I dont mind the names!
ASUS & LG are really killing it with their oled monitors. I also love that this monitor includes a heatsink which will add to its longevity
LG is garbage, they don't even put heatsinks in their monitors and have the obsession of ruining their panels with god awful matte coating.
LG makes the panels. ASUS just adds the UI and Gamer Aesthetics
I personally like the lg monitors over the asus ones since I have heard of so many quality control issues with asus it is insane. idm that the LG ones are a bit dimmer, aslong as the monitor lasts for years and burn in on it takes more time to form for LG, I will always take it over asus personally.
I wonder can you even drive 480 hz with hdmi 2.1 1440p ? I think its only DP 2.1
@@Djuntas hdmi 2.1 I Think your fine, dp 2.1 would be better optimally though and I still don't get why companies haven't switched to this yet lol.

That upward price creep is how they normalize inflation.
A few months ago I thought I'd never spend $1000 on a GPU, but here we are.
@@oswaldjhinflation or just price gouging?
@@oswaldjh It's downward price creep. The original 27" 1440p 240 Hz Asus OLED was around 1200 € (or more?) when it released. This is 1100 € despite the inflation and more premium performance. Still quite much, but the direction is good.
haha right? it says a lot about this space when a few years ago if I heard a flagship monitor was $1,000 id be flabbergasted that anyone would consider buying it, but now i hear that price tag and my first thought is "...wait that's actually a lot more reasonable than i expected" ☠️ maybe ill grab one in a few years when 600hz OLED drives the price down lmao
I appreciate that there is no intro and outro and no begging for likes/subscribes. Straight to the point and keeping it to the point.
so expensive
Too bad that there are no scientific tests.
thats why i like optimum
@@manoftherainshorts9075 did you even watch the video? He literally showed a graph of the pixel response time, and overshoot, along with slowed down footage so we can compare different monitors
He is god
I've been waiting for THIS review since the monitor was announced. I am not disappointed. Finally time to upgrade!
do you have a graphics card that can do 480 fps? No? Didn't think so. So you don't need/want to buy this foolish waste of money garbage monitor.
Alex, if someone is considering a 1000$ monitor, it is highly likely they will have a pc capable of running games at 480fps. Competitive shooters are not difficult to run at 1440p with the current hardware that is out. Also why tf you telling ppl what they need or don’t??
the ASUS software is slow and buggy. Being forced to use DSC and swapping from 480hz to 240hz to play certain games with a second monitor was insanely annoying. And it takes a full 2 seconds to alt tab at 480hz when the M10S takes half a second to alt tab at 480hz.
ASUS has notoriously bad customer service and slow repair times. Do not buy ASUS. The M10S is MUCH BETTER
Alt tabbing with DSC taking ages is a nvidia driver bug that has been known for years at this point. AMD doesn't suffer from this.
Maybe pitch that to a nvidia contact if you have one so they fix that.
I was wondering why it only started when I upgrade to my samsung g6 (1440 360 oled)... annoying asf in games like valorant or when you are just trynna stream to some friends
@@sharkscanplay2890 true but i guess that forces u to alt tab less and focus more on the game lol
but if thats the draw back for a 480hz 1440p oled then i think thats worth lol
@sh1nenkai258 I mean the issue is it causes problems sometimes
Like altabbing out of val it would cause my mouse to be stuck on the screen and anytime I click it would alttab me again. Seemed to be far worse on win11 than win10. On win10 honestly I haven't had any major issues besides just running 2 monitors at 2 different resolution and refresh rates which has always caused problems anyways
@@sharkscanplay2890 for me (aw3423dw), this seemingly only happens if the game is running a different res or refresh rate than what is on desktop. Or hdr program to non hdr desktop.
Not sure if thats true for you guys though.
who alt tabs? i run everything windows full screen
0:23 "480hz make 240hz looks like a slide show"
bro STOP 240HZ IS LITERALLY MY DREAM MONITOR FOR NOW T-T
They got em selling for cheap on ebay
I sold my 32 in 2k 240hz for $300 on it a lot of them sell around that so for even low specs you can get cheaper. I wouldn’t go too old tho.
Its probably true, im saying probably because i am on 280hz, and sometimes the monitor defaults itself back to 240hz, and i can even notice that. Dont get me wrong its not like 144hz vs 240hz noticeable, but i still do. On the other hand 144hz really does feel like a slideshow right now after 5 years of 280hz

