ASUS - ROG Swift 360Hz PG259QN 24.5” Fast IPS LCD FHD 1ms G-SYNC Gaming Monitor with HDR (HDMI DisplayPort USB)

One of the fastest displays out there literally no joke, competitive is much easier. Truly is a high end monitor

recently decided to upgrade from my old aoc agon 240hz perfect for esport you can see the smoothness when reaching 360Hz if you are a really competitive person this is your monitor amazing colors and sharpness.

Monitor is great for developing multimedia and gaming. The colors are amazing. Use the hdmi if you must but the faster the connection the better the result for your video card.

Would be a perfect next-gen monitor if it came with HDMI 2.1.

Received this item Friday feb 19 2021 soon as I plugged it in noticed it was flickering a black screen on and off multiple times every minute or so then it would stop then eventually the monitor would just power off for a few seconds then back on and rinse repeat the same issues all over again I tried different display ports and hdmi even another computer same issue persists today I returned it for an exchange hopefully the new one does not do this issue.. you would think the price of this monitor you would not have a power issue with it just wow...

The fastest monitor I have ever seen in my life it’s really good monitor

Upon opening the box, this monitor has a very easy installation process. The monitor lays in vertical position, with the stand/arm in the open. You simply lift the arm while keeping the monitor in the box and then screw in the base, which has finger screws. Once the base is secure, you connect the display port and power cable, and can route them through the center of the stand Simply pull it out of the box at that point and place it on your desk, and plug it in. The panel itself is made of plastic and feels a little flimsy, however the stand is VERY weighty and feels great. The feature spec list looks great too Unfortunately, my monitor was DOA. Upon starting the monitor the screen would flicker and then shut off. I disconnected the display port cable thinking maybe the connection was weak - but even when turning ON the monitor with no input cable, just the power. The screen would show the startup logo (flickering) and then turn off. Same happened when using the OSD menu. The monitor was unfortunately defective out of box. I contacted ASUS support, and unfortunately got a bad phone rep who told me first to return it to where I purchased it for an exchange. The monitor is out of stock everywhere so an exchange is impossible currently. Then I asked if there was some type of RMA. He said they have a 'YOU PAY TO SHIP' and a 10+ business day RMA. Yeah so, I pay for shipping after already paying $30 to ship it from best buy to me, and then go 10+ days of business RMA (especially during covid) and then the monitor is now out of refund/return period at best buy So I had to do the right choice which was refund the monitor at best buy, the best buy customer service rep who handled my return was not tech savvy (although not part of their geek squad service, so can't blame them) but the way they handled the monitor by putting the panel on the table and touching the screen with their hand constantly was not appropriate for the tech. They also opened the box wrong despite an image showing how to remove the monitor from the box. Anyway, it was deemed defective by a geek squad rep and my refund was processed without issue. I don't know if the monitor was damaged in shipping or just defective out of the factory, it shipped in its original box - so if it was damaged in shipping (there was no physical damage to the monitor) then maybe asus needs to package their boxes better. That or QA team failed and sent out a bad unit. Unlucky on my part. I've ordered this monitor again from another website, which allows backorder but still out of stock. So hopefully in the future I can update this review to be more positive and try out this monitor. I've just updated my rig to be capable of pushing 300+ fps in many games at 1080p so I can't wait to try it. ASUS support failed me here, so a negative to them as well. A proper support agent would've shipped me a new panel, and then sent me a prepaid label to ship the defective unit back to them. Not make me pay to ship a monitor I already paid $30+ in shipping for, especially when it's their unit that is bad OUT OF BOX. Terrible customer support. In comparison logitech after sending them video proof of defects, would send me a new unit and not even require me to send the old unit back. Asus support, do better. Also best buy, thanks for processing the refund. I know it stinks to lose a big sale but what can we do. Also, an ETA on restocks for out of stock items would be great. The website is so vague, for both this monitor and other items/the RTX 3000 series. Literally impossible to tell when things will be in stock if ever.

Took awhile to find one in stock which sucked, but after 3 or so days 1 was available and I couldn't be happier. It looks nice and is incredibly smooth, a big jump up from 144hz
