ASUS TUF Gaming VG279QM has a refresh rate of 280Hz

It started shipping last month already but ASUS released the VG279QM monitor in their TUF range of products. And while we feel the refresh rate race has passed the point of common sense, it's listed at 280 hz. 

We already reported about this monitor in Q4 2019, but it's available, the launch of ASUS "TUF Gaming VG279QM" , a gaming liquid crystal display that supports the refresh rate of 280 Hz, which claims to be the world's fastest monitor.

Vertical sync supports Adaptive-Sync and G-Sync Compatible and also supports "Extreme Low Motion Blur Sync" which uses ASUS "ELMB" and vertical sync technology at the same time.
