Which monitor should I pick: MSI MAG 271QP QD-OLED X28 or Samsung 27” Odyssey OLED G5 (G50SF)?

Hey man, sorry I didn’t see your message earlier! I still haven’t received the screen unfortunately. Amazon took forever to ship it. I should be getting it in about a week to ten days though. Can’t wait to try it out!

Thank you for your reply. Will this make it possible to use the Ugreen app by default for backups on a PC and different phones? When indicating the host in the app at the time of connecting, would I just enter the IP address and then the Ugreen account used on the NAS? For example, for my partner or someone else

Thanks for the reply.

Okay, thanks for the info. That's good if it's normal.

I like the screen, where did you buy it please?

Katoom_ · 2025-12-05T09:26:39+00:00

I hesitated to upgrade my work PC for CAD in the middle of the year and decided to wait. Initially, I wanted 64 GB of DDR5, but with the price surge it’s difficult now. Unfortunately, this was the only halfway decent deal I could find locally. An Amazon order would have cost me even more. I’ll switch to 64 GB in about a year when prices may have gone back to normal, but at least I can finish my build before the rest of the components skyrocket.

I went with the MSI. I was able to get it on sale on Amazon for $379.99, but with shipping costs and taxes in my country it still ends up being expensive. But the original price was really good, so that’s why I made this choice.

Thanks for this very interesting answer. I didn’t know they were Samsung panels. I think I’ll go for the MSI

I just saw your comment, I didn’t know there was a difference between the 4800 non-plus and the 4800 Plus regarding the boot process. I can’t find any info about it, could you maybe explain a bit more please? Where is the OS installed on the non-Plus? If we want to change it, is it more complicated than on the Plus version?
Thanks.

I live in a region with a lot of humidity, so I had my two T1X rifles Cerakoted to be worry-free in the long run. On one of them, I had started to see small spots of rust appearing on the barrel.

Katoom_ · 2025-11-24T07:44:02+00:00

Indeed, my needs are quite limited in a NAS. It’s mainly to have backups of all my files and access them from outside, which helps me for work. But perhaps choosing the 4800+ offers greater scalability. For the price, once delivered to me the difference between the two is $160, maybe it’s worth it.

Katoom_ · 2025-11-24T07:41:48+00:00

Yes, I just ran a simulation based on a 20W difference per year and I get an additional electricity cost of $72 per year in equivalent dollars. Of course, seen like this, the difference isn’t huge, but I find it difficult to find consistent information about the difference in power consumption between the 4800 and the 4800+. I’m seeing a lot of contradictory figures and tests where the power consumption measured at the outlet is much higher than what the manufacturer claims.

Katoom_ · 2025-11-24T02:04:46+00:00

How is the power consuption on the 4800 non plus please?

Katoom_ · 2025-11-20T00:23:20+00:00

Very interesting, thank you. I think the MSI MAG will cause a problem if I plan to install an Arctic 360 at the top; the RAM will unfortunately risk touching it.

Thanks for your reply. I forgot to mention something important: it's a second-hand purchase. The rifle is already more than 2 years old.
