@@MemerMani was actually wondering what was the reason for this monitor 34inch uqhd 240hz woled with matte finish, we already had qd-oled 175hz glossy ultra wide uqhd for 2 years now and they cost 850€ now, this one comes out at 1300€ seems to me a small upgrade for 500€ more at this point I would upgrade to a 4k 240hz qd-oled whatever the brand let’s say alienware, costs less gets you more or maybe wait for the woled with 1080p 480hz/4k 240hz dual mode, but this one reviewed in the video for me has no space when there are already qd-oleds outs for 900€

@nickbryant6970 3 месяца назад

@MemerMan it's nice for shooters too. Basically free fov. I've been testing between 360hz 25 inch 16:9 and the ultrawide oled 165hz and they're both just as good for fps. The whole 16:9 is better for fps is coming from people who don't own one or take time to get used to ultrawide.

@choocharoo 2 месяца назад

Depends. If you dont have a 4080S or 4090 than 4k is not worth. Your gonna have a much better time on 1440p. Having said that the ultrawide format is more to push than the standard 16:9. So this or 4k panel gonna be hard to push. I guess its about future proving for maybe the next video card generation.

Great video! Looking to get my first top of the range monitor and most reviews miss checking out real life productivity. Would you recommend this for someone that works with two word documents side by side and will then game onba 4k pc and ps5? If not do you happen to have another recommendation? Cheers

@SpawnPoiint 4 месяца назад

I'd say this is a great compromise for doing it all. The only issue I'd have with using it for work is the curve is quite extreme. Like there are no straight lines, but the visuals and clarity is impressive. Also as the PS5 doesn't support ultrawide you'd have to use it with those black bars.

@therdku 3 месяца назад

What about the risk of OLED burn-in for productivity? Honestly I would absolutely pull the trigger on one of these, and this ASUS also has that KVM function my current Dell IPS has, which is awesome. However my monitor is used for work more than it is for gaming, and I worry this will likely result in some kind of burn-in in less than 6 months.

@archangel5526 2 месяца назад

This is it, this is the monitor that will take me to OLED.

@KillerBearsaw 26 дней назад

Been considering this vs the DWF or waiting for the MSI MPG. Tough decisions, the 2yrs warranty vs dell's 3 year (and supposedly better customer support) has me worried. the KVM switch is very very nice to have.

@jaspreetsingh3164 3 месяца назад

@alexblankenship7385 Месяц назад

I really want an OLED display that's 30+ inches for my Mac desktop setup. I've been very impressed with the OLED panels in my recent model iPhones and love viewing my photos and videos with such great color vibrance and contrast. Not to mention the deep blacks with OLED are so nice. Me using an Apple, means I don't really game but I do Minecraft plenty, but with macOS its more so for productivity and my main use is photo editing and web browsing and streaming videos, movies, or shows. I hope to not have burn in issues if I do choose OLED.

@Joshua-xh6bm 4 месяца назад

Did they tone down the grainy-ness of the screen coating? I'm not a matte hater by any stretch. I have the Asus 27 inch WOLED right now and I love it EXCEPT for the coating because even by matte standards it's super grainy, so any time you play an HDR game and you get a bright white or blue light on your screen you can see the grain. There's matte, and then there's whatever this is.

@SpawnPoiint 4 месяца назад

I'd say it was better than the 27" version. There's still some slight grain, but only when looking really closely.

If you use it with a PS5, then the black bars are present. The aspect ratio 16.9? It would be connected by HDMI 2.1? Which allows 120hz gaming at 4K. This is not a 4k monitor. Would this make much difference? If I used a game which makes use of 120 at 4k on an LG 42 c3 and compared it to this Asus monitor playing the same game at 16.9 with black bars down the side would the difference be night and day?
