Overview

The ASUS ROG Strix 5K XG27JCG is a 27-inch Fast IPS gaming monitor for players who also want unusually sharp desktop detail. Its 5120 × 2880 resolution gives editing tools and text more room than a conventional 4K screen, while 180 Hz keeps compatible games fluid. A 0.3 ms GTG response rating and HDMI 2.1 inputs suit a modern gaming setup. USB-C handles video but supplies only 15 W, so it is not a full-power laptop dock. Check graphics-card compatibility before planning to run 5K at maximum refresh.

  • 180 Hz maximum refresh for gaming systems
  • 27-inch Fast IPS panel with wide viewing
