The short version
The ProArt Display PA279CRV is a 27-inch 3840x2160 IPS monitor at 163 PPI with 99% DCI-P3 and 99% Adobe RGB coverage, a 350-nit typical rating and HDR10 support. USB-C delivers video with 96 W of charging, and two DisplayPort 1.4 connections support daisy-chaining. It suits photographers, designers and laptop users who want wide-gamut color on a budget; its 60 Hz refresh and 5 ms response make it a poor match for fast gaming.

Common questions
Can the PA279CRV charge a laptop over USB-C?
Yes. ASUS lists USB-C with DisplayPort Alt Mode and 96 W of power delivery, so a compatible laptop can run from one cable for video and charging.
Is the PA279CRV suitable for gaming?
Only casually. ASUS rates it for 60 Hz with a 5 ms response time, so it is built for creative and desktop work rather than fast-paced games.
