23.8-inch 165 Hz gaming monitor

This 23.8-inch Full HD IPS display reaches a 165 Hz overclocked refresh rate with a 1 ms MPRT response time. Adaptive-Sync and ASUS Extreme Low Motion Blur work together to reduce ghosting and tearing. The panel covers wide 178° viewing angles and includes integrated speakers.

Competitive players wanting high refresh rates

The 165 Hz panel suits fast-paced shooters, racing and RTS titles where motion clarity matters. Buyers who need higher resolution or a larger screen area should look elsewhere. The monitor is sold as a refurbished unit, so shoppers seeking a factory-sealed product will not be served here.

ELMB, Shadow Boost and GamePlus

ASUS Extreme Low Motion Blur combines 1 ms MPRT with Adaptive-Sync to sharpen moving objects. Shadow Boost automatically brightens dark zones to reveal hidden details. GamePlus hotkeys add crosshair, timer and FPS counter overlays. FreeSync Premium operates over both DisplayPort and HDMI for variable refresh rates.

Questions about this item

What graphics-card output do I need to reach the 165 Hz refresh rate on this monitor?

Use a DisplayPort cable; the monitor’s DisplayPort input supports the full 165 Hz overclocked rate, while HDMI is limited to 144 Hz.

Will my older GPU that only does 144 Hz at 1080p still work with this 165 Hz panel?

Yes — the monitor accepts 144 Hz over HDMI and will run at that rate without any extra setup.

How can I verify the monitor is actually running at 165 Hz after I connect it?

Open the on-screen display and check the information page; it will show the current refresh rate as 165 Hz when the overclock is active.
