ASUS OLED Care

Improved custom heatsink and
additional thermal pad

The Swift OLED PG49WCD features a unique custom heatsink design that maximizes heat dissipation by utilizing a highly compact layout, allowing for a larger space dedicated to cooling. Additionally, a thermal pad is placed on the panel to effectively cool down the monitor. The monitor's innovative back-cover design also incorporates vent holes on the top, enhancing the efficiency of heat dissipation and effectively removing heat from the system to reduce the risk of burn-in.


Graphene film panel

The Swift OLED PG49WCD comes with graphene film behind the QD-OLED panel to keep operating temperatures down. Graphene is the thinnest and strongest nanomaterial in the world, and has high thermal conductivity to help effectively dissipate heat.
