Ultra-Fast Performance for Competitive Gaming

The VG272UW2 features a 240Hz refresh rate and 0.5ms response time that work together to eliminate motion blur and ghosting. This combination ensures even the fastest-paced games appear smooth and sharp, giving you the split-second advantage needed in competitive play. The IPS panel maintains colour accuracy and wide viewing angles, so you won’t sacrifice visual quality for speed.

Enhanced Visual Clarity with Quad HD Resolution

Quad HD resolution provides 2560 x 1440 pixels of detail, delivering over 75% more clarity than standard Full HD monitors. This increased pixel density means games appear sharper and more detailed, allowing you to spot enemies and read text more easily. The 99% sRGB colour gamut ensures vibrant, accurate colours across all your games and media.

Smooth Gaming with AMD FreeSync Premium

AMD FreeSync Premium technology synchronises the monitor’s refresh rate with your compatible graphics card, eliminating screen tearing and stuttering. This adaptive sync technology ensures buttery-smooth gameplay without the input lag associated with traditional V-Sync. Combined with the 240Hz refresh rate, FreeSync Premium delivers the most fluid gaming experience possible.

HDR400 for Enhanced Depth and Realism

VESA DisplayHDR 400 certification brings enhanced brightness and contrast to your games. With a peak brightness of 400 cd/m², HDR content displays with greater depth and realism, making bright scenes more vivid and dark areas more detailed. This technology adds an extra layer of immersion to compatible games and media.

Versatile Connectivity Options

The VG272UW2 offers flexible connectivity with two HDMI 2.0 ports and one DisplayPort 1.4 input. This variety allows you to connect multiple devices simultaneously, whether you’re gaming on a PC, console, or streaming device. The included DisplayPort and HDMI cables ensure you’re ready to connect right out of the box.
