After building a new gaming PC for myself, I decided to go with the VG245H's bigger brother. The difference between the two is the size of screen and most importantly, the refresh rate. The VG245H is a 24" display and features a 75hz refresh rate, while the VG278Q is a 27" display featuring a 144hz refresh rate. Both of these displays have a TN panel. If you are just a casual gamer and you like to do a lot of photo and video editing on the side, you might want to look at an IPS or VA panel. These TN panels don't have the greatest color or contrast, but they feature some of the fastest G2G response times available. So, if you're a gamer with a competitive nature, these are monitors that you should strongly consider. Try not to pay much too much attention to the reviews claiming that these displays are great for gaming but terrible for everything else. These displays can be tuned and calibrated for a great "all-around" computing experience; via the monitor's OSD, and your GPU's control panel. While they will never be as vivid as an IPS or VA panel, they can still be good for day to day computing. So take a little time to dial them in before giving in to the idea that these display are "washed out" with "poor color reproduction".
Pro tip: Make sure that the RGB range is set to FULL and not LIMITED in your GPU's control panel.
Both displays come with the same sturdy, ergonomic stand.
Who should buy these? Anyone looking for a fast, reliable, and affordable display. Serious gamers who value speed over contrast and color accuracy. Who shouldn't buy these? Anyone looking for rich, saturated colors and life-like reproduction of movies and photos. So it all boils down to what is most important to you. If fast and furious is what you are going for, this is the monitor for you. If eye candy and features are more important, then you should look elsewhere...and be prepared to spend more.

however, the picture isnt as crisp as other monitors out there and when you're playing games where you really want to appreciate the graphics and environment you'll really see where the screen lacks.
As for its performance i havent had any othe rmonitor match it. With 5000+ hours in rainbow six siege i can say for sure i saw a major improvement in reaction time and gameplay when i got this monitor. the high refresh rate lets you follow targets easier and with its ability to utilize both amd and nvidia vsync options you can make sure screen tearing is almost non existant. the built in option to use reticles for practicing helps with aim training and lining up your shots before you need to make a move.
id recommend this monitor for competitive gameplay, but for the gamer who loves aesthetics id look for a monitor more suited for that.
In saying that, this monitor can also give visual clarity on anything work related so you don't have to switch monitors at all in order to do that. The last thing I will say about this monitor, at the 27" size, it fits even more perfectly in the same spot that I had my TV at than my TV did, and after realising this and that I can still see very clearly what I was doing from where I sit, I realised that I did not need to make any major changes to my current set-up at all as this is a very nicely sized monitor.
