## Questions & Answers

**Q: The fact that does not have DisplayPort 1.4 is an issue for future proof matters?**
A: No. Display port 1.2 is sufficient got 1440p monitors 170hz. Display port 1.4 is only needed when using 4k resolution this monitor does not offer.

**Q: Freesync/ adapative sync over hdmi? or dp only ?  really important question i need anwsered. asus told me they do. i literally had to buy hdmi to dp.**
A: DP only

**Q: I know Asus monitors, sometimes have an issue with their ventilation and the monitor can be pretty loud, has anyone noticed if this is loud at all**
A: Mine doesnt get loud but it does get quite hot.

**Q: Is Gsync active at 170hz?**
A: Yes, although I keep mine at 160hz. While playing Red Dead Redemption 2 I experienced some slight flickering when the screen turned mostly white at the full 170hz
Although in counter strike and other games I had no issues. Monitor is insanely awesome! Was skeptical at first of the price tag, but now that I have it I couldn’t go back!

Also easy to switch from different Monitor speeds on the fly. So going from 170 to 160 or 144 and back is quick and simple.
