I was able to solve my monitor wake-up problems (up to 30sec to picture) by disabling auto detect on the monitor and setting USB-C as signal input in my example
Yes, you can connect your 2018 MacBook Pro with four Thunderbolt ports to the ProArt PA279CV monitor using a USB-C connection. However, you may encounter compatibility issues with macOS, especially if you haven't updated your operating system or monitor firmware. Make sure to update macOS to a version later than 12.3.1 or download the monitor firmware update to resolve any connection issues.
The ASUS ProArt PA278QV is generally compatible with a Mac Mini as it has HDMI and DisplayPort suitable for connection to a Mac Mini. However, there are reports of problems with the audio output via the monitor, which may be due to the configuration or the cables used.
Our supplier is currently unable to deliver, therefore our offer is without delivery date.
Due to different suppliers and delivery conditions, there may be price differences compared to other suppliers, especially in international comparison. We always try to offer prices in line with the market, but this is not possible for all products.
Are you trying daisy chaining? In other words, connecting the monitor to another one? Unfortunately, this is only possible with the PA279 CRV, not with the CV.
Try connecting the Macbook directly with the USB-C cable (USB-C on the Macbook to USB-C on the screen) and not via HDMI and still with a Macbook adapter. There are problems here from time to time. Then connect the external HDD or SSD via USB-A to the monitor or (with or without adapter) directly to the Macbook.
Thank you very much for pointing this out. We will be happy to pass this on internally to the responsible department and hope that this will be adjusted promptly.
Hello, in order to use USB devices connected to the monitor under Windows, the monitor must be connected to the PC via USB-C (in your case in addition to the DisplayPort connection). If your PC does not have a USB-C port, you will need an adapter or a USB-C to USB-A cable (this is how I connected it to my PC).
Thank you for pointing this out. We will be happy to pass this on internally to the responsible department and hope that this will be corrected promptly.
We have not found any information online with a similar problem. If you are still experiencing a problem with this monitor, we advise you to register a warranty claim:

I connected my M2 via HDMI and it runs perfectly. This model also has a Displayport or, as already mentioned, USB-C.
The PA27AC model is said to have scaling problems on MacOS, which the PA279CRV does not have.
In my case there are no screw holes on the back, possibly covered by the plastic.

Yes, this monitor is very suitable as a screen extension for a MacBook. It offers a USB-C port with 90 W Power Delivery, which you can use to transfer images, sound, data and charge your MacBook at the same time. DisplayPort and HDMI are also available if you want to use other connection options. The colour accuracy (Delta E < 2) and broad coverage of the DCI-P3 and sRGB colour space make it particularly attractive for creative work. The integrated speakers and USB hub increase convenience in everyday life.
I can't get the USB hub to work. Does anyone have any ideas?
I actually have a relatively simple scenario, 1 PC via DP to the monitor, 1 laptop via HDMI or USB-C to the monitor.
Switching works. Now I wanted to connect the mouse and keyboard to the monitor, but neither is recognised. Only when I have the laptop connected to the monitor via USB-C do the mouse and keyboard work, but unfortunately only on the laptop, not on the PC. When the laptop is connected via HDMI, nothing works. What I'm unsure about is whether a USB connection to the monitor is required in addition to the DP or HDMI cable for this to work at all?
(but that would be kind of pointless, then I've almost used up the USB ports)
Unfortunately, the ASUS manual is non-existent and the online manual only lists the connections, but does not show which connections need to be made.
Thank you.
I was able to do some research and according to the user manual, you would also have to connect a USB cable via the upstream port. HDMI and DP do not forward this data in this case, so an image/audio/data connection is not possible via HDMI or DP only. This is basically the case with most monitors (all the ones I know), so that in addition to HDMI or DP you would have to connect an additional USB cable for the data connection of the USB hub. According to the manual:

I used to connect the screen to my Macbook air with a usb-c cable without any problem, and then, one time after another, without changing anything, the screen says "USB-C no signal" and I haven't been able to use the screen since... Is there a setting that could have been reset? Or is it possible that the usb-c port on the screen is already dead? (The one on my computer works fine, and I've plugged an iPad via hdmi (with a lightning-hdmi adapter) into the screen and that works too. Unfortunately I don't have a usb-c - hdmi adapter to test directly with the computer...
As with other monitors that are connected via USB-C, various problems can occur. (The internet is full of them) Asus itself therefore says that this monitor is best connected to a Mac via Displayport.
I myself am not entirely enthusiastic about this solution, as the various USB ports of the monitor then no longer work at all.
I had the same problem, but have now connected the monitor via Displayport and calibrated it with a SpiderX. The settings are retained as they are saved on the computer. I'm not familiar with the settings provided on the monitor itself, but serious calibration is still best done with external hardware.
Oh, and also digitec itself indicates that there are two video ports (including displayport) and one data port (the usb-c).
Hello, I bought this screen and I have a big problem with it. It's as if the image was curved forward, a sort of fish-eye effect. The screen is not bent at all and I have the same result with any OS. The problem is that it's impossible to work with it (for coding or even just writing text, because it looks like the text is curved). And I've had the experience of asking members of my family what was wrong with the screen and they all saw that the image was curved. Can anyone help me, because a problem like this with a screen of this price is very strange.
