Creators consider many factors when picking a display. Screen size, resolution, aspect ratio, connectivity, and ergonomic adjustments are all important elements, for creatives as for anyone else. But one key spec sets apart displays for creators from the competition: accuracy. For professional-quality work, you need to trust your display to perfectly paint each pixel. ProArt Displays are factory calibrated to achieve an average E value of less than 2if not lowergiving you confidence that youre seeing each hue correctly.

Increasingly, creators are looking for monitors that pair professional-level accuracy with high dynamic range (HDR) capabilities. The HDR ecosystem has matured, and consumers are eager for content that takes advantage of the inky shadows and dazzling highlights that their HDR TVs and monitors can produce. ASUS offers ProArt displays with the exceptional contrast, wide color gamut support, and factory calibrations that creators need to work in this new frontier of media.

ProArt displays also offer excellent coverage of a wide range of industry standard color gamutsand the tools you need to efficiently change color
spaces and make adjustments. The ProArt Preset tool, accessible through the on-screen display, lets you cycle through color space options to find the one that best fits your workflow. Through ProArt Palette, you can make fast adjustments to brightness, saturation, and hue, among othersan invaluable
tool for getting a consistent image across multiple monitors. The best ProArt displays for HDR workflows

For HDR content mastering, ultra-precise control and extreme contrast are essential. The ProArt Display PA32UCXR meets the needs of creatives working with HDR content with its exceptionally bright mini-LED backlighting. Its 2304-zone local dimming backlight can achieve a dazzling 1600-nit peak brightness. But it not only excels at reaching stratospheric levels of luminance, but also maintaining a high level of brightness with its industry-leading 1000 nits of full-screen sustained brightness. (Image

The ProArt Display PA32UCXR is a shining example of what the latest display tech can provide to even the most demanding of creators. It offers true
10-bit color with Quantum Dot technology, and it covers 99% of the Adobe RGB and 97% of the cinema-grade DCI-P3 color gamut. Its factory pre-calibrated to achieve an average E of less than one for supremely accurate colors. To maintain that professional-level accuracy over the long term, the PA32UCXR
has a built-in motorized flip colorimeter. This standalone self-calibration solution is compatible with any operating system and doesnt require
additional calibration software. You can use the OSD to schedule it at any time or even schedule a calibration during your off hours to avoid any delay to your productivity. (Image credit: ASUS ProArt)

ASUS Smart HDR technology ensures compatibility with existing streaming video services and a growing list of HDR-enabled games. The PA32UCXR supports multiple HDR metadata formats, including Dolby Vision,* HLG, and HDR10, so that you can check how content will appear for a wide range of target
displays before its sent off for final delivery.

Wide connectivity options make the ProArt Display PA32UCXR an easy addition
to any studio. With dual Thunderbolt 4 ports, DisplayPort 1.4, and two HDMI 2.0 ports, it offers broad compatibility with current and future devices. One of those Thunderbolt 4 ports offers up to 90W Power Delivery, making it easy for laptop users to set up a single-cable setup and its also ready to daisy-chain several displays through a single port.

Organic light-emitting diode (OLED) panel tech is also a natural fit for HDR content mastering. The ProArt Display OLED PA32DC s vivid OLED panel is
finely tuned to meet the needs of the creators working with HDR content. Unlike other OLED panels that use an RGBW or PenTile sub-pixel array, the PA32DC uses an RGB sub-pixel arrangement for the crispest on-screen images
and text. Its generous 31.5 diagonal gives you a close and careful look at your work, while its 38402160 resolution brings out all the fine detail in your creations. With its ultrafast response time (up to 0.1ms), its a natural fit for mastering fast-moving HDR content, as each pixel can rapidly transition to a new color without visible blur.

OLED panels are known for their excellent color reproduction, and the ProArt Display OLED PA32DC is stands at the top of its class in this regard. It offers true 10-bit color, and it covers 99% of the cinema-grade DCI-P3 color gamut. Its factory pre-calibrated to achieve an average E of less than one
for professional-grade color accuracy. Its built-in motorized colorimeter makes it easy to maintain that high level of accuracy. (Image credit: ASUS ProArt)

For the ultimate in HDR highlight reproduction across the broadest range of input sources, the ProArt Display PA32UCG-K stands ready. Thanks to an 1152-zone Mini-LED backlight with an incredible 1600 nit peak brightness rating and VESA DisplayHDR 1400 certification, this monitor simulates both light and dark with unparalleled realism, giving filmmakers and videographers a unique tool for recognizing their creative visions.

HDR is an increasingly common feature in games. Like other artists, game developers need accurate and reproducible color. Game developers also work with content that naturally includes higher refresh rates than the 24 FPS or 30 FPS typical of film and TV. Thanks to HDMI 2.1 inputs and variable refresh rates ranging from 48Hz to 120Hz, the PA32UCG-K lets game developers and
asset artists view their creations exactly as theyll be reproduced on modern consoles and gaming PCs.

The generative AI revolution is fully underway, and you might well be looking to upgrade your PC workstation to accelerate your AI creation efforts. Here are a few things to keep in mind as you select the best ProArt display for your PC. Start off with a high resolution. For a clear and detailed view of visual assets, we recommend a model with a high resolution and excellent
pixel density. A model with a 2560x1440 is a good starting point, but a display with a 4K Ultra HD resolution will be the better fit for many AI workflows. Insist on accurate colors and wide color gamut coverage. All
ProArt Displays are factory pre-calibrated for professional-grade color accuracy right out of the box, and youll find excellent coverage of industry-standard color gamuts like sRGB across the lineup. But your AI creation efforts may well require even more. Options with an embedded colorimeter, like the ProArt Display PA32UCXR , might be invaluable for your workflow, and if your projects require support for wide color gamuts like Adobe RGB or DCI-P3, we have many options at the ready. Get the connectivity you need. The standard DisplayPort and HDMI ports provided by ProArt displays make sure that you have broad compatibility at your fingertips. Select
options go further with fully loaded USB Type-C ports ready to accept a display signal, recharge the connected device, and act as a USB hub for your peripherals. These models are perfect for any creator who works primarily
from a laptop or any creator who wants to daisy-chain several displays with one cable. Dial in the right refresh rate. Every creator can appreciate the smooth animation that comes from a higher refresh rate, if only for the
smooth mouse cursor movement and better clarity when scrolling through a document or a webpage. But for game developers, animators, visual FX designers, and other creative professionals, a smooth refresh rate of 120Hz
or higher is essential. The 120Hz ProArt Display PA348CGV adds the formula with FreeSync Premium Pro for tear-free animation and a 2ms response time (GTG) for minimized blur. Take care of your eyes. Look for features that diminish eye strain and fatigue even when you need to put in long hours on a project. ASUS Eye Care features, like flicker-free technology and blue light filtering, make it comfortable to use ProArt Displays for a full day of work. (Image credit: ASUS ProArt)

AI creation.
