    where is the aorus one ?

  2. @PharaoahMonk on December 16, 2024 at 7:46 pm

    my question is primarily for gaming, especially FPS, which one would be the best in terms of long term quality, performance, future proofing (i only change it once every 6-7 years) and i find that 240hz is really great and enough for any game but i’m torn between the w-oled and the qd-oled. between alienware and LG at the 240 hz. also love my monitor to have a speaker inbuilt as i use it a lot for mostly everything else but gaming. i appreciate the answers

  3. @ertohsp8650 on December 16, 2024 at 7:47 pm

    Zowie please switch the XL series to OLED and make the most smooth 1080p 500hz responsive DYAC black equalizer competitive screen of all time. Aint paying 1k for a TN in 2024.

  4. @VoxVictus on December 16, 2024 at 7:48 pm

    God I wish I could justify buying Asusโ€ฆthanks for the video either way though! Very informative.

    Should I get asus rog Swift oled pg32ucdp or ucdm

  6. @BobFudgee on December 16, 2024 at 7:52 pm

    This guys voice is so pleasant to listen to.

  7. @maxismadnice on December 16, 2024 at 7:56 pm

    I am currently running a 165 hz monitor 1440p, with a 2080 and i7 and am looking to potentially switch to a higher frame rate. Any recommendations for a 360hz monitor? willing to switch to 1080p to make sure my pc can keep up and not really trying to spend crazy ๐Ÿ˜… also just checking it out because of the sales this week

  8. @xStarblazer on December 16, 2024 at 7:57 pm

    How do you have enough time in your day to thoroughly test these things? It’s taken me a week solid so far and I’m still none the wiser if I’m keeping my 1440p 27 inch OLED or the 4k 32 inch OLED.

  9. @OliverStills on December 16, 2024 at 7:58 pm

    My only advice is to put the monitor name on the video, in case i need to pause and search for it at the same time, and not rewind about 5 seconds to try and catch you saying the letters again.

  10. @garethlynas5824 on December 16, 2024 at 7:58 pm

    Hey bud can u tell me wat is the best budget monitor for ps5

  11. @johnwayne4911 on December 16, 2024 at 8:00 pm

    pls for the love of god stop with the overwatch. 540hz only matters if you are playing the same damn 3 fps games that can actually HIT that many frames everyday, which most people are not.

  12. @tannerstueck8439 on December 16, 2024 at 8:00 pm

    I recently bought the LG dual and the 1080p is terrible don’t buy it for that mode, but the 4k is amazing but me personally I have a 4070 ti super and the latency is noticeable compared to my 1440p oled but the next gen 5090 could make this monitor good in ea sports content, remember 4k gaming is way harder to run then 1440p and for almost everyone I would recommend 1440p oled

  13. @nuffsed1459 on December 16, 2024 at 8:01 pm

    Hey man I was curious do you still recommand the MSI 271QPX over the XG27AQDMG?

  14. @BobFudgee on December 16, 2024 at 8:02 pm

    Yo the price of the first monitor mentioned jumpscared me

  15. @Shinvixv on December 16, 2024 at 8:03 pm

    The monitor costs more than my build ๐Ÿ’€

  16. @yacinesan on December 16, 2024 at 8:05 pm

    The thing about OLED now is that most of us can not afford them, while at the sametime we can not put our money on an LCD panel anymore,you can not ignore the hunting quality of OLED ๐Ÿ˜…

  17. @SpaceXForce on December 16, 2024 at 8:05 pm

    Love the 27" Alienware AW2725DF QD-OLED 360Hz monitor. Perfect contrast, 0.3ms response times, brilliant vivid colors, glossy finish, lightning responsiveness, all in a beautiful incasing with typical gaming features and a solid 3 year warranty. Best purchase in years.

    Go with a WOLED panel if you’re in a bright room, it’s a brighter panel good with reflections. If brightness isn’t a main concern QD-OLED makes games and content pop with it’s incredible color gamut and volume. It’s beautiful,

  18. @carlocop on December 16, 2024 at 8:06 pm

    1080p at 32 inches. What.