I really appreciate that you use slow motion to really show the smoothness differences between the refresh rates. I don't really see that being done in other places and it's one of my favourite part of your reviews of these high refresh rate panels.
Except he didn't tell you what the subjective effect is, did he? You can do exactly the same demonstration (fluid vs "slide show) with any frame rate, it just depends what kind of slowing down factor you choose. These demonstrations show nothing, except that they visualise the ratio between 480 and 240.
He's selling you on it like a door to door salesman. At no point is this difference that perceivable.
@@DrakonR it's very noticeable, especially if you play high movement tracking shooters.
Motion clarity matters when you have fast movement.
If you play anything else on the monitor, it's literally pointless. You don't need the extra motion clarity at all when everything already moves slowly.
@@changen4125 it isn't. I've tried it. Go sell BS to someone more ignorant. 👍
@@changen4125 Blind tests were conducted and some individuals did not have a great success rate in discerning between different refresh rates (and those tests were run at much lower frequencies than 240Hz, i.e., where the differences are easier to detect).
dude idk what it is but this video felt like I was there in the studio with optimum and he was just my friend talking about this crazy monitor. And I dont mean it in a bad way, it was great to watch, relaxing, informative, professional and yet it had that casual vibe that makes it more appealing and easier to follow and keep your interest. I dont know what it is but keep doing what you do cause the last vids have been great man!
I bought this one in 240hz with a glossy panel and it’s craaaazy good. The colors are amazing!
Love your videos man, you're clearly knowledgable about displays and waste no time for the viewer who is mostly just interested in learning about these crazy new monitors. Appreciate you.
4:20 This is actually an issue that has plagued Nvidia GPUs for ages now (specifically DSC). This behaviour is because of full-screen applications together with DSC, if only the company worth trillions could sit down and fix it like AMD has.
Why not use windowed boderless? It supports all features like vrr and hdr and alt tabbing is so seamless.
@@nathsabari97 adds input delay/lowers fps, less noticeable on newer hardware but it's still there. spending this much money on a monitor and losing out on noticeable performance from running on windowed fullscreen seems very silly
@@ezwz4267 This was only true a while back. Dx12 and windows dwm have improved a lot and most games skip exclusive full screen option and even the fullscreen options are actually borderless these days

You can't be serious boys. Just about any competitive game you can name can hit that 480 on a higher end PC build. CS2, Valorant, League of Legends, Rocket League, Dota, Siege.
The only way to justify a monitor like this is for playing competitive games, and all of the top contenders are extremely optimized.
Good to see that modern monitors are finally achieving crt motion clarity
I’m on the pg27aqn after watching your review of it so I definitely won’t be upgrading 360hz to 480hz but it’s crazy how it was all 144 or 240 for the longest time and now we have 480 at 1440p
Man for real, I have the Alienware 360hz oled and I never thought I’d even consider 240hz. I’m curious if the clarity is better on this 480hz like he said.

I actually think the lower brightness on the elmb mode would not be an issue to me. It always surprises me how bright everyone's pc is.
No display I own goes over 30% brightness, except for my phone when I'm outside.
Same. My Asus LCD 27" 280hz monitor is literally at 0 brightness AND I use f.lux for the red tint
Haha same. When u read the comments there are people everywhere complaining about OLED brightness - have they ever even seen an OLED in real life or do these people just use sunglasses in front of their screens? Otherwise: they literally burn their eyes...
For real lol I literally use my IPS monitor at 3% brightness
elmb is only available at 240 hz btw
That reminds me, my laptop spends the bulk of its operation at minimum backlight.
Still praying to see one day a 4K 27" 240Hz (or beyond) incurved OLED monitor
Me and youm both!
You probably won't not in the near future if at all the only way for that to happen if more fps gamers use 4k monitors and how things r standing that' won't happen since majority that plays 4k prefer 32 inch+ and sadly not Many wants to play 4k 27 inch but im😮 not one of em I do want 4k 240 Hz 27 inch

