ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) has set a new benchmark for gaming monitors with the ROG Swift OLED PG27UCDM. As the world’s first 27-inch 4K OLED monitor, it offers state-of-the-art technologies for an exceptional gaming experience.

High-resolution 4K OLED display with high pixel density

The highlight of the monitor is the 4K OLED panel with a resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels. With a pixel density of 166 ppi, the display ensures razor-sharp images and clear text displays. Thanks to the fourth-generation ROG QD-OLED technology, colors are displayed more vividly and contrast is improved, which ensures impressive details, especially in dark gaming scenes.

Another highlight is the support for VESA DisplayHDR 400 True Black, Dolby Vision® and HDR10. These technologies enable a more realistic color display with deeper blacks and higher brightness for an immersive gaming experience.

Extremely fast refresh rate and low response time

The ROG Swift OLED PG27UCDM impresses with an extremely fast refresh rate of 240 Hz. This ensures a particularly smooth display, which is particularly advantageous in fast FPS or racing games.

It also has an impressively low response time of just 0.03 ms. This minimizes ghosting effects and motion blur, enabling a precise gaming experience. Competitive gamers in particular benefit from this ultra-fast response time.

Advanced OLED protection technologies

One of the biggest challenges of OLED displays is the risk of burn-in. ASUS addresses this problem with the new ROG OLED Care Pro technology, which includes a range of protective measures.

One special feature is the Neo Proximity Sensor. This detects the user’s distance from the monitor and automatically switches the display to a black image when the user moves away. This extends the life of the OLED panel and minimizes burn-in.

In addition, the monitor offers functions such as pixel cleaning, screen saver and taskbar recognition, which are designed to preserve image quality in the long term. ASUS also offers a three-year warranty on the OLED panel.

ROG OLED Anti-Flicker 2.0: Flicker-free gaming

To provide the most comfortable viewing experience possible, the ROG Swift OLED PG27UCDM is equipped with ROG OLED Anti-Flicker 2.0 technology. This uses an advanced luminance compensation algorithm to reduce screen flicker.

This technology dynamically adjusts the pixel brightness, which ensures a smoother display, especially with changing refresh rates. Compared to the previous generation, flickering has been reduced by up to 20%.

Users can also use the Refresh Rate Cap function to limit the refresh rate to further optimize the viewing experience. Three preset ranges are available here so that individual preferences can be taken into account.

Extensive connection options and convenience features

The ROG Swift OLED PG27UCDM offers a wide range of connections to ensure maximum compatibility with different systems:

  • DisplayPort 2.1a UHBR20 with a bandwidth of up to 80 Gbps for uncompressed image quality
  • HDMI 2.1 for consoles and other end devices
  • USB-C with 90 watt power supply, ideal for laptops and mobile devices

The monitor also features the ROG DisplayWidget Center, which allows users to easily adjust monitor settings and access OLED Care Pro features.

Price and availability

The ROG Swift OLED PG27UCDM is now available in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The recommended retail price is 1,499.90 euros. The monitor can be ordered from specialist retailers and online retailers as well as from the ASUS webshop.
