I also disabled overdrive entirely because it had massive amounts of overshoot at even its lowest setting, but the display doesn't have enough ghosting to warrant an overdrive in the first place, so no big deal. It's looking great now, and for $240 from Micro Center I would say it's been an awesome upgrade from my old 1080-60 monitor.

Hello guys I got an Asus Tuf F15 laptop some time ago. (rtx 4060 and core i7 12700h with 1080p screen). Normally, in the settings section, my resolution goes up to 1080p (of course, I can change it to 4k with DSR). Today I got an asus tuf vg27aq1a monitor (2k 170hz), now when I go to the resolution section, without activating dsr, I can still choose 4k!! with the difference that in this case it goes up to 60hz. I wanted to know what's going on? Is this real 4k or has it been upscaled? should i use it? When i switch to 4k , even my monitor says it is 4k 60hz( when i use the joystick thing in back of it)
I came to this video to see if there is any mention of this exact situation in the video or in the comments (and if not to comment about it looking for some answers). I just bought this monitor few days ago, (I'm very satisfied with it so far) and I have exactly the same situation. It was advertised as 144p 170Hz (which works fine), however I have option of 4K 60Hz out of the box, and I didn't mess around with settings in Nvidia control panel, or something similar. What I suspect happed is that this was supposed to be a 4K model, but it was defective in some way, most likely couldn't do more than 60Hz at 4K (and maybe it was supposed to be a 100Hz 4K model). Another possibility is that it was some discontinued 27 inch 4K model (discontinued in the early stages of production). In either case instead of scraping it (and completely loosing money on it) they decided to sell it as a 144p model, but in our case they forgot (or something) to flash appropriate 144p firmware to it, so we ended up with a 4K monitor. Essentially we won a silicon lottery with monitors. I didn't notice any dead pixels on my monitor. Did you find any more information on this? I find this whole situation very fascinating.
I dont know why you didnt messure the monitor for us. Height from ground to Monitor for example. I already got the bigger brother VG27AQL1A with adjustable stand and pivot function. I wanna buy a second monitor but the VG27AQL1A costs 499 EUR and this VG27AQ1A costs 295 EUR.
Could u help me please, I can buy the AQL1A for 290 and the AQ1A for 240. But I don't know which one should I buy. Is the AQL1A really that much better?
It seems that on all these Asus IPS monitors picture is not stretched out all the way to the edges (bezel) of the monitor. There is something of a 5mm padding (black/empty) inside display area and inside of that "black frame" is the viewable picture. Is this the case with all newer monitors or just Asus. For example does this "display screen black frame" exists on other vendors monitors? Does this "display screen black frame" exists even on 3-side borderless monitors?
I just bought this monitor but mine is 165hrz 🤷♂️, anyway I use it for my ps4 fps gaming. Interesting enough what are good settings for it when playing cod? I’m new af to this, I’ve been using 55” tvs. But this is night and day, I’m literally winning 60% more gun fights
My monitor is stuck at 60hz and i have no idea how to fix it. I tried turning off HDR on the pa5 and messed around changing from racing and FPS mode but still cant overclock. Any ideas?
Its a 60 Hz monitor and there is nothing you can do about it. My issue is that HDR on my ps5 looks so bland and lifeless. Does HDR look good on your monitor?
Even if this monitor has Free sync and other gaming technologies, 60 Hz makes all of them useless for ps5 since it doesnt support these features unless your monitor is 120 hz or higher. VRR is not supported on this monitor even if it has AMD free sync. All i hope for is that PS5 pro will fix everything
tilts, sweet, what I need, don't care about height adjust altho they do make a height adjust in 2 variants, 165 and 175hz, which is nice I suppose in case a grow a few inches... lol
There are soooo many people comlaining about the fact, that it actually just runs 120hz without overclocking it... So it jumps down from 170hz to 120hz witch g-sync on. Did you experience this issue? I found a very good deal for this monitor, but now I'm so confused about this issue, it seems like the monitor actually just runs 120hz 😢 I would be sooooo thankful for an answer. My alternativ is a BenQ EX2710Q, also found a good deal. But yk time is running 😬
Okay, okay.... One of your most basic instincts after turning it on should be to greatly increase brightness, if only for the quality of your video. (And then I think turning down blue, or turning up red, would be the next step to give a go. Just takes a moment.) And in a million years, you might accidentally show the HDR preview of Windows... Regarding UFOs, my current rule is if one can clearly distinguish the white eyes of the alien (with one's own bare eyes), as opposed to there just being some whitish blur within a green blur, it's pretty good. Of course most people won't think that's special. But I've always had a focus on image quality in monitors more than speed before. And just 3 or 4 years ago, there was a horrible selection of "good image" gaming monitors at even 450 bucks. (So I didn't go with any selection, but just a normal normal monitor for image quality, which was still faster.) Then already the year after, there was a much better combination of both things, and apparently the price has been going down since...
Hi I hope you see this cause I wanted to ask- If you would chose this monitor over the NZXT 27Q which I find to have equal specs I think but has better looks with the bezels being tiny. I’m really stuck and hope you can help
What should I do if it didn't help my quality at all? Apart from the colors, I have exactly the same quality as my old monitor. I looked in system settings, cable, graphics card, nothing worked ☹️ As before, it does not have a high pixel resolution and quickly pixelates small details and blurs strangely in videos.
I bought one yesterday me and my brother after seeing ton of monitors including samsung G50A my brother told me to buy the samsung but i insist to buy the asus one after all i install it on my room and start checking and reviewing it with my brother the quality is quiet fantastic but the problem is the audio its pretty low when someone in the next room start talking a bit loud it really cancel all the attention it feels like the voice is shattered idk why now my brother is saying i told you to take the samsung and buy an out speaker and connect it on 🗿💔 idk guys tell me your opinion abt the asus and what speaker should i buy for it cause the voice is pretty trash ngl
Monitor speakers are genrally bad across all brands, hopefully you just bought some computer speakers and called it a day. samsung monitors are super expensive.
The first few weeks I had owned this, it went up to 144 hz but then it turned to 120 hz max. I've updated my driver but it still didn't fix it, can anyone help? edit: just realized that I was using a hdmi cable, and not display port.
Please someone reply my comment, it's important to me Does this monitor support 2k 120ghz on ps5? Because it is mentioned on the Asus website that 120ghz is only possible in 1080p and only 60ghz in 2k mode.
I do have kinda similar question, but for PC... it seems like asus is likely playing with the costumers and it actually just runs 120hz without overclocking 🧐 But yeah, idk the answer yet..

