For those of you who don’t know, “Mecha” in the anime world is used to refer to movies with sci-fi themes, featuring futuristic robot images. I have to use this definition to call ASUS TUF VG30VQL1A because it gives me a feeling like a fighting machine coming out of the “Mecha” world.

The design of the stand, and the wiring, to the back of the screen are designed with a rough surface, and dotted with subtle accents, creating a strong feeling of the armored skin robots fighting on the battlefield. Thereby dispelling the feeling of the plastic material used to make this screen.

I don’t know about you, but I’m the type of love with eyes. If a device has a beautiful design and is especially “cool” like a gamer, then it is very easy for me to be … “fall in love” at first sight. It seems the ASUS TUF GAMING VG30VQL1A is doing a great job of it.

With a sufficiently aggressive appearance but still exuding a unique quality, a “Mecha” substance, the ASUS TUF GAMING VG30VQL1A will be a pocket-worthy monitor for those who are passionate about “decor” style rooms robotic and military way.

I have to admit that ASUS TUF VG30VQL1A gave me a good visual experience not only for gaming but also for working. It also makes me not want to go back to the 24-inch gaming monitor I’m using.

The first strong point of ASUS TUF GAMING VG30VQL1A is the 21:9 screen ratio, 30-inch size, and 1500R curvature. With such a large and long screen ratio and size (and even curved), not only female gamers but we male gamers also love it. Simply because when the display space is expanded, it helps me to be more immersed in the game world.

To enjoy this monitor, I tried 2 game titles including a racing game Forza Horizon 5, and an open-world game Genshin Impact. Normally, I just need to glance left or right to finish the 24-inch screen, but when I switch to the 30-inch screen, I look around and I will have to turn my head slightly, not just glance. Of course, when I had to rotate the head more left or right to observe the game environment around the character, I realized that the feeling at that time was much more real. When it’s more real, it also makes it easier for me to immerse myself in the game world.

Gaming is primarily about separating the mind from reality, thereby taking us on a journey and discovering the backstory of characters that are not real but bring an emotion true. When ASUS TUF GAMING VG30VQL1A helps me immerse myself in the game world, and push my emotional boat closer to the character’s mood, my virtual world experience has been raised to a new level.

I see many friends say that the 21:9 screen is still curved, mainly for playing games, and working is a bit boring. However, according to my experience, it is not boring at all. With a larger display space, multitasking that requires opening many different tabs, applications, and browser windows become easier, so there is no need to squeeze the space of other applications.

Perhaps what makes me feel a bit bored is that the 21:9 curved screen is a bit too long, so sometimes having to rotate my head left and right is a bit tiring for my neck, and it makes me tired quickly and just wants to… quickly open the game play for fun.

One of the cores used to define what is good gaming is smoothness. Besides the smoothness of components when operating smoothly without damage, or minor errors, the smooth scanning frequency screen is the next “lock” that gamers need to “unlock”.

I also confess to you that I usually use 144Hz and 165Hz screens mainly, but rarely touch 200Hz screens like ASUS TUF GAMING VG30VQL1A. Although 165Hz and 200Hz are not too far apart, I still feel the smoothness clearly, so what if you upgrade the experience from the traditional 60Hz screen to the ASUS TUF 200Hz screen? The answer is that you will be suffocated immediately, but “suffocating” in happiness.

The harmonious combination of good hardware performance, ensuring high FPS and 200Hz refresh rate as well as built-in AMD Freesync Premium technology, makes your experience in fast-paced games like League of Legends. Can be said to be very satisfied, only the screen is long, so “checking the map” is a bit tiring.

The performance of the high 200Hz refresh rate also encroaches on working needs, because it gives a different feeling even in everyday tasks. Have you ever moved the mouse pointer to run figure 8 on the high refresh rate screen to see its smoothness? To make it easy for you to imagine, I am entertained in the middle of work by moving the mouse pointer to figure 8, or holding the mouse on the window and moving it around just to enjoy the smoothness of 200Hz, and I can assure you that entertaining in that way is quite effective.

In short, not only in the game but also in real life. The smoother it is, the happier it is, but in the middle of working or going into battle… the game that keeps jerking with interruptions in the middle is boring.

Do you think colors have emotions? I don’t know about you, but for me. A beautiful graphic game that is carefully invested in color will more or less attract the attention of gamers at first eye contact. Specifically here is the game Horizon Zero Dawn, an open-world role-playing game that I love to play over and over again in the opening scene when the main character Aloy is first led to visit the scenery outside the village.

Everything from the sound, the colors of the mountains, the grasslands, and so on made a strong impression on me the first time I played. So since then, I took it as a color test standard on monitors with quality color gamut such as ASUS TUF GAMING VG30VQL1A, to see if it could simulate my emotions when playing that scene or not.

With 127% sRGB, 99% DCI-P3, and HDR10 color gamut, ASUS VG30VQL1A reproduced the vivid colors of Horizon Zero Dawn quite well. Although it was not possible to recover 100% of the emotions the first time I played, the ASUS TUF GAMING VG30VQL1A did a great job of making me feel a sense of relief, when I was able to look back at the scene with a vibrant and catchy eye.

Of course, each person will have a different worldview, but after the experience, I feel that, if you choose ASUS TUF GAMING VG30VQL1A as a monitor for the first experience full of colors and emotions when playing games, you will have a different experience. AAA games with beautiful graphics will be an option worth considering.

Both large and long, but also curved, and yet also move smoothly, with little interruptions and eye-catching colors, such screens are not easy to find in the soft price segment under $380. However, that time is over. ASUS TUF GAMING VG30VQL1A with criteria to satisfy the solution needs including super wide display space, large size, super high scanning frequency, and beautiful color will be a worthy choice for any gamers who want to elevate the gaming experience, but still, have to keep a reasonable price.
