Full description and specifications

A 480Hz WOLED panel that answers in 0.03ms, on a 1440p screen your graphics card can realistically feed.

Quick Specs

  • 26.5" WOLED, 2560 x 1440, 16:9
  • 480Hz maximum refresh rate
  • 0.03ms grey-to-grey response
  • VESA DisplayHDR 400 True Black, 1,300 cd/m² HDR peak
  • DisplayPort 1.4 DSC, 2x HDMI 2.1 FRL, 2x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A

Why 480Hz at 1440p and not 4K

ASUS put this panel at QHD deliberately. At 2560 x 1440 a current upper-mid GPU can push the frame rates that make 480Hz mean something in CS2, Valorant or Overwatch, where the win comes from seeing a flick land a frame earlier. A 4K panel at the same refresh rate would be a number you never reach. The trade-off is pixel density: 26.5 inches at 1440p is about 111 PPI, sharp enough for daily work but not the text crispness of a 4K 27". If your hours are split between competitive shooters and spreadsheets, that is the compromise you are accepting.

OLED contrast, and the burn-in question

The 1,500,000:1 contrast figure is not marketing rounding. Each pixel switches itself off, so night scenes have no grey glow and HDR highlights sit against genuinely black surroundings. The honest caveat is static content. Taskbars, HUDs and IDE sidebars left on screen for eight hours a day are what shortens an OLED's life, and ASUS ships OLED Care pixel-shifting and cleaning cycles precisely because that risk is real. ASUS covers panel burn-in under the three-year warranty, which is the reassurance that matters. If this is your only monitor and it spends the working day showing Excel, buy an IPS instead.

Questions

Before you buy

What do I need to run it at its full refresh rate?
To reach 480Hz at 2560 x 1440 you need a graphics card able to output that mode, a cable that supports it, and the refresh rate selected in Windows display settings - monitors often default to 60Hz out of the box. The ports on this panel are listed under Specifications above.
What sort of panel is it?
It is OLED with a 0.03ms GtG response time. Panel type is the main thing that decides how a monitor looks off-centre and how it handles colour and contrast, so it is worth weighing against refresh rate rather than choosing on the headline number alone.
Can I wall-mount it or put it on an arm?
This is a 26.5 inch panel. Whether it takes a VESA mount, and at which spacing, is listed under Specifications - if a VESA size is shown there, any arm or bracket rated for that pattern and the monitor’s weight will fit. If you are not sure, send us the model of your arm and we will check.
Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
Yes - this one is in stock. Order before 12:00 on a working day and it ships the same day; after that it goes out the next working day. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday, so an order placed over a weekend or a public holiday ships on the next working day.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
