The Asus VE278Q is a large, full-HD resolution (1920x1080) monitor. It supports the latest digital connection standard, DisplayPort, as an input option along with the more common VGA, DVI, and HDMI inputs. This monitor also uses LED backlighting which helps reduce power consumption.
Jeff Stubbers (Tier 3 Consulting Lead) Says:
I like the fact that this monitor accepts 4 different input options of VGA, DVI, HDMI, or DisplayPort. You only need to connect one of these inputs, but having all of these options helps to make sure the monitor will be compatible with your graphics card outputs.
This monitor comes with:
1 DVI cable
1 VGA cable.
If you want to connect from your system to your monitor using one of the other connection types (HDMI, DisplayPort), you will need to source those cables elsewhere.
It's important to note that while this is physically a larger monitor, it still only provides 1920x1080 resolution, so you will not have more screen real estate to use compared to a smaller monitor of same 1920x1080 resolution.
