It supports a dual mode that allows you to freely switch between a high resolution of 5K (5,120 x 2,880) / 180 Hz and a high refresh rate of WQHD (2,560 x 1,440) / 330 Hz.

The ROG Strix 5K XG27JCG uses a 27-inch display, but the screen size can be changed from the monitor. The Japanese translation is a little suspect, but if you select the 24.5" simulation...
The display area is now one size smaller! You can play action games on a large screen with high resolution, and concentrate on shooting games on a 24.5" monitor with high refresh rate.......
The stand that comes with the ROG Strix 5K XG27JCG has a low-profile base and is hardly an obstacle on the desk. I touched it thoroughly, and it seems to have no problem with strength.
The main unit weighs 4.8 kg (6.9 kg including the stand), which is comparable to high-end models from other companies. I was slightly prepared for the 5K weight, but I was betrayed in a good way.

Left to right is 40 degrees to minus 40 degrees, up and down is 20 degrees to minus 5 degrees, and rotation is 90 degrees to minus 90 degrees.
Ports are USB-C, DisplayPort 1.4, and HDMI 2.1 (x2). A cover is also included for smart cabling of the back of the monitor, which tends to get cluttered.
