Gaming Monitor Innovations
The ROG Strix XG32UCG is a 31.5-inch gaming monitor equipped with a 4K panel that features dual-mode technology. This means that users have the option to switch the display between 1080p at an impressive 360 Hz for fast-paced e-sports, and 4K at 160 Hz for games that offer stunning visuals, thus providing the ultimate experience. Additionally, the monitor includes 'AI enhancements' such as Dynamic Crosshair and Dynamic Shadow Boost.
As anticipated from a premium gaming display, this monitor supports both G-SYNC and FreeSync Premium, along with various connectivity options including HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4, and a USB-C port with 15 W power delivery.
