Where can I find the best settings for this monitor?

Bassam

I just bought this monitor based on your recommendation. I do have two monitor LG 27GL83A-B 27-Inch Ultragear QHD 2560 x 1440 IPS Gaming Monitor, 144Hz for everyday use. Do you have a recommendation for the setting

TFTCentral

Not for those Lg models I’m afraid, only for the Asus. Hope you’re enjoying it too 🙂

Wow the colors are insane.

Based on the setting, if I have a DisplayPort 2.1, I can disable DSC. I do have AMD Radeon RX7900 XTX Taichi, but when I turn off the DSC, I am unable to run the monitor at 540Hz; when I turn on the DSC, I can choose 540Hz.

I’m pretty sure the AMD cards only support UHBR13.5 max and so that’s not sufficient to support the screen without DSC being used I’m afraid

Hello TFT, question regarding this monitor. I’ll start with preface then question. Preface: older oled monitors like the pg27aqdp from 2024 had a 24.5 inch mode which added a delay of around 3-4 ms [1]. There is some rumors this was fixed in firmware update..etc. Question: when using the PG27AQWP-W in its simulated 24.5 inch mode is there increased latency or not. After searching I’ve not found any reliable information regarding this. I’ve found that people that claim this monitor does or using googles ai summary/gpt most of these are just pulling from your older article on pg27aqdp which is from 2024 and might not represent new updates to the 24.5 inch simulated mode. can anyone from ASUS confirm if this mode is or is not supposed to add latency? Has anyone outside of ASUS verified this? [1] https://tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/asus-rog-swift-pg27aqdp#Lag

We've not specifically tested that on either the PG27AQDP firmware update, or on the PG27AQWP-W i'm afraid. my gut tells me it will add a small amount of lag for the additional processing and scaling but I'm not certain

How would you recommend testing it? Is there any hardware available to consumer that would work.

TFTCentral

Not really, it's a complicated area to test accurately. Ultimately a couple of ms is very little, and i don't think people should be concerned about that tbh
