Hey guys, I've been running the Asus ROG PG278Q monitor that has G-Sync. I love this monitor everything so smooth now. It's almost like watching videos when playing my games now. It also seems to not be so fatiguing playing long gaming sessions.

But the front of the screen seems to be very hot. So hot that I've been worried and  I put a couple of fans behind the monitor facing so that it blows air towards the bottom vents in the back of monitor. And now the screen is barely warm to the touch.

Linus or Luke maybe you guys should check this out. You have the equipment to check how hot their actually running. How hot is the chip running? What's the chips maximum temperature to be run at? Also is the heat affecting the performance? What about overtime? Those higher temps can't be doing the screen any good. Or anything else inside the monitor.

Has anybody had any issues with their monitors that have G-Sync in them, not just the Asus. Have you even noticed how hot the screen is. I have read complaints and other forms about this. But I've seen no one on YouTube do anything about it. Or even investigate it in any way.

Hopefully I'm wrong. But if I'm not you have the potential of helping a lot of your subscribers. Or at the very least give me a piece of mine (I know BFD lol).

Please guys, check this out.
