Product Note
The 310Hz refresh rate is an overclocked maximum; actual operation depends on the graphics hardware, connection, cable, and display settings. ASUS lists HDMI input frequencies up to 240Hz, while DisplayPort supports the higher refresh-rate range. The 0.3ms figure is a minimum advertised response-time rating, not a guarantee of typical performance. DisplayHDR 400 is an entry-level HDR certification and does not imply local dimming. Verify the regional SKU, warranty, and included accessories with the supplier.
