Appreciate the kind words. Yes they were on my list but usually end up being more expensive (also all my Samsung products seem to break quickly in some way...but awesome when they work). I may try them or LG in the future.

Hey man, I think the flickering might get fixed by enabling 4:2:2 subsampling in the Xbox display settings and keeping the color at 8-bit. The HDMI 2.1 on this monitor is only 24gbs not the full 48gbs of true HDMI 2.1. The Xbox uses display stream compressing to achieve the 4K at 120hz on this limited bandwidth so setting those settings will probably help. The PS5 does not support dsc so it subsamples to 4:2:0 which means that you are only getting 2 colors per pixel instead of the 8 colors per pixel of the full 4:4:4 supported by a true 48gbs HDMI 2.1, It sucks that not all HDMI 2.1 are the same but can’t really do anything about it. However the Display port on this thing will support the full signal the monitor is capable of. Hope this helped man 👍

Got a Series X a while ago, and thought 120fps would just work on my 144hz monitor (1080p). Nah. Didn't know you needed HDMI 2.1 for that. I thought HDMI 2.0 would have it "just work" lol. These Gigabyte monitors seem too good to be true (built in speaker too, but still for much cheaper than well known, trusted brands like MSI...) but damn the price looks good for what you get lmao.

One thing I'd like to add about Freesync/Gsync is that yes, it's a fantastic feature that really helps when frame drops occur in games, but it mostly works with GPU-related frame drops, that is to say when a game's frame rate drops because of too many graphical features. However, if the hitching/stutter is because of a CPU usage spike (very large crowds for example spawning too many threads and the game isn't suitably optimized for it), or if it occurs because of an engine-related problem like asset streaming in many Unreal Engine 4 games (you walk foward and the game stutters as new assets and shaders are loaded), then these are things that Freesync/Gsync DO NOT AFFECT. Yes, they will automatically synchronize the frame rate to the refresh rate, but they do NOT eliminate stutters and hitches caused by factors outside of the GPU performance. I find that too many people think of this tech as a magic fix for all stutters, and it isn't.

Just ordered the 28 inch model of this monitor.

I picked up this monitor. I updated its firmware but with a PC. It’s good value but I miss OLED blacks, contrast, HDR (the M32U is connected to my PC only while I use my OLED TV for console gaming). It also developed a stuck/dead green subpixel after a couple of weeks (a minor annoyance). I consider it a decent bridge monitor until finally a 32” 4K gaming OLED arrives. The 42” C2 is still too large, and the AW3423DW is an ultrawide, and I’m simply incompatible with the format (recently sold the 34GN850). I’m considering the Neo G7 but I’m a bit afraid of QC issues and the 1000R curve… Edit: oh, and I’m not paying 4k bucks for the PG32UQX (it’s so pricy here in Poland), it’s simply not worth so much money with its blooming and slowish panel.

I hear you with the blacks on an OLED! I've considered (still may do it) a similar set up and just having an OLED for consuming content, and slower refresh-heavy games. With the way that I use my monitor, I’m pretty sure I would burn an OLED pretty quickly. But a dedicated optimized OLED gaming monitor would definitely be next level, and something I might have to pick up just to play games on. Hope we see something accessible on this front soon

Actually still need to hit a firmware update. But it's running flawless for me these days.

I recently bought a PS5 and I was told to get a 4K120HZ TV to get the full experience. I got the TCL R646 and I love it truly. The only issue is that i’m a PC gamer and love gaming on my desk set up instead of a couch/bed. Should I return the TCL R646 and get a 27” 4K120HZ monitor if so which one? (Gigabyte M28U or Samsung Odyssey G7) My thought is I could switch from playing on PC to gaming on the PS5 or do both while chatting with friends through discord. Ease of use. Or should I swallow my pride and just keep the TCL and forget about the monitor. Realistically I truly don’t see myself playing any FPS on the PS5 for now. (I played the COD beta & it was awesome on the PS5 but my controller days are behind me) The PS5 will be more for NBA2K23 and Madden 23 & single player games. Games like COD, Fortnite, Apex, Warzone will continue to be played on a PC.

