ASUS’ TUF Gaming VG32VQ display features concurrent motion blur reduction and adaptive-sync

ASUS’ TUF brand is entering the monitor market, bringing with it new technologies which have so far been absent from the broader display market, concurrent motion blur reduction technology and adaptive-sync (Variable Refresh Rates/VRR), creating what ASUS terms Extreme Low Motion Blur Sync (ELMB-SYNC). 

Typically, you can either have ELMB or adaptive-sync, as ELMB technology requires a strobing backlight and syncing this backlight with a variable refresh rate display isn’t an easy task, which is why ASUS’ concurrent ELMB and Adaptive Sync capabilities are so noteworthy. 

ASUS claims that their ELMB-Sync technology is “ASUS-exclusive”, which means that it might take a while for similar features to become available from other monitor makers. 

This tech should release first with ASUS’ TUF Gaming VG32VQ, a 32-inch 1440p VA monitor which supports HDR and a 144Hz refresh rate. ASUS has not specified the full HDR capabilities of this display or its intended release date, though its inclusion of ELMB-Sync along makes this monitor one to watch out for.
