2018-10-27
ladies and gentlemen welcome to the pax booth coverage here for 2018 own tech yes City right now we are at the azuz ROG booth and the biggest focus here today is their monitors on display I've been checking him out they've got three ultra wide synced up 1440p over a hundred Hertz gorgeous now recently we did a video where we looked at World of Warcraft on triple surround and that was awesome at 1080p on three budget monitors this thing is next-level to the point where I don't can't even see out of my peripheral vision but let's take a look at what's new on display here with the Zeus's monitors but also talk about the tech that goes into them and one really good thing is if you're at PAX Australia they've got some really good discounts going on to the point where if you're here on the last day you can even pick up the demo models for nearly half price and you all know me I love myself a good so right here I'm on the showroom floor looking at the prices I can't believe what I'm seeing here 879 ozzie dollars which aziz are a lot weaker than the US will pull up the u.s. pricing for you 165 Hertz g-sync Monitor 27 inch IPS panel low input lag so if you guys have seen the Zeus monitors it going around they've got extremely low input lag we took a look at the 35 inch ultra wide that was really good not just in its input lag but also on his response times as well as Zeus really implement the overdrive feature really well so that means your response times are going to be good on top of the low input lag not to mention the inbuilt color profiles on the monitors themselves look absolutely gorgeous if you're an end-user game up so what this means is you can lock in a really saturated high contrast profile and you'll be good to go now speaking of the new monitors there go the PG to 7vq that's going on sale much lower than MSRP but on top of that they've also got the r edition which is stands for HDR now there's been a big thing about HDR and there's a few different ways of implementing the technology one way via contrast but there's another way by a multi zone lighting so I believe they're PG to 7uq monitor which is very expensive I mean it's coming in at two thousand nine hundred ninety nine dollars Aussie but this thing is 4k a hundred and forty-four Hertz it's also g-sync HDR as well but the HDR featured in this monitor is the multi zone lighting now I'm told this makes a bigger difference and will actually give you a really nice experience as opposed to the other versions of HDR are going through their other lineup of course they got the VG series which stands for value the G standing for the gaming features as well things as we mentioned before the low input lag the response time but the V Series doesn't have the option to enable the ultra low input lag which is definitely a great feature if you're a console gamer you want to use one of these monitors but we're going through the list they've got many different features many different price ranges for monitors so I think it's a big focus of the ROG going into the future with gamers I would notice the difference between a low input lag monitor and a high input lag would be like literally over hundred MMR and heroes in US and that's huge going from a 1700 to an 1800 raiding bracket and that was just input lag alone when I changed monitors I lost my my rating dropped I'm not gonna talk about which brand that was started with an S but that was a hundred and twenty Hertz and I went up from a sixty Hertz monitor so the sixty Hertz monitor was better in other words input lag makes a big difference but we also on top of that have the refresh rates when we go to talk about you can implement high refresh rates but if the response times are bad as you've seen in the monitor that I reviewed recently then that's those refresh rates are probably gonna do you more harm than good because your eyes are just going to be constantly seeing blur the whole time you're looking at the monitor now besides that azouz implement really good overdrive features there you got your pixel response times so the faster these transition the better it is for your eyes and also getting a sharper image so as we've seen with a 240 Hertz monitors there's some really good refresh rates going on and what we can do here on the showroom floor is actually take some a thousand FPS footage for you guys and even analyze it on the showroom floor impressive what we're getting out of the Zeus monitors is really good and then of course to boot they've got the thin bezels which we saw here they've got a triple surround ultra wide display 100 Hertz monitors I was playing on this thing jaw-dropping I mean to be honest it's really big I didn't even think my peripherals could see everything that was going on and we just did this after we did the world of warcraft bidat where we used three budget monitors so me coming from the budget monitors to the triple surround altra wide I was like damn I'd love to get on some of this stuff in the near future so I mean I kind of do but I don't at the same time because if I do you might just not see any more videos out of me I'm taking a city so 4k high-end premium stuff is there but it does come at a significant cost looking at some of the other budget choices though we look at the PG to 7 v QR and this has the contrast HDR implemented on it in 65 Hertz IPS panel as well so they're going with the good IPS panels that you've seen with those very fast transition times and response times cover with the ultra low input lag this would probably be the monitor I'd go for personally if I was looking for high-end game and wanted high refresh rates but also a gorgeous picture and as we seen with the azuz monitor reviews in the past they've got the color profiles pretty much down pat they're pretty accurate especially for gaming monitors if you want to do photo or video editing they're not too far off but when it comes to gaming and you want that high saturated contrast II look they really get it out of the box with the cinema mode in my opinion so ROG definitely know what they're doing with monitors anyway guys hope you enjoyed today's booth coverage of the monitors with RG if you like this one then be sure to hit that like button and I'll catch you in another tech video very soon peace out for now
