    These monitors are top notch. I am not a gamer. I just wanted to use them with Zoom for video conferencing. I get great looking video from our office in San Francisco to my home office in Cypress. I have a laptop with two of these external monitors. Every couple of days, one of the monitors seems to go offline, but a computer reboot easily fixes the problem.

    Junk monitor - DO NOT BUY

    Bought this monitor today. Got it home and connected it to my pc with a 2080ti. No g sync, no overclocking of the monitor what so ever. I completely uninstalled drivers and reinstalled, uninstalled Nvidia control panel and reinstalled with no success. Notice in the photos the Gsync option is not available and anything higher than 60hz is not available because the monitor does not allow me to OC as it is supposed to. The monitor would not give me the option of overclocking. Many people boast about how good this monitor is and I say "nah, no way". I called Asus support to be told that they would call be back in 24-48 hours - I don't think so. You pay $2000 for a monitor, you expect it to work and dang sure expect to be helped in a few minutes, not 24-48 hours later (and that was expedited help and support they claimed). Saved up for a while for this monitor, still looking for a good monitor but I did learn that this is not one of them.

      Dear Rabman,

      I'm sorry to hear about your setup experience with this monitor. This is absolutely not the type of experience we want any of our customers to have. Please verify that you are connected to the monitor with a DisplayPort cable. If so and there is no change, please test with an alternate cable. Once the monitor detects that it has a higher than 60Hz refresh rate input, it will unlock the overclocking options on the OSD. If you have any general or technical questions, please email me at [email protected] and include case #N200335704 for reference.

      Thank you for choosing ASUS!

      Best regards,
      Lane

    Awesome Monitor but a few quirks

    Pro: - Color accurate out of the box - HDR (blinding at times) - Little to no Backlight bleed due to FALD - Gsync Con - Expensive - Windows Scaling sucks due to its size (32 inch would have been the better option if it was available) - Will need a beefy PC to run - Fan noise from the monitor can be annoying If you have the money, it's the best monitor for gaming out there. Too bad Asus rollout for the Ultrawide is longer than expected as that would be the best monitor to run with the advantage of HDR. I hope nvidia gets a more affordable chipset without needing a fan to cool the monitor in the future.

    So this monitor is pretty much the best you can get when it comes to a 27” gaming monitor. 4K, G-Sync, high refresh rate, decently fast IPS panel.... but none of this is necessary. You won’t notice a difference between a 1440 display and this. The HDR and G-Sync is noticeable, but the 4K just isn’t a large enough difference to depict. Interestingly enough you will not get 4K HDR @144hz either. At least not through a display port. With HDR enabled you cap out at 120hz which is more than enough. If you have the money burning a hole in your pocket, don’t miss out! But I wouldn’t prioritize this monitor in any sort of budget. Also anyone trying to figure out how to remove the hideous stand in order to mount it properly, there are no instructions regarding bezel removal. Stick a screwdriver in there and pry it up.

    Pros: In terms of color, picture quality, and performance - this is, of course, the top of the line and it is unbeatable. Only the Predator X27 can compete against this. They are both great monitors. Cons: The stand looks cool but it is functionally awful, especially if you have a standard desk. You will need a very deep desk to have it at a comfortable enough distance away from you. If you have a smaller desk, it will run over your keyboard and also your mousepad. I bought a monitor stand and mounted this on there to fix the issue. I see many people saying that the price is an issue, but is anyone that is really buying this worried about the price? At this price point, unless you're well off and very comfortable purchasing multiple of these, you shouldn't be buying monitors at this level. There's plenty of great monitors that you can buy that are not this monitor - if you're struggling with money or if this is very expensive to you, look somewhere else. As far as fan noise, I can't hear it at all. If you like to wear headphones when gaming, it won't matter anyways.

    My challenge was looking for a monitor a with excellent gaming performance for pc and console gaming. I also needed a set that was color accurate for photo and video editing (Sony alpha shooter here, IG account @jfranco328). During my research, this monitor offered excellence performance in both areas. I have had it for a few weeks now and have not had a single issue. No noisey fan, no dead pixels. It's just picture perfect. HDR looks great by the way. Definitely happy with this purchase.

