Asus’s new ProArt OLED PA27USD comes with a rare 12G SDI port

Asus has taken the wraps off its latest high-end professional display at the IBC 2025 trade show in Amsterdam. The new ProArt OLED PA27USD is a 27-inch monitor that combines a 4K QD-OLED panel with a suite of professional-grade features and connectivity, designed for content creators, video editors, and colour-critical work.

The new ProArt monitor (via Guru3D) features a 27-inch 4K QD-OLED panel that promises top-tier colour performance, with a claimed 99% coverage of the DCI-P3 colour gamut and true 10-bit colour depth. For professionals who demand accuracy right out of the box, each monitor is factory pre-calibrated to a Delta E value of less than one. The monitor also comes with a built-in colourimeter that supports automatic hardware calibration and is compatible with the major professional calibration suites from Calman and Light Illusion ColourSpace CMS. It supports multiple HDR formats, including HDR10 and HLG, with a peak brightness of 1000 nits.

What really sets the PA27USD apart from consumer displays is its I/O. In a move that will please video production professionals, Asus has included a 12G SDI input, a high-end connection rarely seen outside of dedicated and high-end production monitors. This is complemented by a Thunderbolt 4 port that provides video input and 96W of power delivery, as well as a second Thunderbolt 4 output for easy daisy-chaining of other devices. A built-in USB hub and standard HDMI ports are also included.

The monitor also comes with a fully flexible stand offering a choice of two different mounting options for optimal positioning, and an included screen hood helps to reduce reflections from ambient light.

KitGuru says: With such a feature set, the ProArt OLED PA27USD will likely be a bit too expensive for the majority of users. However, this same majority probably wouldn't need most of the features this monitor has.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
