Meanwhile, the 26.5-inch Strix OLED XG27ACDNG boasts an impressive 360 Hz refresh rate and a QHD QD-OLED panel with an anti-reflection. Both monitors feature ASUS Extreme Low Motion Blur (ELMB) and OLED Anti-Flicker technologies. ROG is the only gaming monitor brand to offer QD-OLED and WOLED offerings to cater to different needs. Each display offers unparalleled visuals and unprecedented refresh rates to redefine gaming performance for gamers worldwide. Also launched was the 360 Hz ROG Swift 360 Hz PG27AQNR, with a QHD Ultrafast IPS display and G-SYNC Pulsar that make it a superior choice for esports and competitive gaming.
In addition to the premium three-year ROG warranty, both OLED monitors feature new OLED Care+ with a suite of features designed to protect the panel. OLED Care+ settings can be easily managed through ASUS DisplayWidget Center software. In addition to all the features provided by the original OLED CARE, the new OLED Care+ enables Taskbar Detection, Outer Dimming Control, and Global Dimming Control. Lastly, adjustable HDR settings provide the flexibility to tailor onscreen visuals according to preference. These new features will soon be available in other ROG gaming monitors.
ROG Swift OLED PG27AQDP
The ROG Swift OLED PG27AQDP is the world's first OLED gaming monitor that offers 1440p visuals at an ultrasmooth 480 Hz. It features a 26.5-inch WOLED panel with an anti-glare coating, 0.03 ms response time, and a new RWGB subpixel layout for clearer text. The Swift OLED PG27AQDP includes AI Assistant, which boasts a suite of features such as AI Visual, AI Crosshair, AI Sniper, AI ShadowBoost, and the MOBA Map Helper to enhance gaming experiences. It retails at MSRP $999.
ROG Strix OLED XG27ACDNG
The ROG Strix OLED XG27ACDNG has a 26.5-inch, 2560 x 1440 QD-OLED panel that features an anti-reflection coating, 360 Hz refresh rate, and 0.03 ms response time. It includes a new heatsink design that allows for effective heat dissipation and thermal management. The compact monitor base frees up desk space and it has a mobile phone slot. Additionally, the Strix OLED XG27ACDNG includes the Dynamic Brightness Boost feature that dials up luminance levels at low APL window sizes, as well as AI Visual that automatically detects what's onscreen and adjusts to provide the best default or user-preset monitor settings. A USB-C port with 90-watt Power Delivery enables versatile connections. The Strix OLED XG27ACDNG will be available on shelves in early Q4, 2024.
ROG Swift 360 Hz PG27AQNR
The ROG Swift 360 Hz PG27AQNR heralds a new wave of LCD gaming monitors and is specifically designed to meet the needs of esports and competitive gamers. The monitor features a 27-inch QHD 360 Hz Ultrafast IPS panel and offers G-SYNC including new Pulsar technology for the ultimate motion clarity together with variable refresh rate (VRR) enabling supersmooth visuals and next-level gameplay. It has built-in DisplayPort 1.4 with DSC, two HDMI 2.1 ports, and a USB port for firmware updates. This exciting new gaming monitor will be available in Q4, 2024.

Basically there's a slow rollout of this new Mediatek all-in-one G-Sync chip from various monitor manufacturers. Assuming it works well, it's likely that the chip will be included in other monitors in other sizes at a later date.LG manufactures display panels as well as some monitors and television sets.
Display performance and quality is not solely determined by the panel. There are other components inside these devices that influence performance just as the display engine chip and other electronics such as the G-Sync circuitry which is separate from the display panel part.
LG does not do final assembly of all monitors and television sets based on their display panel parts. One very obvious example are LG OLED panels for Apple iPhones. LG just ships display panel parts to Apple's manufacturing partners (Foxconn, etc.). There are other components in smartphones that affect display quality as well.
Everyone here knows there are a lot of companies that make monitors with differing capabilities. There is no company that is the best at everything. Certainly not LG. It's worth pointing out that LG frequently features piss-poor warranty durations.
There's a lot more than just display panel specs that influence the desirability of an given monitor or television set. Maybe it's the presence of USB-C power delivery. Maybe it's the support of new HDMI and DisplayPort standards. Maybe it's the presence of built-in speakers. Maybe it's the price. Maybe it's a combination of one or more of these other features.
Just keep that in mind, thanks!
:):p:D
But I agree with you, other features can entice (I was looking for DV but alas :( )
And sorry I’m not reading wall of texts about simple matters as these. :) I skip 90% of your posts.
:lovetpu:
Might have to cop this one.If you use ELMB it will be 240 Hz, which is expected since the 2nd frame would be the black frame.
But yes, the newer GSync modules allow VRR to be used on Radeons, which is cool because GSync allows the full range from 1Hz to whatever the max is for the panel. But I believe ULMB/ULMB2 is still limited to NVIDIA cards.
Both designs need extra hardware for Nvidia only G-Sync. G-Sync - I think it is not compatible to every graphic cards - so it is an useless feature to myself. I think freesync works on more different graphic cards. I think it is bad to buy a product which locks you in to one brand. E.g. Apple only / Nvidia only / Windows only.
If it is e.g. AMD compatible, the manufacturer should be smart enough to market it as "Freesync". If I do not see Freesync in the datasheet I assume the device can not function properly. I'm not willing to be a beta tester for an overpriced product.
It all depends on the resolution the display is paired with and the users own eyesight. Those with better eyesight wish 24" or 27" 4K while those with average or below eyesight are perfectly fine with 27" 1440p. I can run this at 100% with no need for scaling. 27" 4K i would need to enable scaling and even 32" 4K is still too small at 100%. Im glad they're pushing 27" 1440p refresh rates up. Now we need pure RGB pixel layout and DP 2.1 UHBR20 start being included. 1440p 480Hz barely fits inside DSC 3.0 compression limit.There will be 360Hz 32" 4K panels next year but i very much doubt there will be 27" 4K panels.
