Asus ROG Strix XG27VQ 27-inch gaming monitor announced

Spotted earlier on Computex, now announced. Meet the Strix XG27VQ 27-inch gaming monitor from ASUS ROG. This new monitor in the XG series is a 1800R curved Full HD monitor with refresh rate of 144Hz, Low Motion Blur and Adaptive-Sync (FreeSync). 

The ROG Strix XG27VQ is a Full HD display with an 144Hz refresh rate. Its gaming-inspired design integrates onboard ASUS Aura RGB lighting and a customizable light signature enables projection of a unique lighting display on the surface below the monitor, adding ambience to any gaming setup or LAN party. 

ROG Strix XG27VQ wraps its 27-inch panel around an 1800R curve, extending the user’s field of vision to give them the feeling of being fully immersed in the game.

With a144Hz refresh rate, fast-moving visuals pose no problem for ROG Strix XG27VQ. There's no frustrating lag, so users will enjoy the upper hand in fast-paced first-person-shooters, racers, real-time strategy and sports titles. ROG Strix XG27VQ features the latest ASUS-exclusive Extreme Low Motion Blur technology, which eliminates smearing and motion blur, and makes objects in motion look sharper. Adaptive-Sync (FreeSync) technology delivers the smoothest, fastest, and most breathtaking gaming visuals imaginable by eliminating screen tearing and choppy frame rates, as well as minimizing display stutter and input lag.

Gaming-inspired aesthetics with a customizable light signature

ROG Strix XG27VQ continues the design legacy of ROG with its bold, streamlined design and iconic tripod stand. It also features ASUS Aura RGB lighting on the back and offers several lighting modes to provide a cool and stylish backdrop to any gaming setup.

ROG Strix XG27VQ also features a unique light signature that lets gamers create and customize light-projection effects. It includes two ROG logo covers and one blank cover that users can customize with a marker to create their own unique light projections to enhance the desktop surface and gaming area.

Exclusive ASUS GamePlus and ASUS DisplayWidget Software

ROG Strix XG27VQ features the ASUS GamePlus hotkey for in-game enhancements. The crosshair overlay provides four different crosshair options, while the onscreen timer positioned on the left of the screen helps gamers keep track of elapsed gaming time. The FPS counter lets users know how smoothly the game is running. The display alignment function provides three alignment lines on all four sides of the monitor to take the guesswork out of multi-display setups.

This is one of those odd articles absent of some basic info.. No real mention of resolution other than the words "Full HD"... Connectivity? IPS, VA, TN????

*update
Happy to see the article was updated by adding the specs.

Asus can f*** off. They postponed the monitor everyone was waiting for (PG27UQ 4K 144hz Qdot) and gave absolutely no word on a release date for the PG35VQ (3440x1440 curved 200hz Qdot).

It's 2017, 1080p monitors are so 2006. I wish they'd stop flooding the market with more out-dated tech.

I guess that the panel manufacturer couldn't deliver in time.

As for 1080p monitors, if those wouldn't sell in 2017 they simply wouldn't make them, our personal opinion doesn't really matter.
Just take a look at single display resolution on Steams survey:
1366 x 768 21.53%
1680 x 1050 3.19%
1920 x 1080 48.78%
2560 x 1440 2.16%
3840 x 2160 0.86%
