Thanks for the detail about 65Ws vs 90Ws on the USB-C port. I don't think anyone else covered that and it's good info to have. Regarding not being able to get to 240Hz. Most people that are spending this money on a monitor are probably buying 4090s and the soon to be announced 5090s.
4K/UHD on 27 inch means you will need massive scaling in Windows. It is not really good for most people. 27" sweetspot is 1440p. 4K/UHD sweet spot is 32" for monitors that is. You will see little to no 27 inch monitors use a 4K panel outside of monitors made for design and work.
@@thomasandersr in the Uk where I live asus is 1350£ and msi 1300£. I don't understand why in Europe the prices are just to high man. Like with that money you could of buy a tv oled 4k, a good laptop or something else. It's just a f monitor + they don't have 2.1 dp.
Agree with you, they are so expensive they cost the price of some previous gen OLED 65" TV. My theory is it's more expensive over here because EU has a mandatory 2 years warranty on new product sold.The cheapest I can find here in Belgium (when available) is 1515€ (1631$). USA show prices without taxes, the highest average combined state and local sales tax rates is Louisiana with 9.86%. Which gives 1299$ + 9.86% = 1417$ Yes, that's in the most taxed states. It can go as low as 0 but that's an exception (only 4 states). Eyeballing it, the national average is around 6% or ~1 377$, so one could conclude that the ~254$ dollars difference left between me and the average US citizen, went... in a 2 years mandatory product warranty.
@@Oxygen.O2 true ma men + I'm not in a rush right now . I'm gonna wait a little longer to buy a 4k oled monitor or just go and buy the alienware which is much cheaper like 400£.
That Optical Port is a big selling point for me. Ever since that got removed from the Xbox Series line of consoles, trying to get 5.1 while keeping 4k 120hz was hard. I did eventually find a HDMI switch that has a built in audio extractor. This would remove a couple of cables from my setup. But I can't justify £1300 and I have enough things I'm trying to do as it is Great review as always Chap
I hate that Optical Ports are being phased out. I built a new PC last year and it wasn't until I put it altogether that I realized the motherboard didn't have an optical port for my speaker setup. Luckily I had an old sound card that I could add in
It's cool that they've added an SPDIF Out so you can run audio and video with 1 cable from the GPU to the monitor, then an SPDIF cable from the monitor to a soundbar or AV Receiver. Kinda wish monitor manufacturers would add an eARC out connector too.
Got mine yesterday, been waiting for a monitor with these specifications for years of using plasma and oled TV's. Some niggles remain but finally future is here. Also very happy at sdr 120nits, don't need eye scorching brightness on the desktop. Will have to check that rog arm. 👍
I don't get that no one is mentioning this. You have an almost bezel less monitor, but ugly cables sticking out. Call me nuts but that is a reason for me not to buy this monitor.
LG doesn't sell any QD-OLED displays. So the reason the 4k 240hz LG looked different wasn't just the Matte coating, its also using a WOLED panel which is not QD-OLED.... FYI.
thats too microscopic of a comparison tbh. a 2022 oled vs 2024 oled from LGs C class. the differences will be of course in brightness, image processing and you get 144hz with the C4 but i think as far as gaming goes the differences are not very palpable to make you go "uh i need to upgrade the C2 to C4".

MSI doesn’t support firmware and isn’t calibrated as well as the this one. I personally have the UCDM and the hype is true. Incredible monitor. The gigabyte is interesting but who cares about DP 2.1 at the moment. No GPU can support it and even when they begin to we are going to be using DSC anyway. Not a big deal

Is that power cable management as bad as it looks? I want to use it in a VESA mount arm, but it won't look as good with that power cord drooping down. Can it be arranged?
I'm a bit torn, look at @5:09 you can see the brightness of the ASUS hides detail, or if its supposed to be like this from a game developer's point of view then the LG reveals greater detail such as the leaves of the palm in front of the glass building on the left side of the image and buildings in the background that have parts barely visible on the bright Asus monitor.
