ASUS ProArt PA279CRV Review

ASUS ProArt PA279CRV 27-inch 4K IPS professional monitor with 100% sRGB coverage, HDR10, and 96W USB-C power delivery docking.

ASUS positions this as the practical, single-cable answer for creative professionals and hybrid workers who need 4K sharpness and accurate color but don't need the ultra-wide-gamut calibration of ProArt's flagship models. The 96W USB-C port charges a laptop while carrying video and data over one cable, and the built-in RJ45 ethernet jack is a small but genuinely useful touch for docking at a desk with wired internet.

A Practical Docking Solution, Not Just a Panel

The combination of high-wattage USB-C, ethernet, and a factory-calibrated panel means this monitor can replace a separate USB-C dock entirely for most laptop-based workflows.

Comparison to Alternatives

Compared to the Dell UltraSharp U3223QE, the ASUS is smaller at 27 inches versus Dell's 32-inch canvas but keeps pace on USB-C wattage and color accuracy at a friendlier price. Against the BenQ PD3225U, the PA279CRV gives up BenQ's larger screen and CAD/CAM-specific modes in exchange for a tighter pixel pitch better suited to a standard desk.
