Tear-Free, Ghost-Free Gaming

AMD FreeSync™ Premium and NVIDIA® G-SYNC® compatibility ensure tear-free visuals. These features deliver smooth, perfectly-synced imagery by enabling variable refresh rate (VRR) by default. In addition, Extreme Low Motion Blur Sync (ELMB Sync) technology prevents ghosting and further protects against tearing, while ASUS Variable Overdrive automatically adjusts settings for optimal performance at any frame rate.

Next-level motion clarity is made possible by new Extreme Low Motion Blur 2 (ELMB 2) technology, featuring a dual backlight design with two LED strips and ten backlight zones. With five different level settings available, ELMB 2 effectively minimizes motion blur and ghosting.
