Product Description
Featuring a three-sided frameless design, an updated compact base footprint, and a fluid 120Hz refresh rate, the PA278QGV merges studio-grade color precision with modern visual smoothness.
Designed for color-critical production, it delivers 100% sRGB, 100% Rec. 709, and 95% DCI-P3 cinema wide-gamut coverage with true 10-bit color depth (1.07 billion shades) and an enhanced 1500:1 typical contrast ratio. Every unit arrives factory pre-calibrated and Calman Verified to achieve a color variance rating of guaranteeing that colors viewed on screen correspond with the final rendered output.
Stepping up from traditional 60Hz creative displays, the PA278QGV introduces a 120Hz variable refresh rate backed by Adaptive-Sync and VESA MediaSync Display certification. This higher frame rate eliminates motion blur and frame tearing when evaluating fast-pacing video renders, scrubbing complex motion-graphics timelines, or testing high-frame-rate game assets. For Mac workflows, the built-in "M Model" preset matches the color space and gamma curve of Apple MacBook Liquid Retina displays, adjustable via the on-screen display or the ASUS DisplayWidget Center software.
Dual 2W stereo speakers and an audio pass-through jack provide convenient sound playback. Certified by TÜV Rheinland for flicker-free and low blue light eye protection, and backed by an official 3-year warranty, the ASUS ProArt PA278QGV is a reliable workstation display for color grading and creative production.