Lets just be real here
27" is just the perfect monitor size for everyday use
Just got the 240Hz version of this in 27" after using 24" for years, I totally agree!
27" 1440p 144hz+ is all anyone really needs lol.
I agree about the size, but OLED is far from perfect for "everyday use". Burn-in and diminished text clarity haven't been addressed yet (the panel of this new 480Hz monitor still has a "W" pixel in the subpixel layout that messes with text clarity). Even for gaming, VRR flicker would be unacceptable to me. I'd take a lighter background level any day (IPS).
after going to 32 i can't go back.
@@RelaxSimmerYeah I'm about to try 32" 4K after running 27" 1440p for years. My gpu can't really run 4K but with dlss should be fine (3070)

i cant explain how smooth, clear and instant it feels.
im comming from a 390hz ips display and was impressed how much of a difference it actually was.
colors look amazing and i was shocked by the deep blacks that made me think my pc doesnt boot even though it was a black loading screen...
Really a massive upgrade for every esports junkie.
Can you please tell me how good the 25 Mode is ?
What GPU do you have? I feel like you would need a 4090 to achieve those frames needed.
@@NochaGaming yeah you need kind of a high end gpu to get those frames, but what also helps is the diffrence between oled and lcd, since oled had quicker pixel response times, so you get less ghosting
how did you get it a week ago? it just released today when this video came out and not even available to order yet?
jump for lcd and oled is a lot for sure
Cool. I'll add this to my wishlist.
Ill probably buy it 5 years from now.
Lets go I was really hoping optimum made a video about this monitor
What about the matte screen finish? Seems like a bit of a deal breaker to me. Is it semi-gloss like the QD-OLED or matte like IPS?
It's the grainy matte like on lg27gr95qe and It's even worse than most ips monitors
@@SkorpionHG no its not stop spreading misinformation. you dont even own an OLED. The coating on any OLED is FAR SUPERIOR then any IPS. the monitor specs are far more important than the coating. i have this monitor and thought it was glossy untill i saw a review

its pricy but honestly , just get the asus woled if your looking to spend , if not just get IPS, i wouldnt get one of the cheaper QD OLED, the brightness is honestly unusable in the light, and the glossed coating they use is complete terrible in the light, it was borderline unusable with the way the text colour fringes.

I truly don't understand what he's on about with the SDR brightness not being enough. My LCD monitors are not particularly bright and I have them set them to like 25/100. Bro is burning his retinas the fuck out.
Nah its an issue with all oleds during daylight or in a bright room. The monitors simply arent bright enough is sdr unless you play in a dimly lit room or use HDR. You won't understand until you use one. Seeing my odyssey oled g6 at 100% brightness next to my pg27aqn with 60% brightness is clear.
As someone who never had my phone brightness above 25 percent (OLED). I own the 240hz OLED anf i was the same boat but its not bright enough. I ran my old monitor at like 50-65 brightness and dont like bright monitors, but these lg WOLEDs look their best with some brightness. I play in a normally lit room and i run my monitor at 100 all the time and wish i could turn it up another 20. It just doesnt pop like my phone or my OLED tv.

It should be at the frequency of the monitor so it should be a higher pitch, may be less of an issue at that point.

Stop motion.... Lol
This "slide show" nonsense is unhelpful hyperbole. I rather would have liked to hear what the subjective difference is, ideally using a blind test. How reliably can he pick between a 240Hz and a 480Hz setup? Using normal gameplay, not special testing? I'm not saying it won't be possible to differentiate 480Hz from 240Hz, but I'd like to see the receipts.
@@coolcat23 its the same as how you can tell 30 from 60 or 60 -120
@@coolcat23 Let me help you:
"what the subjective difference is": When you are tracking a moving object, you will perceive the width of the smear as exactly half that it was at 240fps. And when a motion is relative to your eyes position and you see a trail of sharp afterimages, you will perceive those to be separated by exactly half the spatial length than they were at 240fps.
"How reliably can he pick between a 240Hz and a 480Hz setup": probably 100% of the time in less than a second of moving the camera with the mouse.

