Product Overview

ASUS ROG Swift PG32UQ is a premium 32-inch 4K UHD gaming monitor with 144Hz refresh rate, 4ms response time, 160% coverage of the sRGB color space, and DisplayHDR 600.
Compared to the PG32UQX unveiled later in 2021, the PG32UQ uses conventional LED backlighting. As such, it has lower brightness and HDR performance. It also loses the LiveDash OLED display in the bezel.
At the same time, the PG32UQ supports HDMI 2.1 standard, giving support to native 4K 120Hz on gaming consoles, Display Stream Compression (DSC) and G-SYNC as well as FreeSync Premium Pro.
ASUS also markets PG329Q with a fast-IPS QHD panel unveiled last year.