  19. @Ben-et8wh on December 16, 2024 at 8:07 pm

    2:32 so he rounded up on the first monitor, but not the second monitor lol which was $1 off rounding up XD

  20. @tobytorials on December 16, 2024 at 8:08 pm

    Great video! Iโ€™m looking for a good oled monitor for video editing and some gaming. Is for example the LG UltraGear OLED 39GS95QE-B also a good monitor or would you wait until 2025 for upcoming monitors?

  21. @ALEXANDRA.alleX35 on December 16, 2024 at 8:08 pm

    Idk wht gaming monitor should i buy chat ๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ™ngl somebody help me

  22. @crxmix7602 on December 16, 2024 at 8:09 pm

  23. @icenote1591 on December 16, 2024 at 8:11 pm

    Been considering the MSI 360hz but really wanted a curved version

  26. @johnwayne4911 on December 16, 2024 at 8:15 pm

    if you are a gamer, black levels are overrated as fuck. you want to be able to SEE in darkness.

  27. @garycalliham6643 on December 16, 2024 at 8:15 pm

    Thanks I just ordered the LG for black friday deal. was tempted with the asus as it was slightly cheaper but I am so done with ASUS and their horrible tech support and not supporting their products not a good company to deal with! so Figured it was worth a little more for a company that will hopefully support their product if there is a problem with it.

    I need ips. I study a lot so a lot of excel sheets and word documents. The burn in will be insane, and the text fringing would give me a headache trying to work on it

  33. @sijnk on December 16, 2024 at 8:23 pm

    Hey. Do you consider to test the new Dough Spectrum Black 32" ? WOLED with Gorilla Glas and 480Hz mode should be awesome.

  35. @philowen2167 on December 16, 2024 at 8:25 pm

    what do you think of the Gigabyte AORUS 27” QHD OLED 240Hz Gaming Monitor – AORUS FO27Q2. I wanted the 32" 4k but on PS5 im worried aboutl oosing FPS in cod.

  36. @guccibangs9216 on December 16, 2024 at 8:26 pm

    Just got the msi 360hz for black Friday sale.

  37. @hassanshalwala6224 on December 16, 2024 at 8:27 pm

    Sony has a 480Hz gaming monitor, will you talk about it?

  39. @brettsmith5311 on December 16, 2024 at 8:29 pm

    Somebody help me out please with my decision for Black Friday Iโ€™m torn between the MSI 274URWF & The Acer vg272K, as my top two but also considering the KTC H27P22S or maybe M27U. all 4k displays at 144hz or more with hdmi 2.1! I play on a ps5 and play mostly FPS games, if anyone has any input Iโ€™d really appreciate it.

    Can you share your overwatch 2 settings you use on your current rig and monitor

  42. @Shoedenmark on December 16, 2024 at 8:33 pm

    I wish they would make a glossy finish version of the dual mode olded. Monitors matte finishes just look horrible and I donโ€™t game with the lights on so I donโ€™t care about light reflecting

    What mouse is that?

  45. @Alex-HD on December 16, 2024 at 8:36 pm

    Can you use these monitors for work? I am worried about burn in when working 8 hours a day with design.

  46. @shade4278 on December 16, 2024 at 8:37 pm

    you cannot influence the result by adjusting the brightness and contrast ? 2:49

  47. @DEATHTRUTH on December 16, 2024 at 8:38 pm

    Coming to a video about Oled and walking away more impressed by a TN panel is crazy, but that 540hz is something else

  48. @rest0re871 on December 16, 2024 at 8:39 pm

    I had to return my OLED G9 because I’m the absolute worst candidate for one burn-in wise ๐Ÿฅฒ
    1. 12+ hours of use a day
    2. Play the same 1-2 games for thousands of hours before switching to the next
    3. Use it for work 6-8 hours a day with lots of static elements

    It’s too bad because the colors are unmatched, but the anxiety wasn’t worth it. I don’t want to hide my taskbar, use a black background, etc. That’s not what I buy a monitor for.

  49. @M_Dutch97 on December 16, 2024 at 8:43 pm

    Which of these four is best:

    Philips Evnia 32M2N6800M
    Acer Predator X32QFS
    LG UltraGear 32GQ950-B
    Asus ROG Strix XG32UQ

  50. @ambrika4927 on December 16, 2024 at 8:43 pm

    Why would you want a 32 inch with 1080p480hz for competitive gaming?
    I donโ€™t get the concept of that first monitor.
