In order to see as much as possible while gaming, many players used multiple monitors for a long time. But with ultra-wide models like the Asus ROG Swift OLED PG49WCD at rock-bottom prices, that’s over.
This is how good the offer is: Launched just over a year ago for a whopping recommended retail price of 1,799 euros, the very well-rated Asus ROG Swift OLED PG49WCD is now available over 500 euros cheaper at Galaxus, on Amazon’s Marketplace as well as in limited offer at Alternate.

The huge 49-inch model in the ultra-wide 32:9 format with a curved 1800R display has never been available this cheaply before, according to comparison sites, and other retailers sometimes charge significantly more for the high-end monitor from Asus.

This is what the monitor offers: With 5,120 × 1,440 pixels, the Asus ROG Swift OLED PG49WCD requires a lot of GPU computing power in games and, at around 119.6 × 52.7 × 28.3 millimeters (W × H × D), is not for every desk, even with the compressed base something.
The large screen area with a peak brightness of up to 1,000 cd/m² thanks to the colorful OLED panel and quantum dot layer offers some of the best image quality that can currently be offered, including a 144 Hertz refresh rate and 0.3 millisecond response time.
Also on board are AMD FreeSync and NVIDIA G-Sync compatibility for image synchronization as well as VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 certification. There is also lighting on the back and all sorts of connections. You can also find further details at Galaxus.
The Asus ROG Swift OLED PG49WCD is that good
Reviews and tests: In 25 reviews at Galaxus, the monitor received an average of 4.4 out of 5 stars and received hardly any criticism apart from the high price. In the specialist test at Tom’s Hardware in April of this year, it received 4.5 out of 5 stars for the “most colorful OLED to date”.
Despite a lower refresh rate than other 21:9 and 32:9 OLEDs, the Asus ROG Swift PG49WCD has everything you could want in a gaming and productivity monitor. It delivers a breathtaking picture and replaces two 27-inch screens in 16:9 format.
