The TUF Gaming VG27AQ first caught our attention at Computex last year. Firstly, because its main specifications (27” panel, 1440p resolution, 165Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time) make it an on-paper candidate to be a great gaming monitor in terms of si...

The TUF brand is usually assigned to entry-level products, but the Asus TUF Gaming VG27AQ does have some areas where it's definitely a high-end offering. And, with US and UK prices of $429 and £485, it's still a large chunk of money to spend on a display...
