ASRock Enters Monitor Market With Three Taichi OLED Models
A motherboard brand entering monitors through its flagship Taichi line puts ASRock into a crowded premium display segment where panel certification and refresh rate, not brand history, decide the sale.
Reporting from 1 source: ASCII.jp.
ASRock announced three 27-inch OLED monitors under its flagship Taichi brand: the TCO27USA, TCO27QXA, and TCO27QXB. The models split between 4K at 240Hz, QHD at 500Hz, and a QHD 540Hz panel that switches to HD 720Hz. All three share AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, KVM, USB Type-C with 65W Power Delivery, HDMI 2.1, and DisplayPort 2.1.
The three models are separated by panel and refresh rate rather than by features. The TCO27USA carries a 27-inch 4K Penta Tandem OLED panel at 240Hz and VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 certification. The TCO27QXA uses a QHD QD-OLED panel at 500Hz with True Black 500 certification. The TCO27QXB pairs a Tandem WOLED panel with dual-mode operation, switching between QHD at 540Hz and HD at 720Hz.
ASRock lists higher brightness, improved power efficiency, and longer lifespan as common to the lineup, along with Taichi's lighting design and factory calibration. Connectivity covers USB Type-C with up to 65W Power Delivery, HDMI 2.1, and DisplayPort 2.1.
- TCO27USA: 27-inch 4K UHD Penta Tandem OLED at 240Hz, VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400
