Reviewer score 61%ASUS ProArt Display PA278QV has a large screen with a high resolution that's well-suited for work, gaming, or media consumption. It has a fast response time, low input lag, and a 75Hz refresh rate that makes fast motion look smoother than a typical 60Hz panel. Unfortunately, it has a low contrast ratio that makes it less ideal for dark room viewing and it doesn't support HDR.
