480Hz OLED is HERE! (and its sick) - ASUS PG27AQDP

480Hz 1440p OLED is finally here thanks to the Asus PG27AQDP. There's a lot to unpack besides just the speed and this looks like it could be a solid pick for a single monitor - assuming you have the cash. Or is there another way to go?

Kudos for being the first review out! Great job on it as well, appreciate the info!

I don't want this to come off as this monitor not being a beast because it 100% is, but according to my testing, using DSC compression slows down alt-tabbing significantly. Even with HDMI 2.1 you're at 41.92 Gbit/s and the data rate without DSC compression requires around 56 Gbit/s to even manage 1440p 480 Hz so yes as already mentioned, you'd be forced to use DSC. I feel like that is a huge turn-off for me which is why I ended up going with the Asus 1440p 240 Hz version at 8 Bpc color depth since Displayport 1.3 and above handles it without DSC compression. But again, if you don't mind alt-tabbing being slower then it's absolutely a killer monitor with great features. The point with this comment was to simply share my findings after researching why alt-tabs were so slow for me. Edit: The easiest solution is of course to avoid Exclusive Fullscreen and run Fullscreen Windowed although I can't guarantee if that's going to affect input lag and you'd be forced to run the game on native res.

Dude your videos never miss! You're the only person who clearly touched on ELMB vs ULMB2 and explained it perfectly. I am currently running a PG27AQN 360HZ with ULMB2 and I love it. Seeing if this is a worthy upgrade for me. I am extremely sensitive to text fringing and have returned two previous gen 27" OLEDs from ASUS because of that. This might be the one....

Thanks brother! 🍻

Been waiting since they announced this monitor at CES for it's drop, thank you so much for the great review. As I mostly play games that could definitely push 480hz (some not even in naitive resolutions) it definitely seems like my next (and hopefully endgame) monitor, providing the prices are as expected.

Pauses video, looks at wallet, *cries*, plays video...

Pre-ordered in Sweden. What a time to be alive! 🎉

Im glad to see its WOLED with a matte finish because that means its just like the PG27AQDM which i own currently but with 2× the refresh rate and thats exactly what I want. The PG27AQDM has been the best monitor I've ever owned so I wouldn't want to make changes to it aside from it just being faster. I'll be buying the PG27AQDP as soon as it hits shelves. I've been patiently waiting for this one. This is my end game monitor. I will likely be keeping this one for the next 4-5 years.

Thank you for being the literal only person who talks about using 24.5 inches mode when reviewing these GAMING ESPORT MONITORS

Like it's so stupid no one even talks about it

I bought the 240hz 1440p lg woled when it first came out, open box for 800. im super happy with my purchase ofc but damn its crazy how far its come in 2~ years.

[GoblinManSam]

I've been waiting on this guy for about a year now lol. I'm rocking the Asus ROG Swift PG258Q since 2017 so I'm ready for the upgrade.

[OdiumTV]

BFI at 240Hz is what got me to change my order from the 4k 240 / 1080p 480 to this one in a heartbeat

[diogopadrao]

Cannot tell you how much I have been waiting for this screen. Awesome review as usual. Really interested if you will talk about the Extreme Keyboard and Mouse from ROG, which seem way too expensive?

[rock-steady-yeti]

Stay Up! Adding this in for those that are sad we missed it. Thanks Mr. Seed great video, have my EYE on this bad boy have a gen1 Asus G Sync monitor that is really showing it's age!

[TylerClarkMusic]

What W-OLED monitors are coming out with the new sub-pixel layout? I'm 100% holding off for that, because I want the monitor to be a daily driver for everything. Also, your review was extremely helpful and on point.

[houssamalucad]

Banger video, very interesting monitor and great detailed review of it!
We need more of your reviews man

[TurboDz]

Best review because you actually do BFI comparison.

[needsomewater]

Subbed right away when i noticed how JACKED you are sir! Straight to the point and highly disciplined equals a sub

[technopath]

Just got man hands on this and it is as epic as it sounds completely lives up to the hype

[SparcMac]

I was waiting for this one but instead went with the PG32UCDM and couldn’t be happier. I’m sure that 480hz is going to look crispy though 😅

[dream.machine]

Perfect review. I would probably get something like this with enougy money (lol). It very versatile with super high fps without dropping the resolution. That can go past gaming, to web scrolling, and video editing somewhat.
