 Thanks to Squarespace for sponsoring this video from CES 2017. Build your online store or website at the link in the video description. Um, so... Wha- what is it? It's like it's like I've got this guy watching me while I try and make my video here. It's weirding me out, but that's okay because nothing can ruin my mood right now. Okay, monitors used to be 60 Hertz, and then we got overclocking to like 75 85. Then we got 120 Hertz, night and day difference, then a couple incremental improvements, 144 165, and now it's game-changing again. And by game I mean gaming. Oh yes. This is the ROG Swift PG258Q, the first 240 Hertz 24 and a half inch gaming monitor that I have had the pleasure of laying my eyes on. And holy cow, just sitting down and knocking things over and moving the mouse, it is immediately noticeable. It's not like necessarily some other high refreshment monitors out there because even without ultra low motion blur enabled, this thing is actually doing pretty darn well in terms of not leaving motion trails behind the cursor. Now obviously I don't have it in the lab yet, but I've been informed we will be getting one very soon, but my initial impression is this is freaking impressive. So it features Nvidia G-Sync technology. You've got a DisplayPort in or HDMI in, whichever you prefer, and it's got a built-in USB 3 hub. In terms of the styling it's what has become kind of the ROG way. So you've got a nice slim bezel, a couple kind of gamer-y accents, but the most sort of, let's say gaudy, how you say, of which the underglow ROG logo thing, you can turn that off in the menu. Now those of you who are wondering, it does support G-Sync, but the unanimous opinion from the Asus guys in the room is that the real story here is not necessarily G-Sync, but rather the fact that now if you turn G-Sync off, you can run ultra low motion blur all the way up to the full 240 Hertz, which is going to give you like super sharp, fast-moving images at an extremely high refresh rate, which is going to be critical for competitive gamers or filthy casuals like me who just like having the best possible experience, even though they suck. It's got the full range of adjustments, and as we're making all these adjustments to the stand you'll probably notice, yes, this is in fact a TN panel, but I gotta tell you guys, outside of looking at it from the bottom, where really it does look awful, side to side viewing angles, very good, and colors, again just subjectively, I'm just out of show, looking pretty good here. I am super excited about this one. That is to say, as long as I can afford the approximately $500 price tag. I never said the resolution. Okay, hold on, let me think for a second. Did I miss anything else critical? You know what, let's just let's just do a totally awkward shot here. It's a 1080p monitor. I forgot to mention the resolution.
