Asus ROG XG249CM 270hz ips 23.8"

Post by Kosvill » 03 Jan 2023, 10:14

I have this monitor here. Bad quality pursuits for 960PPS and 1440PPS (1.5h warmup). Pictures on overdrive 3. OD 4 has massive overshoot.

Panel: BOE MV238FHM-NG2

Backlight bleed and ips glow test.

So how do you like it? Do you prefer it over VG258QM TN?

Can we get some ELMB and ELMB-SYNC ufos/frogs?

VG258QM still my fastest monitor tested even faster than x25f. This xg249cm looks better than y25g-30 360hz or vg259qm imo. OD2 and OD3 are almost the same, 4 unusable. I like it and im going to keep it.

Yeah, response times are good. Still stupid they don't ship with a DP-cable.. Also i find IPS-glow rather excessive.
Offtopic: did you get y25g-30 360hz or 25-30 "280"hz?
VG259QM the GOAT

Yeah quite aggressive ips glow but video show more than in reality. I have about 10 dp cables so its not problem for me :D I actually tried 360hz Legion version because 280hz version went out of stock after ordering. I may have some ufo photos of it too.

After all purchases and monitors, im going to keep this xg249cm as my main monitor along with vg258qm. I returned y25g-30 already and sold x25f and some others.

edit. this 23.8" size suits very well for fps games

This has a good response times and inputlag. Tracking enemies in games like overwatch feels comfortable even tho its lacking some clarity compared to vg258qm but difference is not that big. Max brightness is pretty average, nothing crazy. Colors are good and image good for eyes overall.

Backlight bleed photo matched to look like in reality. BLB not a problem in my unit.

Inputlag very similar to VG258QM (280hz vs 270hz/freesync off). Photos from 240fps slomo. It works for side-by-side testing and confirmed x25f high input lag that way. Poor-man-benchmark.

270 OC and Freesync enabled is again causing some flickering on desktop. Cant stop it happening by reducing VRR range in CRU. tried 48-269hz, 48-265hz and 48-260hz. Any advice?

270 oc enabled, windows set to 240hz no flickering. 10-bit colors enabled when 240hz also

This might help fix those flickering issues. https://www.reddit.com/r/Monitors/comme ... &context=3
I also recommend disabling fast startup in windows power settings.

Hello, can anyone do an ufo test with elmb on to max value please, to see the best motion clarity this monitor has ? I'm curious. That would be nice. Thanks !
