This is one of the few 16:10 monitors available that aren’t 60hz. I really think this should be an example that gets reviewed!

You can currently vote for it in our Suggestion Tool and if it’s popular enough, we’ll buy and test it!

Thanks for reviewing this monitor! I’m mostly interested in how it performs for content creation (video and photo editing), especially with regards to color accuracy, brightness, and black levels. Also, how well it works with MacOS and Apple silicon chips (M1, M2, M3, etc.)

I would like to know how this monitor performs when compared to other designer orientated monitors such as the BenQ PD series and if this is good for digital design as well as print design.

Hello Rtings, can you show me the factory calibration sheet that this monitor has in the ASUS ProArt Display box?

Rtings please let me see the photo of the calibration sheet that this monitor had, I simply want to compare the factory calibration with my Asus PG27UQR

Rtings please let me see the photo of the calibration sheet that this monitor had

it it “normal” that UHD monitors have issues on special patterns? e..g. https://rt.sk/%7Ejmi/uhd_issue/asus_issue_1.png if displayed 1:1 on either ASUS ProArt Display PA279CRV or DELL S2722QC then i got strange “lines” to the left and right of that pattern. Zoomed foto: https://rt.sk/~jmi/uhd_issue/PXL_20240110_113525348.PORTRAIT.ORIGINAL.jpg

Also with same pattern with various sizes and offsets (especially if multiple such windows are open with different position) i can get green or puple image out of than … here is example foto from leveno y32p-30 but same I got on this asus as well an mentioned dell. https://rt.sk/%7Ejmi/uhd_issue/lenovo_foto.jpg And this is test picutre to get it: https://rt.sk/%7Ejmi/uhd_issue/lenovo.png (again must be displayed 1:1 with no scaling on any level - not even OS).

I described more, also added some video here: https://computergraphics.stackexchange.com/questions/13869/uhd-monitor-showing-artifacts-for-cetrain-patterns-e-g-lighter-lines-or-image

are these problems with dual monitor setup and 2 pcs connected to each “normal”? 1) PC connected to this asus with DP, while laptop via USB-C. When laptop goes to sleep i wake it up, asus PA279CRV doesn’t wake up and i have to click on any button? (was connected via USB-C) .. while dell S2722QC connected with HDMI has no issue…. in this setup i had powersaving set to deep mode on asus display, otherwise there is other even worse issue…

2) pc connected to PA279CRV via HDMI and laptop via USB-C. When doing input/source-swich on asus, then PC “blinks” for a second or two. This happens if I use HDMI cable delivered with this monitor, or also other 8k hdmi2.1 cable, but instead if i use ages old HDMI cable (however still supporting 4k 60hz) it works without blinking when switching input. However with later cable input switching itself is an issue, as using dedicated input switch button on monitor does nothing and i have to instead switch it to that HDMI over full sized OSD of monitor.

3) pc connected to either dell s2722qc or asus (With both same issue) via HDMI while to other monitor via DP. Laptop is connected to both monitors as well in some way (Seems doesn’t matter how). If i use old HDMI cable (as decribed in 2), to connect PC to any of these monitors, then (besides issue 2) it’s “ok”. However if i use any of newer HMID cables, then returning input source from laptop to PC on monitor connected with HDMI to PC, then PC blinks for a second or two and more importantly it moves all windows to other monitor … which is very bad for productivity.

pc is having radeon saphire rx550, notebook is dell xps with some intel graphics

Hi! Sorry to hear you are having issues with your dual monitors’ setting. It’s hard to say why you are having those problems but it is not uncommon to have certain wake up/handshake issues. It could be because the monitors have different EDID’s and the PC’s don’t know what to do in some cases but we cannot be 100% sure this is the reason. Unfortunately, we don’t really know how to fix it. Sorry we cannot be more of an help for you.

Does the ProArt Display PA279CRV support 60Hz through HDMI from a MacBook M1 Max with HDR? I thought I might have read somewhere that it’s limited to 30Hz via HDMI at 4k.

Thanks, Andrew

Yes, it works up to 60Hz over HDMI!

Hoping someone can recommend an alternative for me. At this point I’ve had poor experiences with both the U2723QE and the PA279CRV, including really bad color uniformity (especially in the corners and on the bottoms of the screen) and dead pixels out of the box. I’m not sure if I’m just getting lemons or what. I’m looking for something that is around the same price point as these two. I’ll only be using the monitor for work and not gaming. The room I’m using this in is very well lit so I need something that gets bright. I would love something that has fantastic color uniformity but I do not want an OLED (for a few reasons, but mainly because they’re expensive, not bright enough for me, and I fear burn-in). I know that I want a 4k resolution for text clarity. Any suggestions? Please and thank you!

I recently acquired 2 of these displays. I connected one display to my windows HP Elitebook 840G8 laptop via USB C and then I daisy chained via Display Port 1.4 to extend. The monitor connected to the laptop is working well with 4k @60HZ. However, the daisy chained monitor is limited to 4k @30HZ. Not sure why I can’t access the max 60Hz refresh rate. The USB C port on the laptop is USB C Alt Thunderbolt 4. I used the cables provided in the monitor box. I’m assuming the cables are meant to provide the max bandwidth that the monitor supports. Does someone have any idea about the issue and the solution?

Try setting the USB-C Prioritization to High Resolution on the Dell.

I bough this display and found it can daisy chain on windows 11 at full resolution and 60hz as the primary display, using a Displayport to USB-c / Thunderbolt cable. ie the second monitor in the chain receives USB-C. Both have 60 hertz this way.

Having bought one, this many be a limitation of your laptop. I could plug in to 4k monitors directly via USB-C, and also daisy chain both at 60hz.

I’ve had terrible issues with ghosting/image persistence with this monitor after just a few months. Did not expect that at this price point.
