I've recently been re-testing some monitors with the latest firmware. Here's what I've found from the Asus PG32UCDM with the latest MCM103 firmware release: ✅Fixed: Brightness on AMD GPUs now reaches 1000 nits without EDID hacks and EOTF tracking is good at a 2%/10% window size ❌Not fixed: Poor EOTF tracking at high window sizes like 25% and 50% which leads to lower than expected brightness in high APL scenes (in the brightest mode) I've run a few real world tests and for reference brightness in high APL content (eg the sky in sunny scenes) can be about 25% higher on the WOLED-based LG 32GS95UE than the QD-OLED PG32UCDM. The LG monitor also has poor tracking at high window sizes like 25%, but not as bad as most QD-OLEDs. This is something all OLED brands need to work on.

Scalpers buy them out to create a shortage and resell at a huge markup. Happens with all new highly desired tech. It's a shame but that's what happens with monitors, graphics cards, gaming consoles etc., etc., if there's a high expected demand for a new launch product the scalpers setup bots to scan for stock online and buy every out.

@BlueSkyleaf 3 месяца назад

Hey great review and glad it turned out great! One little section you could add is that due to the availability of great uoscalers like dlss or xess the scalability of 4k Displays is now so much better and it can achieve the same or even better picture quality at 1440p/1080 ot lower than native displays of that resolution. This is while maintaining native 4k with DLAA etc. For less demanding titles! This is a big change from the pre deep learning based upscaler era where I would almost exclusivetrecommend 1440p displays as the sweet spot for variety gaming.

Tim with all these 4k 240hz monitors coming out I would like to see a video about downscaling as most of the GPUs currently out here can't run 4k at 240z. I would like to know the pros and cons of downscaling to 1080p and 1440p on a 4k monitor for gaming. Something I noticed with my M27QX at 1440p is if you have a monitor that runs at 240 you typically chase that top speed with your settings (at least I did). I have a hard time seeing the difference once I am over 175ish.

@humpheryflaubert8172 Месяц назад

Just use nearest neighbor, aka integer scaling, or DLSS. Most games will require for you to use DLSS anyways, since AI upscaling is now the only good catch-all anti-aliasing solution.

@humpheryflaubert8172 Месяц назад

Oh ya, anything you use for upscaling at a lower resolution that isn't nearest neighbor will look soft and muddy. 1080p, for instance, is still a fairly sizable resolution. So it may not look all that bad. I know that to be the case because that's the resolution I used on my 4k laptop for some time.

Thank you for the excellent review! The only question for me left unanswered is how bad the flicker/gamma shift effect is with VRR and games with highly variable framerates.

The inability to turn off deep sleep is a really big deal for multiple monitor users and probably deserves more of a call out.

It’s been over a month now owning the PG33UCDM and my favorite thing about it are the two sRGB modes it features. One targets a flat 2.2 gamma and the other sRGB gamma. This makes a huge difference depending on the game and both modes maintain excellent color accuracy. Aside from wonderful HDR performance, in my opinion this is the best SDR gaming monitor ever made despite the lower brightness in game.

@lilpain1997 3 месяца назад

currently waiting for a 34inch 240 or 360hz QD OLED with at least some brightness increase ( more like 1500+ nits ) to upgrade from a AW3423DW. Still loving the thing everyday so no need to get anything new yet unless it gives a nice jump across all ranges. Its awesome seeing more QD OLEDs and WOLEDs hit the market along with budget Mini LEDs coming in. Maybe now with so many HDR monitors coming out and slowly getting in the more budget range we will see better/more games with HDR?

@FireStarter23 3 месяца назад

Does it have VRR gamma flicker? I had an OLED and also headache because of it. I don‘t know if it was the gamma flicker or any other sort of PWM for brightness. I have no problem with my OLED smartphone.

I have a 4090 and a 4k@160hz monitor and the only the type of game i described hits maybe 100-120 if lucky. A game like diablo 4, yeah sure, that one gets to 160 with headroom for 200 or more.

@ShalowRecord 3 месяца назад

Remember that you’ll always be chasing a display setting. What I mean is that as games become more demanding, you’ll need a more powerful gpu to run that same setting. Which is why, what a 4090 can do today won’t be the same in the future as you have to slowly drop setting to have better performance.

Suggestion, when looking at VRR, could you investigate how wide the sync window is? 60-240? 48-240? Also LFC (will the display handle dips below sync window gracefully) should be included in your essentials list. According to Freesync Premium certificate the unit should have LFC, but it woul be good to know for cheaper units in case we get more semi-baked AAA games like starfield 😅

@Sean-fj9pn 3 месяца назад

Why is it DOA? There isn't a single GPU on the market with full bandwidth UHBR-20 DP 2.1 ports outside of a few exotic workstation cards. So even if it had DP 2.1 ports you couldn't utilize them anyway, but if you somehow could there would be no discernible difference in image quality either, zero. I guess then every monitor on the market must also be "DOA" too then?
