The display has received DisplayHDR 400 certification and can reach up to 400 nits of peak brightness. It supports 10-bit color through an 8-bit + FRC configuration. For color accuracy, it includes 95% of the DCI-P3 gamut and 130% of the sRGB space. Each unit ships with factory calibration and a printed calibration report.

Asus has added several AI-based features, such as Dynamic Crosshair and Dynamic Shadow Boost. These functions help improve targeting precision and dark area visibility in games.

For connectivity, the XG27ACMEG includes one HDMI 2.1 port, one DisplayPort 1.4, a USB Type-C port with DisplayPort Alt Mode and 15W power delivery, and a 3.5mm audio jack. The monitor also supports VESA 100 x 100mm mounting.

Asus uses a minimalist industrial design with a focus on ergonomics. The stand allows height, swivel, pivot, and tilt adjustments. The monitor can also be controlled through Asus DisplayWidget Center software, which enables quick on-screen settings adjustments.
