The upcoming Consumer Electronics Show (CES) is set to take place from January 7 to January 10 in 2025. Many tech firms usually unveil their newest products at this event. However, Asus has already begun to tease the ROG Swift OLED PG27UCDM since early December.
Details on the PG27UCDM
Asus has now provided complete specifications for the PG27UCDM, which utilizes the same panel found in the MSI MPG 272URX QD-OLED and the Samsung Odyssey OLED G8 G81SF, both of which were also announced today. This new monitor is essentially a compact version of last year's ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDM, currently priced at $1,199 on Amazon. The PG27UCDM features a Gen 4 QD-OLED panel that enhances text clarity with a pixel density of 166 PPI.
Features and Performance
Additionally, Asus asserts that this monitor experiences 20% less flicker compared to Gen 3 QD-OLED panels. The maximum SDR brightness is still capped at 250 nits. The ROG Swift OLED PG27UCDM boasts an impressive 0.03 ms GtG response time and supports both AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and Nvidia G-SYNC to reduce screen tearing. The monitor now includes a DisplayPort 2.1a connection that offers a peak bandwidth of 80 Gbps (UHBR20).
Connectivity and Power
This means the ROG Swift OLED PG27UCDM can achieve 4K resolution at 240 Hz without needing Display Stream Compression (DSC), provided it is paired with a compatible GPU. However, it's worth noting that neither AMD nor Nvidia has yet released a consumer graphics card that supports DisplayPort 2.1a UHBR20. Additionally, the monitor features HDMI 2.1, USB Type-A, and USB Type-C ports, with the USB Type-C capable of charging devices at up to 90 W.
Asus has yet to announce the pricing or release date for the PG27UCDM. Unfortunately, previous product launches suggest that this information may not be revealed during CES 2025 either. Still, some independent reviews are available below.
