ASUS VG259QM Reviews

Display Ports are broken. Only HDMI works.

By Ken

After a few months the screen kept going black. I found people online with the same problem with this monitor. After trying many fancy cables, the Display Ports are broken. Only the HDMI input works. I sent it in for repair multiple times with video proof of the black screen and the CPU and GPU temperatures running fine. Asus kept sending it back with the same problem. I can't afford another monitor, so this will have to do. It works well with the HDMI input, but I wish I could use the Display Ports and run my HDMI from my pc to my TV. I do not recommend this monitor.

Great monitor for 1080p fast-pacing games

By Dai

Great ergonomics, colors look great for an average user, no jitter or stutters thanks to ELBM + G-Sync. At the time of buying it is the same price as the VG259Q, which is a 144Hz, non-ELMB Sync variant, so it was a great deal. If you are sensitive to color correction, you can calibrate it. HDR-wise, I don't use it so can't tell you, but a rule of thumb is if the monitor's peak brightness is less than 1000 nits, chances are it's bad for HDR. Overall, great monitor for 1080p users. 9.5/10

Very nice monitor. I was space constrained hence the 25 size. Has all of the features one needs to game at 1080P. Much better picture than my VG248QE which moved to the Spouse's desktop.
