Do you need 360Hz? Are you going pro or are you just extremely competitive and want the best of the best? This new monitor from ASUS (PG259QNR) isn't just about 360Hz though, it also has NVIDIA'S Reflex so you can test your overall system latency and on some mice too.
But in this video I'm trying to answer the question on whether 360Hz is actually worth the upgrade over 240Hz with and without DyAc (used the BenQ Zowie XL2546).
For an in depth review of this monitor make sure you check out Tech Yes City: • Asus 360Hz Monitor (PG...
Thanks to ASUS for sending this one out for testing so I could see what 360Hz was like. All thoughts are my own, this is not a paid promotion, it's an interest video featuring a product.
Really hoping more mice get added to NVIDIA Reflex and it turns out to be accurate ... would make latency testing so much easier. Exciting times ahead hopefully!

Exactly the type of content I asked for. Please more FPS reviews, tips, aim training etc.
Sounds good to me!
It's more like. "Can you hit 360fps"
Yeah that's why I left the frame rate in these clips ... I wasn't even hitting 360 in most. Diabotical seemed the best test. Quake Live would get way higher than that but it's capped. I need to learn to play CS:GO maybe.
It technically would still make it smoother even if your hitting a much lower framerate. Because average delay between frame generation and display is reduced
@@RocketJumpNinja Valorant is basically CS 1.6 with abilities, so if you know how to play Valorant, you should be able to learn CS 1.6 and then also CS:GO.
Ya id be better if you do hit 360fps but it still has better latency then a 240 even if you don't hit the frames.
You do not need high FPS to benefit from high Hz.

Honestly, it's such a huge difference. Went from 60hz to 144(new monitor) and then back to 60 when the display port died..needless to say I have another dp on its way
@@your_average_cultured_dude So I guess you are a player that likes to rush? As that is the main difference where it would give you the advantage... Like for example if you know what you are doing and you playing mid on dust 2 or holding it with awp 60hz will be enough for the most part... That being said you can reach a GE with only 60hz. So it just gives you a competitive advantage but not on the levels that most people seem to think and 99% of people won't unlock it, or it will improve their skill by 10-20% at best which will place you one or two ranks higher at best (out of like 20 ranks). The main advantage of high refresh rates is from close corner fights, but even then it's not necessary if you know how to play around them with 60hz...

Would you compare the 1440p 240hz 27in and the 1080p 360 hz? Would be interesting to see how much the extra resolution could benefit the high refresh with more clarity
keep em coming, champ
I have 160 hz on my ultrawide and I plan to ride this thing out until like 1000 hz is relatively cheap. That would still probably be a notocable jump even at that point. If I kept upgrading 144 - 240 - 360- 500 I'd get less and less improvement for dollar and barely notice each upgrade.
Waiting for your video of the new Logitech mouse already subscribed
Previously had (well still have but it's in the box behind my back :)) zowie xl 2546 and two weeks ago I got ASUS PG259QN (only difference is that it doesn't have reflex modul) and the difference was very clear in for example valorant when turning from left to right and also when scrolling some web page :). But after like 10 minutes of use I got used to the change in game and it feels normal. One day when I'm not lazy I will plugin the zowie monitor back to see if I can spot the difference but to this day the scrolling the wall of text on some web page is noticeably better on this monitor so yeah for the best reading experience get this 360hz monitor :D. But in all seriousness the FastIPS panel is worth it in itself, the viewing angels (I have my monitor tilted with my face close to it and over it and when I wanted to watch a video on the zowie and lean back I had to adjust the tilt to actually see something in the upper one third of the monitor) and colors.

