The lineup includes the Taichi TCO27USA, the Taichi TCO27QXA, and the Taichi TCO27QXB. Each model targets different performance needs while maintaining a consistent 27-inch form factor. The TCO27USA uses a Penta Tandem OLED panel for color accuracy and brightness. The TCO27QXA relies on a QD-OLED panel for fast response times. The TCO27QXB utilizes a dual-mode Tandem WOLED panel to switch between resolutions and refresh rates.

  • Taichi TCO27USA Panel: 27-inch 4K Penta Tandem OLED, 240 Hz, 0.03 ms response, VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400, 99% DCI-P3, Delta E < 2
  • Taichi TCO27USA Connectivity: Dual DisplayPort 2.1 UHBR20, Dual HDMI 2.1 48G
  • Taichi TCO27QXA Panel: 27-inch QHD (2560×1440) QD-OLED, 500 Hz
  • Taichi TCO27QXB Panel: 27-inch Dual-mode Tandem WOLED, QHD 540 Hz / HD 720 Hz

The Taichi TCO27USA features a 4K resolution with a 240 Hz refresh rate and a 0.03 ms response time. It supports VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 and covers 99% of the DCI-P3 color space with Delta E less than 2. Connectivity includes dual DisplayPort 2.1 UHBR20 ports and dual HDMI 2.1 48G ports. The TCO27QXA offers a QHD resolution at a 500 Hz refresh rate using QD-OLED technology. The TCO27QXB supports 540 Hz at QHD and up to 720 Hz at HD resolution.

All three monitors support FreeSync Pro to reduce screen tearing during gameplay. The TCO27QXB can switch between QHD and HD resolutions to maximize its refresh rate capabilities. ASRock has not yet disclosed pricing or specific retail availability for any of these models. Buyers should expect high-end specifications but must wait for official release details before making purchasing decisions.

ASRock positions these monitors as its first entry into the flagship OLED gaming display market. The company aims to compete in the high-performance segment with varied panel technologies. The TCO27USA targets color-critical users who also want high refresh rates. The TCO27QXA and TCO27QXB cater to competitive gamers prioritizing speed. The lack of pricing information leaves the market positioning unclear until further announcements.
