ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) announced the availability of the 42-inch Swift OLED series gaming monitor. This display features the latest generation OLED panel that offer greater efficiency and brighter visuals, as well as a sub-pixel layout that provides extreme levels of detail and clearly defined text to upgrade the viewing experience.
The 42-inch ROG Swift OLED PG42UQ is designed for immersive desktop gaming and features 4K visuals at an overclocked 138 Hz refresh rate. The OLED panel ensures the deepest blacks, as well as amazing colors thanks to 98% DCI-P3 color gamut and Delta E<2 color difference. Plus, an ultrafast 0.1 ms (GTG) response time ensures great viewing and gaming experiences.
The ROG Swift OLED PG42UQ monitor includes a custom heatsink that offers more surface area for heat exchange, resulting in up to 8% lower operating temperatures to ensure better OLED performance and longevity.
Unlike standard glossy OLED panels, the panels in ROG OLED gaming monitors feature a special anti-glare micro-texture coating to reduce reflections to minimize distractions. There is also the optional uniform brightness setting that maintains the display’s brightness level to ensure comfortable viewing when changing the size of bright white windows or during gaming marathons.
Gaming on an epic scale
These G-SYNC-compatible displays are designed for gamers looking to create the ultimate desktop gaming setup. Both monitors are capable of showcasing up to 4K (3840 x 2160) imagery at an astonishing 138 Hz (overclocked). Additionally, both displays feature a custom heatsink that efficiently cools the OLED panel, even in long gaming stints. The heatsink lowers internal temperatures by up to 8% to enable better OLED performance and prevent image burn-in. This robust fanless cooling system operates silently to minimize distractions, enabling users to focus on their game.