4:57 ALL, is this like a monitor setting that can be fixed with going to a different mode? cause the white really look blue on the LG, if this can be fixed LG would be more preferable, but if not ASUS looks way better
Hello I'm looking to buy this monitor for the PS5 coming from a tv. Without any speakers, how to connect to an audio outpuf like external speakers or a soundbar? Thank you!
I have MSI but I would never buy LG. It has no real benefits for $300-500 more! You can get cheaper qd oled monitor with better colors and rest of the money spend on better speakers (if you need those, instead of built in ones in monitor) and also you have 3 year burn in warranty.
Hi, I have a question Is this monitor (PG32UCDM) limited edition? Because it is always out of stock and hard to get Did they make enough of this monitor to buy?
theres high demand so it will take a few more months for restock, if youre not lucky enough soon you may need to wait like 4 or more months, you can always buy from scalpers now but its expensive like 500 dollars more than original price
I like Your desk setup, may i ask what is your desk size? I have a 59” magnus pro desk and not sure if i should go for the 32” or the 34” i like the curved on asus 34” not sure still on the 32” flat. Thanks
so why didn't this monitor come with display port 2.1 instead of 1.4 ? the nvidia 5090 has double the power of the 4090 so the new cards can support these speeds, but how is it going to utilize those speeds with 1.4?
I mean, I currently have dual 32 inch 60 Hz refresh HD monitor for my set up. Yes it is a 1080P monitor and it’s a big 32 inch display so you could see the pixels. Definitely thinking about upgrading to a better monitor and this one was perfect because I did not want to compromise on the size of the display but at the same time I want a good quality display with high refresh rate. And this monitor fits everything 32 inches, 4K, 240 so high refresh rate. But the cherry on top is the fact that it’s an OLED which is a big deal because I can’t get over the fact that my main monitors for my main gaming PC set up are not sharp. And for other people, maybe they don’t really care or can’t even tell the difference but I could tell the difference due to the fact that I do daily drive a 15 ProMax, 23 M3 Max MacBook Pro 16in, 24 iPad Pro 13in, and an Ultra Watch. All these have OLED displays and definitely there’s a big difference between OLED and a regular non OLED display. But the price might be a little steep, but I’ll probably just buy one out of the two monitors and it will be my main monitor out of the 2.😊
@@LexLutha Yes that's what I thought. I have the UQX and it is unsurpassed in 99% of any content but the haloing in scenes with multiple small bright spots against a dark background as well as the reverse haloing in gray/foggy scenes means that immersion can be broken and the cheapest OLED could laugh in its face in certain specific scenarios. Still I am hesitant to go for the UCDM because I use my monitor (a lot) for office work as well as gaming plus I have an LG C1 as a second monitor which is absolutely fine as an OLED monitor if I want to play a game that would suffer from haloing on the UQX. I am still not convinced that the UCDM would be a good all-in-one option despite the 3 year burn-in warranty. The UQX is really sturdy and I am completely care-free displaying static content on it for hours on end, I would probably be paranoid with the UCDM. I have been using the UQX for thousands of hours of work and play and there is zero degradation in the picture, zero dead pixels, no lighbleed and excellent uniformity in a way that it makes it hard not to forgive the 1% failure in some very specific scenarios.
Hi, have a question What about customer service and the warranty system of Asus I heard they are not the best at providing customer service and warranty for their products Is it worth buying from them in this situation?
I've been saying for years that 4k is basically useless and I was perfectly happy with 1440p. However, as this OLED technology has gotten better and I've been starting to edit video, it has become more attractive. I think I would absolutely pick one of these up in the near future.
i think it's still the best on the market but problem is the RTX4090's not even powerful enough to get the most out of this monitor. Gotta wait for a 5080/90 in early 2025 for true 4k 240hz gaming and who knows what that'll cost since Nvidia has no competition and makes more money making AI stuff.
i used to think that spending lots of money on monitor doesn't make much sense until, my purchased monitor lasted longer than any other part of my pc. Mine is Asus Tuf 2k 144hz since 2019. still hold up and work amazingly
I have a matte finish on my lg oled monitor and it does a decent job with reflections. I don't miss a glossy finish. But indeed my Lg is a dim monitor. It's fine and the image quality is awesome... if only it had a few nits more.
