Overview
Aimed at gamers, the Asus VZ279HG is a 27-inch IPS display with a 1920 × 1080 panel that refreshes at up to 120 Hz. It offers 81 ppi pixel density, 250 nits typical brightness, 1500:1 static contrast and 99% sRGB coverage. Variable refresh covers 48–120 Hz, quotes 1 ms MPRT response and supports Adaptive-Sync. Inputs include 1× HDMI 1.4 and D-sub. The stand tilts only. There are no speakers, and it weighs 3.18 kg with the stand. It suits players who want smooth motion for fast games. The main trade-off: 81 ppi at 27 inches makes text look softer than on sharper panels.
