ASUS has released a new gaming monitor that prioritizes extreme refresh rates over resolution. The ROG Strix XG27ACNS lets users switch between three resolution modes to hit refresh rates up to 920Hz. This flexibility matters because lower resolutions reduce the graphical load on your GPU. Gamers with mid-range cards can still maintain smooth frame rates at high speeds.
ASUS introduces a new gaming monitor with tri-mode resolution switching
The display features a 27-inch Fast IPS LCD panel. It supports QHD resolution at 475Hz, Full HD at 620Hz, and HD at 920Hz. Users can toggle between these modes to balance visual clarity and motion smoothness. The monitor also includes a sibling model called the XG27ACMESR with similar tri-mode switching.
