These gaming monitors consciously strike a balance between essential gaming features and affordability. Both displays are equipped with a 1920x1080 (Full HD) resolution and 3-side borderless IPS screen for immersive multi-monitor gaming.

“ViewSonic is always in pursuit of offering the latest and greatest in gaming technology,” said Kendall Miller, global gaming manager for ViewSonic ELITE. “These exciting new additions to the ELITE gaming monitor series deliver displays capable of providing the speed and clarity that gamers have been searching for.”
ELITE RGB & OSD Software
The first app to launch for ELITE gaming monitors, the ELITE RGB Controller, will allow easier access and control over a compatible monitor’s RGB accent backlighting. Users can choose from different lighting modes or customize their RGB colors from a collection of more than 16.8 million colors for a personalized RGB gaming atmosphere. An OSD software application, the ELITE Display Controller is capable of controlling both monitor display options and RGB ambient lighting modes. With the click of a mouse, users can customize display modes and change settings without physically interacting with the monitor’s OSD.
ELITE Ally
The ELITE Ally peripheral is a USB-connected touch-screen device that allows gamers to quickly access on-screen display settings, such as game modes, adaptive sync, HDR, brightness, contrast, RGB lighting and more. Users can fine-tune their gaming experience without touching the monitor or opening their ELITE display controller software. Currently, the ELITE Ally peripheral is only compatible with select ViewSonic ELITE gaming monitors.

The XG270QG and XG270 will be available worldwide in November 2019 with the following estimated street pricing:
Model ESP
- XG270QG $599.99 (USD)

I assume these use the same LG panel as the new LG 27GL850. I think the LG one is a bit cheaper, but without the RGB stuff.

Nano IPS, means great colours and terrible contrast ratio. Although 550nits is brighter than the average "HDR" monitor.

It been long time since I owned Viewsonic Monitor, Think last one I had was one there High end CRT back in the day, sadly I no longer have it.
1ms for IPS is acceptable to me well as far as lcd/led response times go anyway, but there contrast and uniformity is still turn off for me.
normal IPS has horrid contrast why would "Nano" be any better?
