Are you uninterested in seeing the identical 27-inch, $1,000 OLED panel being trotted round by half a dozen completely different manufacturers? Most likely not since you’re not a know-how information author who has to pore over almost equivalent specification lists to search out something barely completely different, however I digress. Asus has three new OLED screens for players to drool over, and none of them are 27 inches. They’re all fairly a bit greater…and doubtless much more costly. They have been introduced on the Gamescom occasion in Germany.

First up is the ROG Swift PG32UCDM, a 32-inch 4K monitor. It’s maybe essentially the most standard design of the bunch — it’s comparatively giant by monitor requirements, however sticks to the standard 16:9 side ratio. 240Hz and .03 millisecond response time give it some critical gaming chops, however there’s loads of new tech particular to that vibrant QD-OLED panel. At 1,000 nits, it’s significantly brighter than some alternate options and a customized warmth sink and graphene layer defend it from warmth and reduces the chance of burn-in. The USB Kind-C port consists of energy supply and an built-in KVM change. Asus plans to get this one on the shelf within the first quarter of 2024, no value introduced as of but.

Those that like their widescreens a little bit extra extremely will wish to take a look at the ROG Swift PG34WCDM, a 34-inch, 3440×1440 model of the design with an 800R curve ranking. This wider monitor will get official Nvidia G-sync compatibility, a good brighter 1,300 nit ranking, and 90 watts of USB-C energy supply. It’s a more in-depth competitor to Alienware’s fashionable 34-inch OLEDs, however with sooner refresh and extra connection choices, it would simply pull forward. Once more, it’s scheduled for a Q1 launch with no value enumerated.
The massive daddy of the brand new ROG line is the Swift PG49WCD (up within the header picture), an enormous 49-inch OLED panel that stretches the decision to 5120×1440. So in dimension and res, it’s mainly two 24-inch 1440p panels aspect by aspect. It has a much less dramatic 1800R curve ranking, a slower 144Hz panel with no point out of G-sync, and the brightness steps again down to simply 1,000 nits, however the remainder of the options are preserved. This one’s coming lots sooner in October, for a value of $1,499. That’s lots, even for a monitor of this dimension, however for a big OLED it’s surprisingly inexpensive. Examine it to the Samsung G95SC, which has a sooner refresh charge however prices $1,800 retail.
It’s nice to see OLED screens spreading out into extra kind components, and with the most important of the panels being cheaper than the competitors, perhaps we’ll see some choices at lower cost factors, too. Within the meantime, take a look at PCWorld’s roundup of the perfect gaming screens.
