Overclocked 170 Hz Refresh Rate & 1 ms Response Time
A fast 170 Hz overclocked refresh rate combined with a 1 ms response time offers reduced blurring and input lag. In turn, this enables better tracking and more responsive commands that feel more on-time. The high refresh rate is only available through the DisplayPort input.
ASUS Extreme Low Motion Blur Sync (ELMB)
ASUS Extreme Low Motion Blur Sync further helps to eliminate smearing and motion blur and can be enabled together with Adaptive-Sync.
