Size class of the display as declared by the manufacturer. Often this is the rounded value of the actual size of the diagonal in inches. The ratio between the horizontal and the vertical side of the display. Some of the standard and widely used aspect ratios are 4:3, 5:4, 16:9 and 16:10. Call it lag. More precisely, call it latency. Either way, it’s one of the most dreaded terms in gaming. At the wrong moment, the delay from a latency spike can be the difference between landing a perfect headshot and taking a shot to your face. PC gamers usually think about latency in terms of network ping, but knowing that figure is just the beginning of combating annoying delays. There are many other local sources of delay in a PC gaming setup—known as system latency—that can slow the translation of input into on-screen action. To help gamers measure and minimize system latency, the ROG Swift 360Hz PG259QNR display includes a new performance-measurement weapon for elite players. Say cheese Information about the brightness of the screen. It is measured in candela per square metre (cd/m²). Elsewhere, there are some aspects of the PG259QNR that require more consideration. For instance, this panel doesn’t have Asus’ Extreme Low Motion Blur (ELMB) technology – it has Nvidia Ultra Low Motion Blur (ULMB) technology instead, which only works at 144Hz or 240Hz without G-Sync. While ULMB at 240Hz delivers marginally sharper images than a synchronised 360Hz output without ULMB, the differences are small and competitive players will prize 360Hz speed and G-Sync over a bit of extra sharpness at 240Hz.
Information about whether there is a possibility for wall mounting according to the VESA Mounting Interface Standard (MIS). Information of the number of pixels in a unit of length. With the decrease of the display size and the increase of its resolution, the pixel density increases. For those that don’t like a big stand, the display also comes with a desk clamp to replace the funky stand, as most monitor arms will again allow too much wobble. As such, we can’t fault it for not supporting VESA mounts. Information about the maximum horizontal viewing angle, within which the image on the screen is of acceptable quality. This panel is fast, but it’s small and has only a 1080p resolution. Single-player games don’t tend to require the speed provided by the PG259QNR, and you’d be better off with one of the rival Alienware or Samsung panels, which are larger and more immersive.
But not the PG259QNR. The stand Asus built for this display absolutely plants it on your desk, and won’t let it budge no matter how aggressive you get with your gameplay. High-Hz isn't just for esports anymore. Though the highest Hz is still expensive and mainly of interest to bigger-budget users.
We calibrated the monitor to see if we could improve its performance, but achieved few gains. Only the color accuracy was improved to 1.35, so calibrating the PG259QNR can lead to some gains. Naturally, there are also settings for adjusting brightness, contrast, and color, as well as options for shortcuts, lighting effects, and general monitor settings. Image quality Meta has been a major player in the new wave of virtual reality, and the Meta Quest 2 has been one of the most popular virtual reality headsets for several years. And while the Meta Quest 3 has been released, the Quest 2 still holds up when it comes to offering an immersive virtual experience. It has a super fast processor and a high resolution display. These keep the experience seamless and smooth, whether you’re playing virtual reality games or simply moving throughout the Metaverse. There’s not a ton of connectivity to be found on the PG259QNR, but then again, there doesn’t need to be. You’ll want to use the DisplayPort 1.4a interface to get the most out of this monitor, as the HDMI 2.0 port will limit the maximum refresh rate to “only” 240 Hz instead of the full 360 Hz. DisplayPort also enables G-Sync at 1 Hz through 360 Hz, which is the widest range I’ve seen on a monitor. Information about the number of pixels on the horizontal and vertical side of the screen. A higher resolution allows the display of a more detailed and of higher quality image.That’s a bold boast in a market full of exciting, high-end products. The 360Hz refresh rate on this panel is paired with Nvidia G-Sync, sturdy design, plenty of RGB LEDs and a 1080p resolution that will no doubt appeal to esports players. Where the display does stand out is in its brightness and contrast performance. Asus claims a brightness of 400 cd/m 2, but our sample exceeded 415 cd/m 2. The panel also exceeded its quoted contrast ratio, with a contrast of 1200:1, which is an impressive performance for an IPS panel. The white point was exactly at 6500K, which is great. The pixel pitch shows the distance from the centers of two neighboring pixels. In displays, which have a native resolution (the TFT ones, for example), the pixel pitch depends on the resolution and the size of the screen. Information about whether the stand can be dismounted. Usually, this is required for wall mounting.
