I didn't see RTINGS reviewed it and didn't know other asus monitors have this 60Hz lag issue. Till now I knew only VG25/279QM had it.
Don't worry about it because the lag will be high only if u set your resolution and refresh to fixed e.g. 2560x1440@60Hz (native@60). Otherwise if you use it at ...

Thanks again, Xehet! I've learned a lot from this forum already.

The Asus Strix XG27AQ has high input lag at 60 Hz. Is that a problem? My RTX 3070 should be able to keep the lowest refresh rate well above 60 Hz but maybe at 80Hz the input lag will still be annoyingly high. Here is a chart from RTings comparing the input lag of the Asus and a Gigabit M27Q. RTings ...

Thanks, Discorz. I think I will like it too. I like the esthetics, and that is important to me because it will be in a large semi formal living room.

$430 is alot of money for refurbished ...

I might be pleasantly surprised with the marginal HDR because my expectations are low because of what I have read about it. I haven't seen ...

I'm old but I'm immature and I think that has paid off in the long run. Also, I mt bike and snow ski a lot.

I bought the Asus Strix XG27AQ yesterday but I won't get it for a week. It probably won't be shipped until Tuesday so I have time to cancel. I'm sure it will be a big improvement over my 60Hz ...

I don't need ultra speed because I only play single player FPS games. I'm 70, enough said. :-) But I do appreciate quality hardware and eye candy. I mostly play Far Cry 5 Arcade games. Yesterday I bought an Asus Strix XG27AQ for $430 open box and now I'm having these doubts about it:

Is my RTX ...
