After a little over 2 weeks of use, this has been the best gaming monitor I've ever used. While not perfect, the color accuracy, vibrancy, and buttery smoothness made this a winner in my book. Can't wait to keep gaming on this bad boy!

So I currently own both the G8 and the DWF and I’m genuinely stuck on what monitor to keep. The G8 has to my eyes a noticeably brighter and the vibrancy on it is just really amazing, don’t know why it may be that they use a better coating on it. Funnily enough I am also mildly Red Green color blind! So I will be using your reviews moving forward! To my eyes If I push digital Vibrancy on the Nvidia Slider to 70% vs the default 50 then the Alienware matches the color output of the Samsung and you get those stunning vibrant images, especially in true HDR content (meaning no Auto-HDR), my only issue with the DWF besides aesthetics (which I can live with) is that for some reason I don’t find the image as vivid on certain games, not sure if it’s that the Samsung is brighter and therefore gives me the illusion that the in-game lighting is brighter in games with bad lighting (the in game lighting in FFXIV kinda sucks) but when comparing on hdr videos or natively supported hdr games the picture is identical. So obviously a no brainer right? Keep the G8 and return the DWF but here’s the issue with that, the G8 actually has worse HDR EOTF tracking than the DWF and it’s noticable in side by side tests and just gameplay in general (don’t worry the HDR tracking isn’t terrible, it’s genuinely very good but when comparing the two side by side after the new firmware update the DWF is noticeably better in peak brightness hdr scenes (samsung tends to overdo the brightness in peak scenes and messes with the overall image). The second issue is the wake from sleep bug, it’s so genuinely annoying that I have to power cycle my machine from time to time to get the monitor working. I would do hdmi 2.1 but my GTX 1080 doesn’t support it so I would be severely limiting myself in Hz on the monitor. Basically what do you think would be the best approach here? Keep the G8 for the minor (but still noticeable visual Improvements or just keep the DWF and wait for the next gen G8 OLED from Samsung? TLDR: Have both the G8 and the DWF after the recent firmware update. Not sure which to keep, both have tradeoffs

A review done with such passion. love it.

The sound is just "ok." It'll get the job done for day to day stuff, but I'd definitely recommend using good speakers & not the built in sound. That said, most decent gaming monitors don't have any sound, so I guess that's something at least. Right now, I'd lean g8 if you're getting it for gaming, g9 for productivity. A lot of games don't take advantage of the ultrawide 32:9 really well. However, that will probably improve over time. The g9 offers a ton of space for work & can replace a 2 monitor setup, easily.

Thanks for watching. Now a couple months in, I couldn't be happier with the g8. I doubt I do a video on specific settings. I'm mildly red/green colorblind, so mine would look a little off & oversaturated to most people. For HDR, download the Hdr calibration app for windows. It will let you tweak everything to your specific tastes. Then, leave hdr turned OFF in windows & only turn it back on when you're about to play a game or watch something. Windows does really poorly trying to regulate brightness. Yes, the DP bug is an issue still & I recommend using the micro HDMI 2.1. Hdmi 2.1 actually has higher bandwidth than DP 1.4, so no worries about frames. I found a different micro hdmi to hdmi adapter recently that I really like. I'll link it at the bottom. As for brand, any decent hdmi 2.1 will do. Silkland just sent me cables to test & review. They seem solid so far, good build quality. I plan to cut them open next to look at the quality inside compared to other brands. Cableconn is another inexpensive option. If you're in the US, the Best Buy Essentials brand is actually solid for $20. It's a complete waste of money to drop $50+, on a high end cable. Just stay away from anything too cheap from someone you never heard of on Amazon. Enjoy the 4090. Mine barely breaks a sweat no matter what I throw at it.

As far as I can tell, the DP sleep bug is still there. It's deeper than just Samsung firmware. It's tied to windows 10/11 sleep issues as well. Honestly, it's easier to find good quality micro HDMI 2.1 cables & adapters anyway. Plus, they support higher data rates than the DP version used. At 34" 1440p it's 110PPI. That's the same pixel density as a 40" 4k monitor. You have to be very close to tell. At 2-3ft, away, it's imperceptible. I've really enjoyed it. Decided to keep it as my main display after review.

The oled G8 is awesome. I personally love it, but I'm not sure it would be the best fit for you. The PPI would step up to 110, so that'd definitely be an increase, but you will struggle to take advantage of the 175hz @1440 with a Mobile 3060 GPU. Also, while the Xbox & ps5 do look amazing on it, they display natively at 16:9, which means you're essentially just using a standard 27" 16:9. You may see a much better value looking at a solid 1440p 27" widescreen vs this. Your laptop will be able to drive that a little better & there wouldn't be any difference for your xbox. I don't want to talk you out of it, but I'd hate to see you drop 1000 euro and not get your money's worth, if that makes sense.

