Asus ROG Swift PG32UQX
With a few omissions and a high price tag, we can’t quite call the Asus ROG Swift PG32UQX perfect. But its picture quality is without equal among computer monitors. A Mini LED backlight with a quantum dot film provides amazing contrast and a huge color gamut for the latest gaming and video formats. It has the best image of any computer display we have ever reviewed.

The ASUS PG32UQX is a 32″ 4K 144Hz IPS gaming monitor with G-SYNC Ultimate, DisplayHDR 1400, wide Adobe RGB and DCI-P3 gamut coverage and a 1152-zone mini LED FALD backlight. While it is an amazing HDR gaming monitor, it has a few flaws, one of them being the $2,500 price tag.

The Asus ROG Swift PG32UQX is a top-class 4K gaming monitor. But with all of its high-end features, it should only be appealing to professional gamers or hardcore enthusiasts with big wallets—Asus is asking an astronomical $2,999 for the 32-inch display. In return, however, you get a screen that raises the bar, and takes gaming to a new level.

The Asus ROG Swift PG32UQX is the future of gaming monitors. Its $3,000 price tag is hard to swallow, and I certainly wouldn’t call it good value. Still, it feels justified. Most monitors, even those priced above $1,000, make slight tweaks to the same basic technology PC gamers have used for over a decade. Not the PG32UQX – this is the cutting edge.
