WHAT EACH CHOICE ASKS OF YOU

What it brings and what to check

ASUS ProArt Display PA279CRV

What it brings

ASUS lists 100% sRGB, 99% Adobe RGB and 99% DCI-P3 with 10-bit colour, ΔE < 2, Calman Verified and a colour pre-calibration report, plus presets that include DICOM and Rec.2020.
Manufacturer source
USB-C carries video and up to 96 W of laptop charging, alongside two HDMI 2.0 inputs, a DisplayPort 1.4 input plus a DisplayPort MST output for daisy chaining, PIP/PBP and a USB hub with USB-C and USB-A ports.
Manufacturer source Manufacturer source Manufacturer source
The 3840 × 2160 panel works out at 163 ppi, which ASUS says is four times the pixel density of similarly sized Full HD displays; the stand gives 130 mm of height travel, ±30° swivel and ±90° pivot.
Manufacturer source Manufacturer source

What to check

Refresh tops out at 60 Hz, with a 48–60 Hz vertical input range and a 5 ms GtG response rating.
Manufacturer source
HDR tops out at VESA DisplayHDR 400: ASUS declares a 400 cd/m² HDR peak and 1000:1 typical contrast for the LED-backlit IPS panel.
Manufacturer source
Daisy chaining needs an MST-capable source and Power Saving at Normal Level, and the input is fixed rather than auto-detected while the DisplayPort output cable is connected.
