ASUS ROG Strix 27” 4K HDR USB-C Gaming Monitor (XG27UCG) – UHD (3840x2160) Dual Mode (4K 160Hz or FHD 320Hz), 1ms, Fast IPS, Extreme Low Motion Blur Sync, G-SYNC Compatible, AI Gaming, 3yr Warranty

Really impressed with this monitor. The 4K resolution is super sharp and makes everything look clean and detailed, whether I’m gaming, watching videos, or just doing everyday work. Colors look vibrant and accurate, and HDR adds a nice boost in contrast without feeling overdone. The size at 27” feels like a sweet spot for 4K, giving plenty of screen space without being overwhelming. It’s also very smooth in performance, and everything feels responsive, especially for gaming. The build quality is solid and the design looks clean on the desk. Overall, it’s a great all-around monitor that works well for both gaming and productivity.

I’ve been using this monitor for a few days now (received in January 2026), and so far my experience has been excellent. My graphics card is an ASUS TUF Gaming NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Super OC Edition, and at first, I had some doubts about reaching the full 160Hz at 4K in Windows. I followed many comments and reviews online and tried different cables. I even bought a certified HDMI 2.1 (48Gbps) cable, thinking that would solve the issue. While that cable works perfectly, with HDMI I could only reach 4K @ 120Hz uncompressed, which seems to be a limitation of how this monitor and NVIDIA GPUs handle HDMI. However, the DisplayPort cable included in the box works perfectly. Using DisplayPort, I can get 4K @ 160Hz in Windows without any issues on my RTX 4080 Super. On macOS, I was also able to reach 160Hz using HDMI, which worked smoothly. The dual mode is another big advantage: I tested 1080p at 320Hz, and it works very well for competitive gaming. Motion is extremely smooth and responsive. Regarding performance, DisplayPort uses Display Stream Compression (DSC) to achieve 160Hz at 4K. This adds only about 0.1–0.3 ms of latency, which is completely negligible in real gaming. In practice, the higher refresh rate reduces overall input lag compared to 120Hz, so gaming actually feels more responsive. Image quality is excellent, colors look vibrant, and build quality feels solid. I haven’t noticed any input lag issues, stuttering, or visual artifacts. I’ve only had the monitor for a short time, so I may update this review in the future if anything changes. For now, based on my experience, I’m very satisfied and giving it 5 stars. I will also upload a video as evidence showing the refresh rates working correctly. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a versatile and high-performance 4K gaming monitor.

Absolutely hands down the BEST monitor I've ever purchased. A true gaming monitor with a multitude of adjustments (height, swivel, screen rotation, etc). Picture quality is absolutely incredible 4K (seems higher) with zero issues of ghosting, fading, or color loss. Deep dark blacks and brilliant colors. The stand is heavy duty and of quality construction. Added bonus of RGB color changing lights on the logo at the back of the monitor. Would buy again! AAA+++

Loving this monitor so far. These monitors eliminated the use of a docking station because i wanted to share two external screens. These monitors allowed me to do that and use my laptop monitor while sending back my docking station. Input switching was unknown to me and its a great technology. Great price on some great monitors.

The quality of this monitor is amazing, and the RGB lighting on the back is lovely; it's definitely a worthwhile purchase.
