Gigabyte Announces Four Gaming Monitors Featuring 4th-Generation Tandem WOLED

Gigabyte has announced four new gaming monitors under the Aorus Elite brand for Computex 2026. The lineup includes monitors ranging from 27 to 32 inches, with three models featuring 4th-generation Tandem WOLED technology and one equipped with Mini LED backlighting. Boasting a maximum refresh rate of 480Hz and support for 5K resolution, these high-performance monitors are poised to attract gamers’ attention.

What is 4th-Generation Tandem WOLED?

The 4th-generation Tandem WOLED featured in these monitors employs a tandem structure with multiple organic light-emitting layers stacked together. This innovative design improves both the color gamut and peak brightness compared to traditional WOLED displays. While the Tandem structure gained recognition with its adoption in Apple’s iPad Pro, it remains relatively rare in gaming monitors. By integrating this technology into the Aorus Elite series, Gigabyte aims to deliver a balance of brightness and color accuracy.

32-Inch Dual-Mode Monitor FO32U24GP

The 32-inch FO32U24GP model is equipped with a dual-mode 4K panel. While its native refresh rate is 240Hz, it can be increased to 480Hz by switching the resolution to 1080p. This design allows gamers to toggle between 1080p at 480Hz for fast-paced FPS games and 4K at 240Hz for cinematic single-player games or video editing.

The monitor boasts a response time of 0.03ms, 99.5% DCI-P3 color gamut coverage, and a peak brightness of 1,500 nits. It is equipped with DisplayPort 2.1 (UHBR20) and HDMI 2.1 (eARC support) ports. The UHBR20 port, with its bandwidth of 80Gbps, is particularly advantageous when paired with Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 50 series, allowing the monitor to fully utilize the GPU’s capabilities.

Gigabyte has also integrated its proprietary Tactical Features into this monitor. For instance, the Tactical Crosshair dynamically changes the crosshair’s color from green to red based on the screen’s background, enhancing in-game visibility. Additionally, tools like adaptive light control and burn-in prevention are included to extend the lifespan of the OLED panel.

Cost-Optimized Model FO32U24G

The FO32U24G is another 32-inch WOLED model introduced alongside the FO32U24GP. It serves as a more cost-effective option, with the only notable difference being the absence of UHBR20 support. This means it cannot utilize the 80Gbps bandwidth required for certain Nvidia GeForce RTX 50 series features. However, the two models share the same core specifications, including DisplayPort 2.1 and HDMI 2.1 (eARC). This model is designed for users seeking the benefits of WOLED visuals at a more affordable price point.

27-Inch Model FO27Q28G

The 27-inch FO27Q28G also features 4th-generation Tandem WOLED technology, offering 99.5% DCI-P3 color gamut coverage, a response time of 0.03ms, and a peak brightness of 1,500 nits, comparable to the 32-inch models.

However, this model does not include dual-mode functionality. Its panel resolution is fixed at 2560×1440 (QHD) with a refresh rate of 280Hz. This monitor is targeted at gamers who prefer a more compact size or have limited desk space.

Mini LED Model with Tri-Mode Support: FM275K16P

The most unique model in the lineup is the FM275K16P, which features Mini LED backlighting instead of WOLED and supports tri-mode (three-stage switching) functionality.

The monitor offers native 5K resolution at 165Hz (180Hz with overclocking), 4K resolution at 220Hz, and QHD resolution at 330Hz. This tri-mode design allows for versatile use across scenarios such as video editing, eSports, and everyday tasks.

The Mini LED backlighting includes 2,304 local dimming zones and achieves a peak HDR brightness of 1,250 nits. Like the other models, it also covers 99.5% of the DCI-P3 color gamut. The monitor is equipped with HDMI 2.1 (eARC support) and full-spec DisplayPort 2.1 with UHBR20, enabling high-bandwidth connections.

Compared to the WOLED models, the Mini LED display may not match their peak brightness and contrast levels. However, it offers the advantage of being free from burn-in issues, making it suitable for environments where static images are displayed for extended periods.

The Future of Gaming Monitors with Aorus

Elite Series

One of the key highlights of the new Aorus Elite lineup is the increasing prevalence of “mode switching” features that allow users to toggle between resolutions and refresh rates. While high-refresh-rate monitors with fixed resolutions were once the norm, advancements in hardware and the growing diversity of user needs have shifted the industry toward more versatile designs.

The FO32U24GP, with its ability to switch between 4K@240Hz and 1080p@480Hz, is likely to attract attention as a solution catering to both competitive gamers and content creators. Meanwhile, the FM275K16P’s tri-mode feature takes this concept even further.

Although Gigabyte showcased these products at Computex 2026, specific pricing and release dates have not yet been announced. With 4th-generation Tandem WOLED and Mini LED technology at the core, combined with enhanced mode-switching capabilities, the new Aorus Elite lineup is poised to make a significant impact on the market.
