The 27-inch G-SYNC™ HDR gaming monitor is the very first to offer stunning 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) gaming visuals at an overclockable 144Hz refresh rate for the ultimate gaming experience. PG27UQ is the first gaming monitor with DisplayHDR 1000 certification, the top standard for HDR quality, ensuring it delivers superior HDR visuals. Quantum-dot technology gives PG27UQ a professional-grade 97% DCI-P3 and 99% Adobe RGB color gamut for more realistic colors and smooth color gradations, and every PG27UQ is factory pre-calibrated with a color accuracy ∆E value below 3.0. The new customizable lighting features – ROG Light Signal and Light Signature projection kit – provide the ideal gaming atmosphere. In addition, its built-in light sensor automatically adjusts brightness to help prevent eyestrain.
4K UHD with a 144Hz refresh rate and NVIDIA G-SYNC
ROG Swift PG27UQ is the very first monitor to run 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) content at an overclockable 144Hz refresh rate to provide gamers with detailed ultra-high definition visuals at extremely supersmooth frame-rates. Gamers are treated to unmatched levels of detail, with sharp images and crisp text. Additionally, PG27UQ features NVIDIA® G-SYNC™ display technology for silky-smooth gameplay with no frustrating lag or screen tearing, so gamers get the upper hand in first-person shooters, racing, real-time strategy and sports titles.
High Dynamic Range and Quantum Dot technologies
NVIDIA® G-SYNC High Dynamic Range (HDR) monitors provide a range of luminance that’s closer to what the human eye can experience, and offer a wider color range than traditional monitors. G-SYNC HDR monitors take this performance to a whole new level, with a 1000cd/m2 peak brightness that’s several times greater than standard displays. Its LED backlight is dynamically controlled across 384 zones, providing very high contrast for richer, more natural-looking dark scenes. Furthermore, gamers can plug in their HDR-capable consoles or streaming devices and enjoy highly detailed 4K HDR content on ROG Swift PG27UQ.
PG27UQ is the first and only gaming monitor with DisplayHDR 1000 certification, the display industry’s fully open standard specifying HDR quality, including luminance, color gamut, bit depth and rise time that targets not only gaming monitors, but also displays for professionals, enthusiasts and content creators.
Featuring an IPS display with quantum-dot technology, PG27UQ provides brighter images and supports professional-grade 97% DCI-P3 / 99% Adobe RGB color gamut. DCI-P3 has a 25%-wider color range than sRGB, resulting in more realistic colors and a wide viewing angle.
Show your gaming pride
With exclusive ASUS Aura Sync lighting technology, ROG Swift PG27UQ provides ambient lighting that can be synchronized with a growing RGB ecosystem of Aura Sync-enabled components and peripherals. A built-in ROG Light Signal on the top of its stand lets gamers show their gaming spirit by casting the ROG logo onto the wall, and the Light Signature projection kit allows for the creation and customization of lighting effects that can be projected from PG27UQ onto a desktop surface.
