ASUS Announces Availability of ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDP Gaming Monitor
ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) today announced availability of the ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDP gaming monitor. It boasts a 32-inch 4K WOLED anti-reflective panel that delivers HD and UHD visuals with impressive motion clarity and desktop fluidity due to its ultra high dual mode refresh rate and low pixel response. The PG32UCDP enables users to switch from 4K @ 240 Hz to FHD @ 480 Hz depending on the game you are playing as well as the importance of motion clarity. Aspect ratio control customization allows for further resolution and refresh customization.
Third-generation ROG OLED and Micro Lens Array Plus (MLA+) technologies enable the PG32UCDP to showcase 15% brighter images compared to other monitors in its class. The PG32UCDP delivers vibrant colors and contrast is outstanding alongside impressive peak HDR performance for video and gaming content. A 0.03 ms gray-to-gray (GTG) response time ensures next level motion clarity whether in SDR or HDR. Inside, an advanced custom passive heatsink offers exceptional cooling, no noise and long-term reliability and aids in reduction of burn-in.This premium monitor is designed for gamers who demand the best, offering a clear upgrade from 27" 1440p LCD and OLED gaming monitors. The combination of size, image quality, and refresh-rate offer the most demanding display and PC gaming enthusiast a next level monitor upgrade. The PG32UCDP also includes user-friendly features such as OLED Anti-flicker, Windows based OSD control, Extreme Low Motion Blur (ELMB) / BFI technologies, Auto KVM, USB-C with 90 W Power Delivery, four way ergonomic adjustment and a threaded mount for easy mounting of streaming accessories like cameras, lights or microphones.
Key Features
A dual-mode feature enables PG32UCDP to switch between 4K @ 240 Hz or FHD @ 480 Hz visuals on the fly via a hotkey, allowing users to benefit from superior motion clarity and responsiveness especially with competitive FPS games. Alternatively, gamers can revel and immerse themselves in the latest AAA titles and enjoy superior fidelity in game rendering. With high level HDR luminance performance gamers can engage a truly more immersive and dynamic gaming experience.
The use of the latest WOLED technology ensures outstanding motion clarity with significantly reduced motion blur and improved sharpness and overall motion clarity in fast paced gaming sessions. The 0.03 ms GTG response time nearly eliminates ghosting and does not experience overshoot or undershoot issues. PC Gamers looking to experience HDR will also appreciate the same pixel response performance whether in SDR or HDR operation. AMD FreeSync Premium Pro technology and NVIDIA G-SYNC compatibility ensure supersmooth, tear-free visuals with low latency. The ROG SWIFT PG32UCDP also continues to offer ASUS GameFast ultra-low display lag design ensuring minimal and optimal display chain experience for gamers. The PG32UCDP also features ELMB or Black Frame Insertion at 120 Hz. This allows for more flexibility in maximizing motion clarity depending on your system's performance level allowing you to match 240 Hz motion clarity at 120 Hz for more demanding titles.
The OLED advantage
The latest ROG OLED technology ensures that gamers are treated to the darkest black hues, outstanding contrast. Third-generation OLED technology in the PG32UCDP features a new sub pixel layout which improves text rendering, notably improving general desktop. A selectable OSD feature; Clear Pixel Edge can also yield further improvements to text rendering. Additionally, ROG-exclusive OLED Anti-flicker technology helps reduce flicker during frame-rate fluctuations for smoother gameplay, and the optional uniform brightness feature keeps luminance levels consistent for more comfortable viewing. VESA DisplayHDR 400 True Black compliance ensures the deepest black hues and dazzling colors, while the 99% DCI-P3 gamut and true 10-bit color deliver impressive color reproduction.
Unmatched Connectivity, Flexibility & Convenience
The PG32UCDP is able to display imagery of varying aspect ratios, allowing gamers to choose between 24.5-inch (esports mode) to 27-inch imagery. The ASUS Display Widget Center has an intuitive interface that allows users to access OLED Care functions and adjust monitors settings within a Windows based application. There's also a hotkey to activate the Auto KVM function which automatically detects a second input source, allowing users to switch and control both input devices through a single keyboard and mouse. It also features PbP and PiP modes with adjustable window sizes/locations to allow for improved flexibility and enhanced productivity with two device setups whether they be a secondary PC, laptop, console or mobile device.
For compatibility with a wide range of multimedia devices, the PG32UCDP features extensive connectivity including DisplayPort 1.4 with DSC, HDMI 2.1, USB-C with 90 W Power Delivery, USB 3.2 hub, SPDIF optical output, a headphone jack. And a tripod mount at the top of the monitor.
ASUS Gaming Monitor Ai Assistant & Display Widget Center
The PG32UCDP also features AI Assistant, a suite of intelligent features designed to enhance gaming experiences with AI Visual, AI Crosshair, AI Sniper, AI Shadow Boost, and the MOBA Map Helper.
AI Visual automatically detects what's onscreen and adjusts to provide the best default or user-preset monitor settings. AI Crosshair switches the crosshair to a color that contrasts with the background so it stands out for easier aiming. AI Sniper zooms in the center of the in-game target for better aim during practice sessions. AI Shadow Boost enhances dark areas of the scene to make it easier to spot enemies hiding in dim areas of the map. Meanwhile, the MOBA Map Helper provides MOBA gamers with notification reminders to keep a lookout whenever a group battle is detected.
For users who also want to leverage extensive OSD functionality but quicker and easier, the PG32UCDP supports Display Widget Center a robust Windows based application that offers an array of tuning parameters and many additional features that can be beneficial for gaming, productivity or general use.

I'm impressed they're giving a 3 year warranty over LG's native offering with 2 years.
IMO you'd be insane to buy OLED currently unless you just 95% game.
Right.......if it is so unmatched then why is it using DP 1.4?
Samsung have RGB but it's triangular layout, but its 2nd gen is decent enough for text.
Moral of the story: Stop waiting for your perfect monitor. Go out and pick one that scratches all your itches now.
From what I have seen, every OLED "Gaming monitor" gets burn-in in use after 3-6 months, but if you ONLY game on it, and are careful with HUD settings, maybe it will last a year or so before it degrades...
My personal opinion is that OLED sucks for computer use but is the best option for picture quality right now, especially HDR. LCD is a joke, and crazy that you can still drop $1000 on one of these dogpiles. MAYBE I'd accept a good quality FALD miniLED monitor as a compromise until OLED on the PC gets brighter and more durable without the god-awful dimming as you move stuff around on your desktop.

I can understand penny pinching on a budget product, on a premium product its inexcusable.