So what I would like to know if it work well with Mac if it scales fine or no. I have a pc rig and Mac would like to run both obviously for different purposes.
The Alienware aw3225QF has the same panel from Samsung and in put lag by this 120hz 6.3ms and 60hz 13.5ms it has more input lag with lower hz. I have yet the pg248qp 7.7ms 120hz and 60hz 8.8hz. We must waiting for the review of Ratings there the best an the asus 27 oled have 60hz 8.8ms 120hz 4.4ms but there’s lg display and 2.0 hdmi only. Hope I can helph you
Regarding the "semi-gloss" screen I'd really appreciate some further information on that. My current QNIX2710 matte monitor only reflects ME and it's a super vague black silhouette. This is what I need in a monitor. I cannot have myself being reflected like in a mirror. It's super distracting and I hate it. This thing looks worryingly like it will reflect my face back at me. Should I avoid? What would be an alternative to consider with a matte coating but otherwise very similar performance and features? This is to go with a 4090 and high end i7 processor new build and I was hoping to try out 4K.
I have this monitor. No it doesn't reflect like a mirror or TV. I have my living room behind me I can barely see reflections. It has something special I reckon. It's a good monitor but way too expensive.
I just swapped out my G9 OLED for this and i'm so happy about it. The Samsung might be my least favourite monitor I've ever owned, while the ROG is the best.
because 1080p/480Hz is gimmick at best. Yeah its nice and "smoother" in motion but very blurry image and 240 Hz with instant reposne time of pixels with low input lag super clear and focused. Not to mention no burn in warranty, no usb-c, no dolby vision, no kvm, worse HDR performance with fucked up EOTF and washed out colors with matte screen that white looks grainy and overall image looks like it was smeared with "vaseline". Yes - you don't understand because you made no research.
@@MrM-dl5zm gimmick at best? the image isn't blurry unless you downscale to 24/27 inch. there IS dolby vision, there IS kvm and there IS usb c up to 90 watts, i'm guessing you had zero clue that LG weren't the only ones making a dual mode monitor as rog are aswell. with no official webpage for the PG32UCDP there isn't any way to tell if the warranty applies to burn in. once again with your lack of research the PG32UCDP doesn't have a matte coating and has much more vibrant colours than LG's monitor because of it. i really hope you dont say something stupid like "how would i know you weren't talking about the LG monitor" considering i'm comparing the PG32UCDP to the monitor in this video, made by the same company. maybe you should do your own research?
@@Hoyley It Is still blurry at 24 inch mode @ 1080p because internal would be 1660p at this size (which looks worse than 1080p@32") PG32UCDP is Asus variant with LG panel. But my stand is the same. Its gimmick feature - pros will use ELMB 500 Hz 24" inch monitors, this is oled to enjoy crystal image with perfect color accuracy and nice high lights from HDR. If you never had oled monitor before with high refresh rate, the 240 Hz is plenty ENOUGH. If you really need these 480 Hz then wait for 27 inch 1440p @ 480 Hz or you can get currently AW2725DF 1440p@360Hz

I´m waiting for the Asus ROG Swift PG32UCDM, here in Sweden it was first April 30, then May 30 and now July 1, when I can get one I will buy it.
I have the MSI version, how is this any different?
If that...
Msi is very much the same, I have the mpg 321urx and is gorgeous!!!
I also have the MSI , it's 450 bucks cheaper here in Canada , and 140 bucks steam credit !
Cope
So which would be better, this or the Dell Alienware AW3225QF?
this is the real question
Does the USB type C have upstream so it also transfers the image to the monitor whilst charging?
Is that power cable management as bad as it looks? I want to use it in a VESA mount arm, but it won't look as good with that power cord drooping down. Can it be arranged?
it will look clean with vesa mount arm
I solved this problem by making a trip to Home Depot. They sell many products for running power wires outside your walls.
Great in depth review!
At the lowest adjustment how tall is the monitor?
Is this a huge difference from the 27 inch version though?
