I apologize for my absence from my channel as of late. In July I became severely ill from black mold toxicity which ended up with us having to abandon our apartment and lose everything in the process down to the clothes on our back. I'm now settled in a new place but the neurological effects are still effecting me so going forward it will be a challenge to be as productive as I have been on this channel. The hope is that with time those effects will wear off but there is no time table and some don't recover. With that said if you'd like to help support not only the channel but my life consider using the links in the description to make your purchase. This is my sole income now and every dollar counts. Thank you.
This is currently on sale in the UK at amazon for £650 down from £900. Just a reference for anyone in the future wondering how much it can be discounted for in sales.
Habe diesen Monitor im Vergleich mit dem Asus PG34WCDM getestet! Das Bild beim MSI Monitor ist deutlich klarer und schärfer. Das Textbild beim PG34WCDM ist leider nicht gut!
Bin mir noch unsicher weil ich was zum programmieren suche
@@jackson159 Ich denke für produktive Arbeit sind IPS Monitore immer noch die bessere Wahl. Wegen der Textqualität und burn in Gefahr.
Habe den pg27aqdm da Asus nur 800r curved hat was mir zu krass ist. Wollte gerne ein Lg Panel. Jetzt hört man im Video das Oled Care aus ist wenn man adaptiv Sync an macht ist doch echt doof?!
just ordered this monitor today along with a 4080 Super/7800x3d setup. cant wait to receive all of it. thanks for the review!
Nice!! I have a 4080 FE, bet that Super will be sweet!
@@JacobDarkOfficial from everything I've read the 4080 and 4080 Super are almost identical. within a couple frames in most games...but that $200 price drop is the kicker.
@@uriahsullivan2811 Bonus for sure, I built mine last year, first build and was originally going for a 4070 Ti but ended up going with the 4080 to future proof myself.
You'll love your 7800x3d. I use it with a 4090 and it's a great cpu. Stays nice and cool too
This is exactly what i got but still looking for a monitor. Does this monitor support g sync for the 4080 super? or only free sync?
Nice review!
May I ask how to choose between MEG 342C and this monitor if the prize is the same ?
funny thing about halo is that this game even in its newer version, looks practically the same like the old ones...
its gen 1
Am I crazy or am I seeing a bunch of motion blur?
21:9?
Getting the MSI MPG321URX delivered tomorrow from B&H, Can't wait to try it out.
Nice, couldn’t get anything. Maybe I should just wait further until WOLED monitors come.
Have you used it yet ?
@@Ashen-coin Yup, been using it for 2 weeks now, It’s a fantastic monitor. I honestly have no complaints, it gets plenty bright and I have no issues using it during the day.
Great review. But I would like to know what is the difference between this and Samsung G8 / Philips 34m2c8600? Thanks and keep up the good work
Did u have the gameplay in this video upscaled to 4k & downsampled back to 1440p or were u playing native 1440p?
I'm not sure i understood you correctly can you disable oled care by enabling adaptive vsync and i have rx 7900xtx can i just enable freesync ?
The fact that OLED care is switched off with adaptive sync is a big problem because you always have to switch it on and off. Do all manufacturers do it like this?
Have u experienced any stuttering with this monitor? Mines is stuttering.. It stutters even when im not running any programs or games. My taskbar stutters and also when l open up a browser that stutters periodically too..
Stutters when Adaptive sync is on and off. same when i turn on HDR as well.
I have updated my drivers. updated the monitors firmware made sure my refresh rates are all correct. at 175hz but still stutters. thought it might be my DP cable but tried two different cables and the same stutter. my old mini led monitor did not have this issue, all my other monitors are fine..
I haven't experienced anything, haven't had to update firmware, been problem free so far
I had stuttering with my old Displayport cable that worked fine in my 1080p monitor...I bought a new top-quality cable and everything cleared up. The HDMI cable that came with the monitor produced a 120Hz refresh rate and none of the high-res settings produced a proper aspect ratio...don't know what that was all about.
could that be the oled care? it will shift the oleds 1 pixel to the side every few minutes
Compared with Samsung oled g8, Which one do you think is better?
