    I'm finally getting around to my review of the @asusrog PG42UQ 4k OLED Monitor after spending over 8 months with it. My initial impressions video was months ago and I got to busy to hop right into the review but the upside is it means I've spent more time with this and in terms of OLED tech for monitors this blows any VA or IPS panel out of the water in terms of the local dimming zones, true blacks, and vibrant colors. The price tag of the PG42UQ is one of the biggest hurdles here as its costs a lot more than an LG C2 or C3.

      .....It bothers me the most. I plan to use the monitor with the PS5. I will be glad to read your opinion about (possible) pixel burnout. (I'm leaning more towards the 48-inch model.) I really want to watch MY FAVORITE movies, too. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING besides pixel burnout is how tired the eyes are. Of course, this is individual, but I would like to read an opinion about it.
      ..Это беспокоит меня больше всего. Я планирую использовать монитор с PS5. Буду рад узнать ваше мнение о (возможном) выгорании пикселей. (Я больше склоняюсь к 48-дюймовой модели.) Я тоже очень хочу посмотреть СВОИ ЛЮБИМЫЕ фильмы. САМОЕ ВАЖНОЕ, помимо "выгорания пикселей" - это то, насколько устают глаза. Конечно, это индивидуально, но я хотел бы прочитать Ваше мнение по этому поводу.

    Loving this monitor. I purchased it just over a year ago. The issues I had have since been fixed with firmware upgrades. My only issues are with certain games that have HDR as a feature. It's not that well implemented, which is a game issue, not an actual monitor issue. No buyer's remorse from me. OLED is still glorious for me. :)

      ​@@omsa831 it's just a small drawback imo and is still absolutely worth it. Unless there is direct light on the monitor, it's a non-issue. Ironically, you'd probably have more issues if the monitor had a gloss finish as the reflections would be more of a distraction than any matte finish would present. I own a C2 so I know both worlds.

  • @bp328i
    @bp328i 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    Completely agree with almost everything in the video. Only difference is I’m coming from an LG C2 and would pick this even with the pricing increase.
    Love this monitor with my short time using it.
    My first one was delivered with the screen damaged (thanks FedEx), my second one (delivered a day late, thanks again FedEx) had a pixel die (basically right in the center) after three days. Now my third one is running a day late (thanks yet again FedEx) but I can't wait to start using it again. Hopefully third time is the charm. I'm currently using the LG C2 and the reflections are killing me.

    Why in the HDR Settings section are you not in HDR mode? When I go to "color" in HDR Mode I only get to edit "Color temp". I find that HDR mode feels like it is a bit washed out compared to standard. I'm looking for settings for HDR use.
    Tips on burn in: Use black screen background for this monitor (2nd monitor that is non OLED can be whatever). Set task bar to go away after non use--hover to get it back. I've had it over a year and it is an awesome monitor.

    Awesome video! Thanks for all of the helpful information.
    Curious what specs you run on your computer and what frames this resulted in? Not sure if my 4070Ti can handle this or not?
    Also, for more competitive shooter type games, is there any options for reducing the window size down to say 27 inches to keep that more 'traditional' monitor feel that is usually used for these types of games?

    • @1UpNerdcore
      @1UpNerdcore  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I run a 3080ti. Your 4070ti should do okay. You can set any game to be windowed at the resolution you want and then scale it so it’ll be close to a 27inch monitor.

    it takes about 3 to 4 years to see burn in some times and it also depends on how many hours it used. With A ton of hours on a burn-in might show up in the 3-4 year time frame. But since the monitor has a heatsink, it's likely burn-in won't show up until like 6-7 years.

