    Customers like the value of the monitor. They say it's well worth the price, great for a budget setup, and that FreeSync adds no cost to the monitor, making the transition worth every penny.

    My extensive experience and review of the MG279Q
    5 Stars
    My extensive experience and review of the MG279Q
    First off, let me explain how big of an upgrade this is for me. I've never known or even seen a display more than 1080p @60hz, and I've been used to this cheap Samsung T24B350 for over 3 years now. I've been looking for an upgrade for a while and Gsync seemed really important to me since obviously I have a GTX 770, however after seeing the price being only $580 (with freesync) compared to the insane prices of similar Gsync monitors, I was pretty much sold.I've read and seen all the reviews about how terrible the quality control is, but I had higher hopes than that, I mean, when people get something and their satisfied, most of the time they're going to just enjoy it, and forget about writing a review. So only the crazy enthusiasts write reviews and my theory was that they are just too picky.I ordered it on Sunday, and on Monday I saw that it was on it's way, hurray! Except I realized I accidentally ordered it to my parents' house, oops. So long story short, it got there first, and my sweet, beautiful mother had it sent to me the same day, while Amazon was kind enough to refund me the amount it cost to deliver from there to here (in college), thank you Amazon :)I got it yesterday, Thursday, all standard shipping of course, and I couldn't be more satisfied and excited about how quickly I got it. I finally brought it back and opened the package, set it up, plugged it in and turned it on. I almost instantly devastated by a few things. Aside from seeing an expected amount of IPS glow around the corners, most notably the bottom right, there was a terrible little dent up top where an unforgivable amount of backlight was completely ruining the top right portion.I was sure that I had to return it. I figured I might as well test it out in the meantime. Although I knew there was going to almost certainly be a little backlight bleed, the most obvious problem up top was unforgivable! I tried pushing the frame down and messing around with it with my hands, alas, no avail.I started using it with my computer and sweet baby cakes it was deliciously beautiful. I was blown away by the sheer picture quality, and when I finally turned it up to 120hz in Nvidia settings, I was blown away again. It was smoother than a baby's bottom. I didn't want to let go, I couldn't part with this glorious angel of a display. I tried fixing the obvious problem with my hands again. Nothing. I thought to myself "clearly there's a crack in there somewhere," right? I didn't think pushing the frame down would completely fix it. I figured I might as well keep trying, I was desperate. I tired again this time using a paper card, but I couldn't squeeze it in. I used a different card, a credit card, still not getting it. I tried a different spot, the card snapped in between the clean matte bezel, and precious crystal display. I slowly and carefully slid it over towards the problematic spot, and SNAP. The bezel returned to it's proper alignment and since I had a black picture in fullscreen I instantly realized that it was fixed 100%. Returned to it's former glory!I knew that the IPS glow or AKA back-light bleed wasn't ever going to be fixed, since it's more of a core design flaw. At least at out-of-box settings, it was obvious, but I used TFT Central's review to change it to optimal settings, and it was hardly noticeable. I could not have been more satisfied. Keep in mind I'm still looking at the display with a black picture in fullscreen.I also ran some other colored pictures by to make sure there were no dead pixels, faded pixels, dust, scratches, hair, or anything else that previous owners' review had so viciously claimed.I am currently typing on this monitor now, and the text isn't too small like people have warned, Windows 10 works perfectly with it as well. Nothing out of the ordinary.I fired up a few games and they are astonishing. Dark Souls II looks okay. I tried GTA V, and it quite the experience, although I am only running a GTX 770, and getting past 100 fps is quite the challenge at 1440p, the fps was able to lock around 72, and I was fully satisfied.In terms of work related... What can I say? Photoshop is much easier to use, more pixels, amazing color accuracy. So much screen real estate as well.Adobe Premiere Pro works fine, looks amazing, however I will post later once I finished setting up the dual monitors. Don't worry, I'm using the old Samsung monitor as a timeline, and media bin space, and the Asus as the main preview monitor. I can't wait to get used to it and see how my workflow increases, since I'm already pretty fast using just that one 24" monitor 1080p.When it comes to having a freesync monitor, yet I have an Nvidia card. I don't care. Gaming is honestly secondary for me, but very important nonetheless. Although considering what I've been used to, I think I can live with having an immense upgrade of a monitor that I was able to afford rather than not be able to afford others or say, the upcoming PG279Q which I know for sure I won't want to spend that kind of money on. The biggest thing for me was IPS, 1440p and 144hz. Although I'm still trying to figure out how to increase it from 120hz to 144hz, I've been trying everything and even contacted Asus and after talking where we could both hardly understand each other, all I got was that he thought I was trying to overclock the monitor, which, as far as I know, is not considered overclocking since it's rated at 144hz, after that, I was on hold for 10-20 minutes just get hung up on, and asked for customer feedback, which I gave mostly low, in all honesty. I'm not too worried though.This is such a joy to use. It swivels with little to no effort, it tilts up and down to any degree that anybody could ever want. The height adjustment is absolutely superb. It sits snug, and stays very fixed, and tight. When you try to move it up and down, it feels like an expensive desk drawer from Ikea but a little bit less grease. I can imagine after a couple years it will loosen, so starting it out a little tight was a very smart move. The bezel is tiny, especially compared to my old monitor. This MG279Q is a massive upgrade in every way possibly imaginable.I love playing with settings, especially display settings, and getting the right settings for optimal use, as well as personal preference is really important to me. It provides extensive customization and it will suitable for almost any environment/lighting situation. It gets very very bright, from rooms with windows, and it gets very very dim, for the dark rooms. The optimal settings I used (thanks to TFT Central) was Racing mode at 24 brightness, and RGB, at 100 96 96 respectively.The built in sound is okay. I think it's important to have that for people who are just browsing, need to hear notifications, etc.. But I would definitely recommend headphones if you don't have any other desktop speakers. I have both, thankfully.Anyway, it didn't take long for me to fall in love with the MG279Q, and hopefully, others out there that are reluctant to spend $700+ on a similar Gsync or a similar freesync monitor that's affordable... Rest assured, I am happy with my purchase, and I'm glad I didn't wait to spend an extra $350-450 on the upcoming PG279Q.I have posted a before and after pictures of when I first turned it on, to when I fixed the bezel defect up top. Also note that the IPS glow is exaggerated in the after picture, since my room is completely dark, and the monitor is displaying full black, after changing the settings, it is hardly noticeable.For those of you in a similar situation (big upgrade) I posted a few pictures comparing my old generic Samsung monitor to the new one. You can see obvious differences instantly in terms of contrast (on the ground) and color reproduction. It's even obvious after trying to match the lighting and white balance, etc. Enjoy :)
