ASUS ROG Swift 500Hz is World’s First Gaming Monitor That Refreshes 500-Times Per Second

Unveiled at Computex 2022 in Taipei, Taiwan, the ASUS ROG Swift 500Hz is the world’s first gaming monitor that refreshes 500-times per second, offering the smoothest motion you’ll find in modern esports. This display was designed from the ground up for esports, utilizing an all-new “Esports TN panel” (E-TN) for maximum motion clarity. Plus, it has an NVIDIA G-SYNC Esports Mode with adjustable esports vibrance.

NVIDIA Reflex Analyzer support enables users to measure end to end system latency when using a NVIDIA Reflex mouse and GeForce GPU with the 24.1-inch Full HD (1920×1080) panel. There’s no word yet on pricing or availability, but considering the ASUS ROG Strix 1.3″ 1080p portable gaming monitor retails for $499.99 USD, this should be priced in the neighborhood of $899 – $1099. Pair this with the Acer Predator Thronos Gaming Chair, and you’ll probably never leave the house.
