ASUS Republic of Gamers today announced that the ROG Strix XG248QSG Ace has been named as the official monitor for the 2025 BLAST Counter-Strike 2 tournament series. The partnership will span the remaining three events in the BLAST Premier calendar: BLAST Premier Bounty S2 in Malta (August 5–17), BLAST Premier Open S2 in London (August 27–September 7), and BLAST Premier Rivals S2 in Hong Kong (November 12–16).
The ROG Strix XG248QSG Ace is the world’s fastest gaming monitor. The first monitor in the ROG Ace esports collection, it is designed for pro esports and FPS players who demand exceptional responsiveness and performance. Featuring a 24.1-inch FHD (1920 x 1080) Super TN panel with an astounding 610Hz (OC) refresh rate and 0.1ms gray-to-gray (GTG) response time, the XG248QSG Ace delivers incredibly smooth gameplay. Cutting-edge Super TN panel technology helps achieve exceptionally low input lag of just 0.8ms — 56% lower than competing 600Hz monitors.

These advanced features allow professional gamers to see and react faster than their opponents, offering a decisive competitive edge.

The stand also offers 160mm height adjustment, +45° to -45° swivel, and a wide tilt range of -5° to +35°, allowing gamers to customize their setup for maximum comfort and precision. The XG248QSG retailsfor US$899 (MSRP).
