About
A Fast IPS panel factory-overclocked to 280Hz, running ASUS's ELMB Sync algorithm to combine black-frame-insertion strobing with VRR simultaneously — something that historically forced a choice between motion clarity and tear-free VRR. PS5 and Xbox Series S owners routinely hit a firmware bug where the console misdetects a 60fps ceiling over HDMI 2.0, requiring a manual video-fidelity override or an HDMI reset to recover 120Hz.

Confirmed with
- PS5
Multiple users hit a recurring firmware/EDID bug where the PS5 misdetects a 60fps ceiling over HDMI 2.0 despite the game running natively at 120fps — fixed with a manual override in the console's Video Fidelity & Overscan submenu, or by forcing an HDMI reset from the Sony UI.
- Xbox Series X|S
Xbox Series S owners report the same EDID misdetection pattern seen with PS5 — the console defaults to a 60fps ceiling over HDMI 2.0 until the user manually overrides the video fidelity settings.
