Isn't this currently the case with the 4090? I'm pretty sure the 4090 isn't actually the full AD102 die as they reserve those for AI cards instead. As for knocking down the memory specs a bit, I'm pretty fine with that if it's going to help reduce the power draw like you said because a 448bit...

Techtesters did not specify what window size she used for her measurement so we can't say that it doesn't add up vs MUB. She might not have even used test patterns for her measurements but instead used real scenes and if you look at MUB real scene results, the monitor gets nowhere near 1200...

Where are you seeing multiple review vids at? I can only find 2 when googling it.

So WOLED does not suffer from crazy dimming in mid APL like QD OLED does. Combine that with a glossy coating that doesn't have raised blacks and a lower price point I think this is the option to get if you want 1440p.

So they only state a fix is coming for not hitting 1300 nits? The response mentions nothing about fixing the poor EOTF tracking.

I still find it hilarious that prior to the 4090 and RDNA3 coming out, rumors were saying the 4090 might have to "juice up it's power draw" in order to compete with top RDNA3 when in reality juicing up the power draw from 450w to 600w on a 4090 barely gets you anything lmfao. If it couldn't...

The 5090 is going to be a beast I have little doubt about that. If the pricing is too high however then I can see people choosing to skip out on upgrading from a 4090. 3090 -> 4090 was a huge performance gain while MSRP only went up by $100 from $1499 to $1599 so let's see if 4090 -> 5090...

No worries. Not sure what else to do with this thing besides keep using it I suppose. If I were to attempt to RMA it I am 99.9% sure MSI will just send it back saying they can't find anything wrong with it since I don't have any way to reliably replicate the issue for them.

I can't update the firmware since I have the MAG model, but I don't think this a firmware related issue. Not sure what part of the firmware would cause it to randomly shut off once every 6 weeks. Would be something to ask the MPG user on reddit though.

If it really was heat though, I'm not sure how being powered off for a few seconds is somehow good enough to let the panel run for hours on end again if it's reached a critical temperature. In both instances when it shut off on me, I just powered it back on and kept using it and it went on for...

Hmm I suppose it could be. That user's unit just seems to be flat out defective though since it's turning off 3 times within 5 minutes and also flashing red and green. His also shuts off while just watching youtube while mine has only shut off while doing HDR gaming so perhaps it is heat related...

So my monitor just powered itself off while I was in the middle of playing ghosts of tsushima. I've had it for exactly 3 months now and this is the second time it's happened. I don't think this has anything to do with firmware, probably some power spikes? Two occurances in a 3 month span is sort...

Sure it can but my original question is who said it will? I haven't seen any indication that it's coming out in June so feel free to link sources. I googled it and the first 3 results all say the same thing, that it will be REVEALED at computex, but not released until later. So if you got...

And? Neither Zen 4 nor Zen 3 came out in June. I'm not sure where this idea that Zen 5 is coming out in June came from since that hasn't been the trend for 2 generations already.

I personally don't think Asus will be able to maintain a $1400+ price tag for very long. There is simply way too much competition in the 32" OLED space and the 480Hz mode is extremely niche. Also, the internet has been led to believe that QD OLED is far far superior to WOLED similar in a way...

Yeah the latest firmware basically makes the monitor perfect now. The only other thing they can add in the future is Dolby Vision for those who care about it I guess.

Who says it was coming out in June?

If you do end up return it, are you going to try out the PG32UCDP instead?

It's not the ABL. It's because the EOTF at higher APL looks like this:

This whole mess of OLED monitors with QD OLEDs having aggressive dimming in P1000 mode and this WOLED just flat out behaving strange has me feeling some newfound appreciation for my CX where I can just set it to HGiG mode and calibrate to 800 nits for a decent experience. No super aggressive...

There's no need to jump on a 7800X3D right now unless you absolutely need something right now. Just wait for reviews and then make a decision.

Well that and also not have a brokenass EOTF.

You didn't make a decent choice. You made the best choice ;)

Man that glossy coating is just 🤩

Well again this is where DLSS comes into play. I never play at native 4K anymore, it's always with DLSS as it's gotten so good with version 3.7 that even Performance mode now looks great while in the past only Quality mode was acceptable to me.

Could definitely slip, but the panel's been in mass production since last month I think? So no reason why a release at the very end of June isn't possible.

Asus rep JJ has also confirmed that the PG32UCDP will be available this quarter so looks like you guys won't have to wait much longer for an alternative to this LG:

Nah it isn't defective. Most reviewers are simply clueless, or they just don't bother since the majority of consumers wouldn't even have an idea what they're talking about if they tried to explain this. How many people do you know would understand what you're talking about if you tried to talk...

Well in the most recent techpowerup GPU review, the 4090 is averaging 118fps at 4K without any upscaling. Is that still not impressive enough?

Pretty good comparison video to WOLED https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVVIcyDdg8U&t=662s

For me personally I just don't see much reason to go back to 1440p when I've been on 4K for years already. Upscaling has sort of rendered the whole argument that 4K is "too demanding" as obsolete. Upscaling is found in nearly all new releases these days so you can always just fine tune your DLSS...

I doubt it. The latest firmware revision is too recent so it is highly likely you are going to get a monitor with a built date that is still using the launch firmware. You would probably have to wait months before you get an MAG model that comes with updated firmware out of the box, by which you...

By an Asus rep on reddit.

It doesn't disable VRR, it just changes the effective range. I wouldn't rule it out as useless just yet. Sure the use case might be limited but I can see scenarios where it actually works. It just needs some proper testing.

It is extremely inconsistent. I tried never physically pushing the power button to force a panel protect again and it ran fine for over a week. Then just now while I was playing Ghost of Tsushima on PC, it forced a panel protect cycle on me. And I did NOT use my PC for 16 hours continously. I...

I'm not really interested in this monitor since it's only 1440p/240Hz like you said, but I think this could be interesting for future monitor releases. A glossy version of the 1440p/480Hz or a glossy version of the PG32UCP running this Anti-flicker tech sounds neat on paper at least.

I did the opposite. Instead of saving up $50 a month and then buying a 4090 in one go, I bought a 4090 on a monthly payment plan through Bestbuy with 0% interest. It's really not hard to make the monthly payments at all, just skip out on Starbucks/Fast food/other small expenses that you do not need.

Reddit user says this is how it functions: I disagree with him saying that it's pointless because while it is true that if you have a mostly stable fps within the upper VRR range, sometimes you can have huge frametime spikes as a result of shader compilation or traversal stuttering which is...

Seriously! I was thinking about a next gen Toyota 4Runner, until I saw the Tacoma got a $16,000 price hike for the TRD Pro model by going to the new generation. Oh well may just settle for a used one in a few years.

So Asus just released an "OLED Anti-flicker" feature that can be added to their existing monitors via firmware update: https://rog.asus.com/monitors/27-to-31-5-inches/rog-swift-oled-pg27aqdm/helpdesk_bios/ I'm not sure how well it works yet, gonna have to wait and get users feedback on it. But...
