Asus Unveils World’s First 4K 240Hz Monitor at Gamescom 2023
Aug. 23, 2023Asus ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDM: Specs and Features
The new ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDM is the first of its kind. Being capable of outputting 4K resolutionwith a super smooth240Hz refresh rateis the perfect combination for a gaming monitor. Whether you’re an avid e-sports gamer who prefers a high refresh rate or someone who enjoys single-player experiences at a crystal clear resolution, this monitor is appealing to use in both these use cases.
It is claimed to be theworld’s first 32-inch 4K 240Hz OLED display. Given that it has a Quantum Dot OLED panel, it definitely takes the cake when compared to other OLED monitors. A graphene film is present behind the monitor’s panel, along with a custom passive heatsink that keeps the internals cool without a fan. By implementing it, Asus is able to keep the monitor thin and let the panel go up to 1000 nits of peak brightness.
By the way, while the peak brightness numbers are impressive, it is using WOLED (White OLED) technology instead of QD-OLED (Quantum Dot OLED). This kind of panel can emit additional white light to increase the peak brightness numbers. That’s how it is able to reach 1300 nits. It works well but doesn’t compare to the level of clarity offered by Quantum Dot. In terms of connectivity, it has DisplayPort 1.2 support along with HDMI 2.1. It also has USB Type-C PD Charging, supporting theROG Allyhandheld console as well.
There’s no word on the pricing of the ROG Swift PG32UCDM and the PG34WCDM as of now. Although, the ROG Swift PG32UCDM will definitely be expensive when it launches in the market. We estimate the price to be either above or in the ballpark of $1000.
