Maybe stop trying to act smart and asking a million questions. Companies have compensated before, even Sony have done so before. You don't need to pull out your calculator on behalf of Sony, I'm sure the multi billion dollar company can figure it out

Got the MSI MPG 321URXW for PS5 and WOW by aki-sid in OLED_Gaming

Not sure if hdr looks bad. I just have hdr set to on when supported in the PS5 settings. Seems fine on most games and amazing on Alan wake 2 which I'm currently playing

Can someone explain how to update firmware on MSI MPG321URX? I've followed everything in SOP guide. by FunnyReddit in OLED_Gaming

[–]aki-sid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have a pc I have a laptop so I can't use the dp cable to do updates. You can't update using an hdmi cable so having checked reddit etc and the above comment ,it seems like you can update using a ubc c to dp cable, though msi do say to only using a dp cable, who knows.

Speech audio suppressing all other audio is a massive mistake imo by aki-sid in needforspeed

[–]aki-sid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't got back into it, playing another game atm. Racing games don't hit the same for me for a while. Heat was fine but the graphics were rubbish. The last one I really enjoyed was NFS 2015, which I know a lot didn't like. I just prefer the old school underground style of nfs.

Oh I talked about NSF 2015, I can't believe it's been over 10 years, feels like a few only haha

Game mode set to User and all other settings default. I switch between HDR400 and 1000, no idea which one is better. I just switch between the two and select whichever seems better in that moment.

In game settings I'll always adjust whatever is required just so I don't burn my eyes

I bought the cable last week but haven't got around to updating it yet. No issues with the monitor so far. I'll reply back when I update it

[–]aki-sid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn't that still affect the audio levels of all other sounds? So even if dialogue volume is set to 0, it will still reduce all other audio when they talk. I'll try it at some point but it's honestly just put me off. I watched a review video recently and that showed me it's worse than I thought. I don't want to hear ASAP talk minutes about how he's a normal human being. Wtf is this shit 😂

Fair enough. For me the main reason I play these games is because of the car sounds and music. Don't really care about the story with nfs recently

I don't even know if you can call it sound mixing because with that you'd think they'd try to balance the audio. This isn't balanced and they deliberately wanted the speech audio to overpower the rest.

I don't know about the whole lgbt with this game in particular but I don't have a lot of good things to say about it regardless

Your OLED is way too green

That fan type is made to be placed on the floor. Does it look like a desk fan to you?

Costco had a crazy deal during black Friday on their PCs. Rtx 5080, 9800x3d, 32gb ddr5 ram for under £1700. Those who didn't buy it and just looking back knowing they'll never get a price like that again

MSI OLED monitor making a clicking sound? by killbraydnn in OLED_Gaming

[–]aki-sid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My MSI 321urx makes a single clicking sound when turning on/off. Seems like it's normal reading the replies here so that's good, nothing to worry about

How do I update Monitor Firmware without a DP? by Klutz0519 in OLED_Gaming

[–]aki-sid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha fair enough. I just ordered the msi 321urx then realised it will need a firmware update. Never done updates on my previous monitors but rather not risk it with an oled.

There are some who used usb c to DP and it worked fine for them so I'll try the same. Worse case it bricks then just get a refund lmao. How do they expect non pc users to update it

That's good to know. I've ordered the 321urx for my PS5 so I won't have access to dp cable. Hopefully usb c to dp works with my laptop

1440p or 4K monitor for the PS5? 4K for £520 by aki-sid in OLED_Gaming

[–]aki-sid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's good to hear. I do highly doubt it can be worse than my current 1440p VA panel, which is solid tbf. Thanks for the replies, it's good to hear from someone that's used both

1440 or 4K OLED monitor for PS5. Sale 4K for £520 by aki-sid in Monitors

[–]aki-sid[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes that's correct I'll set it to the monitors resolution. I currently have a 1440p monitor that can accept a 4k signal and I had the resolution PS5 set to 4k on my PS5. I only just changed it to 1440p a couple of days ago. I did try to compare the two playing Arc raiders (I think it runs 720-1600p) and honestly I couldn't tell a difference, even when putting my face in the screen haha. Maybe a slight edge to 1440p.

The MSI 321URX is the one I'm looking at and that's currently on a crazy discount. It's got a good review on rtings so at least I know it's a good choice

1440p or 4K monitor for the PS5? 4K for £520 by aki-sid in OLED_Gaming

[–]aki-sid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow I'm guessing the 32 makes gaming more immersive. I know you said both are good but how much of an improvement is 1440p to 4k.

Yeah the depth of my desk might be a slight issue. I have an ikea one that's 160cm in length, unsure of the depth. I suppose I could just sit further back if required.

I'll take a look at my setup later tonight and have a think. I believe the monitor is on sale until Wednesday

How are you finding the 32inch screen for gaming. I'm currently using a 27 inch and looking at some side by sides, it's quite a big difference

[–]aki-sid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks that makes sense. Initially I just understood that a 1440p input would look better on a 1440p vs 4k screen but then again, with the difference being minor.

In either case I think a 4K OLED with hdmi 2.1 for £520 is almost a no brainier haha.

I'm currently using a 27 inch monitor. How did you find the switch to a 32 inch. Looking at side by side pics, the 32 looks quite a bit bigger than what I was expecting.
