ASUS ROG used Gamescom 2026 to announce a new stack of esports hardware, headlined by the ROG Swift OLED PG259QWS Ace, a 24.5-inch 720Hz OLED monitor it calls the fastest ever made.
The Swift OLED PG259QWS Ace pairs its 720Hz panel with a 0.02ms response time and a TrueBlack Glossy Tandem WOLED display, plus a built-in position sensor that shows tilt, height and swivel angles on screen for reproducible setups. It has already been named the official esports monitor of the 2026 PGL CS2 Major.
“A stage this historic deserves a display to match. The first OLED Major on the fastest OLED ever made — it’s a new generation of competitive Counter-Strike.”
Silviu Stroie, CEO, PGL
The rest of the Ace line-up
Two more 24.5-inch OLED options round out the esports range: the Strix OLED XG259QDPG Ace at 560Hz and the XG259QDNS Ace at 360Hz, both with BlackShield Film and anti-glare coatings. ROG also showed 27-inch triple-mode panels — the XG27UCMG, billed as the world’s first 4K triple-mode monitor (4K at 240Hz, QHD at 400Hz or FHD at 488Hz), and the XG27ACNS (QHD at 475Hz or HD at 920Hz).
Peripherals include the ROG Gladius IV Ace mouse (56g, 65K sensor, true 8K wireless), the Spatha X 65K MMO mouse, the Strix Morph 96 X Wireless keyboard and the TUF Gaming K4 Magnetic. For the network, the ROG Rapture GT-BN98 claims to be the world’s first WiFi 8 gaming router, with quad-band throughput up to 25,000Mbps and dual 10G ports.
The special editions are the crowd-pleasers: a TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9070 XT Onimusha Special Edition built with AMD and CAPCOM, and T1-branded GeForce RTX 5070 and 5060 Ti cards for the League of Legends champions.
