Description

ASUS TUF – VG259QR Gaming 25 Inch  Pixels LCD Monitor – Full Hd, 165Hz, 1Ms, Extreme Low Motion, Speaker, Shadow Boost, Vesa Mountable, Displayport, Hdmi Black

The ASUS TUF Gaming VG259QR is a high-performance 25-inch Full HD gaming monitor designed for gamers who want smooth motion, fast response, enhanced visibility and flexible ergonomics. Featuring a 1920 × 1080 Full HD resolution, 165Hz refresh rate, 1ms MPRT response time, and ASUS gaming technologies, the VG259QR provides a responsive display experience for competitive gaming, entertainment and everyday computing.

Built around a 16:9 widescreen format, the monitor provides a practical balance between image clarity, gaming performance and desktop space. The 165Hz refresh rate allows compatible systems to deliver significantly smoother motion than conventional 60Hz displays, while ASUS Extreme Low Motion Blur (ELMB) helps reduce perceived motion blur and ghosting during fast-moving gameplay.

The monitor also features ASUS Shadow Boost, which enhances details in darker areas of games without excessively brightening already-visible areas. This can make it easier to identify objects and environmental details in dark scenes.

For comfortable long gaming sessions, the VG259QR includes an extensive ergonomic stand with height, tilt, swivel and pivot adjustment. It also supports VESA mounting, providing additional flexibility for gaming desks, monitor arms and wall-mounted installations.

25-Inch Full HD Gaming Display

The ASUS TUF Gaming VG259QR features a 25-inch class Full HD display with a 1920 × 1080 resolution.

Full HD provides a practical resolution for competitive gaming because it allows compatible gaming hardware to target high frame rates without the significantly greater rendering requirements associated with higher resolutions.

The 16:9 aspect ratio is widely supported by modern PC games, multimedia content and gaming platforms, making the monitor suitable for a broad range of applications.

165Hz Refresh Rate for Smooth Gaming

One of the main performance features of the ASUS TUF Gaming VG259QR is its 165Hz refresh rate.

A higher refresh rate allows the display to update the image more frequently, resulting in smoother movement and more fluid on-screen transitions when the connected system can produce sufficiently high frame rates.

Compared with conventional 60Hz monitors, 165Hz can make fast gameplay feel considerably more fluid.

It is particularly useful for:

• FPS Gaming
• Esports
• Racing Games
• Battle Royale
• Action Games
• Competitive Multiplayer
• Fast-Paced Games

The high refresh rate also improves everyday desktop interaction, making scrolling, window movement and cursor motion appear smoother.

1ms MPRT Response Time

The VG259QR supports a 1ms MPRT response time, helping reduce the perceived blur associated with rapidly moving images.

A fast motion-response specification is particularly useful during competitive gameplay where targets, cameras and environments can move rapidly across the screen.

The 1ms MPRT capability works together with the high refresh rate to provide a responsive gaming experience.

It can be especially useful when:

• Tracking opponents
• Turning quickly in FPS games
• Following vehicles in racing games
• Moving through fast-action environments
• Performing rapid camera movements

ASUS Extreme Low Motion Blur (ELMB)

ASUS Extreme Low Motion Blur (ELMB) is one of the key gaming technologies featured on the VG259QR.

ELMB is designed to reduce motion blur and make fast-moving objects appear sharper. This can improve visual clarity when rapidly moving the camera or tracking objects across the screen.

When enabled in supported scenarios, ELMB works as part of the monitor’s gaming-focused display technology to provide clearer motion.

Benefits of ELMB

• Reduces perceived motion blur
• Helps minimise ghosting
• Improves moving-object clarity
• Enhances fast-paced gameplay
• Useful for competitive gaming

For gamers who regularly play FPS, racing and action titles, clearer motion can make rapidly changing scenes easier to follow.

ASUS Shadow Boost for Enhanced Dark-Scene Visibility

Gaming environments often contain dark areas where important objects or opponents can be difficult to see.

The ASUS Shadow Boost feature is designed to improve visibility in darker areas of the image while avoiding excessive exposure in already-bright areas.

This can be useful in games featuring:

• Dark interiors
• Night-time environments
• Underground areas
• Shadow-heavy maps
• Dark corners
• Low-light combat situations

By improving visibility in darker areas, Shadow Boost provides gamers with additional control over how dark scenes are displayed.

Gaming-Focused Visual Performance

The combination of 165Hz refresh rate, 1ms MPRT and ASUS ELMB gives the VG259QR a strong focus on fast-moving gaming.