What should I pick? Q27G2, G271CQR, 25G3ZM, AG323FCXE, PG27Q15R2, hyperx armada 25 240hz they are similar in pricing
Question, the resolution and fps stay at 4k and 120 fps on the PS5 when you select the 27 and 24 in aspect ratio?
What game was that game with the big gun? The first person shooter
We appreciate your reviews. Keep up the good work.
he doesn';t even answer questions.
You call this a review???
🤣🤣🤣
Go watch the channel Monitors Unboxed so you can actually learn something useful.
Can you make a comparison with the LG W-OLED?
LG: fucked up EOTF in HDR, lower brightness, lower color gamut, no burn in warranty, no usb-c at $400 more (compared to msi qd oled)
I'm a bit torn, look at @5:09 you can see the brightness of the ASUS hides detail, or if its supposed to be like this from a game developer's point of view then the LG reveals greater detail such as the leaves of the palm in front of the glass building on the left side of the image and buildings in the background that have parts barely visible on the bright Asus monitor.
Not sure if this one will be better than the PG32UCDP. I’m buying one of them that’s for sure. I’ll be waiting on your video when it releases 👊
4:57 ALL, is this like a monitor setting that can be fixed with going to a different mode? cause the white really look blue on the LG, if this can be fixed LG would be more preferable, but if not ASUS looks way better
There are colour temp and picture presets that give you a warmer look if you want (same on the Asus)
What is that desk you are using in the video?
Does the ASUS have clearer text than the LG or are they both similarly good?
Is it compatible with the new M4 Macs? No scaling issues?
Rhanks for the video. I tend to watch this after the purchase... Thank God I shouldn't have any issues.
I bought an open box, have not received yet, hope there is no issues with it 🤞
Hello I'm looking to buy this monitor for the PS5 coming from a tv. Without any speakers, how to connect to an audio outpuf like external speakers or a soundbar? Thank you!
This ROG or LG 32GS95UE?
I have MSI but I would never buy LG. It has no real benefits for $300-500 more! You can get cheaper qd oled monitor with better colors and rest of the money spend on better speakers (if you need those, instead of built in ones in monitor) and also you have 3 year burn in warranty.
is there any 4k qd-oled 240hz monitors that are bigger than 32 inch that out now or some that are comming ?
Can you review pg39wcdm? There are no reviews for it yet
Please could you answer me what is the best monitor for me to get for a PS5? Thanks
Hi, I have a question
Is this monitor (PG32UCDM) limited edition?
Because it is always out of stock and hard to get
Did they make enough of this monitor to buy?
theres high demand so it will take a few more months for restock, if youre not lucky enough soon you may need to wait like 4 or more months, you can always buy from scalpers now but its expensive like 500 dollars more than original price
what keyboard are you using?
is this one better than the samsung oddyssey oled g8? what is the difference?
I like Your desk setup, may i ask what is your desk size? I have a 59” magnus pro desk and not sure if i should go for the 32” or the 34” i like the curved on asus 34” not sure still on the 32” flat. Thanks
so why didn't this monitor come with display port 2.1 instead of 1.4 ? the nvidia 5090 has double the power of the 4090 so the new cards can support these speeds, but how is it going to utilize those speeds with 1.4?
I mean, I currently have dual 32 inch 60 Hz refresh HD monitor for my set up. Yes it is a 1080P monitor and it’s a big 32 inch display so you could see the pixels. Definitely thinking about upgrading to a better monitor and this one was perfect because I did not want to compromise on the size of the display but at the same time I want a good quality display with high refresh rate. And this monitor fits everything 32 inches, 4K, 240 so high refresh rate. But the cherry on top is the fact that it’s an OLED which is a big deal because I can’t get over the fact that my main monitors for my main gaming PC set up are not sharp. And for other people, maybe they don’t really care or can’t even tell the difference but I could tell the difference due to the fact that I do daily drive a 15 ProMax, 23 M3 Max MacBook Pro 16in, 24 iPad Pro 13in, and an Ultra Watch. All these have OLED displays and definitely there’s a big difference between OLED and a regular non OLED display. But the price might be a little steep, but I’ll probably just buy one out of the two monitors and it will be my main monitor out of the 2.😊
How does the HDR compare to the PG32UQX?
