ASUS Also Shows PG258Q - a 24.5-in monitor with 240 Hz panel
But wait there's more. If you think that 180 Hz in the previous news-item already was a lot, how about 240 Hz ? No I have no clue who would actually need 240 Hz but ASUS is working on the PG258Q, a 24.5 Inch monitor with 1920x1080 resolution and Gsync Module.
There aren't many technical details that Asus announced. The manufacturer speaks of a response time of 1ms , it is almost certain that this is a monitor with TN panel. The screen comes in a color scheme with titanium and copper hues , says Asus.
In the base are incorporated LEDs , a light on the desk. The monitor only works with DisplayPort 1.3 / 1.4.

Fun fact, like all TV high refresh rates, those are extrapolated and not actual refresh rate.
Fun fact, Sony had 240Hz Playstation monitor years ago, even if in 3D mode.

The monitor is geared toward the competitive fps scene.
Most CS:GO pros play at sub 1080p resolution, they also play in extremely bright environments (at lans) and they don't have space for anything more than 24 inches in those environments, nor do they want it. When I played CS:GO I would switch back to my 24 inch BenQ TN monitor from my 27" XB270HU because it severely impacted my play.

This has to be one of the ugliest monitors I've ever seen.
That monitor stand just... just doesn't work.
