The ASUS TUF Gaming VG27WQ5F is a 27-inch, 1500R-curved QHD gaming monitor with a 220Hz refresh rate, Fast VA panel, and AMD FreeSync Premium. It suits PC gamers who want sharp 1440p visuals, high refresh rates, and variable-refresh-rate support.
Recommended For
- PC gamers who switch between competitive shooters and visually rich games: its triple-mode display lets them choose QHD at 220Hz, FHD at 280Hz, or HD at 410Hz (OC), depending on the game and desired frame rate.
- Desktop PC gamers seeking a sharp, high-refresh gaming setup: the 27-inch QHD screen pairs a detailed 2560 × 1440 image with a maximum 220Hz refresh rate and FreeSync Premium.
- Players who prefer stronger contrast for games in a dim room: the VA panel’s high native contrast is a fit for darker scenes, while the curved 1500R screen is designed for a more enveloping, head-on desktop view.
- Players who want to adjust gaming settings from their PC rather than navigate monitor menus: ASUS lists DisplayWidget Center, GameVisual presets, and gaming-focused features such as Shadow Boost and Dynamic Crosshair.
Real-World Use Scenarios
- When playing visually detailed single-player games on a PC, use QHD mode to keep the image sharp while the curved screen and high contrast help make the game world feel more immersive. The monitor’s top refresh rate in this mode is available when enabled and supported by the system.
- For competitive shooters or battle royale games, switch to FHD or HD mode when prioritizing higher refresh rates over resolution. This can suit fast-paced play, provided the PC can produce enough frames and the game supports the selected resolution.
- In games where frame rates fluctuate, Adaptive-Sync and ELMB Sync are intended to reduce tearing and motion blur, helping gameplay look steadier without requiring a perfectly fixed frame rate.
- When playing dark competitive maps, Dynamic Shadow Boost can brighten darker areas to make details easier to see. Its usefulness depends on the game scene and the selected monitor settings.
- For everyday PC use alongside gaming—such as browsing, watching video, or light image work—the 27-inch QHD screen provides more workspace and detail than Full HD, while its curved format keeps the display within a comfortable viewing area. Its 99% sRGB coverage is aimed at general color use, not a guarantee of professional color accuracy.

Reference Q&A
Q: ASUS TUF VG27WQ5F or VG27AQML5F for high-refresh QHD gaming?
A: Choose the VG27WQ5F for its curved Fast VA display and triple modes: QHD at 220Hz, FHD at 280Hz, or HD at 410Hz (overclocked). Choose the VG27AQML5F if your priority is a higher QHD refresh rate: it uses a Fast IPS panel and supports up to 320Hz at QHD.
Q: How does the ASUS TUF VG27WQ5F compare with the VG27AQL5F?
A: Both are 27-inch QHD monitors with a 220Hz maximum refresh rate. Choose the VG27WQ5F for a curved Fast VA screen and triple-resolution refresh modes; choose the VG27AQL5F for a flat Fast IPS screen, 95% DCI-P3 color coverage, and a stand with height, swivel, and pivot adjustment.
Q: Should I choose the VG27WQ5F or the ASUS TUF VG27AQML5A?
A: Choose the VG27WQ5F for its curved screen and flexibility to switch among QHD 220Hz, FHD 280Hz, and HD 410Hz (overclocked). Choose the VG27AQML5A for a Fast IPS panel and a higher QHD maximum refresh rate of 300Hz.
Q: What does the ASUS TUF VG27WQ5F add over the VG27WQ1B?
A: Both are 27-inch curved QHD TUF monitors. The VG27WQ5F offers a 220Hz QHD maximum refresh rate and triple-mode options, while the VG27WQ1B supports up to 165Hz at QHD. Choose the VG27WQ5F when the higher refresh rate and resolution-switching modes are priorities.
Q: Will this monitor work with a PS5 or another gaming console?
A: Yes. It has two HDMI 2.1 ports, so a compatible console can connect by HDMI. The console and game determine the available resolution and refresh rate; the monitor’s 220Hz maximum is a PC-focused ceiling, not a guarantee of 220Hz from a console.
Q: Can I mount it on a monitor arm or wall mount?
A: Yes. It supports a 100 x 100 mm VESA mount. Its included stand adjusts for tilt only, so a compatible monitor arm or wall mount is the option for height adjustment or other positioning changes.
Q: Does it have built-in speakers, and can I use it for video meetings?
A: It has two built-in 2W speakers for basic audio, but no built-in webcam. For video meetings, connect a separate webcam; for clearer or louder sound, use separate speakers or a headset.
Q: Is it suitable for both office work and gaming?
A: It can serve both uses: the 27-inch QHD screen provides workspace for everyday tasks, while its high refresh rate and FreeSync Premium support gaming. The trade-offs for office use are its tilt-only included stand and lack of USB-C; it connects through DisplayPort or HDMI.
Q: Is the VG27WQ5F a good choice for competitive shooters, or should I choose an IPS monitor?
A: It may suit players who prioritize high refresh rates and stronger contrast: the VG27WQ5F is a 27-inch QHD Fast VA monitor with a listed 220Hz maximum refresh rate and 5000:1 contrast ratio. A Reddit discussion comparing it with the IPS VG27AQM5A raised the trade-off that VA panels can show dark-scene smearing or ghosting, while IPS is generally preferred when minimizing those effects is more important. The discussion does not establish how noticeable this is on the VG27WQ5F specifically.
