Still not back to proper stands. :(

didn't reveal pricing, lol, nothing happened today

*Phewww*.... Until this launch, I was seriously concerned there weren't enough 27" monitor options available, but now I can rest assured.

Just received my 27" 1440p flat VA 240hz this morning, i will wait next OLED panels or CES 2024

btarunrNVIDIA G-SYNC (compatible), along with VESA Adaptive Sync

A way to refer to FreeSync premium certified monitor...

Manufacturer site calls it out twice:
rog.asus.com/uk/monitors/27-to-31-5-inches/rog-swift-oled-pg27aqdm/spec/

Why was "AMD", let alone "FreeSync Premium" skipped in the OP?

WQHD (2560 x 1440 pixels) resolution

240 Hz refresh rate

Display inputs include a DisplayPort 1.4, and two HDMI 2.0

2560x1440x240x24b (SDR) requires about 21.3 Gbit/s, more than HDMI 2.0 14.4 Gbit/s usable bandwidth.
2560x1440x240x30b (HDR) requires about 26.5 Gbit/s, more than DP 1.4 25.9 Gbit/s usable bandwidth.
They apparently assume that either DSC is always used, or DP is used in SDR only... or 240 Hz refresh rate is not used?

Garrusdidn't reveal pricing, lol, nothing happened today

It's an ASUS product, so just add double the MSRP and your good.

OLED's go for around $1000

Legacy-ZAOLED's go for around $1000

Asus has full blown notebooks (not some "chrome" bazinga) that go for less than that. 14 and 15 inch.

Who said prices have to make sense anymore?

That's why I won't buy them. Spend all that cash for DP 1.4 and forced DSC. Why though? Did they really save money?

Because PC players and also others users wait 27" OLED since they're born, and they are sure to sell the full stock in three days

Does anyone actually like the gaudy "gamer" aesthetic?

I guess why they didnt reveal the price LUL!

For anyone wondering about pricing its $1000. Few people have bought them from microcenter on reddit already

HairyLobstersDoes anyone actually like the gaudy "gamer" aesthetic?

No, it's as bad as the cliche trope which is the red and black color scheme

For a $1k monitor I agree with chrcoluk that monitor "stand" has to go.

On another point sometimes I run memtest86 for 24 hrs. from the Ultimate BootCD and that requires the monitor be left on for that entire period (if I turn off my Asus PG279q or switch inputs the screen goes blank and I can't see the results of memtest86), would leaving memtest running for 24 hrs. with the monitor on cause any negative effects for an OLED (e.g. burn out the matrix prematurely or cause permanent burn-in)?

It's not good at all, use another screen to do such things

I'm just saying, clearly nothing has launched or they'd have pricing. It's an abuse of the word "launch", let's call it "Asus launches another marketing campaign for the Asus OLED monitor" instead.

I've found that Asus is the worst when it comes to the gaudy gamer "aesthetic". Just look at their recent motherboards -- covered in stupid and meaningless "gamer" text and that obnoxious eye logo. They pretty much wrote the book on the gaudy gamer aesthetic. I've found other companies to not be nearly as bad.

(Gigabyte AORUS did, however, at one point (first gen Ryzen) have mobos that lit up like a Christmas tree, wherein even the RAM and PCIe slots were RGB lit. But aside from that, they weren't covered in cringy "gamer" text)

AnarchoPrimitivNo, it's as bad as the cliche trope which is the red and black color scheme

Or the all white build = clean or female gamers only like pink (peripherals).

The day idiots stop paying overpriced products is the day those manufactures will stop charging an arm and a leg for anything. This is not even a 4k monitor and they charging an arm and a leg, bloodsuckers.

HDMI 2.0 on this one is a no go. This makes the LG 27GR95QE better since it has HDMI 2.1 ports and supports 4K120 input for console users.

I thing again about OLED's, i didn't wanna anymore but ican't have an IPS and MiniLed are even more expensive, could there be other new 27" 1440p 120hz+ OLED this year ?

Asucks it seems. No HDMI 2.1, no DP 2.0, terrible stand, high price.

Could have been a winner, but greed is just too much.

HDMI 2.0 on a 2023 $1K (possibly more) monitor with also no USB C Support? HDMI 2.1 was released in 2017 and monitors with type c ports can drive this resolution at this refresh rate (MAG274QRX for example). I like ASUS but I think it's better to wait for these types of monitors to mature and get reasonably priced than to be an early adopter for OLED tech designed for "gamers" just because these companies want to hop on early. Sorry if my points seem weird I'm using a Legion 7i 2022 laptop as my main producing and gaming laptop so outright displayports aren't an option (unless I use adapters).

CheeseballHDMI 2.0 on this one is a no go. This makes the LG 27GR95QE better since it has HDMI 2.1 ports and supports 4K120 input for console users.

Yeah I guess this monitor was more directed for PC users. OLED Monitors at 4K 120hz+ for someone on Console with full HDMI 2.1 support would be amazing.

Yeah that's the thing, sometimes the people who want to work with these type of setups would want something that's a little bit more "low-key".

As cool as they look sometimes, a good amount of the people using this (Unless they got rich parents) aren't looking for 4090's and high contrast, high resolution monitors to be looking like a "toy" with little cool light up logo projectors on the stand and RGB rings like some kind of Beyblade.

Something that seems a little bit more understated would be better, I guess it's a preference and taste thing but that's why I personally like the founder's edition cards as they are a bit more better looking.

PerfectWaveI guess why they didnt reveal the price LUL!

definitely $1,000 or more as LG's current 27GR95QE-B which uses the same panel costs that.

G-Sync "compatible"? So does it have the Nvidia module (hardware) or is it just software based?!

So many people have no idea about the difference between G-Sync & G-Sync compatible monitors! I bought my son a $1,480 (including shipping & tax) 3080-12GB gpu! Of course I want a monitor that has the hardware in it for G-Sync! I actually wish this was G-Sync Ultimate!
