Asus ROG Strix XG27AQDPG Announced with 27″ 1440p 500Hz QD-OLED Panel
Announced somewhat quietly this week ahead of CES 2025, Asus have unveiled their new ROG Strix XG27AQDPG. This is a 27″ (accurately 26.5″) sized screen with a 2560 x 1440 resolution and a 500Hz refresh rate. It’s built around a new Samsung Display QD-OLED panel, and goes along with similar models already announced this week from MSI and Samsung in offering the latest and greatest OLED refresh rates.
XG27AQDPG Specs and features
Additional specs announced at this time include a 0.03ms G2G response time, a 10-bit colour depth and wide colour gamut covering 99% DCI-P3. The new screen features their new ROG OLED Care Pro technology that includes the Neo Proximity Sensor that uses wavelength detection to accurately measure a user’s distance to the monitor. If no user is detected, the monitor automatically switches to a black screen to reduce the risk of burn-in. Lastly, the XG27AQDPG includes a 3-year warranty with burn-in cover.
The new screen includes their new ROG OLED Anti-Flicker 2.0 technology that minimizes onscreen flicker for comfortable gaming and viewing experiences. It leverages an advanced luminance compensation algorithm to dynamically boost pixel brightness during refresh rate fluctuations, resulting in 20% less flicker compared to previous generation panels for more uniform visuals without sacrificing input lag and refresh rates. The Refresh Rate Cap feature caps the monitor refresh rate to reduce onscreen flicker. It has three preset ranges (High / Mid / Off) to suit individual preferences.
The monitor boasts extensive connectivity options including DisplayPort 1.4 with Display Stream Compression (DSC), and HDMI 2.1. The inclusion of DisplayWidget Center software allows users to intuitively adjust monitor settings and OLED Care Pro functions via a mouse.
Pricing and Availability
All that the Asus press release says at the moment is that the screen “will be available in the near future”. More info, specs and details when we get them. Check out our coverage, including this screen from the Asus booth at CES 2025 here.
