GIGABYTE Unveils Two QD-OLED Monitors at CES 2025

GIGABYTE, the world's leading computer brand, announced two innovative QD-OLED monitors, marking a new era in display technology. The AORUS FO27Q5P sets a new benchmark with its remarkable 500 Hz refresh rate, the fastest in the QD-OLED segment, alongside DP2.1 UHBR20 bandwidth support. Meanwhile, the GIGABYTE MO27U2 redefines clarity and precision as the unprecedented 27-inch 4K QD-OLED monitor with a 240 Hz refresh rate and ultra-detailed 166 PPI resolution. Both monitors are equipped with GIGABYTE's exclusive OLED Care technology and enhanced Tactical Features, ensuring gamers a superior experience in speed, clarity, and reliability.

The AORUS FO27Q5P revolutionizes competitive gaming with its industry-leading 500 Hz refresh rate, providing unprecedented motion clarity and image sharpness. It surpasses the VESA ClearMR (CMR 13000) threshold and is poised to achieve the upcoming ClearMR 21000 standard, showcasing its forward-thinking design. This innovation has earned GIGABYTE an invitation from VESA to advocate for ClearMR 21000, further solidifying its leadership in display technology. Meanwhile, set to be certified with VESA DisplayHDR True Black 500, it delivers precise shadow details and rich, deep blacks. With DP2.1 UHBR20 delivering a massive 80 Gbps bandwidth—2.5 times higher than DP 1.4—the FO27Q5P ensures seamless compatibility with next-gen GPUs, ready for 500 Hz gaming. Tailored for esports professionals and FPS enthusiasts, this monitor is a game-changer in both performance and visual fidelity.
The GIGABYTE MO27U2, featuring 4K resolution and 240 Hz in 27-inch, redefines the 27-inch form factor. Its high 166 PPI ensures clearer visuals, complemented by delta E≤2 color accuracy and Pantone Validated certification, making it ideal for advanced hybrid gamers. Whether engaging in AAA gaming, streaming, working, or light creative tasks, this monitor meets every need with unparalleled performance.

Both models feature GIGABYTE OLED Care, an AI-based panel protection system designed to prevent burn-in and extend display longevity, ensuring a consistent, and vibrant viewing experience. The upgraded Tactical Features further enhance gameplay, with Tactical Switch 2.0 introducing the ability to switch resolutions and adjust to a 4:3 screen ratio for optimized display settings. Night Vision spans the entire screen, assisting FPS players to spot enemies in dimly lit areas more effectively. Meanwhile, Black Equalizer 2.0 continues to provide gamers with enhanced visibility and enriched gameplay precision.

Not quite, the ASUS monitors have the proximity sensors to turn off the screen when away from the monitor, which in turn saves power. Then the 1440p monitor from Gigabyte uses DP 2.1 so it can be used without DSC. While, disappointedly, ASUS' uses DP 1.4a

The DP2.1 might be the deciding factor for those who care, since it is a coin toss whether the DSC implementation induce lag, and these monitors are too expensive to be a coin toss.
But then again, the real deciding factor for most people is that glowing ROG eye.

Those have existed for ages. That's ancient tech. Non-OLED curved 34 inch monitors existed before the OLED ones. The OLED ones came out ~3 years ago. There should be plenty on the used market if you're so inclined. Below are some new ones. This list is by no means exhaustive.

This one uses IPS Black

Thanks man, that's precisely why I'm still waiting for an upgrade on the tech. Oled is ancient tech too if you go this way.

I hope that can still be turned off. It could on my old Asus monitor.

You want an upgrade of what exactly?

OLED is the upgrade to anything with IPS or VA. Other than that you can safely forget much if anything to get innovated further on LCD. Its all there, but in different price segments.
