Question about ROG Swift PG49WCD - 681392

Hello cz.woody!
True, the assumption about the part with the Asus logo is correct. It is the connector between the monitor and the VESA mount and is included with the monitor. I mounted this exact monitor on my desk via VESA. As for your questions about the monitor itself, it's a matter of taste. The fact is that this device is a gaming monitor. Point. My personal opinion is that it can be a stylish monitor for an office. The built-in KVM switch is definitely a feature that can make life on a PC (or several) easier. Ultimately, you have to find out for yourself whether the monitor is right for you and what you mainly want to use it for. I personally tried the monitor both for working on the PC and for gaming and I can't actually confirm the things you've heard. Under Windows 10 I didn't notice any discoloration of the font, no blurring in the native resolution or any other discrepancies. And the same applies to Linux too. My graphics card is a powerful RTX 4080 from Asus with the latest drivers. Things look a little different when it comes to gaming. The colors are sometimes quite exaggerated. It's all a question of the settings on the monitor. I'm still trying it out myself. If you still have doubts, you can watch product demonstrations and videos on YouTube on inet or you have a store nearby where the monitor is currently on display.

You have to buy them separately. I have run these and can recommend them 100%:

Neomounts Desk Mount 1 Ultra (desk, 49")

The thing holds great, you can adjust a lot of things & looks good.
I can also highly recommend the monitor! I'm VERY happy with it (mainly video games). The colours & black are awesome! But take the time to adjust everything on the monitor in the menu at the beginning and then adjust everything in Windows accordingly (resolution, HZ, G Sync etc.)

I hope I have been able to help you with this. Best wishes and have fun with it!
