4K gaming just peaked - OLED PG32UCDM

[@bobkerman670]

As a person who hasn't really kept up with the monitor market, feels like monitor technology has absolutely skyrocketed in a small time. Awesome vid always.

[@kylelang9878]

I know it seems that way, but we've had massive OLED panels with 120Hz refresh rates for several years in the TV space. This is just the market responding to the increased demand for high-end monitors in the PC/gaming space.

because PC monitor market was stagnant for a very long time, hell even midrange smartphones from 6+ years ago had OLED screens

Oled tvs have been a thing for years, people have just been waiting for them to hit the monitor market but since tvs are more profitable than gaming monitors it takes time. My IPS is shit when it's nighttime in DayZ, i wish i had a OLED....

[@ZeroDividesByYOU]

​@@perspectiveandthinking4k and UHD are the same descriptor. Ultra High Definition was literally designed to be the "mainstream" term for 4k resolution panels. Also, the bleeding edge is ALWAYS a bad value for the money. But you don't make progress and make cheaper versions of the better things without first making the better things. Plus, plenty of people can tell a difference between 1440p and 4k at 32 inches. I could probably easily do it, given I'm incredibly used to my 1440p panels. You have no clue what you're talking about.

[@perspectiveandthinking]

@ZeroDividesByYOU if you're telling me I have no clue, then google it yourself. As I said: most people can't tell a difference. Are you most people? Lol. 8k n more is completely useless for the most people n always will be. Live with it and it looks like it's increasingly distancing people like you from reality the "better" your monitor gets. Even if the mainstream use it synonym (because mainstream mostly just repeats things and knows nothing by itself): 4k n UHD are technically not the same.

[@ZeroDividesByYOU]

@@perspectiveandthinking Why do you care about "most people?" If you can see a difference, as I can, then it doesn't matter what most people can or can't see. It's a change regardless. Who said anything about 8k? That's not what any of this was about in the first place. You are wrong on that account too about UHD. UHD encompasses both 4k and 8k tech. UHD was also originally introduced alongside the rise of 4k TVs, so yes, you don't know what you're talking about. Nowhere did I say that 8k was practical or meaningful. You seem to have your own opinions contrary to most people that play games regarding new advanced technology. That's fine, I won't comment on that. You're free to have opinions, even if they're dumb

32inch at 4k is actually one of the perfect monitor size for me, the reason why it took me this long to get one (I got the MSI version of this same panel) is that there isn't any good option that don't compromised in one way or another, its either 1440p high refresh, 4k at 60hz or 4k high refresh with poor contrast/IPS glow/black light bleed, there are MiniLed version of the same spec but a lot of them don't tune LD well or cost a fortune(3k usd and up).

my only thing about an OLED option was the less bright scenario which you cant really get around, oled is way better colours but you won't get real bright colours, I don't get why they are pushing monitors above 240Hz since the human eye cant even get 240hz. 144 hz is plenty enough also 0.3 ms, so the 480hz monitors are nothing but a gimmick imo. Im still using my awsome 27 inch PG27UQ hdr 144hz and really since my new setup im only just now making the most out of this monitor with my 4090 OC 13900KS CPU.

I heard the WOLEDs are Matte panels, so that should already tell you they're going to be worse.

@@ShiroNoFune we:ve had matte panels for years. Stop jumping on the hate bandwagon. Yes. When conparing matte coating vs glossy, they are worse. But that doesnt mean bad. 10 years ago, gaming monitors were glossy, and gamers were angry at not getting anti gloss. Only premium photo panels got that and office panels. My photomonitor fron 2011 is matte. My gaming monitor from 2017 is matte. Glossy is just the new buzzword as matte was back then. And matte coatings today will most likely be much better than 5 years ago. But again, glossy will be better for sure. But matte wont be bad.

Some of the features have been left out on games because it didn't seem plausible to have it ever come to monitors for affordable price.

Ironically, 240Hz on 4K actually looks worse than 240Hz on 2K, because since the pixels are smaller on 4K, the speed of things at that refresh rate don't travel physically as far in the same timeframe, making 4K at 240Hz actually less smooth because it has to skip more pixels for the pixel changes to travel the same distance. That's even if both screens are the same size, and it gets even worse if the 4K screen is even bigger than the 2K screen.

