Gamers and display enthusiasts can finally take the next step toward ultra-fast visuals. The ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG27AQWP-W is now available for preorder, bringing one of the most talked-about gaming monitors of 2025 into the real world. The new ROG Swift OLED monitor was first teased last year and has since become something of a legend in enthusiast circles for its combination of Tandem OLED technology and astonishing refresh rates.

At its core, this 27-inch QHD gaming monitor uses LG’s latest Tandem OLED panel, which unlocks a native 540Hz refresh rate at its 2560×1440 resolution. However, a special dual-mode setting lets you push the screen up to an eye-watering 720Hz when you drop the resolution to HD (1280×720). It’s a capability that mirrors the LG UltraGear 27GX790B-B. Both panels use dual-mode refresh tech to combine ultra-fast motion clarity with OLED quality.

What really sets this screen apart isn’t just the headline refresh number, but how it pairs with OLED’s naturally fast pixel response times and deep contrast performance. The combination means smoother motion, lower perceived latency, and visuals that feel more responsive, especially in fast-paced esports titles where every millisecond counts. Gamers chasing peak performance in titles like Valorant, CS2, or Fortnite are likely to notice this kind of speed more than on traditional 240Hz or even 360Hz panels.

In addition to refresh rates, the monitor includes ASUS’s TrueBlack Glossy coating for richer blacks and more vibrant colors. There’s also the OLED Care Pro feature with Neo Proximity Sensor, which helps reduce burn-in risk by dimming or turning off the panel when you step away. Connectivity is robust too, with DisplayPort 2.1 and HDMI 2.1 support for the widest range of gaming systems and PCs.

Preorders are live now in the U.S. and other regions, on both the ASUS eStore and Newegg, with pricing around the $1,099 range. Sure, it’s a premium price tag, but it’s also a competitive figure for hardware at this level of performance. Whether you’re chasing professional-tier responsiveness or simply want the smoothest visuals money can buy, the ROG Swift OLED PG27AQWP-W finally turns that 720Hz dream into something you can actually put in your cart. That said, if you want, you can also opt for the LG UltraGear 27GX790B-B, which goes for about $100 cheaper.