    If you were like me, you probably had a heart attack trying to find a G-SYNC compatible 4K HDR monitor for your computer. You could find a 4K but not HDR, or no G-SYNC. I have always bought NVIDIA cards becuase of a then ATI issue way back when...actually i bought 3dfx cards but I digress. This monitor is gorgeous and screams quality all over it. I don't use it for just gaming - I also do work on it, and everything pops in 4K at 150% text size. Little touches like the ROG light on the stand is very cool. This monitor is absolutely not for everyone. At a minimum I'd say get a 1080TI card to run it (using a lower card probably isn't going to get you frame rates you want). I have not tried the 2xxx series GeoForce cards yet. I figured I'll enjoy 4K on this brand new monitor with an old card rather than with a new card and a non-HDR 4K GSync monitor. I hope the price comes down to the masses, otherwise do what I do and save up those rewards zone certificates!

    I bought this monitor when I was able to get it price matched for a deep discount. I would not recommend paying the full price on this as the value is just not there. I do like that this is a G-Sync monitor, with an IPS screen, and a high refresh, all at 4k. That cannot be beat. I have a 2k (QHD) monitor by ASUS right next to this one, and I actually think that monitors colors and display look higher quality than this one (except for the resolution of course). The fan noise on this thing is also crazy. When it really ramps up, it is louder than my PC fans.

    Everything is crisp and clear on this monitor and the 4k looks great. Got a price match from a local computer store (chain) so that was a bonus... but still in the top shelf price range. Technology will stay current for a few years to come. If you have the money, buy this monitor.

    Such an amazing 4k HDR monitor the image quality looks amazing! You diffidently need a high end graphics card for this bad boy tho. A lil fyi I got this monitor price match with amazon so i got a hell of a deal! If you can afford it just buy it and get the extended warranty. So far mine been working great no dead pixels. I have read other people having the monitor fan making a horrible loud noise so far mine hasn't granted ive only had it for a week overall worth the money.

    This is a great monitor but it is a little on the expensive side. My cost for this monitor was around 2,000.00 wich was a little overpriced. For the price you pay for this monitor there is no internal speaker in this monitor so you will have to connect a audio device for sound.

    Good image quality overall, but the active cooling system makes a ridiculous amount of noise. It also rarely reaches its high refresh rate, usually staying within 80Hz. When in HDR mode it switches on and off occasionally staying blank for several seconds. This isn't very pleasant. I was expecting much more from it. After 1.5y of using it I am moving away towards Samsung.

    The sharpness of this monitor goes beyond expectations -- It does for my PC what Apple did for iPhone several years ago (i.e., RetinaDisplay). Although I haven't had the opportunity to game on it yet (which I certainly intend to), the HDR capability is impressive and will add more realism to the in-game effects. Lastly, the G-Sync feature of this monitor is the highest flavor of such (G-Sync Ultimate). Truly is an awesome monitor -- only downside is its price...:)

    I wanted a 4K monitor to use that was capable of getting better than 60fps and I got that with this monitor, but it’s not worth the money. I think as the technology progresses we’ll see better pricing on these type of monitors. So wait! 1440 is perfect and a quarter the price.

    The perfect monitor. I love everything about this monitor. The colors are stunning and you're also future proof safe. A lot of people complain about the fan this monitor has but I have used it extensively and I cannot hear a single thing. I wish they made this monitor in a bigger size like 32 or 34 but for now I am happy with how this monitor performs.

    The monitor is definitely worth the price. The HDR and GSync both compliment the 4k at 144hz. So far extremely nice. But if your coming from a high end 2k monitor you might want to test out the 4k model first and see if you really can tell the difference.

    This monitor is really future proof . You can not even take advantage of all the monitors features yet . The colors are brilliant, speed is amazing and just a great machine for photo editing and movies . Trying to push the monitor for gaming is another story . I run a 2080 , 64gb 3600mhz ram , nvme drive and can hit minimum FPS . In the future the monitor will become cheaper and you will be able to push its limits , but not for a long while . This thing is a beast enough said Photo and movie editing 5stars Movies 5 stars Gaming 4 stars now Future proofing 5stars This is the future of monitors - worth the cost if you can afford it