Have been looking forward to this monitor since it was announced last August, I'll be hoping to get one as soon as it comes to Europe. Just ticks all the boxes for me

[@amrfawzi7530]

man why are you like fully cracked on overwatch lol. i cant fully concentrate about what youre talking about when youre deleting players like that.

[@GirtsApskrums]

Have you tried the crop mode of 24 inch on this? You said that 32 inches are not what You are used to but 24 or 27 inch built in crop mode would deal with that.

I've had 4 OLED screens, Samsung, LG and the latest is the 240hz 27-inch from Asus. One thing is constant with OLED screens: burn-in. It's literally the best screen technology in terms of color, fluidity, just OLED screens are extremely pleasant out of the box, but buying an OLED screen means buying a screen that will only last a few months, and that's the problem with tests that aren't done long enough over time. Burn-in is caused by a static image that lasts too long, and there are technologies included in the screens and techniques of use to avoid the problem, but they prove to be totally useless. The simple fact that game ATHs are static can cause the problem, and I've had it on literally every screen I've owned. I strongly advise against buying an OLED screen, I don't think these screens should even be named as GAMING. If you play several hours a day, your screens won't last long. I've since switched to a Samsung VA panel for solo gaming and a TN Zowie panel for competitive, I'm really disappointed with OLED screens I hope these problems will be solved one day.

[@rcdarkangel]

If you're burning every OLED out you own in 3-4 months you'd literally have to be the unluckiest human being alive. A literal walking anomaly. I've got multiple OLED's, only a single one got burn in, and it was from a known generation of bad hardware, and was ironically, my least used panel. I've got WOLEDS now with 1000's of hours of gaming/windows mixed usage and no burn in. And shit, I don't even look after it.

[@Vaatrix]

@@rcdarkangel I was told a similar thing on Reddit, but I'm not the only one in this case even with the latest generation screens. It seems quite specific to heavy use, I play more than 12 hours a day.

[@zaryl2k]

@@rcdarkangelhow about the latest Dell Alienware 32” QD-OLED 4K monitor? Will it easily burn in if i spend most of the time doing office works eg using word, excel a lot?

[@rcdarkangel]

@@zaryl2k Any OLED on a long enough time line will burn in. If you were to buy one, i'd not recommend you waste its life hours on work unless your super rich. I keep my OLED panels specifically for games, and I keep a regular ass LCD just for work and so far, that's done me really well. My 27" LG OLED for instance has 4000 hours and counting with no burn in.

[@dejanbusse805]

Currently running a 240Hz BenQ XL 2456. The coulours really arent good but for Gaming its still great. I never felt the need to Upgrade until now. I feel like the PG32UCDM really has become the next Evolution of Gaming Monitors.

[@IIIDzire]

This year was finally the time I would consider upgrading my PG279Q since the only upgrade I would find interesting is if it was OLED and had a significant Hz increase. Was unsure to decide between OLED 4K 240 or OLED 2K 360. I decided to go with the 2K 360 since I find 32 inch too big and mainly play competitive shooters. Also I personally don’t really care for 4K that much and prefer smoothness over resolution so 4K didn’t really make sense. Also my 3080 probably is better suited for 2K as well. I ordered the Alienware AW2725DF as soon as it became available in my country (last Friday). I’ve only had the time yet to test it for about 2 hours, but I’m loving it so far. The picture quality definitely is an upgrade and the jump from 165 to 360 Hz might not be as insane as 60 to 144, it’s definitely noticeable. I remember your video where you tested the 540 Hz monitor and said “it felt like looking through a window”. That is exactly what I feel like using this monitor. Anyway I’m excited to further test it and go back to some old games I enjoyed to see how it compares :)

[@mr.waffles2555]

I think I’d be more interested in a 27” 1440p @360hz personally.

[@xlinnaeus]

Oh no... I see Destiny 2 creeping in... Good luck

[@user-ck9cw8fs5n]

I clicked to see him go crazy with Tracer. WE NEED MORE TRACER HIGHLIGHTS!

[@mrsisig7443]

Still to big. Wish it was 27inches.

[@IFYT_OG]

Is there a 27 inch version of this monitor?

[@voodoo22]

Price is disqusting

[@Dubulcle]

Only if you're broke

[@GamersSanctum]

The quality of your vids is next level. You do such a good job, plus no sponsors! The direction of monitors is nothing but good for us, the monitor market has been stagnant for almost a decade and it's moving so rapidly now. I'm most excited for the 27" 1440p 480hz oled.

[@seollenda]

Id love a video comparing all the different brand's take on this panel!

