ASUS ROG Strix XG32UQ apporte HDMI 2.1 et 4K à 160 Hz

ASUS has unveiled its first 32-inch ROG Strix monitor with 4K resolution in the shape of the XG32UQ. It comes with all the features you’d expect from a modern 4K display, such as HDMI 2.1 and a 120 Hz mode for consoles. It obviously also has a DP 1.4 port and supports up to 160 Hz refresh rate thanks to its Fast IPS panel. It’s certified for FreeSync Premium Pro and is G-Sync Compatible, as well as having a DisplayHDR 600 attestation. Curieusement, ASUS didn’t implement USB-C support, nor can the XG32UQ function as a KVM, a feature that has become pretty standard on higher-end monitors like this. It does have a USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gbit/s) Entrée de type B et deux USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A outs though.

The panel meets 96 percent of the DCI-P3 and 130 percent of the sRGB colour space and the typical brightness in SDR mode is 450 cd/m². ASUS has also implemented it’s game visual features and what the company calls extreme low motion blur. The pane comes factory calibrated, so the XG32UQ should be possible to use for work as well as gaming. ASUS has also taken a leaf out of Corsair’s playbook by implementing a screw mount at the top of the stand, to which something like a webcam mount could be fitted. There’s no word on pricing, but based on pricing for similar products, we’d hazard a guess that it’ll end up around the $1000 marque.
