FAQs

What is QD-OLED technology?

QD-OLED combines Quantum Dot technology with OLED. This allows for better brightness, color volume, and longevity compared to traditional OLED panels, while retaining OLED's perfect blacks and fast response times.

How do I enable the 500Hz refresh rate?

Ensure you are using the DisplayPort 1.4 connection and that your graphics card supports it. Set the refresh rate to 500Hz in your operating system's display settings and in the monitor's OSD menu. Your PC must also be capable of outputting frames at this rate.

What is the difference between G-SYNC Compatible and FreeSync Premium Pro?

Both are adaptive sync technologies that synchronize the monitor's refresh rate with your graphics card's frame output to prevent screen tearing and stuttering. G-SYNC Compatible is for NVIDIA cards, while FreeSync Premium Pro is for AMD cards. This monitor supports both.

How does the Neo Proximity Sensor work?

The sensor detects your presence in front of the monitor. If no user is detected for a set period, it can automatically switch the display to a black screen to prevent burn-in of static elements, conserving panel life.

Can I use this monitor with a console like the PS5 or Xbox Series X?

Yes, the monitor supports HDMI 2.1, allowing it to connect with next-generation consoles to take advantage of features like 4K/120Hz or 1440p/120Hz (console dependent) and VRR (Variable Refresh Rate).

What is the energy consumption of this monitor?

The typical power consumption is 65W. Energy consumption for 1000 hours is 24 kWh in SDR and 25 kWh in HDR, with an Energy Efficiency Class of F for both.

Does the monitor have built-in speakers?

No, the ASUS ROG Strix XG27AQDPG does not have built-in speakers. You will need to use external speakers or headphones connected via the 3.5mm headphone jack.

Troubleshooting

Monitor does not power on.

Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the monitor and a working wall outlet. Try a different outlet. Check if the power indicator light is on.

No signal detected on screen.

Verify that the correct input source is selected on the monitor. Ensure the display cable (HDMI or DisplayPort) is securely connected to both the monitor and your graphics card. Try a different cable.

Screen flickering or tearing.

Ensure G-SYNC or FreeSync is enabled in your graphics card's control panel and on the monitor's OSD. Update your graphics card drivers. Check display cable connections.

Image persistence or burn-in is visible.

Activate the OLED Care Pro features, including the Neo Proximity Sensor and OLED Anti-Flicker. Run the monitor's built-in pixel refresh utility. Avoid prolonged display of static images at high brightness. Use screen savers.

Colors appear inaccurate or washed out.

Calibrate the monitor using its OSD settings or dedicated calibration software. Ensure the correct color profile is selected in your operating system. Check that HDR settings are correctly configured if applicable.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Unpack the monitor and all accessories carefully.
  2. Attach the monitor stand to the display panel using the provided screws. Ensure it is securely fastened.
  3. Connect the monitor to your PC or console using either the HDMI 2.1 or DisplayPort 1.4 cable. For the highest refresh rates, DisplayPort is recommended.
  4. Plug the power adapter into the monitor and a wall outlet.
  5. Connect any USB devices (keyboard, mouse, etc.) to the USB Type-A downstream ports on the monitor's hub.
  6. Power on the monitor and your computer. Select the correct input source using the monitor's OSD (On-Screen Display) controls.

Compatibility:

  • Operating Systems: Windows, macOS, Linux (ensure your graphics drivers are up to date).
  • Graphics Cards: Compatible with NVIDIA GeForce and AMD Radeon graphics cards. For G-SYNC functionality, an NVIDIA card is required. AMD FreeSync works with compatible AMD cards.
  • Consoles: Supports current-generation consoles (e.g., PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S) via HDMI 2.1 for high refresh rate and resolution gaming.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to clean the screen. For stubborn marks, lightly dampen the cloth with water or a screen-specific cleaner. Never spray liquid directly onto the screen.
  • OLED Longevity: Utilize the OLED Care Pro features, including the Neo Proximity Sensor and OLED Anti-Flicker 2.0, to minimize burn-in risk. Avoid displaying static images at high brightness for extended periods. Regularly use the monitor's pixel refresh or screen saver functions.
  • Ventilation: Ensure the monitor has adequate ventilation, especially around the rear where the custom heatsink is located, to prevent overheating.
