Asus VG278HE 144 HZ is the ultimate gaming monitor
It’s not everyday that a monitor is worth getting excited about, but in the VG278HE, Asus has cooked up something special. The Asus VG278HE is the first monitor to break through the 120Hz barrier to offer the smoothest ever motion in pictures. Those looking for the ultimate gaming monitor may have just found it.
All monitors have a refresh rate that keeps each frame of every image ticking over. The faster the refresh rate, the smoother the picture. The Asus VG278HE is the first monitor to have a 144 Hz refresh rate, adding 24 pictures per second to 120Hz monitors. The result is a smoother picture, perfect for gaming in both 2D and 3D.

The Asus VG278HE is also full HD compatible. It has a 1920×1080 pixel resolution, and support for 3D glasses technology Nvidia 3D Vision 2, which is already being supported by lots of the latest games.
Gaming in the third dimension is still in its infancy, but with monitors such as the Asus VG278HE, it’s surely only a matter of time before such quick refresh rates and 3D performance become the standard.
Around the back, the VG278HE comes with HDMI, dual-link, DVI-D and D-Sub inputs. Two stereo speakers come built-in, but as with any PC set-ip, owners will be able to customise their own sound-set-up anyway. A headphone port also lets users enjoy games and films more privately.
The Asus VG278HE could be the ultimate gaming monitor. It’ll be available to buy sometime in the fourth quarter this year.
The VG278HE will go nicely with the the Razer Ouroboros mouse we told you about yesterday. Hit the link below to check it out. Will the Asus VG278HE be your next gaming monitor?