Samsung's RMA is trash
stay away from samsung, too many horror stories
I bought this monitor today i noticed the screen is not fitting perfectly there is a blank space on the right side i though it's faulty screen but it seems you have the same thing so i guess it's by default from manufacturer
E.A.G.L.E.S!!!!!
Eagles!!!!!!!
All day!!
Go birds! We signed Barkley
lit@@GoldenKnight702
Would this monitor pair well with apple silicon macbook pro?
Nice video bro
Does the screen come with some bubble protection in the packaging? Or did it come with some protective plastic?
Protective plastic and the typical thin foam sheet that wraps most monitors
@@JacobDarkOfficial So to confirm, this monitor does come with a plastic peel on the screen?
Correct
@@JacobDarkOfficial Excellent, thank you!
@JacobDarkOfficial sorry pal, but I just received my 341cqp and no peel on the screen! Actually read about this before...
Have this Monitor coil whine?
is this monitor the same as the MSI Optix MAG341CQ.?
It is not
Finally! The first review for this monitor even though it’s been out a while. I currently have an OLED G8 and am less than impressed with the picture quality compared to the S95B tv and even my LG C1. Now you’re saying you’ve confirmed it’s a 3rd gen OLED panel, but does it actually look better or get brighter than the existing 34” QD-OLEDS?
If you haven’t seen them, how does it compare to say the new 27” QD-OLED from MSI? Since they’re the same gen panels and PPI they should look and perform the same with the exception of aspect ratio and refresh rates.
I’m just very skeptical of MSI’s claim that this is a new gen panel given that all the on paper specs seem to be the same as the other 34” panels. Especially when they’re the only ones releasing a new 34”.
Anyways I’ve liked and subbed. Sorry for the super long comment but any insight you can provide at all would be GREATLY appreciated! :)
While I haven't used the other 34" OLEDs MSI did confirm to me this is a 3rd gen Samsung panel. I'm currently playing Halo Infinite and honestly the picture is beautiful. I can't say how much of a difference you'll notice bit I'd pick this over the 27" all day just foe immersiveness. If you do end up buying I'd super appreciate you using my link
@@JacobDarkOfficial Will do if I end up getting the monitor!
And so you’re saying that the brightness/quality/colors of the 34” match up with the 27”? (Everything else being equal I definitely agree about ultrawide being the way to go)
@@duncethedoctor9054I didn't try the 27 I tried the 32" and yes I'd say that. If I had to choose one to keep it would be the 34" and that's exactly what I did.
@@JacobDarkOfficialsorry to bother but as i checked with pre-sale they said it simply the same panel like the previous gen panel😂
@ith1849 Looking at the email now where I specifically asked "is the QD OLED panel in the 341CQP the same 3rd gen Samsung panel used in all the new QD OLED models?" and was replied with "Yes, the 341CQP uses the same 3rd Gen Samsung panels that everyone else has." Also because the panel has the same purple hue that the new QD OLEDs have I'd assume it is the new Samsung panel. All that said I reached out again just to confirm and will update when I get a response.
Is the pixel noticeable
Not at all
Was this confirmed to be using the same 3rd-gen qd-oled panels? It doesn’t advertise the improvement in text clarity shown in the 4k models and has a lower Clear MR rating
Yes it is, confirmed with a rep from MSI
Is the 4090 graphics card compatible with Adeptive Sync?
Should be my 4080 works
How is the text fringing in this display?
How its better than 34dwf?
Not a gamer here but what is the name of the game you showed?
Halo Infinite (Campaign)
Hey, is this monitor Samsung third gen?
Was thinking the same thing, there seems to be a lot of conflicting information about the panel actually being a 1st generation panel.
MSI confirmed it's a 3rd gen, it also has a purple hue in bright light that only the QD OLEDs have.
@@JacobDarkOfficial thank you!
@@JacobDarkOfficial thanks for the update, I've just ordered one and looking forward to receiving it. Subscribed to your channel.
