I have no problem with text fringing although I work a lot with text and numbers. I don't game so I can't speak for that. One thing you didn't mention was the joystick control of the monitor menu -- easy to use and intuitive, not like other monitor menus I have seen.
@@woofinu Very true! I’ll be sure to mention it. I think it flew over my head because all the new monitors I’ve tried have this joystick btw! The samsung, LG, MSI, and ASUS monitors i’ve tried all have this and i think it’s become standard :) much better than the old buttons on my last monitor
@@AmelisTech I have a 2-year old Dell Ultrasharp monitor and even though it has joystick control, the joystick is prone to error and often doesn't register the menu change I want. The Asus joystick is much better. I have had this monitor for almost 2 weeks and am very happy with the OLED true black. This is my first OLED big screen (bigger than a phone), and the color contrast is amazing.
Any of that oil effect? after seeing how easy my QD Oled monitor gets micro scratches and with these elevated blacks I think I am going to wait for glossy WOLED 4k...
Appreciate the reply, I'm saving till hopefully next year Black Friday to grab a 3rd Gen OLED and a high end Nvidia GPU. Feels great considering that OLEDs in general are fixing their issues that came with 1st gen displays. How long have you been rocking an OLED? Any burn in or other issues?
A few months of light use! No burn in for me but I know people have been reporting burn in within the first few months! Pixel refresh gets rid of most of it but it will get worse with time! MSI’s 3 year burn in warranty def seems worth it! Hope you get the graphics card and monitor you want :)
I own the qd oled Alienware 4k 240hz and so far its been my main monitor, i tried the new ultra wides and nothing has been able to top it. This Asus one peecks my interest so ill be buy it just to try it out. Are you keeping yours?
I am not! The OLED fringing on this monitor was personally too frustrating to deal with. But you should definitely try it to see if it is not as distracting to you!
Appreciate the kind words! They are near identical in dim/low light situations if the lights are behind the monitor. QD-OLED will raise black levels a tiny bit if there is light on the panel!
I wanted to get the MSI but just could not find it in stock, this one came out and was in stock on Newegg so I went for it. It's my first OLED monitor and huge upgrade over the VA panel I was using. I haven't noticed anything with the text fringing issue that everyone speaks about with these, I guess I am not sensitive to that issue. The one problem I am having and maybe it's just the game itself is Elden Ring. I have to set my monitor in windows display settings to 60 hz. When I set it to 240, the native refresh rate of the monitor, Elden Ring crashes as soon as the save file loads in. When the monitor is set to 60 it is fine. Any way to get higher refresh rate in Elden Ring without having a degree in computer science to fix it? ha ha
@@Itz_littlebear So every time I want to play Elden Ring I have to go in Windows display settings to set it to 60hz or my game crashes. Great .....ha ha
Glad you got this monitor! The MSI stock has been absolutely tough to find. I’m lucky because my local microcenter had it in stock when i went in person even though it said out of stock online. As for the crashes I really have no idea. That’s such an odd issue but it’s definitely not related to the monitor. You can look up tutorials on how to uncap fps in Elden Ring and it might resolve your crashes!
Thanks for the reply. Yeah I have been working on trying to figure the issue out with the locked FPSI can live with one game being locked to 60 I just wish as is I didn't have to change my settings in windows to keep the game from crashing!@@AmelisTech
@@SkilllfulL I sadly don’t have plans to review the G80SD. Unless Samsung would be willing to send one heh. But from what I’ve seen my favorite pro is definitely the bezels. And I think one con I noticed was it has a different coating? I know some people have been loving the matte coating on it. Without seeing it personally I’m not sure if I can recommend. Personally, I prefer the glossy but if you lean towards matte it’s definitely a great option
@@ronald0122 Yeah it's great, especially when playing Cyberpunk the colors are insane. If you are working on this screen 8 hours a day I would not advice it.
I have both the aw2725df and this xg27aqdmg and both have their strengths and weaknesses. But they are closer than they are far apart. They are both excellent monitors.
Bro you've saved my life - I wanted to buy this monitor to check content that is designed for mobile screens which mostly have OLED nowadays - but the fact that you see fringing in games shocked me. This means that it's completely pointless as a 'reference' monitor and QDOLED is the way to go.
youre going to see the same fringing in a qd oled at 1440p 27", gotta go up to a 4k if you want clear text on an OLED, woled and qd oled both look razer sharp at 4k 32
@@nickjacobsss seriously? I'm now rocking ASUS PA32UCX-PK as a main - however, it's a "classic" graphic monitor for printing and stuff. Still looking for some OLED-ish screen - however 27" is max I want to buy since I also want to play some games on it and 1140p is a sweet spot both visually and efficiently. Do you have any recommendation in this size and resolution - or it's at least 4K on 27" or nothing?
@@arude2397 unfortunately 4k 27" oled wont be released until sometime in 2025, right now for oled your only options are 1440p at 27, 4k at 32, or 4k at 42". There are some ultrawides but they are essentially 1440p at 27 but extra real estate on the side, not any sharper.
EVGA, Gskill, and Akko, in my recent memory, have had a very smooth RMA experience.

I know this is late but do you have any good settings for the monitor?

Another great vid!
In dim/low light, is the black level of the qd-oled equal to this monitor or does this monitor seem to go visibly darker? Thanks 🙏

What speaker do you have

With ti take the msi 32 but in uk is £1300 and the asus just £699 almost double the price.
At those prices the Asus seems very well priced!

if you can't use 4k monitor all the time dont get a 32 inch, 1440p will have such a low pixel per inch for a 1440p, not worth it
