[LCD Monitor] ROG Swift PG35VQ – Optional Firmware Update

A. ROG Swift PG35VQ may flicker infrequently and show vertical lines while it displays graphics in certain games. We have found that this issue is due to the LCD panel sensitivity with certain colored patterns. ASUS has resolved this issue in the latest firmware update, which is available to download as an update utility at the end of December 2019.

Serial numbers of ROG Swift PG35VQ monitors which start with 'K6,' 'K7,' 'K8,' 'K9', 'KA' or 'KB' (e.g., K6LMQS002053, ) are eligible for this update.
