More on reddit.comWhat's the difference between the ROG XG279Q-W and the ROG XG27AQ-W?
They have different panels: the XG279Q uses an AU Optronics M270DAN06.6 while the XG27AQ uses a '6.8 revision. RTings reviewed both, and the only major difference they found was that the 9Q gets brighter. The 9Q released in 2020 while the AQ released in 2021. I'm struggling to find release dates of the white versions of each, but the only difference should be the color.