[@H3liosphan]

I'd bet it looks utterly fantastic, but since I got screwed with an OLED TV that began to show signs of burn-in after only 2 years, I'm skeptical, esp considering QD-OLED is showing signs of early death already. Burn-in protections were built into my TV as well, but it didn't help.

[@_FLAK_]

32" really is the new 27". I'm typically ahead of market trends and have many many hours behind top-end 4k monitors in formats of 42", 32" and 27". 32" really does seem to be the "last stop" for size. UNLESS you have a deep desk of at least 36" deep then maybe go bigger than 32. But for the majority of users 32" is the most you'll ever need. I just wish more 32" came with a small curve of at least 1500.

[@griffin1366]

It's all personal preference. I much prefer 24" and am hanging out for a 24" OLED.

[@shsgshshsdgdhdhhehe5932]

If only I had the 4090 i'd buy this. This monitor looks dope though. Maybe in the future i'll have to upgrade to this. currently rocking the pg27aqdm

[@testtube173]

How are you enjoying the new season of overwatch? DPS feels really strong right now since the damage is so easy to land now and that 20% reduction to incoming heals.

[@wingsrose9639]

We are almost there... Can't wait for 4k oled @144Hz to come out. I wonder how much people can run games at ultra setting at 4k and 240Hz.

[@lespaular]

Wake up babe optimum tech just posted another banger

[@VictorSantos2k]

Why advertised it 240hz when only DP 1.4, 4k cannot be higher than 120hz right?

[@NateFromIT]

I am on the fence because of the PPI. I have a 27inch 4K monitor and I love the clarity. I want to upgrade but I am accustom to this level of clarity now. Might have to wait for the 27inch versions.

[@LuffyDaGoat]

Fam you’re looking jacked 💪💪

[@anselrod5699]

260 nids pretty solid brightness, LMAO. Are you working for Asus?

[@MakeSh00t]

it is the best explanation ever people complain that Oled needs to be glossy and it is huge difference vs anti glare... it is only placebo.

[@5eymour8utz]

I like how everything he says is in some way meaningful to the video topic, he could've easily made this a 10-11 min video with filler at the beginning and end. It's very refreshing to see

[@CILINKY]

As somone who plays mainly competitive FPS games on a 25 inch monitor and the occasional single player game on my secondary 4k monitor, I really hope the WOLED comes with a cropping function for the 1080p mode. That could be an end game monitor to me. Without a cropping mode, like the PG27AQN had, the 1080p mode seems worthless on a 32 inch monitor

[@xellaz]

Great video as usual! It's a shame this monitor still uses Displayport 1.4 instead of 2.0 or better. 😔

[@LexLutha]

So this monitor doesn’t get as bright as my PG27UQ but specular highlights in dark games like RE 4 or Dead Space are jaw dropping! The lights look like actual lights. The only thing this panel doesn’t do great is looking at the sky in a game like 2042. The sun is sooooo bright on the 27UQ. I’m still experimenting though.

[@carloscervantes836]

I think the size itself is great BUT I hate to lose my PPI on 4K 27" :(

[@Bloodyhellfinger18]

I have been waiting for this monitor for a while now

[@sachak]

I have been using a 55" LG Oled CS for the past 2 years and the text is pretty crisp, I don't seem to get that weird fringing you showed there, I would think that being that monitor is 32", the pixel density would be far higher and thus the text should look incredible. I think zooming into any monitor with a physical camera does it zero justice as all monitors will start looking strange under those circumstances.

[@mikaelnilsson5912]

I got the top of the line Acer 27" 1440p IPS 165hz G-sync monitor back in 2018 and it was pretty amazing. This monitor makes my Acer look like it has a TN panel.

[@zmb5501]

Yeah I have ips 4k 144 hz 27 inch. Tbh not happy with it. Oled is just miles better. It was better than my 1440p monitor but resolution isn't everything.

[@bestja2137]

You can't have both cropped/black-boxed 1080 and 480hz on the new panels that are coming this year. They get to 480hz by basically interlacing frames at 240hz on every other line, a bit like 1080i worked back in the day.

[@JYoutubes10]

I appreciate the work you put into your channel. Stoked about these 4k OLEDs, but I'm waiting for the Aorus release before I make a decision on one.

[@alanbenyamin487]

One thing I hate about asus is their stands. Tripod on a desk where I need to save some space is just not gonna work.
