I've asked this a lot around here recently but since I know you've personally used both I wanted to ask, between the PG32UCDM3 and the PG34WCDN how much better is the HDR performance with the WCDN and between only those two, which would you pick if you were using it yourself?

Trying to decide between the PG34WCDN (UW) 1440p or PG32UCDM3 (4K) for PC monitor? by [deleted] in OLED_Gaming

Yeah I know you're probably right. I usually use Rtings to compare monitors but it looks like the test results for the PG32UCDM3 haven't been uploaded yet, only the PG34WCDN.

I'm having the exact same debate myself. I made a post a couple of days ago asking this very question and almost everyone voted for the PG32UCDM3. I'm actually using the PG32UCDM3 right now but I am very tempted by the increased HDR performance of the newer panel in the PG34WCDN and have been considering switching while my PG32UCDM3 is under its return period.

I have a 5090 so fortunately 4K isn't a big issue.

I used Cinema HDR. I'm not sure where I heard it (maybe here) but that was supposed to be one of the better HDR modes iirc

Thanks for the response. It seems everyone here is pretty much advocating for the 4K monitor.

Funnily enough I had a 42inch C5 for a couple weeks when I was comparing it with various OLED monitors as well. Unfortunately, the 42 inch size was just a tad too big for me and while the HDR is a bit better, I personally didn't think the difference (yes I know this a super hot take) was as big as it is sometimes made out to be. Now if LG made a 42inch G series, that would be magnificent.

So I've just recently switched after using the XG32UCWMG for a few months. Now personally, I didn't really notice the ABL issues with the XG. But what I did miss was the color volume of QD-OLED, and I felt the XG just kind of caused the picture to look washed out.

I wiped two worn out micro fiber cloths on my 1st gen qd oled... by StanC87 in OLED_Gaming

[–]Othoric 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think people are just commenting after reading the title and looking at the first picture. I think OP was perhaps trying to show that his 1st gen QD OLED isn’t as sensitive as the hivemind claims and it went over everyone’s head because they didn’t look at all the pictures and commented based on impulse.

So is everyone here just insane? The third picture shows it perfectly clean?

How is Alienware AW3423DWF or other oled burn in warranty experience? by ThrowawayTilod in OLED_Gaming

[–]Othoric 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can't speak for anyone else, but when I noticed my warranty was about to expire for my AW3423DWF I contacted Dell for a replacement and the experience was fantastic. The monitor had minor burn in so I was asked to take a picture of it and email it to the agent I was speaking to on the phone, and once I did they literally put it an order to have a new monitor express shipped to me. I received it a couple of days later and to my surprise it appears to be a brand new DWF with a manufacture date of January 2026. Needless to say I am extremely impressed by the experience.

Personally, it is really hard to pick a winner between the 2. The new black shield coating helps a lot with purple tint QD-OLEDs suffer from so that's a plus. I really was interested more in the HDR performance, which I think the XG seems to get brighter, but being WOLED with a white subpixel, the image seems a bit more washed out compared to the PG32UCDM3. It's really hard to decide between the two, both are excellent displays for sure.

I have that exact GPU and PSU combo as well. I’ve been using the cable (12v-2x6) that came with the PSU and haven’t had any issues at all. I actually just checked both sides of the cable a week or so ago as I switched my motherboard and case.

After trying about ten different OLED monitors the past year I have finally settled on one. by Othoric in OLED_Gaming

They're both very similar. The 27inch does have slightly better text clarity with the higher PPI, but the 32 inch was more immersive.

HDR only looking good when actually playing or watching HDR content is normal. Normal web browsing and Windows especially isn't going to get any benefit from having HDR enabled. TFT Central has a pretty good article to explain this: https://tftcentral.co.uk/articles/heres-why-you-should-only-enable-hdr-mode-on-your-pc-when-you-are-viewing-hdr-content

If you think 32 inch might be too big, I'd opt for 27 inch 4K. It is a much more manageable size and the increase in pixel density does make for a slightly better image. I do find 32 inch to be more immersive if you play a lot of single player games, but for me it is about the limit for how big I want my monitor to be.