How does this compare to the MSI Optix G27CQ4? Also looking to upgrade my monitor. Upgrading my CPU to a Ryzen 5 5600x, and my GPU to a gigabyte vision OC geforce RTX 3060 ti.
Mainly play battlefield, and want to play some Forza, and some sports games.
I value deep blacks, and vibrant colors even tho BF requires quick response time.
The issue I’ve heard about with the MSI is a bit of ghosting?
I have the MSi G27cq4 and i send it back. The main problem the most curved monitor have is clouding. My msi monitor has lot of clouding. Second problem is the high you cant change the high and its a little bit too high for my setup
I just ordered mine! Getting it on Monday 🎉
How is it?
@@naor9792 I absolutely love it. I only ran into one issue which requires a simple fix. When certain games are booted up, the screen goes black. But after playing around with the ps5 settings today, I realized that this issue goes away when you disable VRR (variable refresh rate).

do you recommend buying this monitor in 2023....ik that this video isn't that old but it's just a question that I wanted to ask
Still using it ? Any flaws ? How satisfied are you gaming on 170hz ?
I just bought this earlier this week and it's arriving today!
Remind me what its like cause I just ordered one and its coming next week!

@NotJimbo pretty good to me
Hello guys
I got an Asus Tuf F15 laptop some time ago. (rtx 4060 and core i7 12700h with 1080p screen). Normally, in the settings section, my resolution goes up to 1080p (of course, I can change it to 4k with DSR). Today I got an asus tuf vg27aq1a monitor (2k 170hz), now when I go to the resolution section, without activating dsr, I can still choose 4k!! with the difference that in this case it goes up to 60hz. I wanted to know what's going on? Is this real 4k or has it been upscaled? should i use it?
When i switch to 4k , even my monitor says it is 4k 60hz( when i use the joystick thing in back of it)
I came to this video to see if there is any mention of this exact situation in the video or in the comments (and if not to comment about it looking for some answers).
I just bought this monitor few days ago, (I'm very satisfied with it so far) and I have exactly the same situation. It was advertised as 144p 170Hz (which works fine), however I have option of 4K 60Hz out of the box, and I didn't mess around with settings in Nvidia control panel, or something similar.
What I suspect happed is that this was supposed to be a 4K model, but it was defective in some way, most likely couldn't do more than 60Hz at 4K (and maybe it was supposed to be a 100Hz 4K model). Another possibility is that it was some discontinued 27 inch 4K model (discontinued in the early stages of production). In either case instead of scraping it (and completely loosing money on it) they decided to sell it as a 144p model, but in our case they forgot (or something) to flash appropriate 144p firmware to it, so we ended up with a 4K monitor. Essentially we won a silicon lottery with monitors.
I didn't notice any dead pixels on my monitor.
Did you find any more information on this? I find this whole situation very fascinating.
@@marinsako nope i give up on this long time ago
I dont know why you didnt messure the monitor for us. Height from ground to Monitor for example. I already got the bigger brother VG27AQL1A with adjustable stand and pivot function. I wanna buy a second monitor but the VG27AQL1A costs 499 EUR and this VG27AQ1A costs 295 EUR.
Could u help me please, I can buy the AQL1A for 290 and the AQ1A for 240. But I don't know which one should I buy. Is the AQL1A really that much better?
@@aronkacsor6408Depends if you need the adjustable hight or the pivot function...
Im writing this comment early, but the S2719DGF was my all tiem favorite monjtor, i changed to a ultrawide va and regretted it ever since
When i ordered it it said 280 hz, but when i got it the maximum i could use is 165. Does anybody know the issue?
It seems that on all these Asus IPS monitors picture is not stretched out all the way to the edges (bezel) of the monitor. There is something of a 5mm padding (black/empty) inside display area and inside of that "black frame" is the viewable picture. Is this the case with all newer monitors or just Asus. For example does this "display screen black frame" exists on other vendors monitors? Does this "display screen black frame" exists even on 3-side borderless monitors?