I returned the 4K 32 inch 480hz LG due to lower brightness/uncertainty and I kind of regret it. Absolutely insanely good monitor. 480hz is AT LEAST twice as good as 240hz imo, not due to response time or latency but motion clarity. But I want to wait for a monitor that is a little bit better or for the prices to go down and get an even better sale than the one I originally got.
The monitor I have now is 1440p and I do miss that 4K but I like the brightness. We are so spoiled with monitor choices nowadays. Even the $200 budget-ish gaming monitors are crazy good
What would you recommend between this 27” 480hz at 1440p or the LG with dual mode
@@Whiss8They are both soooo good, you can't really go wrong. I think it depends on what you play. If you want to do 4k gaming/desktop use too the LG is the better option.
I think I am going to wait for the prices to go down or a better woled/monitor _with higher brightness._ dp 2.1 might enable them to push higher spec. + The new parsec module means lower prices. I don't know which coating I prefer yet also
I used a Rtx 3080 5800x3d for reference, I didn't really feel too limited by my system much besides Halo Infinite. My primary game is Overwatch and it was so amazing in both 4k240hz and 1080p480hz. If you do decide to get a monitor now rather instead of waiting make sure to use a price checker website to see if you can predict and grab it when on sale. I wouldn't pay more than $1200 if you are in the US for the LG. Asus is a bit more affordable and equal in quality just better at different things. I have heard some RUclipsrs like Hardware/monitors unboxed say they expect LG to be aggressive in their pricing discount
Either way you'll probably be really happy. These monitors are mostly god tier besides the brightness, maybe a little bit more color volume and non dp 2.1. The monitor I went back to the older Samsung G7 Odyssey qhd 240hz is still pretty amazing too and I will be happy using it in the meantime
@@willwunsche6940 thanks for your reply. I play mostly fps games thats why I am thinking the aqdp is maybe a good choice. I just got a 4090 though, so I am also thinking maybe its a shame to have a 4090 but not have a 4k display with it.
When you were using the 480hz mode, was the drop in quality really harsh on the 32" or how was it
@@Whiss8 It really depends on what game you are playing. Different games handle lower resolution better or worse depending on things like their art style, anti-aliasing technique, level of texture quality, and geometric detail.
A game like Overwatch handles lower resolution pretty well. While 4K does look a lot better on the heroes, menu artwork, emotes, extremely casual matches; in the heat of an actual comp game I don't really think about/mind 1080p too much versus the awesomeness of 480hz. Slight competitive advantage of visual clarity to qhd in fights vs 1080p _very slight._
A game like Halo Infinite handles it really bad though. It looks horrible at 1080p if I am remembering it right. I might've had dynamic resolution on making it worse but the game still looks a little bit blurrier at native res than other games. Although it having a good HDR mode helps a ton. The game features a TAA implementation that makes things blurry while moving and it is worse at lower resolutions. It also heavily relies off geometric detail and texture quality that looks blurry at lower resolution. Halo Infinite is a more extreme example though, most games including fps handle 1080p better/fine.
Meanwhile just for comparison some older or pixelated games like Minecraft or Mario Kart Wii are barely impacted and look great even at extremely low resolution.
I don't have as much experience with it but I imagine something like Apex Legends would be roughly in the middle of Overwatch and Halo Infinite. QHD probably helps you when seeing enemies far away a little. Same with Star Wars Battlefront and Battlefield. 1080p isn't too bad but qhd is nice.
I say trust your gut and go with what you think will be best. If I hadn't experienced 4k or 32inch the Asus monitor would probably be my only choice. If you want to go with the 1440p480hz that is a perfectly valid option. Still a top tier monitor I say go for it if you want it!
I want to reiterate what I said in the beginning. They are all so good still you really can't go wrong with either or if you wait for a new one