Thanks! I use it everyday and am sure you'll enjoy it
Do you think this one is worth it over the 4k 240hz version for gaming and media consumption?
I would only pick this one over the 32 if you plan to do editing, for gaming/media consumption I'd go 32 all day.
hit RELOAD :D
899 $, and currently 829 $? In Germany it costs arround 1,100 EUR, almost 50% more. The reviews under your link helped me with my decision. Thanks a lot!
Thats the same panel as awd34dwf, which is 950in Lithuania
922 € in Slovakia with coupon or 971 € standard price.
Prices in the USA are without sales tax. Price in Germany is inclusive 19% sales
@@Just_Mike64You are totally right. I forgot about that.
It states on MSI website that it can go up to 175hz, but mine reaches 120hz only. And when I change it to 120hz, the display automatically shrinks and I have 2 black borders on left and right. Right now for fullscreen I have to keep it at 50hz. It is a new build. Any idea why this happens?
are you using hdmi or display port? do you change the settings through windows or directly through monitor?
@@Rasakson thanks, I'm using hmdi 2.1. I had the display 3440x1440 through windows settings. What I did to solve it, was pushing the navi key behind the monitor, go to settings, choose HDMI 2.1 option and change from Console mode to PC mode. It unlocked the 175hz 3440x1440 and no problems. Anyway, thanks
@@Gossosgrocs weird because as far as i know hdmi (no matter if the new 2.1 version) is only able to push to max 120hz output. are you using your screen on pc or console? if it's on pc I would still highly recommend display port
@@Rasakson what version of the display port is best?
@@MrGoji12345 1.4a since the monitor has a 1.4a connection, the newest dp 2.1 is only supported by the newest amd gpus even the rtx 40 series only support 1.4a this may change when newer nvidia gpus are released
what's the name of the game?
Which game?
@JacobDarkOfficial Wait is it two games you are playing or one game?? gameplay starting at 8:40 till 11:20 ☺
Halo Infinite
@@JacobDarkOfficial Thank you for the reply, awesome game
Do you suggest this one over the asus rog 34 inch 240 hz monitor
I prefer this one, you save about $300, more if the MSI is on sale. I've been using this one as my main monitor and I'm totally satisfied.
I wass torn between this and the odyssey g8. Ended up going with the g8 because it was 100 cheaper and offered a zero interest payment plan. Is there much difference between them?
G8 is gen 1 panel and this is gen 3 (or 2.5). Text clarity is much better on gen 2 and gen 3 panels.
@@LaDeXi What are your thought on the review below? It from this link to Best Buy:
"MSI is trying to pass this panel off as a 3rd gen/next gen panel. It is not. It is a gen 1 panel with the worse subpixel layout that they've slapped "AI" into the branding to try and label it is a gen 3 panel. Do yourself a favor and wait until the proper "next gen" panel comes to ultrawide, or look at the options with a 16:9 or 32:9 aspect that actually have 2nd and 3rd gen panels."
I didn't get notified by the comments above but I do see this one and can only tell you MSI has personally double confirmed to me that this is a 3rd gen panel.
@@JacobDarkOfficial Thanks a lot Jacob, still considering to buy MSI. :) I'll check some other videos of you.
does it have G-sync ?
No just adaptive sync
Does this use freesync premium pro or just generic vrr?
Generic vrr
AMD lists it on their website as Freesync Premium Pro certified
does it have 10bit color depth ??
display panel is 10 bit native but u can go 12 bit in ur graphic card settings when plug it with hdmi 2.1
Watching now. You are great at what you do!
Appreciate you!
why is the samsung panel only 175hz? the lg one does offer 240hz .. i feel like i will try the 32 inch 16:9 version with 240hz true 4k
My only complain is the fact that is curved. For some reason it is very diffecult to find a new 34" flat ultra wide.
No firmware updates is a major L
You can update firmware on this model
@@JacobDarkOfficial I stand corrected, you’re right. My fault. It’s the other MAG models where you can’t.
How about MPG 27inch model can upgrade??
@@st.lutiana714 yes
