Gigabyte has revealed technical details for its new Aorus Elite gaming monitor series, focusing on AI-driven visual optimisation, upgraded OLED protection, and new “tactical” features.

The Aorus Elite lineup integrates AI-powered technologies like AI Picture Mode, which automatically adjusts SDR content settings based on usage scenarios. According to Gigabyte, its HyperNits feature enhances HDR brightness by up to 30% in high-APL scenes without overexposing highlights. Furthermore, the FM275K16P 5K Mini LED model exclusively features AI Super Resolution to sharpen clarity through upscaling.

For its OLED displays, the company updated its AI OLED Care Pro suite to include AI sensors that monitor pixel cleaning, ambient lighting, and user presence. This system works alongside a new thermal design with integrated heat pipes. Gigabyte claims the FO27Q28G model achieves a 12% reduction in T-Con temperature, a 5% lower peak surface temperature, and up to 35% better temperature uniformity compared to rival flagship models. To back this up, Gigabyte is extending the burn-in warranty for its newer OLED monitors from three years to four years.

Gamers also get new AI-powered features, including a custom HUD with adjustable transparency and a crosshair that switches between red and green to maintain visibility against changing backgrounds. These additions join existing features such as Tactical Switch 2.0, Night Vision, and Black Equalizer.

KitGuru says: The extended 4-year burn-in warranty is a sign that OLED burn-in is becoming much less of an issue than it was in the past. Hopefully, other brands will follow Gigabyte's new warranty policy for their OLED monitors.

Gigabyte has announced its new Aorus Elite gaming monitor lineup, featuring a mix of fourth-generation Tandem OLED panels and a 5K Multi Mode Mini LED display. The new series spans 27-inch to 32-inch models, incorporating high-bandwidth DisplayPort 2.1 connectivity alongside automated panel protection features.

The headliner here is the 27-inch 5K Mini LED glossy monitor, which delivers 218 PPI and uses 2304 local dimming zones. The FM275K16P also features Multi Mode support, so you can switch between 5K 165Hz, 4K 220Hz, and QHD 330Hz configurations. Gigabyte also included its AI Super Resolution upscaling technology to sharpen image clarity.

OLED options feature Tandem OLED technology paired with a RealBlack Glossy surface, delivering a peak HDR brightness of 1500 nits. The FO32U24GP model supports Dual Mode functionality and offers full-bandwidth DP 2.1 UHBR20 connectivity at 80Gbps. The FO27Q28G has a higher base refresh rate at 280Hz instead.

As you would expect from a current OLED monitor, Gigabyte has included a suite of OLED Care features to run background pixel cleaning and ensure uniform brightness across the panel over long periods.

KitGuru says: Are you thinking of making the jump to an OLED monitor this year?
