Frequently asked questions
What resolution does the ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG27AQDM run at?
The panel shows 2560x1440 pixels across 27 inches, around 109 pixels per inch. That is QHD, the usual compromise between image detail and the load put on the graphics card. The OLED panel delivers perfect blacks, with the usual caveat about burn in on static interfaces.
Is the ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG27AQDM a good monitor for gaming?
Yes. The panel runs at 240 Hz, the level competitive players aim for, and motion gains a lot of smoothness. At 2560x1440 you still need a graphics card able to keep up with that pace. The 27 inches at 2560x1440 also weigh on the frame rate the graphics card can hold.
What features does the ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG27AQDM include?
No, there is no USB-C port on this model, so the connection goes through the usual video inputs. Beyond that it offers HDR and a height adjustable stand, but goes without built in speakers and a curved panel. The adjustable stand saves you from adding a riser to line the panel up with your eyes.
Is the ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG27AQDM worth 160 euros?
At 160 euros it scores 4.8/5 across 1,200 Amazon reviews. That is one of the best scores in the category. We gave it our Premium OLED gaming label in the selection. Main strength: OLED panel with perfect blacks. Main compromise: very high price.
