ASUS Announces TUF Gaming Series Five Monitor Range

[GFreeman]

ASUS today announced TUF Gaming Series Five monitors. This latest gaming monitor range offers over 20 models to choose from and features varied specifications to meet different user needs. The competitively-priced Series Five monitors deliver five-star gaming experiences by offering upgrades in five key aspects: Speed boost enables up to 300 Hz refresh rates and 0.3 ms response; ultrasmooth gameplay is enabled via Adaptive Sync technology; vivid colors are delivered with up to 95% DCI-P3 gamut; Gaming AI features offer a competitive edge; and easier control is offered thanks to DisplayWidget Center software.

The flagship TUF Series Five VG27AQML5A boasts a 300 Hz refresh rate and 0.3 ms response time, making it ideal for the most competitive gamers; alternately, VG34WQML5A offers a 250 Hz refresh rate (OC) and 0.5 ms response for ultra-immersive gaming experiences.

• Speed boost: Gamers are treated to unstoppable gaming performance with up to a 300 Hz refresh rate and lightning-fast 0.3 ms response time.
• Ultrasmooth gameplay: NVIDIA G-SYNC and AMD FreeSync Premium support ensure tear-free visuals. Additionally, ASUS Extreme Low Motion Blur (ELMB) Sync technology helps eliminate ghosting during high-frame-rate gaming.
• Vivid colors: Support for up to 95% DCI-P3 and VESA DisplayHDR 400 enable TUF Series Five monitors to showcase vibrant colors and deeper contrast for stunningly-immersive visuals.
• Gaming AI: Features such as Dynamic Crosshair, Dynamic Shadow Boost, and AI Visual pave the way for greater wins. Dynamic Crosshair automatically changes the crosshair color to contrast with the background for more accurate aim. Dynamic Shadow Boost brightens dark areas of the scene to help gamers easily spot enemies hiding in the shadows. In addition, AI Visual detects onscreen content and automatically applies the best default or user-defined settings through DisplayWidget Center.
• Easier control: ASUS DisplayWidget Center is an intuitive software tool that lets users manage, optimize, and personalize settings with their mouse, without having to navigate through the OSD menu. It also provides firmware update notifications and downloads to ensure the monitor stays up to date with the latest features. Users can also use DisplayWidget Center to export their preferred settings to other ASUS monitors, or to import pro-gamers' or streamers' configurations.

Sometimes I get the impression these gamur companies release more monitors than they actually sell. All for the headlines. Or they just rebadge them every month to call it new...

If priced right that 34" ultra wide looks promising.

1440p...im out. Minimum 4k for anything >27". I'm on my 28" TUF monitor and I love the thing. Bought it at the beginning of the pandemic so it's 5 years old now... holding up pretty well. Hope to get at least another 5 years out of it.

Until you see the absurd price they will want for it, in addition to the AsSus tax too, that is........

Dear vendors:
- 1440p, don't
- 109ppi, stop! for Good's sake

It is 2025, for how long are you willing to rehash this technology/parameters?

As long as people are buying, as long as the myth that you have to play at native and scaling is bad in Windows persists, and/or until someone enters the market with superior options at half the price. Remember how AOC pooped the party for every established player by introducing IPS screens at the prices others were still selling crappy TNs for? Well, that's sort of the thing this market needs to happen again, now with resolutions fit for the times.
Trade wars might get in the way though.

Ah yes, the 0.3 ms response time on CERTAIN transitions when overdrive levels that are in practice unusable are enabled, yeah. I’ve seen this movie before.

Agreed. No idea what Asus will price the 27 inch model at, but, frankly, there is no sane reason why a 240-280-300Hz range IPS 1440p screens with edge backlight should be over 400 bucks in 2025. It’s solved tech by this point. The panels are made by, like, every notable manufacturer under the sun these days. AUO, LG, CSOT, Innolux - everyone. Hell, I have a felling that the same panel in this very Asus can be found in some more obscure Chinese-brand monitors for like 250.
