Know before you buy
The gentle curve helps maintain a consistent distance between your eyes and the edges of the screen. This reduces eye strain during long gaming sessions and creates a more immersive, wrap-around field of view compared to a flat monitor.
While this monitor is optimized for PC gaming via DisplayPort, it is compatible with consoles through its HDMI 2.0 ports. Keep in mind that console performance may be limited by the HDMI 2.0 bandwidth, so you may not reach the full 180Hz refresh rate depending on your specific console model.
VA panels are known for their high contrast ratios, which allow for deeper blacks and more vibrant colors than standard IPS panels. This makes the ASUS TUF VG34VQL3A an excellent choice for cinematic gaming and media consumption where shadow detail is important.
Yes, the monitor is compatible with standard 100 x 100 mm VESA mounts. This allows you to remove the included stand and attach it to a monitor arm for a cleaner desk setup or more flexible positioning.
FreeSync Premium Pro includes support for HDR content, ensuring that the monitor can handle high-dynamic-range visuals without the latency or stuttering often associated with HDR processing. It provides a tear-free experience while maintaining the color and brightness benefits of HDR.
To achieve the full 180Hz refresh rate, you should use the DisplayPort 1.4 cable included in the box. HDMI 2.0 may not support the maximum refresh rate at the monitor's native 2K QHD resolution.
