Our take
I set up the ASUS TUF VG27BQ mostly for gaming and casual use. The QHD resolution is sharp, and 165Hz makes motion look smooth. G-Sync works well with my NVIDIA card, though I noticed the 8ms response time; for fast-paced shooters, it's not the snappiest. The HDR10 is a nice bonus but brightness at 350 cd/m² is just average. Build quality feels solid, and the USB-C port is convenient. For the price, it's a decent all-around monitor, but competitive gamers might want a faster response panel.
