CES 2014: ASUS Announces ROG SWIFT PG278Q Gaming Monitor With Nvidia G-Sync

ASUS today announced the ROG Swift PG278Q 27-inch gaming monitor. The Swift PG278Q features WQHD (2560 x 1440) resolution, 120+ Hz refresh rate, and 1ms response time. It also features ASUS GamePlus and NVIDIA® G-SYNC™ technology.

ASUS GamePlus is an OSD overlay that enables crosshair and timer functions to be displayed on the monitor. Gamers can select from four different crosshair types to suit the gaming environment, while the timer function allows players to track elapsed time in real-time strategy games.

NVIDIA® G-SYNC™ synchronizes the display’s refresh rates to the GPU. It eliminates screen tearing as well as minimizes stutter and input lag.