I just bought this monitor but mine is 165hrz 🤷♂️, anyway I use it for my ps4 fps gaming. Interesting enough what are good settings for it when playing cod? I’m new af to this, I’ve been using 55” tvs. But this is night and day, I’m literally winning 60% more gun fights
I’m having the same issue where my yellows and greens are a little off and can’t find a solution
My monitor is stuck at 60hz and i have no idea how to fix it. I tried turning off HDR on the pa5 and messed around changing from racing and FPS mode but still cant overclock. Any ideas?
Its a 60 Hz monitor and there is nothing you can do about it. My issue is that HDR on my ps5 looks so bland and lifeless. Does HDR look good on your monitor?
Even if this monitor has Free sync and other gaming technologies, 60 Hz makes all of them useless for ps5 since it doesnt support these features unless your monitor is 120 hz or higher. VRR is not supported on this monitor even if it has AMD free sync. All i hope for is that PS5 pro will fix everything
tilts, sweet, what I need, don't care about height adjust altho they do make a height adjust in 2 variants, 165 and 175hz, which is nice I suppose in case a grow a few inches... lol
Does it support ps5?!?
There are soooo many people comlaining about the fact, that it actually just runs 120hz without overclocking it... So it jumps down from 170hz to 120hz witch g-sync on. Did you experience this issue? I found a very good deal for this monitor, but now I'm so confused about this issue, it seems like the monitor actually just runs 120hz 😢 I would be sooooo thankful for an answer. My alternativ is a BenQ EX2710Q, also found a good deal. But yk time is running 😬
did you figure it out?
Okay, okay.... One of your most basic instincts after turning it on should be to greatly increase brightness, if only for the quality of your video.
(And then I think turning down blue, or turning up red, would be the next step to give a go. Just takes a moment.)
And in a million years, you might accidentally show the HDR preview of Windows...
Regarding UFOs, my current rule is if one can clearly distinguish the white eyes of the alien (with one's own bare eyes), as opposed to there just being some whitish blur within a green blur, it's pretty good.
Of course most people won't think that's special. But I've always had a focus on image quality in monitors more than speed before. And just 3 or 4 years ago, there was a horrible selection of "good image" gaming monitors at even 450 bucks. (So I didn't go with any selection, but just a normal normal monitor for image quality, which was still faster.)
Then already the year after, there was a much better combination of both things, and apparently the price has been going down since...
This or the m27q p? This one is 299.00 rn. And is the height adjustable?
Hi I hope you see this cause I wanted to ask- If you would chose this monitor over the NZXT 27Q which I find to have equal specs I think but has better looks with the bezels being tiny. I’m really stuck and hope you can help
At that point, it’s mainly what you think looks better
@@TechRoundUp would you think the monitor would look good stacked, with a dual mount. Also do you feel the bezels are too thick
Do you recommend getting the insurance plan on it?
I found a Asus VG27AQA1A whats the difference :)
VG27AQA1A is VA panel. This one in the review is IPS panel
Does this monitor supports display port 1.4?
Maybe not...
Then how can this display port 1.2 supported monitor can show or provide us above 144 hz ?
did you figure out?
Hi does this monitor work on the PS5 and if yes should I buy it?????

@@احمدعدي-ظ4ه Yes, this monitor is on top for me
What should I do if it didn't help my quality at all? Apart from the colors, I have exactly the same quality as my old monitor. I looked in system settings, cable, graphics card, nothing worked ☹️ As before, it does not have a high pixel resolution and quickly pixelates small details and blurs strangely in videos.

does it run at 120hz in 1440 on ps5 or not?
Please someone reply my comment, it's important to me
Does this monitor support 2k 120ghz on ps5? Because it is mentioned on the Asus website that 120ghz is only possible in 1080p and only 60ghz in 2k mode.
I do have kinda similar question, but for PC... it seems like asus is likely playing with the costumers and it actually just runs 120hz without overclocking 🧐 But yeah, idk the answer yet..
Yes! I bought it on blackfriday for 189. It supports 1440p 120hz on PS5, won’t support VRR because it is not hdmi 2.1 but that does not matter for me.
