ASUS expands TUF Gaming lineup with 27-inch 165Hz monitor

Christopher Nohall August 3, 2020 Featured Tech News, Monitors

ASUS has announced the latest monitor joining its TUF Gaming lineup – The TUF Gaming VG279QL1A. This is a a 27-inch Full HD IPS monitor with a super smooth 165Hz refresh rate, bringing a competitive advantage in games. 

The TUF Gaming VG279QL1A from ASUS sports a 1ms Moving Picture Response Time (MSRP) and features “ASUS Extreme Low Motion Blur” (ELMB) technology that is designed to eliminate ghosting for “sharp gaming visuals with high frame rates”. The 27-inch gaming monitor also comes with “FreeSync Premium technology” that helps get rid of screen tearing and “choppy” frame rates.

ASUS' TUF Gaming VG279QL1A has 125% sRGB and 95% DCI-P3 colour spaces which means that the monitor provides “distinct” colour gradations. The screen features DisplayHDR 400 that helps contrast between the brightest and darkest areas of the screen. For connectivity the monitor from ASUS offers two USB 3.0 ports, DisplayPort 1.2, two HDMI (V2.0), and a 3.5 mm audio jack.

We don't have pricing for the new ASUS TUF Gaming VG279QL1A, but we will keep an eye out for UK pricing and availability.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
