Aorus 4K Gaming Monitor

I love this Monitor. It is a 4k monitor that provides bright color and great contrast. This monitor is good for gaming and a great general-use monitor.

This replaces my Ryzen 7 1800X in a Gigabyte Aorus X470 Gaming with an RTX 2070 Super. Huge improvement in general responsiveness (my 1800X frequently lagged briefly here and there), and big increases in performance using Cinebench R23 (1800X: Single Core 1018 Multi 9309 5800X: Single 1694 Multi 15299) and with games (most either gained +20fps, much higher qualty settings, or both). I haven't tweaked it, just running it under the same water-cooling rig I used for the 1800X. Great upgrade!

Just purchased a Gigabyte Aorus gaming laptop and easily installed this SSD inside. Read/Write speeds are great, the value of this SSD is why I purchased and will purchase again if necessary!

Good color accuracy out of the box and no problems using it for gaming at 4K. Not a professional monitor, but excellent for general purpose work and some photo editing.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first ever gaming monitor I’ve ever owned or bought. I bought this monitor for my PlayStation 5!! And I have No regrets well worth the price I use to game on my Samsung 4K tv which has a refresh rate of 120hz but it only had the HDMI 2.0 input at first I thought it was going to be weird going from a 55” Tv to a 27” monitor but right off that bat it just doesn’t compare gaming in a 27 inches is perfect for gaming I was doing it all wrong! And the 4K quality looks better on my LG monitor than it did on my Samsung TV and now I can take Advantage of the 120FPS features on certain games for my PS5 overall I’m very happy with my new monitor and would for sure recommend it to my friends or anyone to buy it if they can.

I've switched to this after 1.5 years with AW3423DW, because Apex and Rocket League have been the majority of my gaming hours. The productivity loss wasn't that bad, and the stand shape leaves room for another monitor if needed. The visuals seem on par with the Dell, but the smoothness is a noticeable upgrade. It is especially clear in Rocket League with its rough transitions when playing the ball cam (like you normally should). 540 Hz monitors with strobing have even better motion clarity but I won't put up with ghosting nor the hit to image quality. The timing around Apex's vulnerability deprived me of the most relevant comparison, but even a similar frame rate looks better in The Division 2. Unlike Rocket League, this must come down to a massive improvement in total latency from superior processing time. AW34D3W was unusually bad for OLEDs, while this MSI tops the charts. The monitor supports 4K input for downsampling the image from modern consoles and media players. The flipside is that PC games detected the monitor as 4K when using exclusive fullscreen, but the borderless option is taking over anyway (DX12 doesn't even have exclusive fullscreen). The connectivity is an upgrade as well: 2 genuine HDMI 2.1 and a 90W PD USB-C are amazing to have. There are also the usual 2 USB-A ports and a backup DP 1.4, too. Software-wise, this is completely fine out of the box unlike certain Samsungs and Dells were. A DSC toggle and separate color profiles for SDR & HDR should come with a future firmware, and the only other quirk is monitor turning off rather than going back to standby after a pixel refresh on idle. For pure gaming performance, this is the best OLED at the joint lowest price for this panel. I haven't been able to identify a caveat here. It is a great time to be an OLED aficionado.

Love this monitor! Great gameplay for 4k and videos look amazing! I use this for gaming and my video editing! Colors out of this are amazing! Love the auto adjusting and dimming for my gaming experience. Currently have it mounted on a desk arm and was easy to install

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my monitor for gaming and streaming movies. The quality of the 4k is amazing. Screen is crystal clear and performance is to my standards. I would recommend this product to anyone.

I've been using a 4k screen for a couple of years, but it was a Samsung TV as I wanted a larger screen and nothing in the monitor space yet existed. It was a good experience, I didn't have any issues - regardless of what people say about using TVs as monitors. However, once I noticed that OLED monitors were coming around, I considered going back. I wasn't crazy about dealing with burn-in and the odd ways manufactures try to prevent it. Instead, I wanted to see what Samsung was up to in the gaming monitor space. I came across this and was immediately drawn in because of the high fresh rate and it being 4k. I didn't consider the G8 because I didn't think the even higher refresh rate warranted the extra cost. Once I got the G7 connected, it was like playing games for the first time. Cyberpunk looked incredibly better than my 4k TV, colors popped and I could see details that I couldn't previously. The curvature is a bit odd at first, especially in Windows, but for gaming, I really like it. The high refresh rate was a new experience as well - I hadn't had anything higher than 60Hz, so again it was a new experience. This makes a big different not only in gaming, but using Windows - everything is so smooth. The height adjustment was another helpful feature as I needed it to be in a specific place. Without it, I would have had to use a box or something else unsightly. I'm not an RGB person, but found that I liked messing with the colors and do leave a solid color on most of the time. My only complaint, is the buttons to control the settings. I have some business monitors for work that are also Samsung and they use the same buttons. It's not my favorite and it feels a bit cheap. For an $1100 monitor, I'd expect a bit more, but it's not something I use often. I feel the monitor is on the expensive side, but it is worth it if you have the machine to push high end graphics to it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this monitor for gaming. The 4K picture is stunning and the colors are very rich and vibrant. I run triple A titles on ultra settings with a 4090 Nvidia GPU and this monitor is perfect for it. The curve is another great feature of the neoG8. It looks great and has completely alleviated the eye strain I was getting playing on my television. Honestly I can’t say enough good things about it. I’m glad I got it and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for high fps and a great picture.
