ASUS MG279Q with FreeSync / Adaptive Sync 4ms - 144 Hz gaming on an IPS display, free from screen tearing and/or sync stutteringIn this review we will test the 599 EURO FreeSync capable ASUS MG279Q Gaming, a 27-inch 2560x1440 monitor that can do 144Hz. Th...

Intriguingly, you get all this for less money than Asus's familiar ROG Swift monitor. That panel is very similar in many regards. It's 27 inches, has 2560x1440 pixels cranked out at 144Hz, and also sports adaptive sync. But it also differs in two critical...

The core part is the same in both products and comes from AU Optronics; internally it's known as M270DAN02.3. It was first made available in 2014 and runs at 144Hz in its stock form. No further modification is required, which means it will run reliably al...

While we didn't find the 90Hz FreeSync limit to be a problem, we would rather see it implemented to the full 144Hz rate the monitor is capable of. Still, we had a hard time finding a fault with the MG279Q during gameplay or any other use for that matter...
