ASUS TUF VG259QM - An ABSOLUTE MONSTER - Detailed Review

The VG259QM is by far the best monitor I've ever tested. It has the least amount of motion blur I've ever seen, awesome OSD features and an amazing price. This is a monitor you NEED to put on your gaming monitor list.

WARNING: DO NOT use the pictures I used in the motion blur (Alien) test on any of my currently uploaded monitor reviews, those examples were presented incorrectly. Please use references from a reputable review source such as RTINGS.com. I have educated myself on the proper way of testing monitors and will use the proper test method in all upcoming reviews. I apologize for any issues this may have caused. As a one man team, it's hard to peer review. You guys are my peer review. Thank you to those who pointed out and helped educate me on my mistakes. You know who you are.

UPDATE: The info on the DeltaE of the calibrated display I gave was wrong! I did the test wrong which is why it seemed so bad for a calibrated IPS display. The calibrated display gets a DeltaE of 0.42 which is PHENOMENAL! That is all. Continue.

That “tuf gaming” at the start was really energetic

[raghuveerananbalagan]

handsdown the 'BEST review' of any monitor. Mate you really know what you talk about and honest about the product.

Just bought this monitor. I was a monitor noob and previously got an Asus TN 144hz monitor. This was such a big improvement! IPS has way better colours and viewing angles.

[criticalmoorhen]

first time seeing you, but the quality of your video, attention to all the details and everything is just insanely good. Subscribed.

Mine arrives in 2 days and this review made me feel even better about buying it! This was an awesome review!

[HyzaCS]

Just bought mine yesterday, arrives Wednesday and this review made me more excited than I already was, so thanks :D

[uriels]

I still bought this monitor back when you did the 27 inch review along with the other three monitors. For the price performance, you can’t say no to it.

[RogerDearly]

This channel became my favorite review channel especially for monitors! Underrated 100%.
But I think people would like to see some other gaming stuff reviews also (mouse, keyboard etc.)

[Mikeyfive]

Well done man! You definitely deserve more exposure for the quality content you produce. Keep it up brotha

[clownstown]

Getting this but won’t be until August, going from 59hz to 240-280hz lol. Also this video is very well put together and a lot of information given, you deserve way more subs!

[Pedruchoa]

Thank you for your review. During the Black Friday I was between that and Acer Predator XB3Q and you solve all my issues. Definitely go for Asus. Tks from Brazil.

[Johnnycash]

great review just bought the monitor, i bought the vg259q 144 hertz and after checking out this review i cancelled the vg259q and got the vg259qm, keep up the great work you're gonna blow up one day with reviews like this and after watching this review i decided to binge all your videos im gonna say, all are very informative and once again thank you.

[luizgamer]

I'm Brazilian and I'm looking for a monitor to buy and your video helped me a lot! Thank you very much for the video and for the specifications you are an excellent youtuber keep it up! God bless you! Hugs from Brazil!

[CRAZY_BLK_DUDE]

Thank you for making this video. I was lucky enough to wait until the price went back to $319.00 usd. I was very fortunate to grab it for $259.00 before taxes. Your video was definitely inspirational in me moving from 60htz to 240-280htz. It will be coming in the mail Sunday (today). I’m excited to start to use this amazing monitor immediately.

[md.moinimam]

bro u r underrated and i loved ur video. plz keep up the good work and continue posting monitor revies. the terms like overshoot and undershoot always puzzled my mind and also i never knew the relation of delta E with numbers. thanx for the informative reviews.

[trx]

Great review, I have this monitor, couldn't agree more!

[OVERLAPE]

I felt that plug, hahaha XD.

Great and conclusive review!

BTW with the new consoles rolling out soon, it would really be helpful if you made review a on the best monitors that would display great on both PC and Console, especially with how HDR is in focus right now.
I just got my AW2521HF yesterday and it's great for both!

[owen]

Thanks for the review, nice touch on all the details!

[ConVermin]

I'm still trying to decide between this monitor or the AW2521HF. All i can say his reviews are helping a lot! You earned a new sub :)
