During the CES 2023, Asus unveiled ROG Swift Pro PG248QP as the world’s first 540Hz gaming monitor. But the company failed to make the monitor available for sale and the Alienware AW2524H became the actual first 500Hz gaming monitor you can buy. In any case, a report now claims Asus will finally launch the ROG PG248QP later this month.
China’s ITHome reports the Asus ROG PG248QP will be launched in the third week of September. The publication cites Video Hall as the news source. However, there’s no official confirmation from Asus. It was hinted during CES that the monitor would start shipping in Q2 of this year, so the report might not be incorrect.
The 24.1-inch Asus ROG Swift Pro PG248QP is a 1080p monitor that’s designed for serious gamers. The PG248QP has an overclocked E-TN panel with a refresh rate of up to 540Hz. The ROG Swift Pro is apparently for those who prefer the speed of the panel and its low latency over high resolution.
It comes with support for Nvidia G-SYNC, built-in ESS DAC for surround sound, and gunshot and footstep enhancement. It’s also got a built-in ESS Quad DAC with near-zero audio latency and comes with a 3.5mm headphone jack, a DisplayPort 1.4, and a HDMI 2.0 port.
Asus says it is using a TN panel on the monitor, which offers 90% coverage of the DCI-P3 color gamut. The pricing details of the Asus ROG PG247QP are anyone’s guess. However, The Verge reported in January the monitor will cost $899 USD.
