The ROG Swift PG279Q delivers 2K/WQHD (2560 x 1440) visuals and features the NVIDIA G-SYNC technology to eliminate screen tearing, minimize stuttering, and reduce input lag. The ROG Swift PG279Q is also the world’s first display with a 165Hz refresh rate for incredibly-smooth gaming visuals. The gaming monitor boasts a number of Ultra-Low Blue Light and Flicker-Free technologies to protect users’ eyes during marathon gaming sessions. In addition, ASUS-exclusive enhancements like GamePlus and GameVisual technologies give users an advantage in the gaming arena.
Lifelike gaming visuals
The ROG Swift PG279Q delivers superior images with outstanding colors thanks to IPS technology. Users can enjoy wide 178-degree viewing angles with minimal distortion and color shift even when viewing the display from extreme positions.
Ultra-smooth and seamless gameplay
The ROG Swift Series is designed to provide the fastest and smoothest gaming experiences imaginable. The ROG Swift PG279Q is the world’s first display with a 165Hz refresh rate to reduce lag and motion blur, giving gamers the upper hand in fast-paced first-person-shooters, racing, real-time strategy, and sports games. Users can select between 60, 120, and 144Hz refresh rates on the fly with the help of the Turbo Key. To fully experience ROG Swift PG279Q’s 165Hz refresh rate, the user must have an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 or higher graphics processor.
Also, the ROG Swift PG279Q is equipped with NVIDIA G-SYNC display technology for smooth, seamless gameplay. This technology synchronizes the display's refresh rate to the PC’s NVIDIA GeForce GTX graphics processor to eliminate screen tearing, and minimize display stutter and input lag.
Gamer-centric features
ROG Swift Series displays feature the ASUS-exclusive GamePlus hotkey to give gamers crosshair overlays, timer functions, and a frames per second (FPS) counter. The crosshair overlay provides four different crosshair options, so users can select the one that best suits the game currently being played. There’s also an onscreen timer that can be positioned on the left of the display to keep tracked of elapsed game time; while the FPS counter lets users know how smoothly the game is running.
ASUS-exclusive GameVisual technology provides up to six preset display modes (Scenery, Racing, Cinema, RTS/RPG, FPS, and sRGB) to suit different game genres. This unique feature can be easily accessed through a hotkey or the On Screen Display (OSD) settings menu.
Extensive connectivity options
The ROG PG279Q has a wide array of connectivity options including DisplayPort 1.2 and HDMI. Two USB 3.0 ports provide convenient pass-through connectivity at speeds of up to 10-times that of USB 2.0, and they can also quick-charge mobile devices.
The gaming monitor also features a pair of 2-watt speakers and a 3.5mm earphone jack for immersive in-game audio. An ergonomic cable-management design feature helps organize and hide cables to keep the gaming area tidy.
