Our take on the ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQ 165Hz
The VG27AQ from the ASUS TUF Gaming line is a 27 inch 1440p monitor running at 165Hz, for streamers who want a sharper game screen without paying for 4K. At a tracked $249 it sits near the top of a $234 to $249 range from August 9 to October 19, 2026.
It has an IPS panel, 1ms MPRT response and G-SYNC compatibility. Inputs are DisplayPort 1.2 and HDMI 2.0. The stand moves in height, tilt, swivel and pivot, and the VESA mount lets you move it onto a monitor arm to free desk space under the camera. A three year warranty is listed.