The UQX smokes it but the haloing on the UQX is rough. I had both. I would probably pick the OLED just because the haloing.
@@LexLutha Yes that's what I thought. I have the UQX and it is unsurpassed in 99% of any content but the haloing in scenes with multiple small bright spots against a dark background as well as the reverse haloing in gray/foggy scenes means that immersion can be broken and the cheapest OLED could laugh in its face in certain specific scenarios. Still I am hesitant to go for the UCDM because I use my monitor (a lot) for office work as well as gaming plus I have an LG C1 as a second monitor which is absolutely fine as an OLED monitor if I want to play a game that would suffer from haloing on the UQX. I am still not convinced that the UCDM would be a good all-in-one option despite the 3 year burn-in warranty. The UQX is really sturdy and I am completely care-free displaying static content on it for hours on end, I would probably be paranoid with the UCDM. I have been using the UQX for thousands of hours of work and play and there is zero degradation in the picture, zero dead pixels, no lighbleed and excellent uniformity in a way that it makes it hard not to forgive the 1% failure in some very specific scenarios.
What is the name of that CPU cooler you're using?
Hello my friend This monitor has a speaker ?
How far do you sit from the monitor that large?
80cm desk depth
Hi, have a question
What about customer service and the warranty system of Asus
I heard they are not the best at providing customer service and warranty for their products
Is it worth buying from them in this situation?
They are right up there with my wife.
Waiting for 27 inch version. Ideally with KVM switch. That will be my true endgame monitor.
32 inch is not that big tbh. 27 feels like ass now
Same
I've been saying for years that 4k is basically useless and I was perfectly happy with 1440p. However, as this OLED technology has gotten better and I've been starting to edit video, it has become more attractive. I think I would absolutely pick one of these up in the near future.
Hi, is it still your 1st choice?
i think it's still the best on the market but problem is the RTX4090's not even powerful enough to get the most out of this monitor. Gotta wait for a 5080/90 in early 2025 for true 4k 240hz gaming and who knows what that'll cost since Nvidia has no competition and makes more money making AI stuff.
You can turn off that projected light though right?
you can turn off all lights in menu (including power on led on chin)
i used to think that spending lots of money on monitor doesn't make much sense until, my purchased monitor lasted longer than any other part of my pc. Mine is Asus Tuf 2k 144hz since 2019. still hold up and work amazingly
Why the hell did you buy a 1080P (2K) monitor?
@@Battleneter back then, it was my so call "4k entry level" cause i can't afford real one yet.
What would this be like for photo and video editing on Mac mini ?
Price has the ROG tax. Competition is a beautiful thing. Hard pass on this one.
Which is better, it or the LG screen? Because the two screens come with almost the same specifications
LG is matte. This is glossy. This is QD Oled the LG is W Oled.
@@Cubs0209 What is the difference between glossy and matte ?
I have a matte finish on my lg oled monitor and it does a decent job with reflections. I don't miss a glossy finish. But indeed my Lg is a dim monitor. It's fine and the image quality is awesome... if only it had a few nits more.
Are you going to be looking at the new lg g4 oleds? the 83 inch would be nice to see.
I’m waiting for the PA32UCDM. Perfect HDR and SDR, it really does change the game, color accuracy and tracking is important
Ordered today this one, hope my old 3090ti will work for the next year with this monitor. Think ingo for a upgrade with the 5000x series
ROG Swift PG32UCDM vs LG 32GS95UE vs Samsung G80SD. Which is best? LG?
Can you turn off all of the stupid lights?
So what I would like to know if it work well with Mac if it scales fine or no. I have a pc rig and Mac would like to run both obviously for different purposes.
Can anyone tell me what the input lag is on 4k 60hz? I play comp 2k on PS5, a lot of wagers and stuff like that.
The Alienware aw3225QF has the same panel from Samsung and in put lag by this 120hz 6.3ms and 60hz 13.5ms it has more input lag with lower hz. I have yet the pg248qp 7.7ms 120hz and 60hz 8.8hz. We must waiting for the review of Ratings there the best an the asus 27 oled have 60hz 8.8ms 120hz 4.4ms but there’s lg display and 2.0 hdmi only. Hope I can helph you
I would like to know what it's like at 30hz for old games on the consoles.