The monitor is designed to provide:

• Smooth motion
• Fast response
• Reduced perceived blur
• Clearer moving objects
• Improved gaming visibility

This makes it suitable for users who want a display focused on responsive Full HD gaming rather than prioritising extremely high resolution.

Matte Screen Surface

The monitor uses a matte screen finish designed to minimise distracting reflections from surrounding light sources.

A matte surface can be particularly useful in gaming rooms, offices and bedrooms where ambient lighting or windows may create reflections on glossy displays.

The reduced-reflection surface helps users concentrate on the content displayed on screen during longer gaming or work sessions.

1000:1 Contrast Ratio

The VG259QR provides a 1000:1 contrast ratio, helping create separation between darker and brighter areas of the image.

Contrast plays an important role in games, movies and everyday content because it affects how clearly different tonal areas are distinguished.

The combination of the monitor’s contrast ratio and Shadow Boost technology gives users additional flexibility when viewing darker gaming environments.

170° Viewing Angle

The monitor provides a 170° viewing angle, allowing content to remain visible from different positions around the display.

While gaming is generally performed directly in front of the screen, a wide viewing angle is also useful for:

• Watching videos
• Sharing gameplay
• Presentations
• Entertainment
• Collaborative viewing
• General desktop use

Ergonomic Stand for Flexible Positioning

The ASUS TUF Gaming VG259QR is equipped with an ergonomically designed stand that allows users to adjust the monitor according to their preferred position.

The stand supports:

• Height Adjustment
• Tilt Adjustment
• Swivel Adjustment
• Pivot Adjustment

This provides considerably more flexibility than a basic fixed stand.

Height Adjustment

Height adjustment allows users to position the screen at a more suitable eye level.

Tilt Adjustment

Tilt adjustment allows the display angle to be changed according to the user’s seating position.

Swivel Adjustment

Swivel functionality allows the monitor to be angled toward different seating positions.

Pivot Adjustment

Pivot functionality allows the display to be rotated for portrait-oriented applications where supported.

The extensive adjustment range makes the VG259QR suitable for gaming desks as well as mixed gaming and productivity environments.

VESA Mount Support

The VG259QR is VESA mountable, allowing users to install the monitor on compatible monitor arms, wall mounts or other mounting systems.

VESA mounting can help:

• Save desk space
• Improve cable organisation
• Create a cleaner gaming setup
• Build multi-monitor configurations
• Position the monitor at a custom height

This is particularly useful for gamers and professionals who prefer a customised workstation.

DisplayPort & HDMI Connectivity

The monitor provides modern display connectivity through DisplayPort and HDMI.

These interfaces allow users to connect compatible:

• Gaming PCs
• Gaming laptops
• Desktop computers
• Media devices
• Other HDMI or DisplayPort-compatible sources

DisplayPort is particularly useful for PC gaming setups targeting high refresh rates, while HDMI provides convenient compatibility with a wide range of modern devices.

Built-In Speakers for Convenient Audio

The ASUS TUF Gaming VG259QR includes built-in speakers, providing convenient audio for everyday multimedia use.

Integrated speakers can be useful for:

• Gaming
• YouTube
• Movies
• Music
• Online videos
• Casual entertainment
• General desktop audio

They also help keep the desk setup simple when external speakers are not required.

For competitive gaming or immersive entertainment, dedicated headphones or external speakers can still be used when preferred.

Gaming & Everyday Productivity

Although the VG259QR is designed primarily as a gaming monitor, its Full HD resolution and ergonomic flexibility also make it suitable for everyday computing.

Users can comfortably use the display for:

• Web browsing
• Documents
• Online learning
• Office applications
• Streaming
• Social media
• General computing

The 16:9 format is also compatible with a wide range of standard multimedia content.

Suitable for Competitive Gaming

The combination of 165Hz refresh rate, 1ms MPRT and ELMB makes the VG259QR particularly suitable for fast-paced gaming.

FPS Gaming

Fast refresh and motion clarity can help make rapid camera movement and target tracking smoother.

Racing Games

The high refresh rate can provide smoother movement during fast vehicle motion.

Battle Royale

Shadow Boost can help improve visibility in darker areas where important details may otherwise be difficult to see.

Action Games

ELMB and the fast refresh rate help provide clearer motion during rapid on-screen action.

Esports

The monitor’s focus on Full HD resolution, high refresh rate and fast response makes it suitable for competitive gaming setups.
