Product Manuals

Q: Why are all the high end monitors freesync? Only 2 options and there low end with gsync and 27".

A: It keeps costs down. You don't really need Gsync these days. Nvidia Gsync will work with freesync displays

Q: is this mountable?

A: Yes, I have mine mounted with 100X100 VESA mount. FYI, make sure your mount can hold the weight of this giant monitor.

Q: Can this monitor also act as a smart TV? Does this come with a remote? I plan on watching streaming services as well as PC gaming on it.

A: yes and yes

Q: Does this monitor support ARC EARC?

A: Unfortunately, it does not support ARC EARC.

Q: Can I use the HDMI 2.0 ports for my 4K cable box and a soundbar without issues? This will be replacing (being dropped in the exact spot) my current 43" 4K TV is and I want to be sure that it will act both as a TV and gaming monitor. Thanks!

A: Yes, the HDMI 2.0 port can be used for your 4H cable box and sounbar without issue if these meet system requirements of the monitor.

Q: If you use it as a normal tv the volume sounds normal or very low usually barely you can hear it without the headset in the other asus monitor Wondering if this one its just diferent

A: It'll be the same, It's best to use a soundbar.

Q: Will this monitor work great with an M1 Mac mini?

A: This monitor will work great with the Mac mini. You just have to adjust the settings (on the Mac) for font size and task bar size and stuff like that. Otherwise everything seems super small and almost impossible to read.

Q: Will this play 4k Blu-ray movies?

A: Yes, you can review further specs here: https://rog.asus.com/us/monitors/above-34-inches/rog-strix-xg43uq-model/spec

My opinion on the 43" 144Hz 4K ROG Monitor
I bought this monitor to upgrade my gaming experience. I was planning on using it with my PC and PS5. Ill start with the good things I guess, the PS5 works amazing with the monitor on almost all settings. Except sometimes there is flickering when the monitor is on 1000 nitts for HDR brightness. Flickering with the monitor seems to be very consistent when the monitor switches from Dark to Light or vice versa. When using the monitor with PC its just not at all what I was hoping for. It has plenty of issues with the frame rate, brightness, HDR, flickering and It's underwhelming. This leaves me wishing I didnt spend $1400 on a monitor thats only good with consoles. -with all of this said i would only recommend buying this monitor if you are only going to play on a next gen console and dont mind spending a ridiculous amount of money on it. I hope this helps anyone looking to buy this.

Sweet Monitor XBOX/PC/TV, full 4K HDR 120hz, 1ms
Works great with xbox series x/s! Extremely fast with full 4K experience. Lots of extras including built in speakers, cross hair option, remote control and 8k gold hdmi 2.1 cable. Included stand is very sturdy. Requires an Amazon VESA wall mount that will support more than 40 lbs if you want to wall mount. If you want to game in 4K and have a screen size that doubles as a 4K HDR TV this is the monitor I would recommend. Not to big but big enough toenjoy a crystal clear picture.
