High Dynamic Range and Quantum Dot Technologies

ASUS ROG High Dynamic Range (HDR) monitors offer a wider color spectrum than traditional monitors, with a luminance range that comes closer to what the human eye is capable of perceiving. The ROG Swift PG27UQ gaming monitor features G-SYNC® HDR technology for a 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. Quantum-dot technology also provides brighter imagery, supporting the cinema-standard DCI-P3 color gamut. DCI-P3 enables a 25% wider color range than sRGB, resulting in more realistic color reproduction.

NVIDIA G-SYNC

ROG Swift gaming monitors feature NVIDIA® G-SYNC™ display technology for the smoothest and fastest gaming imaginable, eliminating screen tearing and minimizing display stutter and input lag! Enjoy the latest first-person shooters, sports and action-adventure games at super-fast frame rates, even at “Ultra” graphics settings!
