I just noticed that the side of the box states that the XG27AQM has variable overdrive. Not sure how to verify that, but if it's not false advertising then that's one less advantage of the PG279QM.
It also advertises multiple levels of strobe duration in user guide, but it doesn't have it.

I contacted Asus support about that multiple levels of strobe and they said they added that in the manual in error and the XG27AQM does NOT support multiple levels of backlight strobing. They said they corrected the manual online but I have yet to look.

I'd also like to note companies like to use "variable overdrive" to say there are multiple presets of OD to choose from, not that it DYNAMICALLY changes like with a Gsync module.....
