Superb review, thanks: I'm getting eye strain working (CAD) late at night, and I also game. I wanted to increase to 1440p from 1200p, and increase the Hz a bit, without worrying about the complications of the super-high frequency panels (It seems like tweaking and compatibility and exotic considerations start being Necessary at high refresh rates, requiring a Byzantine knowledge of monitor functionality). Without the loss of Colors. I think, especially for the price tag, this looks like a winner for me.

It finally arrived, andno complaints. I can immediately see an improvement while drafting. In terms of the Color, I never realized how Blue my Dell monitor was- the color representation is far softer/more natural on the ProArt, and for that alone I think it was worth it.

The BenQ PD2705Q has slightly higher contrast - pcmonitors.info/reviews/benq-pd2705q/#Contrast_and_brightness. Some of the high refresh rate models with wide gamut have somewhat higher contrast, such as the Gigabyte M27Q (~1200:1) - pcmonitors.info/reviews/gigabyte-m27q/#Contrast_and_brightness. No IPS model comparable to these offer significantly higher contrast than that.

I got the monitor few days ago, I'm noticing some flickering when Adaptive Sync is enabled - I have GTX 1650 Super. It is noticeable at full screen and windowed modes. Otherwise I like it, only the matte coating is a bit too light for my liking (compared to the LG 27GN800-B), but the white looks very clean with no graininess. I think I prefer 27GN800's coating at the cost of some graininess. Still not sure about if I want to keep it or not... the only reason I got it because wanted to see if 75 Hz monitors look better than 144 Hz one - in terms of pixel inversion/ glow and uniformity, also viewing angles. I do like 144 Hz fluid visuals more... but at what cost... comparing this monitor with LG 27GN800-B ... it is a DAY and NIGHT of a difference. The Asus looks so much better in almost every possible aspect.

Thanks for the detailed review. I bought the monitor on your recommendation and am especially pleased with the text sharpness in typical office applications. The Gigabyte M27Q is of course better suited for gaming, but I'm still more convinced by the PA278QV. It could only be a bit less reflective. The only problem is the HDMI 1.4 connector; I guess correctly that even with the help of an HDMI 2.0 EDID adapter I can't enter a 4k 60fps singal to get a downsampled image in 1440p?
@PCMonitors2 жыл бұрын
Glad you're enjoying it overall! The monitor doesn't include a '4K' downsampling mode and as you point out doesn't include HDMI 2.1, so it won't accept a '4K' signal at 60Hz no matter what you do. Not sure if an EDID adaptor could add support for a '4K' signal at lower refresh rates, but I doubt it.

@@PCMonitors Thanks for the assessment! :-) It's really hard to find a monitor that works for both daily office tasks and gaming. If only the PS5 could output 1440p... I also tested the recommended M27Q, but with the frequent use of PDF documents, the display is too uncomfortable for the eyes, even with cleartype. It's a shame, because otherwise I had nothing to complain about with the Gigabyte. About the Asus Pa278QV I find that the display is noticeably smoother at 75Hz than at 60Hz. Since I don't play competitive shooters, but only co-op shooters like Borderlands, I have nothing to complain about. My copy also only has perceptible backlight bleeding on the right edge. The IPS glow is relatively weak; both are more noticeable on my Eizo Foris 2434, but its contrast is visibly better. Overall, there are few criticisms, except for the lack of downscaling from 4k to 1440p, but that's Sony's fault.

Hey, It's me again. :D I have a question about the PA278QV, I do notice flickering (brightness flicker, NOT PWM) when adaptive sync is active (for example) monitor is set at 75Hz, while limiting to 60fps/60Hz in-game. My graphics card is GTX 1650 Super and suspect this is the reason. What GPU did you use for the test? Would It be better if I buy an AMD GPU for the upgrade? I'm still not sure if I want to keep the Dell G2724D. If I put aside the artifacts, I started noticing the horizontal brightness loss at 38° - it gets darker at really wide angles. Compared to PA278QV's way more consistent brightness (loss starting from 52°).

It really depends on how much you want to spend. You already said the PA278QV was an "expensive monitor" where you live, so the PA279CV would surely be quite a stretch. It's no better in terms of colour output, it's really the extra resolution you're paying for. That's nice to have, but not essential and not as important as colour accuracy for your purposes. 27" WQHD is already pretty good in that respect, so it's not something I'd prioritise unless you're truly comfortable paying the asking price. Whether it's worth it would be an individual budget consideration.

From the written review ( pcmonitors.info/reviews/asus-pa278qv/#Contrast_and_brightness ): "This is a very high frequency, sufficient to be considered ‘flicker free’ under the TÜV Rheinland certification system. No PWM artifacts were observed during motion and we didn’t experience accelerated eye fatigue compared to using a screen with DC dimming. Everybody’s eyes are different and we appreciate some users would prefer the reassurance of DC dimming for backlight regulation. Most users shouldn’t worry about PWM at such a high frequency, even if they’ve found models with more usual PWM frequencies (e.g. 480Hz or below) bothersome. There are many factors to consider when it comes to viewing comfort on a monitor beyond PWM usage."

The video is heavily overexposed, so it's not useful for assessing such a thing. 'IPS glow' is at a moderate level on this model and shown from a regular viewing angle in the review. Backlight bleed or other dark uniformity issues vary between units - and than can bring out 'IPS glow' more strongly.

The key is positioning of the camera - central and >2m back to eliminate 'IPS glow'. Most IPS models look like what you've shown if you capture them close up with automatic camera settings or high exposure. As for camera settings, I'd simply recommend making manual adjustment until it is close to what you see to the eye. But simply observing the bleed / clouding in isolation and seeing if there are clear issues there is probably more helpful than trying to capture them. See the capture in the written review for reference (but how exactly that image looks depends on your own system, screen and even lighting) - pcmonitors.info/reviews/asus-pa278qv/#Contrast_and_brightness.

@@PCMonitors Thanks for the explanations, I repeated the test by deactivating the automatic settings and adjusting the exposure in different modes, the photos are in the description under the video, I used the manual settings of the Footej Camera 2 app, now the photo and video do not they should be overexposed, unfortunately there is enough noise, is it possible now to evaluate the IPS GLOW level? what do you think about it ? kzbin.info/www/bejne/oHO2XmtqeJt5gKs

That looks entirely normal. 🙂

I wish they didn't have that ruler at the bottom. Destroys the minimalist design. And it's not of much use. We can enable the virtual ruler on the screen anytime.

Do you have the monitor or are you basing this off photos and videos? It's really very subtle and I gave it next to no thought when I was using the monitor. I agree though, it's something only a few people would use and an on-screen solution that can be toggled should suffice for them.

Regarding the stand (you asked if it was 'wobbly' in another comment). I don't know what people who say that are comparing it to or what rickety old desk they're using, but I found stand and overall build quality was solid. If I had problems with excessive wobbling or otherwise I would've mentioned it.

I do like the fact that the screen is low matte. Probably the best option after glossy monitors like S2419H.

I have been wondering about if I give up the high refresh rate monitors should I re-buy this one or there is an alternative option to explore? Thanks... (still waiting for that refund).... @PCMonitors the design of the monitor is bothering me and that PWM ~20 kHz flicker, btw how did you measured it?
@PCMonitors11 ай бұрын
It was measured with an oscilloscope, I've given as much feedback as I can on this. If you want a 75Hz option with good all-round performance this is a key one to consider, there's an MSI alternative we recommend considering but I can't confirm its backlight dimming method (DC more likely) or much more technical detail on it but people are generally happy with it - pcmonitors.info/articles/best-monitors-for-productivity/.
