ASUS ROG Strix XG27UCGR - a 27 inch 4K Fast IPS monitor that switches to 485Hz at 1080p, with Aura Sync lighting and USB-C.
The XG27UCGR is the Gen2 of the ROG Strix XG27UCG, a 27 inch monitor with a 3840x2160 Fast IPS panel at 162Hz. Dual Mode switches the same panel to 1920x1080 at 485Hz for competitive play, so one screen covers both. Response is 1ms GtG, 0.3ms minimum, HDR is VESA DisplayHDR 400 with HDR10 at 400 nits, and the panel covers 95% DCI-P3 and 130% sRGB on 10-bit colour with 1300:1 contrast. Aura Sync lighting sits on the back. Adaptive-Sync covers AMD FreeSync Premium and G-SYNC Compatible with ELMB Sync, USB-C carries 15W of power delivery next to DisplayPort 1.4 and HDMI 2.1, and the stand adjusts 110mm with tilt, swivel and pivot on a 100x100mm VESA mount.