When I go to the settings, the "Fit to Screen" option is LOCKED to ON. How do I turn this off? Does this still happen with HDMI? I need to try and get this turned OFF.

It's a windows setting. Before you play a game in 16x9, go to your display settings in windows and switch the resolution to 2560 by 1440. If not, windows will automatically stretch the display. There are a few games that can auto detect your aspect ration and let you change it in game, but ultra wide support is still hit or miss for a lot. I'm not sure if there is a way to set it to auto detect this in the Samsung settings. If there is, I haven't found it, but switching in display settings before playing only takes a second and will fix your problem.

Good news / bad news. Good news is you don't have an issue or need to change cables. Bad news is there isn't really a "fix" because it isn't really a problem. It comes from brightness regulation across large static images like the white background of a browser or email. Windows struggles bad with this in Hdr mode. The simplest way around it, and it's what most people do, is to just leave HDR off in windows until you need it to run a game or movie. It's quick to turn it on before you launch a game. Until windows gets better at handling hdr brightness regulation, it's going to be there, and unfortunately, the BETTER the display the more noticeable. Funny, A crappy hdr monitor with only edge lit dimming isn't nearly as noticeable.

Sure. First make sure you're using a DP 1.4 cable (the included one works fine). Next double check the refresh rate in the monitor's settings and make sure it is set to 175hz or VRR turned on. I recommend using Game Mode as well. Finally make sure in windows display settings you have 175hz selected and not 60. If it isn't giving you the option, double check your GPU settings (nvidia control panel for nvidia cards).

Things to consider though, 1) You need to use the HDMI 2.1 as there's a sleep mode bug with the displayport and 2) Alienware does have a 3yr burn in guarantee.

Better is subjective. They each have advantages. The OLED has much better color accuracy, blacks, and HDR at 21:9. The neo had better brightness, ppi & refresh at 16:9. Personally, I lean towards the color & hdr capability. The difference between 175hz & 240hz is negligible, and 110ppi is more than enough at average monitor distance. Plus, I use a 4090 / 7950x & for most modern games, it's still hard to push passed 175fps with everything maxed. I also prefer the ultrawide aspect ratio. In a perfect world, there'd be a 4k 38" ultrawide, that way I could still get the height of a 32" 16:9 too, but we're still waiting on one to drop.

I'd go with a standard 16x9 4k oled TV over ultrawide for 100% console. If you're using it for both console & PC, but more PC, then for sure, it's amazing. Haven't tried the Neo G8, so can't comment. I have gamed on the neo g7 and it was awesome, but Nothing beats Oled, though. At least for me.

And important note, I have a mild red/green color blindness, so I also have the saturation turned up slightly more than the average person would, but to me it's perfect. Also, in Nvidia panel (if you have Nvidia gpu) I manually set the refresh, & 10 bit color.

Unfortunately, I don't have a ps5 to test with. I do have an Xbox series x that I used it with and loved it. My main TV is am LG c2 77. Even at 1440p, I honestly think this looks better. Probably a ppi thing.

Is this 4k?

No. It's 1440p. At 110ppi, it has about the same pixel density as a 42" 4k screen.

If only there was no burn in risk.

one real annoying thing is that pop up games menu that you cannot turn off ? have looked on google to no avail..............

Are you talking about the little pop up from the bottom when it wakes up? If so, you can't get it to stop, or at least, like you, I haven't figured it out.

Yea. Classic over engineering. No need for all the smart TV features on a monitor.

monitors should remain as monitors, I don’t understand why they add tv features

but pixel density is crab.. a monitor of this size needs way higher res than 4k in my op.

It's 110PPI. That's the same as a 27" 1440p & more than a 43" 4k.

The only reason i didnt buy this is because the mini ports also it not waking up from sleep. so i bought the Alienware!

That's fair. The mini ports were a terrible decision & finding good cables is a nightmare.

The reviews for this monitor on the Samsung website are awful. I can see that it doesn't work well if you use an AMD card, my next build is a 7900XTX. This looks great on paper and for the aesthetic but I might have to pass!

Sorry I'm just getting to your comment. Make sure to check the dates in reviews. The original firmware was TERRIBLE, but it's been updated & much improved. It still has its hiccups here & there, but overall I've been happy. That said, it isn't perfect, by far, & ultimately, you gotta go with whatever will make you the happiest. Too much money to settle for anything less than exactly what you want.

Warranty and firmware wise absolutely. But despite being the same panel, the Samsung looks more appealing.
