GamePlus is yet another gaming feature which allows you to fix four different types of crosshairs on your screen and thus gain the edge over your opponents with a more precise and deadly aim. Moreover, you can place a timer and an FPS counter to your screen and monitor the performance of your GPU.

By doing so, you will be able to overclock the monitor’s Hz rate up to 165Hz and achieve a more stable FPS rate. The higher Hz rate delivers lesser lag and screen tearing or stuttering even at the maxed out settings which is mandatory for competitive gaming.
Professional gamers whether of RTS, RPG, FPS or Sports gaming genres will all have the ultimate gaming experience with high-quality graphics and fluid gameplay. The quick response time, high Hz rate, G-Sync, and Ultra Motion Blur features make for the state of the art performance in games. As the ASUS PG278QR has a TN panel, professional designers and photographers will, obviously, have to look for a more color accurate monitor with an IPS panel.
