Q: Does this monitor support the specs that the PS5 can support? In other words, is this a good monitor for the PS5?

A: It can, the PS5 supports 120HZ at 1080. So this monitor is good for the PS5

Q: Does this monitor work with the xbox series s at 120hz and 1080p?

A: This monitor will work with the Xbox series S, keep in mind you would need to check whether or not the Xbox series S can output 1080@120hz.

Q: Is this a good monitor to play ps4 on? Also if that is what’s it’s going to be used for should I purchase keyboard and mouse? This is a gift for a 13 year old.

A: The PS4 can't take full advantage of the monitor, but it's more than enough for even the PS5, which can take advantage of it. As for keyboard and mouse, they aren't necessary, but if the kid plays games that can use them (like recent Call of Dutys, Fortnite, Minecraft, etc.) and wants to use a keyboard, then it might be worthwhile

Q: Is the monitor free sync or g-sync?

A: It's G-Sync. The actual model number (not sure why it's not in the product title) is VG279QR if you want to check all the specs on Asus.

Q: Does it come with a display port cable?

A: Yes a display and hdmi cable are both included
