ASUS ROG Strix XG259QNS computer monitor 62.2 cm (24.5") 1920 x 1080 pixels Full HD LCD Black

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

For £362 ex-VAT, the ASUS ROG Strix XG259QNS needs to be “the one” for a pretty specific kind of buyer—and I’m not sure it is, unless you’re very focused on fast, competitive gaming in a 24–25 inch format. The Strix line is usually good at smooth motion and gaming-first tuning, and 1080p on a smaller panel can look crisp enough at normal viewing distances. If you’re running esports titles and want responsiveness over everything else (and you sit close), this kind of monitor can feel great day-to-day.

That said, this price is hard to justify if you’re not actually chasing gaming performance. In 2026, spending mid‑£300s on Full HD is easy to second-guess when many alternatives offer higher resolution for the same money—or close to it—making text, productivity and game detail more satisfying. Also, if you do mixed work and gaming, you’ll likely prefer something that’s more “one monitor for everything” rather than a dedicated esports spec. If your use is mostly competitive gaming and you know you want this panel size and format, it’s a sensible ROG pick; if you want value and flexibility, I’d look around before committing.
