My Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 GPU can handle Jedi: Fallen Order at max settings, but it would get up to around 80 frames per second. So far, I've been tearing my way through Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order on the hardest difficulty, and I love every second of it, especially on my supersmooth 144Hz monitor.

Gaming: These frames mean I'm better than you Ultimately, the extra 21Hz is pretty useless to me - I can live with 144Hz. I've noticed some serious stuttering in-game only after I overclocked my panel. However, you might not want to do that anyway. You need the Nvidia Control Panel app to enable it. If you're using a DisplayPort, you'll naturally get 144Hz, but you can overclock the display to 165Hz, which took me awhile to figure out.

The only real issue I have with the color, apart from being a tad warm, is that the blacks aren't as deep as they could be and there's no setting that could help me fix that. This mode also gave the display a better white balance. There are also color presets, such as Cool, Warm and Normal, as well as a customizable User Mode, which is where I turned down the Red and Green by 3 points from 100 to balance out the color a bit. It's the worst kind of contrast setting in that it actually doesn't make the colors deeper or bolder in anyway. I kept the contrast at 50 because turning it up would wash out everything, and turning it down would just make things dark and not improve the contrast. Racing looked the best to start, but I cranked the brightness up to 100. The monitor offers six display presettings: Scenery, Racing, Cinema, RTS/RPG, FPS and sRGB. When it came to the display, I noticed right away that the colors were a little too warm. I had to reset my monitor settings to get rid of it on screen. But worst of all, once one of these functions are enabled, there’s no way to disable it. You can do only one of these at a time, which seems like a missed opportunity. Asus' GamePlus software lets you do one of three things: add a crosshair, set a timer or place an FPS counter on-screen. Let's talk about the bane of my existence that is this monitor's GamePlus functions.
