Asus Unveils ROG Strix XG129C Secondary Touchscreen Display
Asus has announced the ROG Strix XG129C, a new 12.3-inch touchscreen IPS display designed to serve as a secondary monitor for gaming and productivity setups. Positioned as a compact sidekick to primary screens, the device features a 720p resolution and covers 125 percent of the sRGB and 90 percent of the DCI-P3 color gamuts. The XG129C directly competes with Corsair’s larger 14.5-inch Xeneon Edge and aims to capture market share from Elgato’s Stream Deck by offering hardware monitoring capabilities via a bundled one-year subscription to AIDA64 Extreme. This utility allows users to track PC performance metrics or manage streaming workflows efficiently. Alongside this secondary display, Asus also revealed the ROG Strix OLED XG34WCDMS, a high-end 34-inch QD-OLED gaming monitor with a 280Hz refresh rate and 3440 x 1440p resolution. While technical specifications for both products have been detailed, Asus has not yet disclosed official pricing or release dates. The announcement highlights Asus's continued expansion into specialized peripheral markets, targeting enthusiasts who require additional screen real estate for multitasking, content creation, and system monitoring within their existing desktop environments.
