Asus ain’t playing.
Apart from a wonderfully curvaceous 30th anniversary RTX 5090, the product that I saw get probably the most attention at Asus ROG’s event earlier was the ROG Swift OLED PG27AQWP-W. Asus is calling this the «fastest OLED monitor in the market», and for good reason.
We’ve seen plenty of fast monitors over the past few months, but I’ve not seen anything come close to this for OLED. It’s 540 Hz at 1440p QHD, but if that’s not quite enough for your lightning-quick eyes, you can drop it down to 720p to crank out 720 Hz. That’s one Hz per vertical pixel, as long as you don’t mind dropping down to sub-1080p.
Even considering ‘just’ the 540 Hz, what strikes me is that we’re getting an ultra-fast refresh rate with very little compromise.
