How to install Asus ProArt PA328CGV

• Unbox and place the PA328CGV on a sturdy surface that can support its weight during setup. Inspect the stand and mounting hardware to ensure nothing is loose before installation.
• Attach the ergonomic stand to the back of the monitor following the included instructions, then secure the C-clamp or mount to your desk if you are not using the VESA option. Ensure the desk edge is stable and that any mount is tightened to prevent wobble during usage.
• Connect video cables first. If you plan to use USB-C for video, data, and power, plug the USB-C cable into your workstation or laptop and the monitor’s USB-C port. If you’re using DisplayPort or HDMI, connect accordingly. Verify that you’re using the correct input source on the monitor’s OSD (on-screen display) menu.
• Power up the monitor and your computer. Access the OSD to set a baseline picture profile, adjust brightness and contrast, and configure color temperature. If you require professional-grade color accuracy, enable the Calman Verified workflow or use your preferred calibration tool to lock in a target color space.
• Calibrate and optimize. For creators, run a calibration session to confirm coverage of 95% DCI-P3 and 100% sRGB/Rec.709, then adjust gamma, white point, and luminance to fit your environment. For gamers, confirm FreeSync Premium Pro is enabled and set any gaming-specific picture mode that preserves color fidelity while maximizing contrast and motion clarity.
• Finalize cable management and test. Arrange cables so they do not pull on the monitor or the port, then test by running your typical tasks—high-refresh gaming, heavy color grading, or multimedia editing—to verify stability and refresh performance in real-world usage.
