The ASUS PG259QN is one of the best gaming monitors available for serious competitive gaming thanks to its 360Hz refresh rate, fast pixel response time, and NVIDIA G-SYNC. It also offers plenty of additional features, such as ULMB, ergonomic design with RGB lighting, and more!

This monitor excels at everything it aims to do, and Asus deserves some serious credit for what it's been able to accomplish. This is a stellar monitor, though I'd argue it's only worthwhile for a very small, select group of pro-level gamers. $700 is awfully steep, and I'd argue a 240Hz panel like Asus' $400 TUF Gaming VG279QM would be a much better value proposition for most esports gamers. If you play less competitive single-player games, I'd recommend a larger 1440p display with a slightly lower refresh rate like the ViewSonic Elite XG270QG. If you want the best that esports displays have to offer, though, the PG259QN should be at the top of your list.
