ASUS Teases 4K 240 Hz ROG Gaming Monitor with 1080p 480 Hz Mode
Just like LG and HP, ASUS is gearing up to launch a dual mode 4K 240 Hz / 1080p 480 Hz OLED monitor and the company has released a little teaser ahead of the official CES 2024 reveal of the monitor. The display will unsurprisingly fall under ASUS' ROG brand and will be known as the ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDP and spec wise it appears to use the same OLED panel as LG's 32GS95UE and possibly HP's Omen Transcend, since all three monitors should feature the dual mode option of 4K 240 Hz or 1080p 480 Hz. ASUS claims that the PG32UCDP is "the world's first dual-mode gaming monitor" which we've already seen isn't the case, but it's still the matter of who will be first to offer their displays in the retail market.
Interestingly, ASUS announced the similar ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDM at Gamescom 2023, which was said to offer a QD-OLED display with a 4K resolution and a 240 Hz refresh rate. The PG32UCDM appears to lack the 1080p 480 Hz mode though, but with only one letter difference in the model name, potential buyers are going to have to pay close attention so they don't end up with the wrong display. We're going to have to wait for a release and review of the displays before we'll know which one is the better of the two ASUS models.

but at least asus is not doing the whole stupid sound vibration radiating thru the screen thing.....
I bet nobody needs it but everyone wants it !
a Microboard Curved 32 inch M320CLZ 144hz 1080p has been my main display for years now.
I currently run a wall-mounted 55" 60hz 1080p as secondary. <1m for main, ~1m away from secondary.
[knocks on wood] I'll upgrade it when/if it dies. :shadedshu:
make it mini-led, oled pixel structure is bad for windows text.
Point is, it was absolutely fine and im sitting like 50 cm away from it?
I "upgraded" to a Dell 1440p 165hz 32inch monitor and really....yeah not much of a difference to me.
Maybe if I would switch back now but when I first upgraded I barely noticed much of anything regarding clarity.
thats the same with pixel peeping stuff for graphical settings in game, if you have to swipe back and forth, back and forth just to see "oh yeah, I guess the shadow there is a tad more pixelated" then what is the point?
like the higher frame rate stuff, I do notice that, I notice when im at a 60hz display that its not as smooth, just because of what I have gotten used to, how it should move and look but the resolution jump...eh not really that noticeable.
now if I was doing 4k at 32 inch, then im guessing it would be quite obvious
