About this product
The ASUS ROG Strix XG27ACMES-W is a 27-inch gaming monitor with 2560x1440 resolution, 255Hz refresh rate, and 1ms response time. It offers 350 cd/m² brightness and a 1300:1 contrast ratio. Designed for gaming, it features the ROG Strix design language with a black and white aesthetic. Priced at $380, it caters to competitive gamers seeking high refresh rate and fast response.
Our take
This ASUS ROG Strix monitor delivers a 255Hz refresh rate (overclocked) and 1ms response, perfect for competitive shooters. The 1440p resolution balances clarity and performance. The design looks sharp with a white bezel and RGB lighting. Color accuracy is decent for an IPS panel, but the 1300:1 contrast ratio is typical—blacks aren't as deep as VA monitors. The stand is sturdy with height, tilt, and swivel adjustments. At $380, it's a solid choice for esports, but you'll pay extra for the ROG branding.
