Hi, @HandBanana11b! Yeah, I've been using it for a while now and it's amazing! The response time is fantastic - it's only 1 ms! You can really notice the difference in fast-paced games like first-person shooters. The 360 Hz refresh rate doesn't hurt either.

Hey @PresJohnnyGentle, that sounds awesome! I've been looking for a monitor with low latency for my gaming setup. Do you have any other suggestions or tips?

Thanks for sharing, @CaptainCorn13! I'll definitely give it a read. So, @PresJohnnyGentle, do you have any other suggestions or tips for improving gaming performance on the Asus 24.5" PG259QNR?

I'm also considering this monitor for my PC build. How important is the refresh rate in comparison to the response time? And does it really make a noticeable difference in games like RPGs and MOBAs?

Hi @simplygod, both the refresh rate and response time are crucial for gaming performance, but they affect different aspects of your experience. A higher refresh rate makes the screen update faster, reducing motion blur and making everything look smoother. The response time, on the other hand, affects how quickly pixels can change color, which can help minimize ghosting or trailing effects.

That's really helpful, @PresJohnnyGentle. So if I'm mostly playing fast-paced games like FPS and racing sims, should I prioritize a high refresh rate or low response time?

In your case, @HandBanana11b, I would prioritize the 360 Hz refresh rate for those fast-paced games. However, it's also nice to have a low response time (like the 1 ms on the Asus monitor) as it ensures smooth visuals without ghosting or trailing effects.

Great advice, @PresJohnnyGentle. Thanks everyone for your insights! I'll definitely be looking into this monitor and the article @CaptainCorn13 shared. Have a great day, all!
