Asus has announced an updated version of its high-end gaming monitor, the ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDM Gen 3, adding a few notable refinements to an already familiar formula.
The monitor includes a 32-inch 4K QD-OLED display built around Samsung’s panel technology, a 240Hz refresh rate, 0.03ms response time, and support for competitive gaming as well as content creation.
The main change this time comes in the form of a new Black Shield Film. According to Asus, the added layer improves black levels in brighter rooms and cuts down on the purple tint QD-OLED panels can show under strong ambient lighting. The company claims up to a 40 percent improvement in perceived black depth, along with an anti-reflective coating. The surface is also said to be more durable, with higher scratch resistance for day-to-day use.
Connectivity has also been updated. The PG32UCDM Gen 3 now supports DisplayPort 2.1 UHBR20, joining HDMI 2.1 for next-gen consoles and high-end GPUs. There’s also a USB-C port with 90W power delivery, making it easier to pair the monitor with laptops using a single cable.
Other features carry over from the previous model. These include NVIDIA G-SYNC compatibility, Dolby Vision support, a built-in KVM switch, and Asus’ OLED Care tools aimed at reducing burn-in over time. The monitor is now certified for VESA DisplayHDR 500 True Black, up from HDR 400 on the earlier version.
Pricing and availability haven’t been detailed yet. While the older PG32UCDM is still on sale in some regions, the Gen 3 appears positioned as Asus’ most refined QD-OLED option to date, especially for users gaming in brighter environments.
