SeekerAsus ROG Swift PG27UQ Gaming Monitor
With its 4K resolution, HDR10 compatibility, G-Sync, and 120Hz refresh rate, the Asus ROG Swift PG27UQ feels like a monitor from the future. Its bezels may be retro-thick, but everything contained within them is impressively built. Unfortunately, without a graphics card from the future to power it, you’re going to be paying a high premium for a combination of resolution and refresh rates you can’t make good use of anytime soon. Despite the jaw-dropping beauty of HDR gaming, it would be wise to wait until we have more games that support it and more powerful GPUs to choose from before committing so large a slice of your budget to a panel like this.
