ASUS TUF VG249Q Gaming Monitor: Super Smooth
ASUS TUF Gaming Monitor Review (VG249Q)
The Asus VG249Q is a 24 inch gaming monitor that comes with a 144 Hz IPS display and highly ergonomic stand. It usually retails below 250$, so you get quite a lot for your money.

You’ll receive the monitor, 6’ power cable, 6’ DisplayPort cable, stand base, illustrated setup instructions, and warranty booklet. The footprint of the base is about 8.5” x 11” and on the bottom are six small rubber feet to keep the stand from sliding. The monitor with the base weighs about 13.5 lbs and the screen is 21” wide 12.75” tall giving it close to a 24” viewable diameter.

The monitor is able to rotate on this base to pivot from portrait orientation to landscape 90° in both directions. It’s also adjustable in height six inches (15cm), making the maximum height 15" – 21” from the table to the top of the screen. As well the monitor can be swiveled about 60° to either side and tilts back about 20°.

At the back of the monitor, on the left hand side we have the power cable input, and on the right the video and audio inputs. There’s one HDMI 1.4 port, a DisplayPort 1.2, and a VGA input with audio input. You also have two stereo 2Watt speakers along the bottom, and a plastic cover over the built-in cable management clips. There’s a Kensington lock on the right side.

If you use HDMI or DisplayPort as the connection type, audio is automatically transmitted to the monitor through these cables. The ASUS colors are deep and rich and my old monitor just looked washed out. Because the #VG249Q is an #IPS display, it’s got great viewing angles of 178° so even at near parallel, the image on the screen is sharp and the colors don’t really look that different.

Using the on-screen menu keys for the #ASUS, you can choose one of 7 display profiles, under Game Visual. I wasn't a huge fan of the onboard menu navigation as the icons and functions change depending where you are in the menu tree. From the main menu you can access things like input selection and the blue light filter, which has 4 levels of filtering to protect your eyes from the harmful effects of blue light. However, each level intensifies a slight yellow tint and level 4 significantly darkens the screen.

From the full menu page you can also make adjustments to individual settings like brightness, contrast, saturation, color temp, and skin tone. Here’s where you can also turn on Adaptive-Sync or FreeSync with AMD video cards, so that the monitor's vertical refresh rate and the frame rate of GPU will adjust to match each other dynamically to reduce tearing. Keep in mind that Adaptive-sync features are only available is you hook your monitor up using the DisplayPort cable.

Now if you play a lot of fast-motion games, you may want to turn on the “Extreme Low Motion Blur” feature or ELMB. This helps to reduce ghosting effects for fast moving objects on the screen, but I did notice that it produced more visible corona artifacts.

One of the advantages of having such thin bezels is that you can potentially use multiple monitors nearly seamlessly. As well you can toggle on a crosshair in the center of your screen, countdown timer for tracking gameplay time, and live FPS counter.

When gaming, settings like Shadow Boost help bump up the visibility in dark areas. With adaptive-sync enabled there was virtually no tearing or micro judders. Just note that adaptive-sync and ELMB cannot be enabled at the same time so you’ll have to decide which is more important for the games you play. In general, I could tell there was a big difference in the smoothness of the visuals.

As noted earlier, the biggest difference I saw between this monitor and my old one was in the color depth, as it has 8-bit color support via 6-bit + FRC to achieve close to the full sRGB color space resulting in more pronounced contrast and deeper saturation. For me, this also makes the monitor great for creative work for things like post processing photos and editing video. The built-in stereo speakers are not that great, but if you don’t have room for other speakers on your desktop, they will output audio just fine.
