Just FYI, a 1/4-20 thread standoff will also work for raising a camera on the top of the mount. Bonus factoid: the finials on top of lamps is the same thread. If you ever need to temporarily secure a camera, and don't have a tripod: remove finial, install camera.
Though this $1,100 monitor looks like a behemoth, it looks more like a Ferrari/Lamborghini class thing on the market due to its spectacular specs. Even business use while not gaming should always handle these gentle giants with proper care.
Between this and the LG39GS95QE (same panel display), I do appreciate the LG's stand ergonomics, it makes room for placing "stuff" under the monitor much more accessible and can push it further back towards the wall as I have a 60x24 inch adjustable hight desk. I am an Asus fan, really wanted to go with this but unfortunately the base stand was a deal breaker for me...
I'm playing on it right now, reached 292 fps and the quality... its a pure beast, was afraid of 800r Curve but now i can't do without it, its so perfect for immersion
Great monitor for HDR due to OLED panel and high brightness ideally for HDR content ( gaming, video ) you want increased contrast, and high brightness. This excels in both respects. Keep in mind though though you do need to toggle between the two as desktop environment is SDR not HDR. Otherwise a great choice for HDR. Hope this helps.
@@ASUSUSA I do still have the issue (i'm owning this monitor since a few days) that the colors are a bit "flat" / less punchy in HDR mode, would love to see the racing profile color setting in combination with HDR. Have to look into it, but i don't think that's possible atm.
I'm interested in how the screen functions when editing documents, both in terms of the fact that it's oled and because of the curvature? I personally use the computer only for gaming, but others at home use it for editing documents, and making a system for the school... Also- love your content!
Checked out the price and was absolutely shocked by how cheap this monitor is compared to other 240Hz screens. I still prefer using multiple 165Hz monitors that cost less and can easily be upgraded, but for those with a little extra money to spend, this is an amazing recommendation.
SAY WHAT it does pip and pbp cool i am buying this one i been looking for one that does this also thank you for reviewing the pip and pbp allot of monitor reviewers skip out on this thank you
My cat has peed on my screen and now it's getting worse every day. I want to replace it by an oled screen, but i have few needs. Totally flat screen, so when he will do it again, all the liquid will fall on the desktop, not going inside the screen. Can you confirm the screen is flat ? And pdp (i don't need kvm, i have an external kvm). My setup is gaming computer on dp. Working computers on hdmi / usbc. Is it easy to switch back and forth from theses 2 configurations ?
I bought a new monitor and didn't pay attention to the dimensions. I was just like "ooga booga, need new monitor, 1440p, over 144hz, click order" Two days later I get a 34" behemoth in the mail. It's taking me some getting used to.
It's amazing how relentlessly alienating all the model numbers are for every monitor from every company, like there's no way you could remember that off the top of your head and recommend it to a friend without a script in front of you, but they don't care, and haven't cared for decades. I guess this is how you get to act when everyone has to go through you to enjoy their $800 GPU. You'll buy alphabet soup and like it.
You said you are still running Windows 10, if you're not a Mac fan, you might be disappointed with Windows 11. From the start menu to the settings app, they seem to be trying to make Windows 11 look closer to Mac OS. Linux has a lot more support for games and graphics cards now.
You have to remember, though, that a video of this nature takes several days to do everything from building a relationship with a brand, to scripting, to testing and reviewing, to recording, editing, and post production. And I'm paying my editor. A monitor doesn't pay the bills, it's not the same as receiving a paycheck from a company. So yay, new monitor, but that comes with a lot of free labor to make a video.
I play on PS5 and Xbox Series X and was thinking on getting this Monitor. Do you think this Monitor will work with consoles?
I was just looking at this monitor the other day. Thanks for the review!
Hope you enjoy it!

34 is the same height as a 27, 39 is the same height as a 32 inch. 39 is very nice in person. I have the LG 34 it's awesome.
Love ASUS hardware. I have 2 of their routers and I am really happy with them. Thanks for the review!
Me too! Currently running my old PC off a rog motherboard and it's a champ 4 years later ✨
Hi Shannon. Fan since Hak5 days. Did you need to calibrate the monitor for color right out of box? Thx
I'm playing on it right now, reached 292 fps and the quality... its a pure beast, was afraid of 800r Curve but now i can't do without it, its so perfect for immersion
You had me at KVM.
This may be my new monitor this year. Thank you Shannon for the review and the great videos!
thanks for reviewing this monitor. curious: how's the HDR look on it? I'm wondering if it can serve as a nice movie display as well.

When I press the menu button, it needs 5-6 seconds to show up, are you same with me or my monitor problem?

Great review video Shannon. i have added this item to my Amazon wish list. Thank you.
Do you still have the networking upgrade video in the queue? I have been looking forward to it.
That monitor looks so awesome. I'm just worried I would need a new desk to support it. Haha.
The screen is actually lighter as my 27-inch 4K LG display from 2017 ;-) Well, without the footstand (i didn't check that out).
Very Big thanks for good and clear english speaking😊
Have the monitor since yesterday.. brilliant display, etc. but the curve is "different", don't know if I really can get used to it.
i find a little strange that does come with DP 1.4, it does not make sense to use it having a HDMI 2.1 that got more bandwidth...
Great overview of this monitor. I would love to try video editing on a monitor like this.
SAY WHAT it does pip and pbp cool i am buying this one i been looking for one that does this also thank you for reviewing the pip and pbp allot of monitor reviewers skip out on this thank you
Thanks for sharing. Nice monitor. Blessings on your day.

I think you should do a PC build video.
Interesting product from ASUS. In search of Incredible!! Will this monitor support monitor arms?
Yes, it supports VESA mounting.
Tk U for sharing, researching for a new monitor
Absolutely!
Nice video 😊

😆 gotta check those dimensions!
@@ShannonMorse Being on Amazon with money is dangerous. Lesson learned, the hard way.

Now do the new BenQ programming monitor!
Ok new computer but this time do a Linux setup.
Ooooh now that is shiny!

TekSyndicate has some useful vids on his channel about de-crapifying 11/making it more ten-ish.
Asus sent it out? For free? How nice of them..
