Our take on the Monitor ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG42UQ 42"(41,5") 4K 138Hz 0,1ms G-SYNC, 98%DCI-P3, HDMI,DP-GAMING

The ROG Swift OLED PG42UQ is a 41.5-inch 4K OLED gaming monitor built on a 138Hz panel with a 0.1ms response time and G-Sync support. Its OLED panel covers 98% of DCI-P3, so colors are wide and blacks are true black, which is the main draw over similarly sized LCD gaming displays. It suits desk and console players who want a big 4K screen for games and video, though at this size it needs a deep desk and some care against static-image burn-in. Rivals in the large-OLED class trade some refresh rate or connectivity for a lower entry point, while this one leans on Asus ROG tuning and a matte finish.

Questions and answers

Is the PG42UQ good for competitive gaming?

Yes. The 138Hz refresh, 0.1ms response and G-Sync make it smooth for fast games, though a smaller, higher-refresh panel is often preferred for esports.

Does OLED burn-in affect this monitor?

OLED panels can develop burn-in from static images like HUDs or desktop icons over long sessions. Asus includes OLED care features, but varied content and screen savers help.

Can it run a PS5 or Xbox Series X at 4K?

Yes. It has HDMI inputs and handles 4K console output, so it works as a large console display as well as a PC monitor.

Does it have built-in speakers?

Yes, the PG42UQ includes built-in speakers, so a separate soundbar is optional for casual use.

What is in the box?

The monitor ships with its stand, power cable and display cables for connecting a PC or console.

Is it worth it over a 4K LCD gaming monitor?

If you want true blacks, wide color and a big screen, the OLED picture is the main advantage. A 4K LCD costs less and avoids burn-in risk but gives up contrast.
