Great initiative!

Roy has brought up my worries as well.

I would like to experience ASUS Motherboards and their UEFI but i don't have extra PC to test... And I'm not going to risk tearing down my only system... Plus too lazy to teardown/assemble twice in a week. Haha

Hello guys!

Having read the comments by some of the members, it's heartening to know that forum users are looking out for us as well! :s13:

So in the interest of fairness, I'm proposing a tier-ed deposit scheme for the loan system. By doing this, it adds a level of security for us and should keep users on their toes to maintain and upkeep the sample they received.

Of course, the full deposit will be fully refunded to users upon the return of sample in good and working condition.

And so.... tadah!!

So guys, check out post 2 and see if there are any products you'd like to try and hit me up! :D:D

I +1 to pdpa laws and what not cos with deposit you need a record system that ensure the confidentiality integrity and assurance of the information.

On another note, Asus headphones are something I have always wanted to try out lol

I would suggest maybe setting up a small area inside your office, open for public once or twice a week and let people walk in and try out the various products. They can be of open system so that people can try out various board, gpus and others.

With this, you ease the process of collecting information and money, which can be tricky. And you also ease the fear of people abusing the items.

Hmm. Not so easy leh. For one, my office is only open during office hours. And it's not exactly accessible for all since it's in the East side

I appreciate the suggestion though! Ty ty :D

I'm currently building an AMD ryzen 2700 and using Crosshair Hero Vi.

In the market for monitors and other accessories currently.

Loans may not be so simple to handle due to high liabilities. Unless you have like a room for people to tinker around and put back the items after usage. You also will need to screen users of such programs, if not any damage or loss hard to peg to anyone.

Perhaps vlogging is required during installation / usage of items?

I am also assuming these will not be commercial samples?

OT a bit, I have a love hate relationship with the C6H and my 1800x cos well early adopter and the board hates my rams.

Suggest you get the C7H instead unless you get Samsung B dies and mod the bios.

Ok end of OT before tio from Asus Jiejie again

Thanks for tips will keep in mind. Already planning to flash the bios to install 2700. Everything still inside box, just getting room ready for installation, I got my C6H at a good deal price and its been awhile since I plan to make my own rig.

Latest bios is good cos it brought back Precision Boost Overdrive for the 2000 series Ryzen. Just remember to get Samsung B ram and use the DRAM calculator:
https://www.overclock.net/forum/13-amd-general/1640919-new-dram-calculator-ryzena-1-4-1-overclocking-dram-am4.html

Seems like it works well with Samsung chips but hates hynix ones aka mine :(

PG258Q 240Hz

Forum Nick: x0fff8
Sample requested: PG258Q
Duration of loan: 2weeks (Not sure if its possible since the post stated its 1 week by default)

Hey ASUS, just chanced on this program and thought to give it a try. Wondering if its possible to try out the PG258Q monitor? Been seeing a ton of FPS pros on this monitor. I've been wanting to try a 240Hz monitor to see if it's worth the upgrade over a 144hz for the longest time!

Looking forward to hear from you guys! :s12:

Sample requested: ROG Swift PG27UQ or PG348Q
Duration of loan: 2 weeks

I bought PG279Q in one of the last IT shows and then PS4 Pro later. Been wanting to try PS4 Pro on a 4k monitor before deciding to do the selling/buying one. This is a good program for this purpose. Which one would you recommend to try first?

Hi xiaodouya,

Is the monitor solely for console? PG348Q is not 4K though, 1440p like your current PG279Q. Upcoming, we will have a 4K monitor targeted at console gamers - CG32UQ

Yes, i need a monitor to cater for my PS4 Pro 4K at the moment, while I wait to build my 4k PC.
It may not make economical sense to buy a monitor that is catered for consoles but I don't know about this..
Do you mean to say that both PG27UQ or PG348Q do not have a 4K resolution output as I see those specifications online?

Hi xiaodouya,

Specs as follow:

ROG Swift PG27UQ - 3840x2160, 4K, G-SYNC HDR, DisplayHDR 1000
ROG Swift PG348Q - 3440x1440, UWQHD, G-SYNC

IMO, not practical to get monitors with 21:9 resolution if you intend to use it with a console.