I just ordered Alienware's 240Hz offering and I'm pretty excited to see where it goes. Lately I've been really sensitive to lag, micro stutter, etc on my 144Hz and it bothers me. At the end of the day I don't really need all of the competitive edge that I know high refresh monitors certainly help with, but the satisfaction and enjoyment I get from not dealing with any issues since I simply play better when I'm enjoying myself.
Hey, I just bought the alienware 240hz and was wondering how yours is so far..did it help??
@@zosarion 240 from 140 is pretty noticeable if you’re a competitive gamer: valorant, CSGO, overwatch, and it’s much smoother feeling to me. But my brother plays more single player stuff and says he doesn’t feel as much of a difference, so it all depends on you
Very interesting video, but I feel you’re coming a little short on some vital points with it. Have you seen A5hun’s videos on his monitor testing tool? With reviewing this 360Hz monitor I think you’ll find it very interesting. It’s the one named 10% to 90% GtG I’m referring to here specifically. And you mention how you don’t think there’s any 1440p 360Hz monitors. 1440p 240Hz is already capping the bandwidth on DP 1.4 with 26.54Gbps, while DP 1.4 actually only supports a data rate of 25.92Gbps. It’s solely due to Display Stream Compression 1.2 (DSC 1.2) that DP 1.4 makes use of which compresses the signal enough to allow so much data to pass through- and we don’t notice this compression. The ASUS uses the same in the 360Hz one. It’s argued that even with DSC 1.2 and HDMI 2.1 we might not have enough bandwidth to use 1440p 360Hz or 4K 240Hz. And this is only 8bit(!), imagine trying 10bit HDR with such high refreshrates. 8+2bit HDR works surprisingly at 1440p 240Hz though, but that’s because 8+2 is still only 8-bit and uses dithering to imitate true 10bit. Coming from someone who uses the HP Omen X 27, if I use a DP 1.4 cable that isn’t VESA certified it will usually not work as it should and often gets artifacts because the cable literally isn’t up to spec at transferring enough data. As well, the motion clarity is interesting as you would think a staggering 360Hz would be crystal clear, however the reality is that the IPS panel is unable to fully transition its pixels fast enough even with carefully calibrated overdrive modes, but it’s as close as we get for now on IPS. I would honestly love for ASUS to release a 360Hz modern TN panel like this. If you watch A5huns video you’ll start to understand why these fast IPS panels are actually a big marketing circle and not really adhering to the specs marketed, at all. And he tested a 280Hz display for it against an older 144Hz TN (and a CRT). It all makes the case for new panels technologies to be researched further for high refreshrate gaming. Thanks for making your reviews, motion clarity and high refreshrates are quite interesting topics with all these companies attempting to push the envelope.
>however the reality is that the IPS panel is unable to fully transition its pixels fast enough even with carefully calibrated overdrive modes This is not true. From Hardware Unboxed video "Asus PG259QN Review, 360Hz Refresh Rates Are Here!" uploaded on September 10,2020 "The next question is whether an IPS panel can actually keep up with the demands of a 360 hz refresh rate. The window for each refresh here is just 2.78 milliseconds, in other words, the monitor can display a new image every 2.78 milliseconds. To get a true 360hz experience the panel has to be capable of finishing its transition before this window expires, otherwise you'd just get a smeared mess. There are just three overdrive modes provided here, the first of which is the off mode. While a sub-six millisecond transition time is impressive for an IPS panel without overdrive, it's not fast enough for 360hz gaming. But I don't think many people will choose to use this mode, given its not the default. What is the default mode is the normal mode, and here we have extremely impressive performance. With a 2.21 millisecond GTG average, we are WELL WITHIN THE BALLPARK FOR A TRUE 360hz EXPERIENCE [emphasis added]. In fact, we see two-thirds of all transitions completing within the 2.78 millisecond refresh window, and over 90% within a reasonable tolerance of this window." Also, according to his testing, ~92% of all transitions occur within 3.78 milliseconds, which translates well with a 265hz refresh rate (meaning 92% of the time you outperform or at least match 265hz, still beating the current top-tier standard). For comparison, a 240hz panel requires a 4.17 millisecond at worst to achieve 240 hz.
@Parisgan Smuelly This is where it gets really interesting, and why A5hun and his review methods are such key. Have you checked out his video? Look at the one named "How LCD Response Times are Measured, and Why 10% to 90% GtG Measurements are Moderately Deceptive". I'll even link it here: kzhead.info/sun/gMaThcuDp6yKdGg/bejne.html Now, even Hardware Unboxed are not using the tool or programs A5hun is, and are not reporting in true RGB values, simply linear gamma values. Why? A5hun made them himself, which is just incredibly impressive and the next step in monitor reviews. Anyways, this 2.21ms GtG measurement in your Hardware Unboxed paragraph is just how fast the pixels take to transition from one state to another when applied voltage in a linear gamma curve. It doesn't account for true color values, as in converting the measurement to true RGB 255-to-0. What this means is simply: smearing. And you can see it in their UFO testing, any IPS monitor that's tested with conventional methods really. Only the ULMB mode at 240Hz seems to work on the ASUS 360Hz. If it was within the values they report, it wouldn't be smearing or displaying smearing to the degree we see, because if it's within spec it would be transitioning fast enough, right? That would mean crystal clear pictures for each frame regardless of ULMB, and yet, they don't have this. I really recommend you check out A5huns videos, and I understand that you're referring to Hardware Unboxed's videos and review of the 360Hz monitor, a trusted source for info. But if you consider that they also commented on his video remarking his methods: i.imgur.com/1nCSSqZ.png, imo it changes the things. This is also 4 weeks ago when the video launched, from the 25th of october, after Hardware Unboxed's Asus 360Hz review. That's not the say the 240Hz mode with ULMB on the 360Hz ASUS is bad, it is really good and is definitely an interesting look at. All I'm really saying is this new method from A5hun is causing a shift in actual monitor reviews. I personally changed my monitor to the X 27 because IPS is for me too slow and produces to much smearing, and I'm very happy there is now proper, in-depth proof of how IPS is so slow, and just how much. A5hun even measures the response on a 280Hz IPS panel and the results speak for themselves. I don't want to "preach" something here so I'll just ask you again to watch his video. It's really incredible to see his findings. So no doubt the 360Hz panel is fast, but it's not as fast as the current reviews say it is, as they're not converting the measurements to true RGB values. All I can say for now is that I hope A5hun manages to get his hands on one of these, and we can just wait until the big channels update their test methodology to add octane and the melexis probe.
Well researched, thanks for the informative comment!

