How to Turn Up the Volume on an Asus Gaming Monitor
If you own an Asus TUF Gaming monitor, the process of turning up the volume is unnecessarily complex. Press the round black button on the back of the monitor twice. This will bring up the settings menu. Navigate to System Setup, scroll down and choose Sound using the same black button (it can move around like a joystick).
Move the black button right to bring up the Volume. Move the black circle button up or down to control the volume. Increase the volume to 100.
Note: You need to confirm to continue when a warning about “OSD changes consuming more power”. After confirming, it becomes possible to change the sound level.
Move the circle button left to exit the menu.
