Asus  PB258Q is better. It's semi-pro monitor. VX is consumer series.

ips is hella old and I don't think it's even IPS, I don't think anyone makes 1440p panels with 1996 technology. pcmonitor.info reports it as AHVA panel, which is only IPS type. 

 

 

AH-IPS is the newest type of IPS panel improved in every area.

It's really not a replacement.  LG owns IPS technology and the name, and AHVA is AU Optronics version of an IPS panel.  They cannot legally call it IPS so it's always described as IPS-like.

if they can't really call it that it's not really that then, it's similar.

honesatly i wouldn't get teh pg258q it might be cheaper but at 25inchs text is pretty small. i would just save a bit more and get the pg278q

IPS is a large category. AH-IPS is a specific type of panel inside the IPS category. I think both of those monitors use AH-IPS panels, one spec sheet is just more specific than the other.

yea im honestly dissapointed that the pg278q hasn't come down in price. kind of sucks atleast the 258q has better pixel density