@lbs

Жыл бұрын

Great question! I think I’d you’re happy with your current experience with your TCL, then you should keep it. Also, if you’re not planning to do any FPS games, then the slower response rate of a TV versus a monitor is not going to matter much. And as you said, you probably won’t be playing any FPS soon, you might… So I would still suggest keeping the TV and maybe saving up for a monitor in the future (they will likely be cheaper by then) if you decide to start playing more FPS games. If you still think you don’t wanna play FPS games at that point, then you have a nice little savings to go spend/invest in something else.

I haven’t found enough information on this on the Internet and it’s unclear whether this is normal or not. This worries me, because I am afraid that this may indicate a problem with the hardware and I will need to go and return the monitor, and also these sounds are very annoying and I need to constantly turn off the monitor completely.

My experience is still great w/ the monitor. I've heard things on both sides for the spectrum, where Gigabyte products are often a hit or a miss for users. Not many were in between. The biggest complaints I've heard over the years relate to the Q/A of their products where people sometimes get lemons w/ purchasing brand new. But I expect this being a possibility w/ any manufacturer & why I suggest grabbing this or any other major product from a reputable dealer/B&M store near you. This will make returns & exchanges way easier & cost effective. Like I said, my experience has been great, but that may not be the case for you/others depending on what you want out of your monitor & the QA related to your specific device. I say, if this seems like the monitor for you, try it out by getting it from a store near you, maybe try it against another your comparing it against, & return/exchange the 1 you like best. The decision will be best made by your own experience. Hope this helps!

The pixels will be more condensed on the 28 as well, so there might be a slight improvement noticed in the image.

Bought this monitor from Amazon and returned it. Mainly because of the humming noise whenever the brightness is below 80. When the brightness is over 80, my eyes get fatigue. There is definitely quality control issue. I ended up getting MSI MPG321UR-QD, it's more expensive than M32U, but the colour pops more and the build quality is much better.

Yea I would’ve done the same! I thought I would encounter a q/a issue from going w a “lower cost” option, but ended working out the inverse for me. Glad you got something you love!

Is this better than the gigabyte m270q-x??

@lbs

That might be a solid monitor but kind of a different class as it 1440. Probably very solid in the PC gaming space. The main feature/difference of the M32U & core of my review was that it is 4k 120hz & supports HDMI 2.1 to allow next gen consoles to max out.

Does this monitor support VRR and ALLM on Ps5?

M28u vs m32 same but different size ?

@lbs

Жыл бұрын

Yes, it seems that way. I haven't personally tested 28, but I'm told the 32 has slightly better response times & overdrive capabilities. You would probably be fine w/ either though as it sounds like differences are subtle.

I have the Gigabyte M32UC. Do you have HDR on or off? Im just wondering since this is HDR 400. I use SDR at the moment but people are so divided about this. What do you recommend? I mainly use the monitor for PS5. Thanks!

@lbs

Жыл бұрын

I do. However, as it is base level HDR, I am not sure how much of a difference it truly makes. I definitely recommend testing each out for yourself as SDR may be a better fit for you. Also, if you’re wondering, I have my HDR set with only 2 settings enabled, local dimming on and light enhance set to 1. Everything else is set to 0 or off. Hope this helps.

How so? Colors were solid out of box for me but I slightly color corrected and it looks great still. As for optimized for 120hz and such on PS5, that's done through the PS5 and game of choice settings.

So you said yourself "likely," confirming you didn't know my situation, but in the same instance you say "not to comment on things you don't know." Also, not sure how saying I was getting flickering issues is commenting on something I didn't know? Anyway, I hope whatever is rough going on in your life gets better and maybe you choose to bring others up.
