ProArt PA27JCV 27" 5K HDR Monitor - 99% DCI-P3, Delta E2, Auto KVM, USB-C 96W PD

A 27-inch panel delivering genuine 5K resolution at £279.99 is the headline, but the more interesting story is what sits alongside it: a single USB-C cable that pushes 96W of power delivery while carrying 5K video, data, and KVM switching simultaneously. For anyone running a MacBook or a high-end laptop as their primary machine, that means one cable in, everything works — including sharing a keyboard and mouse across two connected computers without a separate switch box.

Who Is This For?

This monitor is built for creative professionals who need accurate colour for photo editing, video grading, or design work — the 99% DCI-P3 coverage and Delta E2 factory calibration mean what you see genuinely reflects what you'll output, which cheaper panels simply cannot claim. The Auto KVM is a genuine productivity tool for anyone hot-desking between a work laptop and a personal machine. If you're a casual user who browses and streams, this is engineering you won't use and will overpay for — a 4K IPS panel at half the price would serve you better.

What Buyers Say

Owners of ASUS ProArt monitors consistently praise the out-of-box colour accuracy, noting it removes the need for third-party calibration hardware on day one. The build quality — particularly the sturdy, fully adjustable arm — gets repeated mentions. The most common frustration with this class of ProArt display is the OSD menu, which owners find unintuitive and slow to navigate, and a small number report the USB-C KVM switching can be inconsistent depending on the host laptop's firmware.

The Deal

At £279.99, reduced from £379.99, you're saving £100 — a 26% reduction. Because this product is newly tracked on our site, we have no historical price data to confirm whether £379.99 is a genuine long-term retail price or an inflated baseline, so treat the "was" figure with appropriate scepticism and cross-reference against our monitor deals guide before committing. If the price checks out elsewhere, this is compelling value for 5K colour-accurate work — but verify before you buy.
