Great review and monitor. Sad to see that the VRR flicker is really bad on this model. I thought MSI figured it out somehow since 321URX scored a lot better than the rest of the OLEDs in your VRR flicker test. Perhaps it was just that specific unit that performed better. Do you have another 321URX that you are able to replicate the VRR flicker score you had in your review? Do you have 2 units of the same model of any QD-OLED where the VRR flicker results differ between the units?
I was debating about this monitor and the lg one and read your review a few days ago on both but I picked the lg 34gs95qe-b you mentioned, did I make a mistake? I am used to a 27" samsung odyssey g7 and I love the curve and I have a msi 165 hz 1440p ips as a 2nd monitor for youtube/discord. I still want to use one on the side after this comes. I have a 4080 and a 14900 K (wish i went ryzen but that's another story for another time). Would love your thoughts. Plz let me know. This is the first oled I will have. I also play both multiplayer games and single player games. Thanks for your help and love your channel and website. It's very helpful.
For competitive multiplayer, you shouldn't go for a wide curved screen anyway but like a 27 or maybe 32 inch high refresh rate OLED. Like the 1440p 480hz OLED. Unless you don't game seriously at all in multiplayer, get a separate monitor for single player.
Woooow, the vrr flicker just made me definitely not get this, that looks horrible, and im a big fan of freesync, so i would want to use that feature. Shame
VRR flicker is an even larger show stopper for me than burn-in. This really keeps me miles away from getting an OLED for anything gaming related. Many games have a lot of static elements too, so even gaming only won’t stop burn-in.
Regarding 3:08, my series x has all X’s except “your TV set up supports up to native 1440 at 120. I am considering returning it if I can’t figure it out. Can you please help?
@@hoang149 Alienware is also QD-OLED, but panel seems to be older and it is 165hz. Anyway I got the MSI and I am happy with it, I've returned the Alienware as it had slight coil whine
Luxury gaming focused stuff is so out of touch. How about reviewing a productivity monitor so that 99% of people can find something useful in your reviews.
@@Niropidthe flaws here are broken by design though and such a large issue that the monitor is unusable for many people. E.g. why advertise G-Sync or FreeSync when the monitor can flicker like crazy when using it. Showing that flaw and saying it comes as advertised is … well.
I have the monitor. in real world usage its amazing. Literally everything i do (music production, slight video editing, click tracks and of course gaming) look great or atleast dont have any blarring issues. No vrr flicker either.
What temperature does the monitor reach?
thanks i ordered it

Does the single usbc connection also pass the keyboard and mouse? So truly one cable to a laptop?
Yes

Same thought!

Are you using an hdmi 2.1 cable? The one that came with the xbox should work.
Alienware AW3423DWF vs MSI MPG 341CQPX what to buy?
MSI cause QD-OLED is better than OLED on Alienware also Alienware is really old product now

@ oh sr my bad, congrat bro
PLEASE REVIEW BENQ PD3205U (most monitors u recommend are not available in India so is it possible to recommend monitors available Amazon India)
I agree
I never seen any flicker. Is this only with consoles?
It occurs when the refresh rate changes rapidly and is most noticeable in loading screens. It happens on pc too not only console
The monitor looks so good!
It really is!
OLED very bad for productivity

Make your own reviews if you don't like his.
This guy is joking right? He said so many flaws of this monitor how can he say its great? ...wtf....piece of thrash monitor.
Are you new to monitors? Every technology has it's own flawes. There is no perfect monitor that can do it all
