Heads up if you've been eyeing a decent gaming monitor — the ASUS ROG Strix XG27ACS-W just dropped to Dhs 1,075 at Jumbo, down from Dhs 1,399. That's Dhs 324 off, and honestly, this is a good one to catch.
For context, 27" gaming monitors with these specs usually sit around the Dhs 1,300-1,500 range in UAE, so getting this under Dhs 1,100 is genuinely solid. This is perfect if you've been gaming on a basic monitor and want something that actually keeps up with your setup — the 180Hz refresh rate makes a real difference for competitive games, and the 1ms response time means no annoying lag.
Key things worth knowing:
- 180Hz refresh rate and 1ms response — smooth gameplay without the blur you get on cheaper monitors
- Fast IPS panel — better colors than basic gaming monitors, decent viewing angles
- USB-C connectivity — handy if you want to connect a laptop and charge it through one cable
The catch: it's white, which looks clean but might not match every setup. Also, while it has G-SYNC and FreeSync support, you'll want a decent graphics card to actually push 180fps — but even at lower frame rates, it's still a solid monitor.
If you've been putting off upgrading because of the price, this makes it a lot easier to justify. Good deal, not urgent, but worth grabbing if you need a proper gaming monitor.
