"PB278B is not factory calibrated (quite a significant variance before and after our manual calibration). Other than that, there was no perceptible backlight bleeding and input lag during gaming sessions was tolerable (purportedly 5ms GTG). Startup time from power-on is also pretty snappy (2-3 seconds).

Of course, gaming enthusiasts should note that high-quality performance will come with a price - and this comes in the form of a power graphics. Games running at the 2560 x 1440 resolution will tax the graphics card more than it would have on a 1920 x 1080 resolution and gamers should actually expect a dip in overall graphics performance if they stick to a card that was struggling at 1080p. However, should you have a powerful graphics card, the ASUS PB278Q will do your GPU justice by producing vibrant, pin-sharp images and graphics that is bound to wow your friends and family.
