Build a consistent gaming environment
Arrange the display around the way you actually play. Keep enough desk space for your preferred mouse movement and position the screen where you can see it comfortably without leaning forward. A deliberate layout also makes it easier to reach controls and reconnect peripherals when you change the setup.
Match the display to the whole system
Assess your graphics card, processor and game settings together. A refresh-rate specification describes what the display can accept; the computer still needs to render the frames. Choose a useful balance of detail and responsiveness, then check that the operating system and game are using the intended display mode.
Make setup part of the experience
Begin with the supplied documentation and a known-good cable. Update graphics drivers from official sources, select the native resolution and inspect the available refresh rates. Adjust brightness for the room, then explore one display setting at a time so you can judge what each change does.
Keep the desk adaptable
Plan access to the ports and leave gentle cable slack for stand movement. If you switch to a monitor arm, check its mounting pattern and load rating against the display without its stand. Preserve ventilation clearance and keep the manufacturer instructions available for future adjustments.

Compatibility & installation
- 310Hz is an OC mode. ASUS lists DisplayPort and USB-C video at 48–310Hz, while HDMI is listed at 48–240Hz. Actual availability depends on the source device and cable.
- USB-C video requires DP Alt Mode support on the source device. The stated 7.5W power delivery is not a full-power gaming-laptop charging solution.
- The technical table lists G-SYNC Compatible, while the feature-page heading still says certification is under processing. Confirm the current status and supported configuration with ASUS.
- No speakers are built in. Regional accessories, approximate measurements and mount capacity should be checked before installation.
Frequently asked questions
Can USB-C carry video?
Yes, through DP Alt Mode. Your computer’s USB-C port and cable must support that mode.
Can it charge a gaming laptop?
The official power-delivery rating is only 7.5W. Plan a separate laptop charger where required.
Can HDMI reach 310Hz?
ASUS lists HDMI up to 240Hz. The 310Hz OC range is listed for DisplayPort and USB-C video.
What controls are available from Windows?
DisplayWidget Center provides monitor setting adjustment and access to the colour-calibration e-report.
Can I use headphones and an arm?
A headphone jack and 100 × 100mm VESA mount are provided. No speakers are built in; choose an arm rated for the 2.78kg display without its stand.
