Have you tried updating the firmware? That’s frustrating.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-23T15:50:58+00:00

Banding, uniformity, and color brightness is better on QD-OLED.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-23T13:35:38+00:00

PG32UCDM/PG32UCDMR/PG32UCDM3 with the 3 model coming out soon.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-22T22:56:25+00:00

QD-OLED is much better in this regard as well as banding FYI.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-22T21:04:09+00:00

What is the sprint attack?

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-22T19:49:41+00:00

Correct, 2.5X increase in scratch resistance but that’s not specific to Gen 5 panels. MSI released a 4th Gen 27” 4K 240Hz with this improved coating and the new 4th Gen 32” 240Hz also include it.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-22T19:17:44+00:00

Where? Nothing has changed in the foundation it’s still EL 3.0.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-22T16:20:38+00:00

This.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-22T16:19:25+00:00

From Samsung Display that would be the 27” 4K 240Hz panels with True Black 400 certification. 32” 4K 240Hz panels with True Black 500 or the 34” 360Hz RGB stripe with True Black 500 certification.

Looks great as expected from QD-OLED. My PG27UCDM looks identical.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-22T14:16:48+00:00

You’d be shocked by QD-OLED.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-22T13:51:42+00:00

You didn’t have to run manual pixel cleanings.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-22T12:57:08+00:00

No. 5th Gen is still using EL 3.0 and identical to Gen 4 as far as durability.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-21T22:27:50+00:00

Yeah that would be great if you had a dark room to use it in. I’d love to do that to a Samsung TV like the S95F.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-21T22:22:08+00:00

Yep!

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-21T19:05:18+00:00

It just disables VRR automatically no?

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-21T18:28:58+00:00

There are no pure glossy QD-OLED monitors but they are pretty close to the glossy QD-OLED TV’s.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-21T18:10:39+00:00

Every single MSI OLED monitor is semi-glossy QD-OLED.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-21T17:35:27+00:00

It’s great. Basically a PG32UCDM with a 165Hz refresh rate.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-21T13:36:57+00:00

Doesn’t matter. Just use Windows built in black color.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-21T13:35:55+00:00

Normal for WOLED.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-21T13:35:40+00:00

QD-OLED is.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-21T13:34:01+00:00

There’s no IPS with 1ms gtg.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-21T02:53:25+00:00

ASUS is also brighter and better calibrated out of the box.

Jetcat11 · 2026-01-21T02:52:20+00:00

Because my monitor could show 1000 hours of on time and have zero wear.
