![]() Though this could go both ways, as some gamers expect minimal user configuration for products at the upper end of ‘premium’. This could be particularly problematic depending on the nature of the HDR with 4:2:2 chroma subsampling performance hit for Pascal cards. At this time, even the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti is not capable of reaching much beyond 80fps or so, and with NVIDIA stepping back from SLI, especially with 2+ way configurations, multi-GPU options are somewhat unpredictable and require more user-configuration. ![]() The graphics hardware landscape brings us to the other idea behind getting a monitor of this caliber: futureproofing. ![]() ![]() The use-cases where all those features would be used simultaneously, that is, HDR games, are somewhat limited due to the nature of HDR support in PC games, as well as the horsepower of graphics cards currently on the market. But if price is at least somewhat of a consideration – and for the vast majority, it still is – then not using all those features simultaneously means not utilizing the full value of the monitor, and at $2000 this is already including an existing premium. The $2000 price point is firmly in the ultra-high-end based on the specific combination of functionalities that the display offers: 4K, 144Hz, G-Sync, and DisplayHDR 1000-level HDR.įor ‘price is no object’ types, this is hardly a concern if the ROG Swift PG27UQ can hit all those well – and it does. Given the pricing and capabilities, the PG27UQ is destined to be paired with the highest end graphics cards for a 4K 144Hz target, multi-GPU with SLI is the only – and pricy – solution for more intensive games.Īnd on that note, therein lies the main nuance with the PG27UQ. However, those aspects aren’t severe enough to be dealbreakers except in very specific scenarios, such as for silent PC setups. As a whole, the monitor comes with some slight design compromises: design bulkiness, active cooling, limited connectivity. ![]() In terms of panel quality and color reproduction, the PG27UQ is excellent by our tests. Bringing this review to a close, the ROG Swift PG27UQ has some subtleties as it is just as much a ‘G-Sync HDR’ monitor as it is an ROG Swift 4Kp144 HDR monitor. ![]()
