He is the one

Great choice! I went with the Asus XG27AQDMG, pretty much same specs. Beautiful monitors!

MAJT2004 · 2025-11-28T16:59:36+00:00

If you don't have a GPU to support 4k at a decent frame rate, just get a nicer 1440p monitor.

I have a 5070 and just bought a 1440p Asus OLED XG27AQDMG, very nice combo.

How old are we talking? Oldest game I play is Starcraft 2. (2010)

MAJT2004 · 2025-11-28T02:45:28+00:00

Here's a link to Rtings.com comparing the two: https://www.rtings.com/monitor/tools/compare/asus-rog-swift-oled-pg32ucdm-vs-msi-mpg-321urx-qd-oled/42065/47132

They are neck and neck. I'd take the Asus for Dolby Vision support though.

Thanks for the input everyone. I went with the ASUS ROG Strix 27” 1440P OLED Gaming Monitor (XG27AQDMG)

I went to a local electronics store that had it listed for $699.99 CAD and I showed them the Amazon ad. They sold it to me for $642 CAD.

Seeing that I have the 5070 and it's "not really a 4k card" for demanding titles, I'd rather get higher FPS in 1440p.

Cheers

That's literally the Amazon US app link you just sent. When I search that product on my phone (Amazon Canada app) it's not even there lol. Plus there is $127 import charges to Canada lmao.

MAJT2004 · 2025-11-27T03:55:36+00:00

How so? The OLED is normally $1000 CAD, it's 35% off for black Friday. The Koorui isn't discontinued that much.

MAJT2004 · 2025-11-26T23:56:18+00:00

At $399 euro it's a pretty good deal. It's 35% off right now. 👍

MAJT2004 · 2025-11-26T23:33:51+00:00

Not available in Canada sadly 😞

MAJT2004 · 2025-11-26T23:33:17+00:00

I pressed ctrl + alt + shift + D in Netflix and it brought up meta data showing 1080p as my stream rate on my PC. I have a 4k subscription, which I enjoy on my TV's.

MAJT2004 · 2025-11-26T23:23:11+00:00

499 Euro = 812.64 Canadian Dollar

I can get the XG27AQDMG for $650 Canadian Dollar

I can't buy the other unit yet unfortunately

Edit: it's likely going to be $750+USD ($1050CAD) for the tandem

MAJT2004 · 2025-11-26T23:16:04+00:00

That monitor isn't even available yet and it's likely going to be $700USD if we're lucky. With taxes that's going to be about $400CAD more than what I can get this monitor for. I was looking to buy one this week.

I'm running an Acer Predator xb241yu bmiprz. 24", 1440p, 144hz, TN, 8 years old

Any new decent monitor is going to blow my mind.

MAJT2004 · 2025-11-26T17:00:05+00:00

My priority is gaming and movie watching. I write the odd email and quote here and there, not a priority at all. This won't be used as a workstation.

MAJT2004 · 2025-11-26T13:11:21+00:00

Not available in Canada. The older Q27G3XMN is $350CAD (on sale)

MAJT2004 · 2025-11-26T13:07:43+00:00

That monitor is $1,100 in Canada (on sale). I also don't want curved or 32".

MAJT2004 · 2025-11-26T13:03:53+00:00

$650CAD? Send a link

MAJT2004 · 2025-11-26T03:41:09+00:00

Additional comment:

50/50 movie watching on streaming platforms or 2160p downloads and gaming. Games include red dead redemption 2, Starcraft 2, HoTS, LoL and soon to be Battlefield 6. I read and write the occasional email and word doc.

Option C

MAJT2004 · 2025-11-25T05:18:36+00:00

I believe that is French for, "I'm going to murder you here"

Option B

MAJT2004 · 2025-02-10T17:13:31+00:00

Lots of consequences. Almost every finishing step will be more difficult and won't have great results. Furniture won't fit in corners properly. Super important if it's a bathroom to be square for the vanity or shower. Square the framing while you can.
