The short version
The ProArt Display PA279CV is a 27-inch 3840x2160 IPS monitor at 163 PPI with 100% sRGB coverage, a 350-nit typical rating and HDR10 support. USB-C provides DisplayPort Alt Mode and 65 W of charging, alongside two HDMI 2.0 ports, DisplayPort 1.2 and a four-port USB hub, and ASUS lists it as Calman Verified. It suits photo editing and office work at a modest price. Its 60 Hz refresh limits gaming, and ASUS warns of a 4K 30 Hz limit in one USB-C data mode.

Common questions
Can the PA279CV run 4K at 60 Hz over USB-C?
ASUS warns that video and data share USB bandwidth, limiting the picture to 4K at 30 Hz over USB-C when USB transmission is set to USB 3.2, so check that setting if you connect a laptop over USB-C.
Does the PA279CV charge a laptop?
Yes. ASUS lists USB-C with DisplayPort Alt Mode and 65 W of power delivery, so a compatible laptop can charge and use the display over one cable.
