I liked this video BECAUSE.....you played around with the stand and monitor attached and showed me how much it will move up and down,which in just about all monitor videos people never do.Was pretty much much gonna buy this and now I am sure I will,was thinking about an ultra wide but this one is very nice and @3840 X 2160 mmmmmm..
Awesome unboxing review thanks. I just ordered its sister MAG321CURV. It's my first monitor, and it's for PS4pro gaming. Hope I love it as much as you did, and fingers crossed I get a defective-free monitor. Liked and subscribed. Cheers, enjoy!
Any chance you'd be able to do an update video on this? Pros, cons, etc? I just ordered one from B&H but they're waiting on a shipment. So I don't know when I'll have it.
I still love it. Has all kinds of options for confirmation, but I left it stock and used Windows to Semi calibrate it. When it's sleeping there is a little light that blinks so may not be good for a bedroom, but that's really my only negative I saw. It's huge and take up most of my desk too.
Yeah the video doesn't fully do it justice haha. It's not to much larger from side to side especially because the curve hides some of the size. However it's almost double the hight and that alone made a huge difference!
little typo on the title mate. cqr rather than cgr yeah? never the less, just got this ordered. cant wait to pick it up later at canada computers. hopefully it is as awesome as everyone seem to make it!. i plan to make it my main monitor for vid editing and gaming i guess. coming from a 24" asus mg248. cheers!
Hey man, I can't find this info anywhere so hopefully you can help. Is the little shiny blue port on the back an optical out port? I'd be looking to buy this for PS4 gaming and need an optical out port to connect my Astro headset to it.... Thanks for any help you can give!
It's just a monitor USB extension unfortunately. But you should be able to connect the HDMI to it from the PS4 and Connect the optical from the PS4 to the headset directly without any need to go to the monitor. You can change the sound settings on the PS4 to optical. Good luck!
Hello thank you for your question. I answer this question at the 3 min mark of this video. In the future i would request you watch the video, but yes it does come with a DisplayPort cable or at least mine did. Thank you for checking out the channel!
MAG321CQR and MAG322CQR... 321CQR is more expensive but 322CQR is 165 hz and 321CQR is 144 hz.. what is the difference between the two? also did you test g sync?
From what I understand the MAG322CQR is the older model. It has less of a curve to it and a lower color but depth. So the MAG321CQR is better. That being said you may be able to get the 322 cheaper do to this. The 321 has freesync where as the 322 does not, I have not be able to test it yet as most of my usage has been with video editing and I haven't had a chance to play games with it yet. Thank you for your questions!
@@TheAverageBeau But when i compared their specifications, they turned out to be the same. Furthermore, the 322CQR model contains 165 Hz. what is it that makes the model 321CQR more expensive?
Check this comparison. The 321 has freesync better color bit depth and a more defined curve. Otherwise one is just a newer model of the other so it's cheaper for that reason. I don't see where the 322 is 165 hz so I can't speak to that. 144 is where most screens live so the extra 21 hz doesn't really help much. Otherwise maybe supply is changing the prices. www.bhphotovideo.com/c/compare/MSI_MAG321CQR_vs_MSI_MAG322CQRV/BHitems/1472054-REG_1501493-REG
@@sait571 Yeah, I am sorry. I am not sure how you have a link to that. as far as MSI's official US site goes that does not exist and i can find no purchasable link or informational link outside of the one you provided so that may not be available in my area or something. as far as i see they only have 3 32" models. 321CQR, 322CQRV, and 322CR. Not sure how to help you here. maybe that's a future model or something.
I bought this monitor for the ps5 but it says 1080 at 60hz. How do I change this? The ps5 hdmi.2 fits like it did with old monitor but it has no signal. When I use the hdmi that came with monitor I get 1080 at 60hz. PLEASE HELP
The PS5 doesn't do 1440p (2k). Sony may eventually add support but they haven't yet. So the PS5 currently only does 1080p and 4k. I would recommend this tv for the PS5, www.bestbuy.com/site/samsung-32-class-q50r-series-led-4k-uhd-smart-tizen-tv/6364277.p?skuId=6364277

I hope you like it! I'm sure it will be amazing with a PS4 Pro. I have been playing Warzone lately. If you use it for that it will be epic! Good luck!
@@TheAverageBeau thanks! it was also good timing for what a year it was, played warzone too and it was epic! haha

Same here, been on backorder for about a month
thanks for mentioning B&H, i ended up getting the curv version for a good discount from them and a side gift for being delayed :)
how do you chagne it from display port to hdmi? i cant figure it out
It looked bigger on the first shot, the seconds seems just like a 1-2" more.

Thank you kindly, I hadn't noticed. I have updated it! Thanks again!
cant wait to have that reaction like urs when u finally got it running and changed to 1440p

LG 29" Ultrawide monitor ?
My old one was an ultrawide. The new one is a 32in curved.
@@TheAverageBeau How many inches of the monitor which is the LG brand . You have a first Monitor. Ultrawide 29 ? 27?
29, it's a 29UM60. 27 ultrawide is to short in my opinion. 29 barely meets a decent hight.
@@TheAverageBeau thanks Bro
What's up?
noooooooo not a power brick! Its 31" Monitor dammm bad move. Good job its a decent monitor but dammmm.
Completely agree!
shit i just bought this on sale and idk if itll fit on my desk lol oops