@@davidpalomino9138 I'm from the UK, we have s similar store here. After they reopen they should have one to try.
I have a 240hz monitor, but i play on 144 in most games due to hardware limitations. The only difference between 144 and 240 is the readability of the text and if you really pixel peep, you can see a little smoother cursor on the desktop. I imagine this is a similar difference as between 240 and 360, since most of the people notice the higher refresh rate by how many "shadows" movement has left

you should do a reaction time test on lowest latency mouse (360hz vs 240hz)
I did... wasn't different enough to show anything.
@@RocketJumpNinja You should have actually uploaded it so that it clears the doubt. Btw love your work man. Hats off to you🎉
Yeah now that I think about it ... you're right. At the time I was just on my usual quest of "let's make the video as short as possible while giving the necessary information". Next time I will!
what difference should there be? do a bit of maths: 1/60 > 1/144 > 1/240 > 1/360, but 1/60 - 1/144 >>> 1/240 - 1/360. The second difference equals about a millisecond, whereas the first one equals about 9 milliseconds. So with increasing refresh rate, at first you notice big improvements, but it becomes increasingly less relevant as you get to such small increments of time in which normal human beings can hardly perceive anything happening at all. You wouldn't notice the signal of 1 millisecond (wow) lower latency above the variance (randomness) for a reaction time test.
@@billthepigeon Precisely, even when the relative differences are big the absolute differences get so small they’re irrelevant.

Great video! thanks for testing all this stuff ^^
Hey there! Great review. @ 3:00 The 360Hz IPS looks much more blurry on the objects shapes? Btw at 4:20 you say that DyAc monitors are the best if I heard you correctly? Thanks!
You should *really* look into the audio delay of onboard/USB/PCI-E sound cards and USB-based headphones. There can more than +250 milliseconds of delay difference between the worst and the best. And as we know, properly cued 3D positional audio can be a pre-cue for visual orientation (i.e. giving you up to a 60 ms reaction advantage, when it is properly timed and NOT delayed), this audio delay issue can be a HUGE issue in 3D environment fast paced FPSes, where the FOV is usually limited to 25%-30% of actual 360 degree space....

Working on it!
In addition: it can only really help you if your PC can spit out 240+ FPS, otherwise GSync will match it. For Warzone it's not going to make a difference, for CS:GO, it probably will. Then again, if you have 30ms ping (basically LAN party) and 100ms target acquisition (you are on the top of the leaderboards on the aim trainer) that 1.7ms gain will only matter for your morale (even if it adds up in each feedback cycle to say 5-7ms per fight). Addendum: if you want to climb to the top of the aim trainer leaderboard though and you only need to squeeze the last bits of effort out of your system, then go for it. The 1.7ms per shot decrease can get you 2-10 more hits in the 60 seconds timeframe. At that point it's your hobby, just like other people overclock for fun, we get it.

