Product Information

High-Hz isn't just for esports anymore. Though the highest Hz is still expensive and mainly of interest to bigger-budget users. Information of the number of pixels in a unit of length. With the decrease of the display size and the increase of its resolution, the pixel density increases.

But not the PG259QNR. The stand Asus built for this display absolutely plants it on your desk, and won’t let it budge no matter how aggressive you get with your gameplay.The PG259QNR is small and doesn’t have a high resolution, though, and only the best esports players will see a notable improvement from this display. Also bear in mind that rival displays offer larger resolutions and screens for less cash if you’re willing to compromise on the refresh rate. You should buy it if… Asus’ on-screen display (OSD) isn’t the most attractive, but it’s functional and extremely easy to navigate. The monitor has one main directional toggle that brings up the main menu when interacted with in any way. This menu has segments for enabling Nvidia Reflex Analyzer, a gaming menu with settings related to gaming such as an FPS counter, cheating crosshair, dark boost, overdrive settings, and more. You don’t have to be an international esports pro to want the best gaming experience possible, and when it comes to speed and smoothness, nothing delivers like the PG259QNR. The ratio between the horizontal and the vertical side of the display. Some of the standard and widely used aspect ratios are 4:3, 5:4, 16:9 and 16:10. If you’re an esports player then you’re going to be travelling to lots of events when the pandemic has eased. The PG259QNR is ideal for frequent travel thanks to its small, sturdy and adjustable frame.

I should compliment Toms Hardware for improved mainstream-writing description of how motion blur is reduced -- doubling Hz halves display motion blur, as an alternative to strobing. Yesterday's media used to dismiss high Hz, or was not familiar with the benefits of high Hz. There’s no doubt about it: the Asus ROG Swift PG259QNR is the fastest gaming monitor on the planet, and the butter-smooth gameplay is paired with an impressive response time, build quality and underlying image quality.That’s a bold boast in a market full of exciting, high-end products. The 360Hz refresh rate on this panel is paired with Nvidia G-Sync, sturdy design, plenty of RGB LEDs and a 1080p resolution that will no doubt appeal to esports players. Information about the minimum amount of time, in which the pixels change from one color to another. Very often the manufacturer provides the response time for transition from grey-to-grey (G2G).

Happily, G-Sync works with both Nvidia and AMD graphics cards, but what’s certain is that you’ll need a powerful graphics card to run games on this display – an RTX 3070 or something faster being the ideal. Where the display does stand out is in its brightness and contrast performance. Asus claims a brightness of 400 cd/m 2, but our sample exceeded 415 cd/m 2. The panel also exceeded its quoted contrast ratio, with a contrast of 1200:1, which is an impressive performance for an IPS panel. The white point was exactly at 6500K, which is great.

Ultra-Responsive Performance

So, if you buy this display, do ensure you have a processor like Intel’s Core i9-9900K, Core i9-10900K, or wait for AMD’s Ryzen 5000 CPUs, as these are expected to deliver staggering single-core performance.