I assume that for a 480Hz display, it should be equal or less than 2ms. (roughly 1s/480Hz= 2,1ms). If not, you're wasting refresh rate in a game that is lying to you.
Although it would be ideal to have low ping as well, the increase in motion clarity makes it easier to pick out details, aim, dodge, etc. This benefit is about providing the same information in a clearer way to human eyeballs.
Then in terms of ping, true if you have 200ms ping you are seeing info from 100ms ago, let's say your machine's total input lag is 20ms, using a 240hz monitor, trimming the ping delay+input lag from 120ms by 2ms, while strictly beneficial, won't be very noticeable. However, let's say you're playing on 60ms ping. Now you're talking about cutting 50ms total by 2ms. Still not huge, obviously, but a 4% difference.
Well isn't CS2 supposed to be coded so you have to aim at the lie?
Let's put it this way: It does not matter what latency your PA-system has. Latency that matters is the one between your instrument and monitor. Just wild guess that music performance might be more up your alley.
If that was the case the. You’d need like 20 ping to notice 60hz to 144hz which obv isn’t the case
Your videos are really great man
Do you plan on putting the new 16g zeromouse for sale ? and if so when please ?
,,gonna sit on your desk for next 5 years" burn-in after 2 years enters the chat
None of my tvs (7 years) and monitors (3 years) have burn in yet and i do a heavy usage of productivity and games daily. The only people who fear monger oleds are the people who dont own one.
@@JagsP95 paid company shill
@@FaySmash Ah yes anyone who can afford something is a paid shill lmao cope
I use my HP X360 Spectre OLED for development.
It's 6 years old. The screen looks brand new.
Stop confusing RTINGS FUD with real life. Nobody runs their laptop/TV 24/7 with no break.
@@jefferyG499 I have plenty of mobile devices at work end even my private ones had all burn-in after about two years. If static elements like navbar/status bar/taskbar are visible they will burn-in, that's just how it works.
Linus from LTT also had to trash his OLED screen when moving offices because of burn-in..
0:16 These slowmo comparisons don't actually provide much value imho
I see alot of value in that. idk how you cant see any value in that comparison lol.
@@DeShnicky good for you lol.
480hz is overkill for 95% of people
360hz is more then enough for "most"
240hz is a wonderful experience IMO
165hz is good for like 75% of gamers
Also, that's a bad ass monitor & super impressive.
Buy what you want.
I play on a 4k 240hz oled. It's amazing
For me, overkill will only be when we reach life-like motion. And that's still very far away, we're talking tens of thousands Hz to solve motion portrayal on finite refresh displays. Until then those arguments are pretty pointless imo.
@@hastesoldat it's been proven that there are MASSIVE diminishing returns over 360hz
BUT to each thier own
@@TheRealDlo You mistook an uneducated opinion you found on the net for a proof. The science of motion portrayal is settled. What I said is an irrefutable fact. It just happens to not be well known by the public.
I watched a lab do a study on the subject. It wasn't uneducated, as they were a professional group. I may be wrong about the hz to be fair, but my recollection was 360hz was plenty for a majority of the public 👍
Either way, the motion on a monitor between 360hz & 480hz is unrecognizable by a majority of people. That's my point man. Wasn't trying to take it to the extreme & argue the simple law of persistence or regurgitate blurbusters.
You do you man.
🍎 v 🍊 conversation
Sure its overkill if u only play single player game 😂
Saving up to build out my setup in about a year, I can't wait to see how ASUS and LG innovate by then.
been waiting for this video, because I've ordered one and I'm so pumped :D HYPE israel
An amazing review as always ! Take care
waited for this monitor since you mentioned it few months back
ive expected this to be >1.5k, so 1k even if its steep its less than i anticipated
Awesome vid! was wondering what you think about the Koorui GNO2?
Hey I’ve been watching and enjoying your videos I was wondering if you could make a comparison video between a top of the line CRT and a top of the line OLED because of the sheer similarities of the benefits of technology.
In particular the motion clarity
love to see how much you’ve improved at overwatch!!
Just ordered it! Can't wait :D
okay its sweet. now where do i get one from? i've looked for hours and i cant find this specific monitor anywhere on sale
The one more smooth thing you didn't mention for this monitor is your aim :) its awesome ^_^
