Overview
Tiny desk, big refresh rate: the ASUS TUF Gaming VG249QM5F is a 23.8-inch Full HD Fast IPS monitor that reaches 260 Hz with a 0.3 ms MPRT response. It works with FreeSync, G-Sync and Adaptive-Sync, has two HDMI 2.1 ports and built-in speakers, and weighs just 3.4 kg. It's an easy fit for esports on a modest PC. At Full HD text is less crisp, and it needs an arm to change height. It's a handy pick for a small esports desk where space matters as much as frame rate.
