ASUS ROG Swift PG32UQX Mini LED G-SYNC Ultimate Gaming Monitor – 32” 4K, 144 Hz , IPS, 1152-zone Local Dimming, 1400 nits brightness, G-SYNC Ultimate, true 10 bit color, DisplayHDR 1400, quantum dot

This is a true 4k mini LED panel, 32 inches at 144hz with HDR support. You are here considering spending double or triple more than the alternative monitors you are looking at, maybe you are considering a much larger OLED TV for use as a monitor. This was me.I wanted a next gen monitor, the 32 inch size was a managable step up from 27 inch one I had been using for 6 years, I was slightly worried about the size but in the end on my desk it fits fine. I positioned it on the corner of my desk which has a curved edge and easily the stand fits on fine. I seem to sit almost the same position with the old one, and it is comfortable.The picture is awesome, obviously. I play FPS games and to upgrade from 1440p to 4k is amazing, it is almost like hacking I can see details so far away. I was concerned about the response time being 4ms instead of the "competitive" standard of 1ms, but the effect of this has not been noticeable at all, 4k makes the image crisp so there's no noticeable blur and I have no problem reacting to people coming around corners. The HDR and local dimming bring the screen dark/shadows to oled TV standards, all fit neatly in your 32 inch at your workstation. I had also read and seen screenshots of haloing light spots around the mouse on a black screen and was concerned, and I can confirm this is the case, it is to do with the dimmable zones on the screen reacting to your totally white mouse on a black background, but this is not a phenomenon you notice in normal use and definitely not when it comes to gaming.The advantage of this monitor over everything else out there is that 4k is amazing at 144hz, this screen offers amazing a fantastic 4k picture at 32inch and with GSYNC ultimate so you can pump the frames with the best of the current generation of GPUs (3080ti/3090) you need one of these at least. The next level monitor specs will make sure it will last many generations, you will replace the GPU long before the monitor. I bought my last monitor in 2015, the ROG Swift 27inch 1440p at 144hz, that was a similar generation pioneering model as well, and I imagine the new specification will remain relevant and competitive for just as long. In the meantime I can enjoy being able to see better than everyone else during gaming and so having this expensive advantage.And yeah you really are going to need a 3080ti or 3090 to really get those frames and resolution up for a demanding 4k. There is a website called "HowManyFPS" which calculates what FPS your favorite titles will run at 4k with which graphics card.Edit: I saw a comment complaining about defects on the screen, I can only say I didn't have any. Your opinion on Amazon returns will guide your decision on that.

It's a lovely monitor - if very expensive - but when it arrives with this fault from power on you have to question the QC process. Amazon won't consider a replacement process for 72 hours for some reason I don't understand, fobbed me off on ASUS who initially stated they'd replace with refurbished unit. Currently being escalated at ASUS but a pretty poor experience so far.Update 28/08Escalated by ASUS but no response yet. Amazon unable to immediately arrange replacement as it is a high value item so I now have to wait for up three business days for them to faff around. That'll be a week since it arrived.Update 03/09Still no response from Amazon so arranging a refund. Shockingly bad customer service.

Love the hdr on it, the colours are great and picture quality is really clear, only issue I have is sometimes you get blooming so I had to turn off variable backlight to stop it from occurring, otherwise it's a great monitor.

This is advertised as a gaming monitor, yet it has a 4milli seconds response time, you can get monitors under 1000 that are 49inch with a 1milli second response, making them better than this for gaming. Absolute rip off product. And its only 32 inch, avoid if your not familiar with the technical jargon.
