Summary
ASUS ROG Swift PG34WCDM impresses with a state-of-the-art OLED panel that delivers an impressive refresh rate for an extremely smooth and responsive gaming experience. The exceptionally fast pixel response time of 0.1 ms helps to minimize motion blur, which is particularly beneficial for fast-paced games. In addition, the monitor supports BFI (Black Frame Insertion) at 120 Hz, which contributes to a further improvement in picture quality.

The monitor’s factory settings and calibration are very good, ensuring accurate and realistic color reproduction. In addition, the monitor offers an outstanding HDR experience thanks to almost perfect gray scale tracking, resulting in vivid contrasts and impressive image dynamics. The build quality is very good and the matte anti-gloss panel is impressive. Particularly noteworthy is the custom heatsink, which can make a significant contribution to the longevity of the panel.
Overall, the ASUS ROG Swift PG34WCDM seems to be an excellent choice for gaming enthusiasts who demand the highest standards of picture quality, response speed and HDR performance. In the end, the only question that remains is which is better QD OLED with 175 Hz or WOLED with 240 Hz? It’s hard to say, because the differences between the two panel types are almost a matter of taste in the end.
Conclusion
The PG34WCDM really surprised me. The pixel density has a positive effect on text readability and in terms of color accuracy, the gaming monitor is in a league of its own. Both in HDR and SDR, the PG34WCDM is impressive in terms of color accuracy. Overall, the PG34WCDM offers a high-quality combination of performance, picture quality and durability.
What currently still bothers me is the price. According to Geizhals, the monitor is still simply too expensive at 1,500 euros. As good as the PG34WCDM may be, in the end it doesn’t justify the price compared to the QD OLED models. If the ASUS ROG Swift PG34WCDM is priced in the range of a Dell Alienware AW3423DWF (approx. 900 euros), then the PG34WCDM is a no-brainer and would be my first choice.
For me, the PG34WCDM currently offers the best overall package and the fact is: it works! Even without the teething troubles of its QD-OLED competitors. If you want to strike now, you’re welcome to do so, because apart from spending too much money – you can’t go wrong with the PG34WCDM.
The monitor was provided to me by ASUS ROG without obligation – for testing purposes. There was no influence on the tests and results. There was also no compensation for expenses and no obligation to publish by Samsung or anyone else.
