The Ultimate Gaming Monitor for Serious Gamers
The ASUS ROG Swift 41.5â 4K OLED Gaming Monitor (PG42UQ) is hands down the best monitor Iâve ever owned. The 4K OLED display is absolutely breathtaking, with vivid colors and deep blacks that make every game look stunning. The DCI-P3 98% color gamut and true 10-bit support make this perfect not just for gaming but also for content creation and movie watching.
Gaming on this monitor is a dream. The 138Hz refresh rate and 0.1ms response time deliver buttery-smooth gameplay with no lag or ghosting, even in fast-paced action games. Plus, the G-SYNC compatibility ensures tear-free gaming, whether Iâm on my PC or console. The HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort connections are modern and versatile, making it easy to switch between devices.
I also appreciate the thoughtful features like the anti-glare coating, which keeps reflections to a minimum, and the included remote control for easy adjustments. Itâs console-ready, making it perfect for my PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X setups.
Yes, itâs a premium investment, but if youâre looking for the absolute best in gaming monitors, the ASUS ROG Swift PG42UQ is worth every penny. Highly recommended for gamers and tech enthusiasts!

Great Monitor, till it was not.
Just an update to my original review below. After Asusâs service department reviewed my claim, they agreed to cover the cost of the repair. So after another week a member of their support team called me to let me know they were shipping it back to me and gave me the tracking info. They also wanted to close out the case but I told them I wanted to wait to make sure there was no issues with my monitor. Upon arriving I took pictures of the whole box and made sure to take pictures as I was unpacking for records sake if thing turned out bad. Good thing I did because it came back again damaged on the other side of the monitor.
Once again, I contacted their support to let them know about this and was told to ship it back to them and they would pay to have it shipped overnight. I packed it back up and shipped it out. After about a week I heard back from their service department. First to tell me that the damaged is not covered and that if I wished to have it fixed I would have to pay, then a follow up email, telling me to ignore the other and that they were going to replace the monitor.
After that last contact It has been a little over a week before they reached out again to offer me a replacement of a different older model that is nearly $600 less than what I paid for and has none of the features other than being about the same size. Suffice to say, I said no. Waiting to see now what they plan to do.

I dont normally write word reviews for products but this current situation has made me so upset that I feel the need to share so others may be aware going in.
I bought this back in January and we really happy with it. Picture was great and performance was as expected. Honestly was very happy. Had to take precautions because was worried about OLED burn in, but other than that, was not worried.
A few months down the line, decided to pull the trigger and put together a new PC that was top of the line. While doing benchmarks, noticed the black spots on the screen along the side. At first, thought it was a stuck pixel but after contacting their chat support, was told it would need to be sent in to be fixed.
Was given an RMA and off it went. Took a bit but they finally sent it back after about 2 Weeks. Did not get any notice about what was fixed, in fact only reason I knew it was coming back was Fedex sends me notices for anything shipping to me. After getting it back, took out and set it up. Upon plugging it in, now the screen is complete busted. After looking at the monitor, it was damaged in several places and warped along the side.
Contacted their support again and advised that now instead of a monitor with black spots, its now completely busted. The had me check the box it was sent back in but there was no sign of any damage as far as I could see. The only difference is it seemed to have less packing material than when it went out.
Was told to send it in again, and I did so, with a new box and more padding. I got the notice back from their repair center that the damage is not covered and that if I wish to have it fixed, I would have to pay $1219.42. This is almost the cost of what I paid for the monitor.
Suffice to say I am very upset and have contact their support again, and was told to dispute the charges and they would review the claim.
I have had this for barely 6 months, 1 month of that has been me shipping this back and forth. I am hoping that they do right by me but at this point I do not have much faith.

Wow. This thing is amazing!
First, for all of the people who have mentioned the latest bios having issues. Yes, it does. Their website clearly states that you might run into these issues depending on what video card you are using. A new bios will be released later this month that will not have these problems.
This monitor is incredible. Deep rich blacks and vibrant colors. Unlike the LG C2, it was designed for gaming and isn’t a TV that can substitute for gaming. It uses the same panel as the C2. Also, I prefer the antiglare coating on this to the C2. It is much better for computers. Having HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4 is great. Use DisplayPort 1.4 if you have the option and get a cable that you know will work with 1.4. The onscreen menu is simple and easy to use.
The speakers are OK, but not as good as the ones I have, so I don’t use them.
You need to understand that this thing is *BIG*. You will need a desk that allows you to sit a decent distance away from it. I probably sit about 30 – 32″ away from mine and it’s still a little close, but I love how it maintains the 16:9 ratio and yet takes up my entire field of view. Gaming on this monitor is a whole new experience. I have never had such an immersive experience gaming as I have with this monitor. Working with spreadsheets is a joy and browsing the web makes you feel like you have tons of extra space. I can easily open multiple pages on my monitor and read them all. It’s fantastic and a heck of a time-saver!
Don’t get me wrong. This is an expensive monitor, but you will fall in love with it if you have the space and a computer that has a powerful enough videocard to run this beast.

In my opinion, the Asus PG42UQ OLED is better than my Samsung Odyssey Ark. The Asus has better colors and a better size. It’s just better in every way.
