ROG Swift OLED PG27AQDM - The endgame 1440p OLED gaming monitor
This 27-inch WQHD (2560 x 1440) OLED gaming monitor features an anti-glare micro-texture coating, 0.03 ms response time, and 240 Hz refresh rate to deliver superfast frame rates for truly immersive gaming. To ensure OLED longevity, the Swift OLED PG27AQDM includes a custom heatsink for heat-generating components and a new internal layout to improve cooling. Internal airflow has been optimized, and the top air vents are larger for better heat dissipation. With heat being dissipated more evenly across the rear of the monitor, the average temperature is 5% lower compared to other 27-inch gaming monitors.Intelligent voltage optimization ensures consistent luminance for each pixel by controlling the amount of voltage applied to it. ROG worked closely with the panel maker to determine the correlation between OLED brightness, voltage level, and operational temperature. A smart algorithm coded for the panel optimizes voltage based on temperature changes to ensure consistent brightness across the panel.
A uniform brightness feature keeps the brightness level consistent even when changing the size of bright white windows. Additionally, the new DisplayWidget Center software lets users tinker with OLED-related functions and system settings via an intuitive interface, without having to fiddle with the OSD.

23 Comments on ASUS and ROG Unveil Innovative Monitors at CES 2023
Amazon.com: Dell UP3218K Ultra sharp 32" 8K Monitor, Silver/Black : Electronics
Too expensive for my tastes right now, and I'm only 3 months into an Odyssey G7 purchase, but by the time I'm feeling the itch to upgrade there should be a nice selection of 1440p OLED to choose from.
For a comparison, there are phones with over 800 PPI !
1440p on a 27" display seems about as crisp as I'd want it to be, beyond that we're just wasting pixels that Apple would call "beyond retina". That's 109ppi and 4K at 109ppi is a 40" display, which means the smallest I'd want an 8K desktop monitor to be is 80", far too large to actually be a desktop monitor.
Apple have done some very very dumb things but they understand pixel density better than just about anyone else in the industry. They haven't gone 8K yet, and even their 32" Pro XDR is only 6K, with the intention of that really being a perfect pixel-doubling of the ideal 3K screen resolution to hit "retina" pixel density at that size. ...which you use at an effective 400% scaling and still hold just 12" from your face.
At 200% scaling and 24" from your face, you don't need more than 200ppi, and even that is wasteful unless you staggeringly good eyesight that puts you into the top 0.1% of human capability.
I don't know what the other guy is smoking with the 8k argument, but there's definitely a benefit going above the regular ~100 ppi of the common pairings 1080p-23'' 1440p-27'' 2160p-32'', text get's crisper and easier to read for example but of course only to a point which Apple settled on as 220ppi.
In regards to the 4k 32'' you found unconfortable, was that perhaps also to do with it just being way too big a display? I doubt a lot people who ask for 32'' realize how big such a display is.
Like what on earth can they offer that makes you want/need a new phone? very very little so they just say stuff like "8k on your phone, get it now" even though its nonsense.
As was said, in order to see a difference between 4k and 8k you need a MUCH larger screensize, you otherwise just cant see the difference, and at a screensize that large...you have to sit further away, making it once again useless to go for that res because at that distance you cant see the difference anymore.
OLED would be sweet but will be insanely priced so the local mini-led version would be next best, not that it will be cheap. If it's under $2K will be tempting. Really stupid. Needs 400% scaling to be readable.

Everyone is praising it.
Why do you even care to post gibberish for something that you haven't even seen? Probably a stupid troll with a 768p notebook !
Dell’s creator monitors are always great, as are Sony’s and ASUS and so on. Doesn’t mean consumers have any use for them unless they really care about color accuracy or are professionals themselves.
Also, you’re lying... Following your link leads to a 3 star average and complaints about burn-in. You probably should’ve linked to an actual review to make your argument.
I think 8k is dumb for the same reason I thought 4K was dumb. I’d rather see development and broad adaptation of OLED tech rather than milking inferior LCD tech by using pixels and refresh rates as selling points.
2) You arent shoving 32" monitors close to your face as you do with phone screens??
3) PPI isnt the be and all end all metric, you should instead use PPD (qasimk.io/screen-ppd/) which takes into account your viewing distance. For example those earlier mentioned phones have 65-70 PPD at 20cm viewing distance. The 8k monitor, that you shaid should be the norm, has almost 200 PPD at 1meter viewing distance, and even a regular 4K 32" has around 100PPD at 1m which is still a lot more than any of those phones. Hopefully this puts into perspective how clueless your comparisons sound and how silly your "norms" are
Windows in particular is dumb because 200% scaling looks like ass, Microsoft fail to scale everything so whilst the text is nice and crisp at >100% scale factors, they fail to apply it to other elements in the UI like line widths, text boldness factor, drop shadow areas/offsets etc.
Put simply, Windows scaling is still so broken that I mentally have to think of ppi=dpi, which sucks.
