The ROG PG27UQ is Asus’ new flagship gaming monitor that boasts a mind-boggling set of features and a price to match. This 27-inch IPS LCD panel has a 4K resolution and can refresh at up to 144Hz – something no monitor has been able to do before – and it boasts true HDR capability thanks to full-array local dimming (FALD).
