I was able to buy this monitor when it was discounted for 729$ plus i had a 175$ gift card with amazon so the monitor before tax cost me only 554$. I knew this was going to have the old gen 1 screen. The text fringe doesnt bother me at all as im the distance to where its barely noticeable. Plus with the 3 year warranty this was a no brainier for me. The X version coming out while has a 2nd/3rd gen did not give me a reason to wait cause its not enough of a difference to justify it more likely costing 200-300$ more if going by speculations. 2/3 gen will still hit true black 400 or peak 1000 like 1st gen so i think this is the best for the price.

It's realy nice to see the arrivals of ultrawide 34" monitors with a refreshrate of 175hz plus wide gamut, which I don't have on my Acer Predator 32" and I find pretty disturbing. The refresh rate is high enough to not see any flickering anymore. I have however seen a review of a 540hz screen which is a serious step up in experience, described as looking through a window instead of looking at a monitor. At this refresh rate a human does not see any ghosting anymore. There is no real difference between 175hz, 240hz, 360hz. The magic seem to happen above 500hz. This monitor has still many disadvantages, having a 1080p 24" TN panel. But I guess/hope monitors like the MSI MAG 341CQP with 540hz refresh rate aren't that far away anymore.

I think the LG 39GS95QE is the only one I know so far at this 39" size, and is not yet landed in EU. Also not perfect, since it's WOLED (worse than QD-LED in my opinion) and still 3440x1440 (lower dpi than 34"). I come from an IPS LG 38GN950-B and it was almost perfect (both size and res). I never thought that in 2024 it was not going to have an oled replacement without any sacrifices.

you'll want either 1440 or 2160 for flexibility when watching content.. then whatever size has a ppi low enough that you can tolerate. 1440 is by far better, oleds need high fps to mitigate sample and hold blur, you can't get that at 2160p ultrawide which is 10k pixel count

It’s an inherent challenge with OLED technology.

Worth reading around from owners to see how it’s helped. Asus also updated the firmware on their PG27AQDM so there def seems to be a focus from manufacturers on improving this area

This problem doesn’t appear in “borderless full screen” and doesn’t appear on other ultrawide dive tested.

Will it be set to the maximum refresh rate supported by both source device and the display, which would be 120 Hz in this case, with input latency being roughly equivalent to that at fixed 120 Hz? Did I get that right and is this how all VRR implementations operate? Or does HDMI VRR work differently compared to FreeSync/G-Sync? Or the displays refresh rate follows the source frame rate with input latency changing with it dynamically, so that if the source won't output in >60 FPS there would be no benefits with VRR enabled in terms of input latency? I'm sorry for bothering you with these questions, you don't have to bother really.

@juanblanco7898 the input lag will be tied to what is set as the selected refresh rate, as if you weren’t using VRR. So in your example for a console it would align to 120Hz. I don’t think I’ve ever seen VRR add any meaningful additional lag either

I suppose it really depends what frame rates you’re reaching in your games.

It's just that your test made me think about your graph with the input lag. Lowest with 175hz, rather terrible with 60hz and me somewhere in between. But I guess I was thinking wrong there. 175hz withouth the proper fps to back it up will not on it's own give me low input lag, or will it?

@GODzillaGSPB yes it would actually. The lag is linked to the refresh rate you have the screen set to, regardless of your achieved frame rate or VRR situation.

@@tftcentral I'll give it a thought. I'm using the 144hz ceiling to lower fps for games that use Frame Generation. These can easily hit the 168 fps (which is the natural ceiling, imposed by Nvidia reflex I guess, when running 175hz), which usually also maxes out the graphic card, meaning high power consumption and heat. Setting the monitor to 144hz eases this down a notch. I'm living in a country where air conditioning is uncommon, so saving a bit in terms of heat and power consumption is a plus for me. ^^ Most games running with Frame Generation do not work well when I impose an artificial fps limit (via RTSS for instance), so the "natural" ceiling via monitor frequency is the only way. So, in short: This probably has more benefits for me than the slightly better input lag with 175hz I guess. PS: I did notice that you never actually answered my initial question about 8bit + FRC versus 10bit. So I'd like to ask again, do you have any experience with that? I saw no difference with the naked eye, so in general, apart from the very specific idea with the ceiling for FG, 175hz would be the way to go, even over DP. You see it differently?

That’s discussed in the video. We prefer this for several reasons, despite the lower refresh rate. Screen coating, text clarity, curve steepness and price!

Funny how we all draw different conclusions. Anything with a 800R WOLED panel, like that Asus monitor, would be at the very bottom of my OLED shopping list.

@tftcentral fair call, if you were to disregard the curvature, text clarity and price does that make the pg34wcdm a better choice?

@a5cent yeah I actually preferred the more aggressive curve so that's very true

@@Vaznazza I struggled to answer your question because a lot of subjective opinions go into defining what counts as a "better monitor". A competitive gamer might say the 240Hz refresh rate on the Asus is better, but the vast majority of humans will never be able to tell a difference. Also, the sort of competitive gamer who cares about that cares nothing about color or viewing angles or anything beyond refresh rates, so they would be looking for a 27" 400Hz monitor. None of them are shopping for 34" ultrawides. WOLED achieves higher brightness, so the Asus would be slightly better for HDR content, but that gets into an area similar to the coating you wanted to disregard. Ultimately, if you like and want the 800R curvature, then none of the QD-OLED monitors matter. None of them can ever be better for you.