Zowies Dyac+ is amazing sadly it was giving me headaches. Turns out not seeing something doesnt mean its not affecting you, i had the same issue with crappy CRT screens back in the day and the first wave of flatscreen LCD's, though you can see CRT flicker with the naked eye.
I was kind of waiting for Asus 1440p 360Hz (PG27AQN) all year but since I'm a penny-pincher at heart I had to give in to the Lenovo Legion Y25g-30 (who comes up with these names btw?) which was on sale for just 330€ the other day. also 360Hz 1080p G Sync with reflex analyzer.... really excited coming from Benq XL2420T (120Hz) to experience the difference.
Perhaps I missed it but you made many technical tests of the difference between 240 and 360 Hz. But how big is the difference subjectively? Could you feel any less input lag? Does it look noticably smoother?
Someone made a very good video about this recently, compared 60, 144, 240 and 360 hz with low and high fps.
@Rocket Jump Ninja, so what do you personally prefer for Quake live and other competitive shooters: the 360hz IPS panel, or the Zowie 240hz with Dyac enabled?
Go with the Zowie, the Dyac does considerably more than higher Hz at this point.

I can give you a quick update ... the mesh really can't compare to comfort of the other chairs like Corsair T1 Race. I find myself constantly wanting the comfort instead. That said, on a hot day, it's not about comfort ... I need that mesh. If you're in air conditioning, I'd go for the standard chair. If you are just using a fan or something or it gets too hot where you use your computer, then yeah probably best to look at a mesh chair. It seems to be holding up well enough. It's just the comfort I'm not too keen on.

I like the idea of 360hz but I got a nice 240hz monitor by Samsung for $300 at bestbuy for black Friday and for 27in I'm happy with how nice the quality is. I cant fork out that much for a 360hz monitor, ESP. knowing I'd have to upgrade hardware to even fully benefit from it.
Good old CRT at 120hz is still the best for image clarity in motion even compared to 360hz screens.
Thats right, LCD must be reach ca. 600Hz to be smooth as CRT.
Cool video and great information but I don't think it's worth it unless you're in the top 1 percent even then probably not worth it for 360hz. The hardware to run it isn't there yet either, even 240hz is a push with current cpus and is only achievable in e sport titles

Hehhe Yes 1.6 dayz ftw
that keyboard!
For me I’d really go with a 1440P 240hz monitor instead then u have it all and 240hz is still really good
240 hz 2k vs 360 hz 1080p ?
what is your choice?
I'm curious: are you running with G-sync enabled on either monitor? From what I understand, the cost of enabling G-sync itself is only 1-2 ms, and the reason people play without G-sync is to play at higher frame rates, where you can get less input lag. (This is game dependent, but Battle(non)sense's experiments show a 5-15 ms decrease in input lag when playing at 300 instead of 144 fps, for example.) If you're already playing at 240, I wonder if the benefit of higher framerates is enough to offset the disadvantage of frame tearing. (Or maybe the frame tearing is just not noticeable at 240 Hz. I personally notice tearing on my 144 Hz monitor, so I usually play with G-sync instead, understanding I'm adding a little latency with a lower framerate.)

