ASUS PA279Q Professional Grade LCD Monitor Unboxing & Overview

any suggestions on a monitor for around $200-$300? Im into photography and digital painting... help would be much appreciated

OMG It's beautiful

You think Newegg will accept my first born child as payment?

was 1440p really gigantic in 2013

I'm dumbfounded by the charming woman on the display

how do you calibrate the asus pa 279 monitor

isnt it 4K??????????????????

Willmy asus g551jw support this monitor?

Whats the best biggest monitor for microsoft Excel? not gaming?

Hey Linus, I ordered it before I saw your review, but appreciate your opinion very much. I agree about a monitor being what I sit in front of an awful lot, way more than in front of the wife that's for sure. I'm not a professional or a gamer. I just like nice stuff.  Later....

What are the USB ports and SD card reader for?

IMPORTANT NOTE!

PA279Q: LUT: 10-bit
PA328Q: LUT: 12-bit

It is NOT a 14-bit as stated here, it's a 10 bit as stated on their website.

I almost bought this one due to it's colour accuracy above it's bigger brother for it's price point.

bwwaabwaaabwawowowowoow.....

I showed this to my credit card b4 i ordered one...

this! i want this with gsync low response and an ultra wide option GB-r-LED NOT ah-ips w-led monitors they can goto hell (ie all the current gsync monitors lol)

I want to get into photography. Do i need to buy a new monitor if i want to edit the photos? My current monitor just SUCKS SO FUCKING HARD! It has a viewing angle of 5° (it's really that bad. The colors start to change when i move my head a few inches to one side!), it has horrible ergonomics and it looks ugly.

HDMI has one use left.... hooking up your PS4 so you can play when your not working.
Then again with a monitor like that its probably pretty bad for gaming.

my only gripe in regards to this monitor is, its 3 years old and its STILL almost $800, you'd figure that with 4k all the rage that the price would drop more...

You seem to be rather too interested in watching those "shades of grey", Linus  ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Where's the red line at the bottom of this monitor? : /

How much does the display port cost?

Thanks for this review. Made me confident in my choice.

Hi. Thanks for the informative review. Has the PA329Q been looked at? Cheers

Is this still great for 2016?

Would this still be a worthwhile for photo editing, if you do not have a Quadro card? would I still benefit from the 10bit color depth?

I wish to get this monitor because it's old monitor but still the great monitor for video editing and graphics. please who will help me with this monitor.......

Is this an older version? the ones i can find with the same name are 4k but the one in this video is 1440p

Thanks for this. Sadly, I think my video card (GeForce GTX 460) only supports Two Dual Link DVI's and a Mini HDMI. Does that mean I won't experience the full range of this monitor? And if so, do you have another recommendation? Thank you in advance for any help on this!

This guy looks gay.

I upgrade when my local goodwill has something in stock that is better than the previous screen I purchased there.

I can't understand, whatever happened to the red line below?

How bad is the IPS glow in this compared to Asus ROG SWIFT PG279Q for example? Please demo some dark images in a darker ambient light.

it's 2017 and for the price, I can't find something that would beat this....

i bought this monitor and love it. it does everything i need and more. with that said, i still experience color inacurracies when I export my media and view on iphones. Since the majority of media is viewed on iPhones these days, im thinking of using thunderbolt as my next display. Also, this monitor, weighing 30lbs, is really heavy and I still havent taken the risk to using a clamped desk due to its weight.

UPDATE THIS!!! The ASUS PA329Q is out...

30 mili seconds isnt that alot? Compared to other gaming monitors..

Is it still worth it?

Found this guy at a thrift store for $15

just got this used for 190€ on ebay

Still watching on 2018

I am looking at this and the ViewSonic XG2402 for a desk monitor. I use it to watch movies, second monitor for my laptop for work, and console gaming. Any recommendations?

165hz ?????

is it refresh rate is really 86hz in 1440p?

Im looking for a compromise between my gaming and professional work needs in my new monitor upgrade- which excludes 4k instantly as even my RTX 2080 would struggle to give decent fps with newest games on full settings as i saw around in 4k- and i was eyeing this monitor for a while now.
Im still wondering HOW IT ACTUALLY PERFORMS FOR GAMING. Im generally more interested in big single player eyegasm titles though, some fantasy mmos on the side....
I wonder if i should go for this or a gamer monitor with excellent picture good enough for digital painting and photo editing- IF I CAN FIND ONE, and buy a just for art one later when i start my new job where ill be working on all kinds of ads from screens to banners. If i get this now it must serve the gaming needs for years to come even if i get a bigger art monitor too, which im not sure i REALLY need or would this do, since i have no experience with any the like.
im willing to cough up around 1000$ now. But not sure where to put it.

If anyone has any educated thoughts or experiences to share, im eager for every word.

Wow, i still use this monitor

what power cable was used?

7 years later after watching this video I finally was able to afford one

Watching on said screen after buying it from goodwill in practically brand new condition for 25 dollars. Only problem it has is that HDMI does not work.

I just got this after a month of research and going through multiple bvm crt & pvm colors on old gaming is just flawsless compared to some oled TVs I have and qled this a sleeper

I still use Proart 249q . Why not it is better than most new 1080p monitors

just got one off hard rubbish/ Can you believe people discard these in 2024?