Between this and the LG 32GS95UE from your previous top 3 monitor video, what would you recommend or prefer? Thanks!
Alt-tabbing being slow is related to DSC, and anything over 8 bpc output color depth is REALLY slow
Would be nice if Nvidia fixed that, AMD GPUs don't have that issue.
Build a gaming setup! I would totally love to watch the process
Nice review !!! Love it !!!
I've been waiting for this
Hey! Thanks for bringing up the Alt+Tab issue. Does it also happen when switching between two non-fullscreen applications (e.g. a browser and Excel)? I could see that being terrible for productivity 😅
Awesome video, man! I have a question. What CPU and case fan curves do you recommend for a gaming PC with an Intel Core i9-13900K and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090? Thanks, and keep up the amazing work!
Which monitor would you recommend? This monitor or the MSI MPG 271QRX QD-OLEd?
The msi was on sale for 660 on amazon prime day. I’m currently running ASUS ROG Strix 27 (XG27AQM) - 240hz ips. I mostly play valorant.
Optimum, do you ever play with gsync compatible/adaptive on your monitors or do you just turn all that off?
This looks so beautiful. Curious what your in game Overwatch video settings are.
Cant wait for 500hz 4k resolution monitors FR😮
It be the perfect monitor
I love your video length, that’s one of many reasons I like u over LTT
Did you make sure to use HDMI 2.1 port instead of DisplayPort 1.4 so that the ALT-Tab black screen didnt appear? This was my issue when i first got my 10-bit monitor and it went away after using the HDMI 2.1 port
OUR GOAT FOREVER CASUALLY DROPPING THE GROSSEST OW CLIPS!!!!!!
Ooo this w-oled sounds fucking amazing, I was always concerned about the colour fringing but that's epic! :D
Great video. I would be really interested to see you do an entire video talking about the future of tech hardware (GPU's CPU's) and periferals maybe even how regenerative AI can be used in new GPU architecture based on your broad experience and tech knowledge. Could be a good way to look at cutting edge tech that was a standard at the time compared to now and what could be in the near future. Thanks for the quality content as always👍
This is sweet! Now I'm curious. Does this have a 32" 1440p 120 - 240hz IPS brother? And would it be cheaper?
I already have the monitor of my dreams at my current budget. At this point half the reason I still watch these is to indulge in Optimum's insane Tracer clips.
Gonna get one like this when I build next year with next gen hardware. But DEFINITELY want an upgraded DP port.
I love you, u are the greatest youtuber/creator in this category and im not joking i honestly think u are....
imagine jumping from an old dell business monitor to one of these. it'd be like taking drugs
Optimum can you make a review about Gigabyte Aorus FO27Q3 monitor i wanna see how good it is, looking to buy a great gaming monitor for awhile.
I bought the AQDM a year ago and it's wild to watch the new releases coming out almost every few months. Brightness is the main selling point for me, so I don't feel any desire to upgrade yet, but very curious to see where OLEDs are two years from now.
The alt-tab black screen issue, it's because of a DSC bug on Nvidia drivers, that has been a thing for years, and they dont seem to care to fix it.
Try it with a AMD GPU, and you get instant alt-tab :)
Yup
Every time I see OW Tracer v Tracer footage in your videos, I always wonder if I'm playing on the opposite team xD But it's such a good game to display high-grade screens both due to the frame responsiveness, how insane motion tracking scales with heroes like Tracer, and also the color variety and contrast depth that truly saturates the entire spectrum in a dynamic format. Especially the constant bright-to-dark-to-bright switches that are rarely found in other games, really puts a monitor through its paces and tests aspects that many other games would never get close to.
I'm a little odd in this case though, as I am all head over heels for ultrawide curved monitors (yes I play Tracer on a 32" 21:9 ultrawide monitor). All I wish for is for OLED panels for this screen format to come down in price and be more normal as alternative to VA and IPS. 1440x3440 30-34" is a goated resolution and size. Can't see myself ever going up or down from this format.
My new work laptop from Asus with their latest OLED panels is amazing tho. Just 120hz and I don't use it much for gaming, but man is the screen quality amazing and clarity is on another level.
Dude you seem really good!
How well does this do when it comes to burn-in?
Obviously having just come out there won't be any long-term tests, just wondering if there is information on whether the new OLED panels are better in that regard compared to older ones
