help ASUS VG27AQL1A FAQ

Can the ASUS VG27AQL1A run at 170Hz over HDMI?

Its maximum 170Hz mode is available through DisplayPort 1.2. The two HDMI 2.0 inputs support up to 144Hz at the native 2560 x 1440 resolution.

What does ELMB Sync do on the VG27AQL1A?

ASUS Extreme Low Motion Blur Sync combines backlight strobing with variable refresh rate to reduce blur without giving up adaptive synchronization. Results depend on frame rate, and some users may prefer standard Adaptive-Sync because strobing reduces brightness.

Does the VG27AQL1A have speakers and a USB hub?

Yes. It includes two 2-watt speakers, two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, and a headphone output.

Is the VG27AQL1A a true HDR monitor?

It accepts HDR10 and has a specified peak brightness of 400 nits. Its IPS panel has a typical 1000:1 contrast ratio and lacks high-end local dimming, so the HDR effect is more limited than on modern mini-LED or OLED displays.