@Katzikindi Thanks, man. I have the LG C1, supposedly it is 10ms 60hz 4k. Can't believe my TV has lower input lag than the Asus PG32UCDM.
@@Enrique_PC I mean we can’t say it to 100% we must waiting for the ratings review but they haven’t the monitor yet.
The best monitor is 4.4 ms 60hz the pg258q but 1080p tn an old monster the monitor was great but no hdmi 2.0 to the time .
Regarding the "semi-gloss" screen I'd really appreciate some further information on that. My current QNIX2710 matte monitor only reflects ME and it's a super vague black silhouette.
This is what I need in a monitor. I cannot have myself being reflected like in a mirror. It's super distracting and I hate it.
This thing looks worryingly like it will reflect my face back at me. Should I avoid?
What would be an alternative to consider with a matte coating but otherwise very similar performance and features?
This is to go with a 4090 and high end i7 processor new build and I was hoping to try out 4K.
I have this monitor. No it doesn't reflect like a mirror or TV. I have my living room behind me I can barely see reflections. It has something special I reckon. It's a good monitor but way too expensive.
What's the price?
4:01 please tell me, what keyboard do you use?
5:24
This without the burn in would be the absolute perfect monitor
I just swapped out my G9 OLED for this and i'm so happy about it. The Samsung might be my least favourite monitor I've ever owned, while the ROG is the best.
The only issue is QD-Oled blacks are literally grey.. Hoping thes WOLEDs will be mecca this year
they are gray while you flash torch light at panel or sunlight while woleds have washed out colors no matter the condition kek.
Awesome.
Thanks Tom.
Has anyone heard anything about when Amazon or Newegg will have this back in stock?
i personally just dont rly understand why anyone would go for this rather than the dual mode 4k 240hz/1080p 480hz
because 1080p/480Hz is gimmick at best. Yeah its nice and "smoother" in motion but very blurry image and 240 Hz with instant reposne time of pixels with low input lag super clear and focused. Not to mention no burn in warranty, no usb-c, no dolby vision, no kvm, worse HDR performance with fucked up EOTF and washed out colors with matte screen that white looks grainy and overall image looks like it was smeared with "vaseline". Yes - you don't understand because you made no research.
Same boat here. I mainly play cs2 and sometimes other solo games. I play ln 4:3 or even 1080 at times
@@MrM-dl5zm gimmick at best? the image isn't blurry unless you downscale to 24/27 inch. there IS dolby vision, there IS kvm and there IS usb c up to 90 watts, i'm guessing you had zero clue that LG weren't the only ones making a dual mode monitor as rog are aswell. with no official webpage for the PG32UCDP there isn't any way to tell if the warranty applies to burn in. once again with your lack of research the PG32UCDP doesn't have a matte coating and has much more vibrant colours than LG's monitor because of it. i really hope you dont say something stupid like "how would i know you weren't talking about the LG monitor" considering i'm comparing the PG32UCDP to the monitor in this video, made by the same company. maybe you should do your own research?
@@Hoyley It Is still blurry at 24 inch mode @ 1080p because internal would be 1660p at this size (which looks worse than 1080p@32") PG32UCDP is Asus variant with LG panel. But my stand is the same. Its gimmick feature - pros will use ELMB 500 Hz 24" inch monitors, this is oled to enjoy crystal image with perfect color accuracy and nice high lights from HDR. If you never had oled monitor before with high refresh rate, the 240 Hz is plenty ENOUGH. If you really need these 480 Hz then wait for 27 inch 1440p @ 480 Hz or you can get currently AW2725DF 1440p@360Hz
@@MrM-dl5zm i acknowledged it would be blurry at 24 inch mode, you are missing my point ENTIRELY, obviously that monitor is not catering towards pros it is catering towards people who enjoy story games AND competitive games.
I'll be eyeing that monitor when the 5090 drops! I have the Asus XG27AQM with the 3090 and it looks fantastic. Itching for 4K!
