Going Big with Next-gen Gameplay

It gets even better on PC, with up to 4K 144 Hz visuals when powered by the latest graphics cards. DSC technology supports 4K UHD visuals via a single DisplayPort 1.4 connection by compressing and decompressing each frame on the fly, with no loss in image quality.

Display Stream Compression (DSC) technology

Display Stream Compression technology is an industry-wide compression standard for transporting ultra-high definition video streams across a single interface at high speed with no perceptible loss of visual quality. With DSC technology, the ROG monitor can display incredibly detailed and smooth visuals at native 4K resolution with a 144 Hz refresh rate via a single DisplayPort 1.4 connection without chroma subsampling, which can negatively affect visual fidelity.

Previously, to achieve this level of performance gaming monitors needed two DisplayPort connections to transfer the video signal from the PC, which also often required complex driver configuration and prevented display of high-dynamic-range (HDR) content and variable refresh rates while gaming. The ROG monitor eliminates these issues, supporting both HDR and variable refresh rates via a single DisplayPort 1.4 connection.
