ASUS today announced late-August availability of ProArt Display PA32QCV, a professional-grade 32-inch 6K (6016 x 3384) display designed for content creators. PA32QCV offers Delta E<2 color accuracy, 98% DCI-P3 gamut, and 218 pixels per inch (ppi) for stunning visuals. Each display is individually calibrated at the factory and Calman Verified to ensure exceptional and consistent color accuracy - vital for color-critical work.

PA32QCV also includes Mac-friendly features including a new M Model-P3 color preset to ensure consistent colors on macOS devices. Plus, ASUS DisplayWidget Center is now available for macOS, enabling convenient control of any ProArt display. Other features include built-in Auto KVM for effortless switching between two connected laptops or PCs with a single keyboard and mouse, as well as extensive connectivity including dual Thunderbolt 4 with 96-watt Power Delivery, DisplayPort, HDMI, and a USB hub. PA32QCV will be available for US$1299.



ProArt Display 5K PA27JCV has already earned global recognition by winning the TIPA World Award 2025 for Best Professional Photo/Video Monitor and the EHA Award for Best Professional Monitor. These accolades highlight ASUS's commitment to empowering creative professionals.

Exceptional 6K HDR visuals
The 6K HDR (6016 x 3384) panel of PA32QCV boasts a pixel density of 218ppi - more than 3.1 times that of a 32-inch FHD display. The high pixel density means text is sharp and easy to read, while enhanced visual clarity offers significant advantages for creators engaged in detailed projects. HDR10 and VESA DisplayHDR 600 compatibility ensure the brightest whites and darkest black hues for exceptional contrast that results in rich, lifelike imagery with fidelity that helps artists fully realize their creative visions. PA32QCV provides 145% more workspace than a 4K monitor of the same size. The larger canvas allows creators to effortlessly navigate through creative content.

Ideal for Mac users
ProArt Display 6K PA32QCV combines professional-grade performance with sleek design and Mac-tested compatibility. Offering vibrant colors and versatile connectivity, it's ideal for Mac users seeking exceptional color accuracy and unmatched productivity. The high-PPI-count panel ensures stunning high-resolution visuals for enhanced clarity across an expansive workspace, while the new M Model-P3 Preset aligns ProArt Display colors with macOS devices. Plus, ASUS DisplayWidget Center for macOS enables easy monitor adjustments with a mouse, including brightness, contrast, color temperature, and more. PA32QCV works seamlessly with MacBook and users can even use the MacBook brightness button to adjust the monitor's luminosity.

Superb color accuracy
ProArt Display PA32QCV boasts 98% DCI-P3 and 100% sRGB color coverage. In addition, 10-bit color depth enables the monitor to showcase more than 1.07 billion onscreen colors to bring out the finest details in photos.

Because professional creators rely on color-accurate displays to ensure that their creations look exactly as intended, each ProArt display is calibrated in the factory to meet Calman Verified standards and to achieve Delta E<2 color accuracy.

PA32QCV is also equipped with ASUS Light Sync technology, featuring two sensors designed to ensure remarkably bright visuals and accurate color temperature. A backlight sensor automatically brightens the screen on startup, ensuring bright imagery and reliable color performance. An ambient light sensor automatically adjusts the monitor's color gamut based on ambient lighting, for true colors in any environment.

In addition, the PA32QCV features LuxPixel technology. LuxPixel is an anti-glare, low-reflection (AGLR) coating that provides a paper-like screen effect. Unlike traditional matte panels which often show softer images, LuxPixel technology minimizes reflections to ensure the user only sees accurate colors and sharp details.

Streamlined productivity
The built-in Auto KVM allows PA32QCV users to effortlessly switch between and control two connected laptops or PCs with a single keyboard and mouse, enabling easier multitasking.

The dual Thunderbolt 4 ports of PA32QCV enable superfast data transfers, DisplayPort connectivity, and 96-watt Power Delivery to charge laptops and other devices - all via a single cable. PA32QCV also serves as a USB hub: any device connected to the monitor's USB ports gains access to other connected peripherals.

In addition to Thunderbolt 4, PA32QCV offers a myriad of connectivity options, including HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4 DSC, USB Type-A, and an additional USB-C downstream port for compatibility with a wide range of devices. PA32QCV also includes a passthrough port for headphones.

Free Adobe Creative Cloud subscription
ASUS has partnered with Adobe to empower creative workflows with the renowned Creative Cloud suite of apps and services. In select regions, customers who purchase eligible ASUS products can receive a complimentary three-month or one-month subscription to Adobe Creative Cloud, Adobe Substance 3D and Adobe Acrobat (up to a US$488.97 value). The Creative Cloud subscription can be applied to a new or existing account and can be redeemed via the registration site.

Nice! Finally 32" start to move beyond 4K in more sensible price segments.
 
Not sure if its thunderbolt but that asking price seems quite a bit high for 60hz 4k monitor these days.
It's 6016 x 3384 though...
 
It's 6016 x 3384 though...
That's seriously weird. Like, 5k makes sense, so you can edit 4k video at native rez (which is why apple did it) but 6k? What is the use case?
 
I assume the graphics drivers will snap the resolution down to 6000x3350? 6000 pixels wide makes sense for 24MP images. Sounds like in the near future we'll start getting more native 6K monitors. Sounds like 24MP is going to be obsolete pretty soon... Glad I've got 42MP but still that's only ~7968x5320. Heck I need 10-bit color....
 
It seems the thinking behind the 6K resolution is so that you can use it at 200% scaling, which results in 3008 x 1692, that turns out to be ~108 PPI, which is almost the same as a 27" at 2560x1440 (108.8 PPI) (but with much better clarity obviously).

So that 200% fits Mac users, since they need exact scaling. And then anyone else who wants more stuff on their screen (running Windows I guess), can use it with lower scaling like 175% or even 150%.

For example at 150% scaling, this will result in 4011 x 2256 at ~144PPI, which is a tiny bit more density than a 31.5" at 4K (UHD) at 100% (140 PPI)
 
Now that price makes sense, quite an odd resolution. Wondering who is making that panel.
Same resolution as Apple's Pro Display XDR, which is US$4,999 without a stand or mount...
So three of these plus a grand plus in change or one of those?

Yes it is.

Thunderbolt certification is expensive, but it's very sensibly priced overall.

Nice! If matrix is as good as old 4K version (I'm writing this on) then it'll be fabulous for color accuracy, crispness and some gaming on the side. Finally something above 4K.
