Asus expands PH creator hardware lineup with 8K monitor, RTX 50-series GPUs

Asus has expanded its ProArt lineup in the Philippines with new professional monitors, GeForce RTX 50-series graphics cards, creator-focused motherboards, and laptops targeting photographers, filmmakers, video editors, designers, and AI developers.

The company showcased the devices at its ProArt Creator Connect event in Pasig City, demonstrating workflows involving photography, filmmaking, color grading, post-production, and fine art.

Among the new displays are the 26.5-inch ProArt Display OLED PA279CDV and 31.5-inch PA329CDV, which use 4K QD-OLED panels with up to 1,000 nits of peak brightness, 99% DCI-P3 color coverage, true 10-bit color, and factory calibration to Delta E below 1.5.

For color-critical studio and broadcast work, the 31.5-inch ProArt Display OLED PA32DC comes with a built-in motorized flip colorimeter for automated calibration. Its 4K HDR pure RGB stripe OLED panel covers 99% of the DCI-P3 color gamut.

The 31.5-inch PA32UCE and 27-inch PA27UCGE also have integrated motorized colorimeters, 4K HDR resolution, 98% DCI-P3 coverage, 600-nit brightness, and Delta E below 1 color accuracy. Both support HLG and HDR10, as well as USB-C connections with up to 96W power delivery.

At the high end of the display range is the ProArt Display PA32KCX, a 32-inch 8K HDR mini-LED monitor equipped with 4,032 local dimming zones, up to 1,200 nits of peak brightness, Delta E below 1 accuracy, and an integrated motorized colorimeter.

Asus is also offering the 31.5-inch 6K PA32QCV and 27-inch 5K PA27JCV. Both are Calman-verified and support 96W USB-C power delivery.

The PA32QCV includes dual Thunderbolt 4 ports with daisy-chaining, while the PA27JCV features Auto KVM switching, 99% DCI-P3 coverage, and ambient light sensors.

Other models include the 34.1-inch ultrawide PA34VCNV, 27-inch PA279CRV, and 23.8-inch PA249CGV. The PA34VCNV has a 21:9 curved display and built-in Ethernet docking, while the PA249CGV combines 95% DCI-P3 coverage with a 144Hz variable refresh rate.

The OLED models use Asus OLED Care technologies including pixel shifting, sensor monitoring, screen savers, and static-image detection to reduce the risk of burn-in. A proximity sensor can also dim the display when the user moves away.

For GPU-intensive creative and AI workloads, Asus showcased its ProArt GeForce RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 graphics cards. The cards provide up to 3,352 TOPS of AI performance and up to 32GB of GDDR7 memory, with support for Nvidia technologies including DLSS 5, Multi Frame Generation, and Ray Reconstruction.

The ProArt RTX 5090 uses a 2.5-slot design intended to make the card suitable for compact workstations and multi-GPU configurations. Cooling hardware includes a vapor chamber, liquid-metal thermal compound, 115mm Axial-tech fans, and a double-vented backplate.

Asus said the cooling design provides around 11% higher cooling efficiency while occupying a 27% smaller footprint compared with single-flow designs. The cards also include a USB Type-C port for direct connections to compatible portable monitors and displays.

The company’s ProArt motherboards, meanwhile, support DDR5 memory and up to two PCIe 5.0 x16 slots operating in an x8/x8 configuration for dual-GPU systems. They also provide four onboard M.2 slots, including two supporting PCIe 5.0 speeds.

Connectivity includes Marvell AQtion 10Gb Ethernet, Intel 2.5Gb Ethernet, Wi-Fi 7, two USB4 ports, and a front-panel USB 20Gbps header with 30W Power Delivery 3.0 and Quick Charge 4+.

Asus also highlighted its ProArt P16, ProArt PX13, and ProArt GoPro Edition laptops, which were introduced in April.

The ProArt P16 supports 10-bit 4:2:2 video workflows for multi-track 4K and 8K playback and uses an Asus Lumina Pro OLED display.

The 13.3-inch ProArt PX13 convertible is powered by an AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 processor with a 50-TOPS neural processing unit and up to 32GB of unified memory.

It also comes with ProArt Creator Hub, the StoryCube media-management application, a dedicated Copilot key, and a 360-degree convertible design.

The ProArt GoPro Edition adds features aimed at action-camera users, including GoPro-inspired styling, a protective sleeve, customizable packaging for cameras and accessories, and StoryCube support for 360-degree GoPro footage.

StoryCube uses AI recognition for functions including cloud synchronization, sorting, and tagging, while a dedicated GoPro Hotkey launches GoPro Player.

Prices for the ProArt monitors range from P16,000 for the PA249CGV to P550,000 for the PA32KCX 8K display. The PA279CRV costs P41,000, PA34VCNV P46,000, PA27JCV and PA27UCGE P55,000 each, OLED PA279CDV P58,000, PA32UCE P65,000, OLED PA329CDV P69,000, and PA32QCV P88,000.

The ProArt RTX 5090 is priced at P332,200, while the RTX 5080 costs P134,960 and the RTX 5070 Ti P104,230.

ProArt motherboards are priced at P41,170 for the Z890-Creator WiFi, P36,060 for the X870E-Creator WiFi, and P20,120 for the B850-Creator WiFi Neo.
