> 3 dayThis monitor is an absolute gem. No, its not 4K resolution capable but youd never know it. Its gorgeous, its huge, its curved, and it immerses you in whatever your doing, completely. I have it coupled to my Sapphire Radeon 6950XT via a Displayport 4.0 cable, and it is simply outstanding. Well worth the money.

> 3 dayThis is my 2nd G5 monitor, I bought this to use it with another 27 G5. At the very begining the 1000R may be too strong for you but give it a shot, you will get used to it in a few days. In comparison, the Picture Quality of the 27 is slighly better than the 32 model idk why, but you may notice the color scheme kinda different in the photo, both have the same specs, brightness, contrasts, cable etc, the 32 model has a weird but sutil green tone, that cant be fixed in the settings, even if trying to calibrate colors in the RGB section. I managed to calibrate it pretty similar to the colors that I had in the 27 model, but they are not the same, and thats annoying. Another glicht I found was while using Display Port cable, the Low Input Lag function was not available in 144Hz, but I figured out that if you switch to a HDMI cable, it works then you can downgrade the refresh rate to 120Hz, and enable the Low Input Lag, then change the refresh rate to 144Hz and use the DP cable and you r good to go! Another tip that might solve any ghosting issues while gaming is to setup the Gaming Response Time Mode to Fastest

> 3 dayI played cyberpunk 2077, everspace 2, Rust, valorant and several other games on this monitor and I didnt experience any of the ghosting that the other reviews complained about. I did a ghosting test online and it was negligible at best. This monitor is the best Ive ever had, I put an ergonomic monitor vesa mount to make this thing rotate and line up perfectly with my head to remove neck cramps from looking up too much. The monitor stand it came with was flimsy but not terrible, however I dont use it now that I have the vesa mount. Ive watched several movies on this with Plex and the auto aspect ratio is actually pretty decent which is surprising considering most movies have black bars to create the right ratio. Playing games in this thing is very immersive. The refresh rate is great with 165hz, and little customizing is needed out of the box to get it just right. With a high end graphics card like from Nvideas RTX line, you cant go wrong. Im using an Nvidiea RTX 2070 super and this thing looks great. I even use it with my Mac Pro 2013 model and it also looks great, and it auto changes the display correctly so Windows or Mac this thing looks great. No more need for dual screens, just open two windows and put them side by side, its essentially the same thing, but now theres no plastic bar inbetween the two screens, just one seemless experience. If you are looking for the best monitor screen, I think this is it so far, especially price wise. I know there are better monitors that exist with better specs or bigger sizes, but this is really all the retail space youll ever need. I even find myself using it for movies, even though I have a 55 inch Samsung 4kHDTV which is surprising. Dont believe the haters, just get it and return it if you dont like it, but I think this is definitely a solid product that you will enjoy for years to come, and Samsung is a great company, great customer service, and high build qualities that last for a decade or more.

> 3 dayso i got this as a gift to myself and ive been working my butt off to get some new stuff i needed for my set up i honestly didnt want something this big but it works and fits where i needed it and the 32 fits well where i put it and has the foot print of a 27 inch monitor with the curve being so drastic make sure you get a very good arm cause shes heavy and it nearly face planted on my monitor arm a few times so i had to really wrench down the arms mount good it has all the features you come to expect from samsung great quality picture and all my only complaint is they dont have a 1080p 240hz version or that this monitor cant down clock to 1080p 240hz if needed to cause this would take over as my main monitor as the picture quality is great at 1440p 144hz dont get me wrong its just for me as a gamer i just dont know if i would use this as my main on fps games

20-11-2024Since buying this monitor it has proven to be a bit glitchy. It has at times not wanted to turn on causing my MoBo to give a VGA alarm/light. At first I thought it was my new video card, so I swapped it out to my old one and got the same alarm, put the new one back in then started messing with the power button on the monitor. Surprise everything is working fine again. Other than that glitch, I love this monitor, and will never return to a normal flat panel again. While gaming it has given me ZERO problems. No screen tearing, no vsync issues, and my frame rates have been very stable. Even my 3DMark scores have been out of this world for a stock clocked PC. Win 10 Pro 20H2 Asus ROG Stryx X570E mobo Ryzon 7 3800X cpu 32GB of Corsair ram Saphire 6700xt Nitro+ video card Update: After downloading then installing the 1006.0 firmware update from samsung all of the glitchy behavior has gone away. No more alarms, no more flickering with certain apps, and the power button now works properly.

> 3 dayThis monitor is fine, i just gotta figure out how to configure the colors more precicely. The only thing is, when you turn off the PC the monitor makes very high pitched two tone sound. It is unlikely many will hear this sound, you would only hear it if you were in complete silence like late at night. I guess its the standby tone listening for input signal for when the PC turn on. Its not annoying, but it is there if your hearing lets you hear things in that range.

> 3 dayOkay. I bought this monitor under the impression that it would refresh at 165hz. If this is so, why is it not going above 100hz??? Edit: Problem solved. I was just using the wrong port. -_- I KNOW IM A NOOB! Colors seem to be just fine for me with a couple minor tweaks. I use ReShade for gaming so this monitor has perfect lights and darks for me. <3