Will you be reviewing the new GPRO Superlight after its release?
I wish instead of higher refresh rates, they focused on lower gray to gray. I need clear frames. This is especially noticeable when panning across a landscape. If your pixels can't turn over faster than the whole monitor refreshes, you get a blurry mess.
benq's dyac is the answer. super low motion blur and super clear picture
@@theendurance thanks for the tip. Will check it out
Bad choice to compare a non G-sync monitor (BenQ one) with the 360hz G-sync, because most of the difference you're seeing is the tearing/stuttering in the image of the BenQ screen since it's not G-sync supported. Next time compare a G-sync to G-sync monitor where the only changed variable is the refresh rate.
You should compare a BenQ monitor with dyac premium to this 360hz monitor as that would probably make even less of a noticeable difference.
The tearing in the middle of the video really looks to be related to G-Sync rather than to the higher frame count
I will never go below 144hz, and I currently use 240hx and love it, but anecdotally Shroud got signed to Cloud 9 on a 60hz monitor before he could ever buy a 144hz monitor (he mentions this in a Linus Tech Tips video where pro players test high refresh monitors). So yeah it can definitely hold you back if you are able to go pro, but it also might not, if you're that good that that is an option, your skill will still shine.
At that time like 99% of gamers used 60hz monitors, things are different now.
I've read somewhere that NVIDIA said that, to have a sense (for your eyes/brain) of complete smoothness you need 1000fps/1000hz . Having said that, i think clarity is much more important than input lag. ULMB delivers quite good results if you can't get used to the flickering. I've been playing with ULMB for quite some time now on my PG258q 240hz monitor , set on 144hz and if i said it off now i can see the BLUR between the frames. :)
So for Valorant, or High FPS Games, do you want to use GSYNC + VSYNC and cap fps? Or do you want to use ULMB or Fixed Refresh?
I wonder which peripherals give you the most potential for those who don't have much money. I think mice and mice pads are the most important while "gaming" keyboards don't really help.
Yeah, probably things like a comfortable (not gaming) chair, light, accurate, and comfortable mouse, and a good mousepad. The monitor or chair is the most expensive, but both are essential. Stick to 144Hz and that's more than affordable.
What sleeve do you use? I have trouble finding one that doesn't go all the way to my bicep. I don't need one that long, just my forearm is what I'm looking for.
I can't wait until we get 144hz+ OLED Monitors
the motion clarity must be insane
360 hz OLED with strobing for 100% perfected anti-blur.
Me who want's to buy 360hz monitor My gtx 1050 : are you sure about that?
Same but my 1030s talking lmao
It depends on the game, I mainly play Counter strike: Global offensive and Crossfire, I know you can run Counter strike: Global offensive on low 720 at 400 frames per second with a Gtx 1050, and Crossfire even more, so it depends on the game, even if you don't get 360 frames per second at all times it's still a mayor upgrade, I'm upgrading soon to 360 hertzs monitor with a Gtx 1050, wish me luck.
I tried the XL2546 at Gamescom last year and DyAc is insane for motion clarity. Currently using the Alienware AW2518HF and although it is 240hz I still notice the motion blur while playing CSGO. It is very smooth but not clear, so I am still thinking about replacing it with the XL2546K ... It is hard to justify 525 euro for a 1080p monitor :(
Hello! What choice did you do? I'm still hesitating between xl2546k and this 360hz.. (according blur tests dyac+ seems to be better than 360hz but in reality I don't know... and what about input lag? Some people say it's negligible but no data about it. For apex I think dyac is better because apex fps is lower than csgo or ow)
@@dato6019 DyAc beats 360hz in terms of response time and motion blur and also doesnt add any input lag. If ur gonna use monitor for 1 thing and 1 thing only(competitive gaming), buy xl2546 if u want to use it for gaming, working, watching movies and do any kind of color work, get the 360hz as its better in every aspect other than response time, input lag and motion blur which dont matter unless ur playing competitive
@@PeterGriffinFN4 I got both of them since, and the 360 is better, less input lag . It's noticeable for high competitive player
@@dato6019 DyAc beats it 100%, response time is way lower, motion blur is way lower and 360hz has better input lag by 0.4-0.6ms which is just due to it having more hz... Enormous amounts of pro players are swotching from 360 to 240 with DyAc for that exact reason... motion blur+response time>0.4-0.6ms input lag
@@PeterGriffinFN4 I know that !! But I tried both of them in the same time to compare and the 360hz felt more punchy (because of the lower input lag). So I kept this one because it felt like (after a few games) it was more important to be "faster than clearer" to me
Even if you are gaming at the highest level there are going to be system bottlenecks that prevent you from reaching 360fps even on low settings in most games. What i really want is a good quality 240hz 1440p HDR monitor at a reasonable price and without the stupid curve of the Samsung models.
I dont think you have to go pro to appreciate such. Though im only speaking from a 144hz standpoint, i think its a massive improvement not in my skillwise but my overall experience in gaming. It's just impossibly smooth and i thought 60 was the pinnacle or bare minimum of what games should be.
60 to 144 is a huge improvement. 240 to 360 isn't.
Hello Have you planned a review of the Logitech pro x wireless superlight ? Thank you
When is the Logitech G Pro X Superlight released in Aus? is it 3rd December like America?
I love your videos ❤️
since my gpu caps out at 240hz, which of these 2 monitor would be better overall for me? (input &response time as well as visually)? note: I'm debating between the benq zowie xl2546k & the asus rog swift pg259qn, not the pg259qnr
Im sure youve been getting this a lot but will you review the puslefire haste when you get your hands on one pls!!!!
1:06 that model o wireless 👀👀
Hey zy you doing a logitech g pro x superlight review soon?
Yo Rocket Jump Ninja you should review the new mouse that Logitech made. All the youtubers are getting it early to review, its called the g pro wireless superlight. It is basically the g pro wireless but lighter and faster I never tried it but it seems like the perfect mouse for me and cant wait for the release. It would be nice if you review it thx
Hopefully they'll have a 27" 340hz monitor soon.
