A few days ago, Acer announced that their Predator X27 4K HDR monitor is going to be be delayed until the first quarter of next year. Well, something appears to be going on, since ASUS has pushed back the launch of their ASUS ROG Swift PG27UQ as well. Both monitors have nearly identical specifications, while featuring the same panel for instance.


As we already mentioned the Swift PG27UQ monitor is going to be equipped with a 27-inch panel and 3840 x 2160 Pixel resolution. There will be one HDMI 2.0 connector and two DisplayPort 1.4 ports. The display is based on an IPS panel with 100.000.000:1 contrast ratio and 1000 cd/m2 brightness. ASUS is marketing this display as a gaming monitor and it supports G-Sync. The refresh rate is set to up to 144Hz and the grey-to-grey response time is set to 4ms.

On top of the specs there is a very well-built thin frame, which allows for pan, tilt, swivel and height adjustment. So far ASUS has not revealed any details on pricing and with the launch being pushed back, we might have to wait a little while longer to find out what the Swift PG27UQ 4K G-Sync monitor is going to cost. So far it looks like this display is going to become available in Q1 2018.