    I've had mine for 10 months now and no real issues. It's still the best monitor on the market. I do notice the anti-glare Micro-texture coating, but only in super bright uniform color situations. The thing I wish I knew about all OLED screens is the issue with flickering which happens when fps fluctuates. It can be really noticeable in games that have a lot of dark environments.

      im at 3 months, eyes DO NOT get tired. I play a lot of COD and the visuals are now spectacular. I switched from a 50 something inch ultrawide samsung odyssey g9 i think is what it was. But i prefer the resolution, brightness, and bright colors/crispiness of this monitor. Extremely responsive it is. Amazeballs. Unboxing it make your butt-cheeks pucker a little bit because it is that awesome.
      if u get it and it has the issue where it automaticcaly turns off after 4 hours, upgrade the firmware and it should resolve this.
      bear in mind tho (this is my worry) that sinc eits oled its succeptable to burn in. I play a lot of games but I do a lot of work on spreadsheets too but i said "screw it, lets see what happens" so....after long gaming sessions, or when I get up to leave or something, i will run the "pixel cleaning" feature, just to be on the safe side, not sure about this tho, if im doing the right thing.....i want to care for the monitor and take care of it so it lasts long.

    I have this monitor and it's been 4 months. It shuts off randomly and becomes unresponsive, requiring me to unplug from the wall. And now I've discovered a dying pixel, right in the center. 4 months... this thing cost me ~$1400. Not only this, but I've been totally neurotic about keeping this thing in top shape: monitor sleep time set at 5 minutes, never leaving on a static image, and running pixel cleanings whenever prompted. The picture is amazing and it truly enhances my computer use but the issues have me honestly reconsidering my decision to get this.

      It’s has a warranty so run the RMA on it. Burn in will happen years down the road. OLEDs come with some caveats like not leaving it on a static image etc but being obsessive extends it only so much. Go micro led if it’s causing anxiety about burn in.

    I have two big and important questions to ask you before buying this screen because I am interested. "I am French"
    1 - Can you confirm that this monitor will be able to show me 1080p 60hz when I play on ps3 slim, ps4 fat? I also own the other playstation but I'm sure it's good so don't worry
    2 - What is the size of your table on this video please?

    I want to get this, but I have static imagery on my desktop for over 12 hrs a day every day, and I don't want to change my usage like have a disappearing taskbar, no icons, changing background, etc. I just want to continue using my PC as normal.

    The OLED panel care where it shuts off for 10 minutes does not fix it, nor does leaving it off overnight.

    I bought a PG48UQ and it arrived today. Thought everything was ok until I went to select a 3840x2160 Refresh Rate of 120hz. Nope. Black Screen which forced me to turn the monitor off/on and even then I had to turn auto-detect off to finally get it to revert to 60hz. I tried turning Overclocking on/off - I don't even see the 138hz option as refresh option. I made sure I installed the Monitor Driver and updated to Firmware .029 (Was on .028).
    I tried changing colour gamut to 4.2.2 which finally allowed me to go 120hz but then it started flickering and upon reboot all I get is a Black Screen. I can't even get into Safe Mode to revert the graphics change I made. I have a 3080 - surely it and this monitor can do 3840x2160 @ 120hz? I've literally watched TH-cam reviewers do it! All in all an absolutely dismal experience so far.

It got too late so I'll hook my PC up to a second screen tomorrow to see if I can adjust the Drivers back to what they were. I didn't try HDMI though on my PC which is something I will do.
      I'll let you know how I get on. I think I'll go sRGB from DCI color space too as it just popped more. I'm just baffled as to why I can't select 120hz.

    Have you noticed any VRR flickering on the pg42uq? I have the LG C3 and the flickering is so noticeable.
    Also, is the asus fully compatible with g-sync? As the LG c3 has issues with the g sync handshake and also states “not compatible” when it actually is.
    Basically, the flashing is driving me mad (even in 5 frame fluctuations) and having to reset my driver every time I start the computer to get g sync working has been really annoying.
    Please let me know. Thank you.

      No real issues with flickering, on a rare occasion I might notice something when overclocked to the 138hz but that’s pretty rare and it’s for a split second and then goes away. It works with g sync compatibility so you’re good there 👍🏻
