ROG quality, mainstream value

ROG is perhaps best known for bringing cutting-edge display tech to the market, but we do a lot of work to bring feature-rich monitors to mainstream gamers, too. Our ROG XG Series LCD gaming monitors are available for great prices, they deliver all the PC gaming essentials, and they go above and beyond to spoil you with everyday conveniences.

The series includes a wide range of options, but we’ll highlight a few of our most popular models. The ROG Strix XG27ACS is easy to recommend for anyone building their first PC gaming setup. It hits the sweet spot of resolution and screen size with its 27-inch 1440p Fast IPS panel. Its 180Hz refresh rate and G-SYNC Compatible tech give you fluid, tear-free animation. Want to kick up the refresh rate even further? The ROG Strix XG27ACMS bumps up to 320Hz alongside a 0.3ms response time (min. GTG) to give you the upper hand in fast-paced action. Perhaps you’d prefer higher pixel density instead. Check out the ROG Strix XG27UCS, which puts 4K gaming within reach for wide audiences.

Whatever option you pick, you’ll get a space-saving stand with an integrated smartphone holder and a tripod socket up top for your webcam. Each offers a USB Type-C port with USB Power Delivery so that you can recharge your smartphone while keeping an eye on your notifications. A convenient cable management channel in the stand helps keep your setup tidy, and you’ll have plenty of ergonomic adjustments for positioning your new monitor for perfect viewing comfort.

Premium OLED panels for a great price

The latest name in gaming monitors is OLED, and for good reason. The spec sheets for these premium displays read like a gamer’s ultimate monitor wishlist. Offering ultra-clear motion in fast-paced action, lightning-quick refresh rates, vibrant colors, and lifelike blacks, OLED monitors are a drop-in upgrade for just about any gaming setup.

ROG OLED gaming monitors are available in a wide range of sizes, specs, and price points. Throughout this ROG monitor guide, we’ll look at many of these options, but we’ll start off with a few that make this dream display technology an attainable reality for today’s gamers.

One of our favorites is the ROG Strix OLED XG27AQDMG. It sits right in the Goldilocks zone for most gamers. You’ll get a welcome boost in detail with its 1440p resolution, but you won’t need anything more than a mainstream graphics card to run games fast enough to take advantage of its 240Hz refresh rate. With its supremely low 0.03ms response time, you’ll get an ultra-clear picture even in fast-paced action. Need even more speed? The ROG Strix OLED XG27AQDPG kicks the refresh rate all the way to 500Hz, giving it tournament-grade esports credentials.

The XG27AQDMG’s glossy WOLED panel offers excellent contrast even in rooms with plenty of ambient light, but perhaps you’re a dark-room kind of gamer who’d prefer an anti-reflection coating instead. Check out the ROG Strix OLED XG27ACDMS. Its QD-OLED panel perform well in this scenario, and that’s not the only way that it ups the ante. It offers a Neo Proximity Sensor that can seamlessly dim the screen when it’s not in use for energy savings and to reduce the risk of burn-in.

Big-time immersion with a 32-inch OLED gaming monitor

27-inch monitors are a great all-around choice, but maybe you’re in the market for something big. A 32-inch monitor gives you a large window into your gaming worlds, filling your vision in a way that smaller displays can’t match.

The ROG Strix OLED XG32UCDS gives you a 32-inch sweep of QD-OLED goodness. You’ll get smooth and clear motion with its 165Hz refresh rate and 0.03ms response along with all our recent OLED advancements: ASUS OLED Care Pro, a Neo Proximity Sensor, ROG Gaming AI technology, and more.

One ROG OLED gaming monitor that’s turning a lot of heads in 2025 is the ROG Strix OLED XG32UCWG. Partly, that’s due to the choice of panel and coating. Its WOLED panel with a TrueBlack Glossy coating is well-suited for giving you excellent contrast and inky blacks even in rooms with higher ambient lighting, making this display a great pick for a multi-use monitor that’s liable to see action at any time of day. But it’s also a highly versatile monitor thanks to Frame Rate Boost. With a tap of a button, you can switch it between 4K 165Hz and FHD 330Hz modes, allowing you to prioritize a high resolution or a high refresh rate to best suit the game that you’re currently playing.

The response times of OLED panels are so jaw-droppingly fast that some gamers prefer models that push refresh rates to extremes, too. The ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDM is favorite for these gamers, as it pairs its 4K resolution with a fluid 240Hz refresh rate. Want even more versatility? The ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDP is a dual-mode monitor that adds Frame Rate Boost to the mix, letting you turn on a dime between 4K 240Hz and FHD 480Hz modes.

Precision-built for esports enthusiasts

If you’re a competitive gamer, you need a PC and a display that are as fast as your reflexes. Typically, esports gamers build a PC that excels at producing exceptionally high frame rates at a GPU-friendly resolution like FHD. Then, they’ll pair that PC with a relatively smaller monitor that boasts a supremely fast refresh rate.

That’s exactly what you’ll get with the ROG Strix XG259QNG. This 25-inch (24.5-inch viewable) gaming monitor puts the pedal to the metal with a 380Hz refresh rate, a level of speed used to be the sole domain of flagship esports monitors. Now, it’s available for wide audiences — and with this monitor, you’ll get a fast response time, blur-reducing ELMB Sync tech, a space-saving stand, and more.

The ROG Strix XG248QSG Ace resets the bar for tournament-grade esports monitors. This precision-tuned display wields an otherworldly 610Hz refresh rate thanks to its advanced Super TN panel. It achieves 0.1ms minimum response times for high-end clarity in fast-paction action, and it allows you to crush perceptual blur with Extreme Low Motion Blur 2 (ELMB 2) technology. To make sure that you have sufficient desk space for your mousing hand, even when you’re sitting up close to your monitor, we re-engineered the stand to be 30% smaller than other ROG XG monitors. Then, we gave the stand a huge range of ergonomic adjustments, including a tilt range that runs from +35° to -5°, so that you can get the perfect angle on the competition.

Ultra-wide gaming excellence for sims of all kinds

We’ll wrap up this ROG gaming monitor guide with a recommendation for the ultrawide enthusiasts out there. With their increased horizontal screen space, ultrawide monitors extend into the periphery of your vision for heightened immersion, and they’re especially popular with racing and flight sim enthusiasts.

The ROG Strix OLED XG34WCDG combines the premium visuals of a QD-OLED panel with a 34-inch panel with a 3440×1440 resolution. For clarity at the far edges of the screen, the panel features an 1800R curvature that helps keep all the pixels equidistant from your eyes. This monitor offers a 175Hz refresh rate and 0.03ms response time for clear, fluid animation, and it boasts our latest-gen ROG OLED gaming monitor advancements like a Neo Proximity Sensor.
