Monitor Black Screen While Gaming

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While I don't do any gaming on this screen but use it daily for work, as far as productivity is concerned, this thing is a monster! I replaced a 34" mated to a 27" and this 49er has been an amazing addition! The real estate is just mind boggling. I am running 3 apps on screen at times, while other programs (Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.) I run at 2/3 of the screen. Colors are great as well. I am very pleased with this screen for sure! Highly recommend.

The monitor itself is super impressive. One can choose between the HDMI and the Display port, and choose for it to either stand on the desk or be mounted onto a wall. At first, I have opted for the former, but unfortunately, it ended up claiming almost half of my desk. It might work better with a corner one however. As for mounting it, this was quite a feat! But it worked great. Once the monitor gets to work, it is truly a sight to behold. I have tried connecting it to both my laptop and my computer. While the latter had of course better results as far as for example vivacity of colours goes, it didn’t do too shabby even when connected to a laptop (although, naturally, one can see and feel the difference between the employed graphics cards). Work 12/10: I work in translation, so I often need to have several reference documents as well as dictionaries pulled up. In this regard, this monitor is unbeatable as it manages that and more, with no fuss or problems, mainly thanks to the "Samsung Easy Setting Box" which enables custom screen splitting, so that you can have different windows in predefined areas. While this sounds good as a concept, it does not work that well in practise as it bugs a bit. Free time: Gaming - let’s be honest, this monitor is in a category of its own. The overall picture quality is incredible, as is the depth of colours. 100-120 FPS is no problem, which translates into a truly immersive gaming experience. As far as watching movies and videos goes, this is something that needs getting used to, as there are bound to be some chunky black bars. However, this small drawback hardly outweighs all the positives. To wrap up, it does excellent what it was made to do – gaming – but is nowhere near shabby when it comes to arranging your work either. The single pane really spoils you, as opposed to working across two monitors, and I am not sure I would ever be able to go back!

Fast shipping .. thanks B&H Amazing monitor for the price .. beautiful colors screen for gaming ,, very good monitor performance for gaming .. best hdr gaming monitor I have see .. Great color balance in game

This monitor is very nicely built and the display is impressive. While the screen is not quite as bright as my 27 5K iMac, the overall display quality is very good and colors are accurate. BenQ's power supply is internal, another plus. The BenQ display has no problems waking from my Apple Studio's computer sleep mode, my HP monitor required being powered off and back on each time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First and foremost the monitor showed up in perfect condition packaging was great which I was concerned about with a screen this big. While this size is amazing for productivity at 32in The curve is really nice as it helps block out surrounding distractions even if it’s just a little. The screen is of good quality and the stand is low profile so it fits on the desktop nicely without taking too much space. Putting it together was a breeze no tools needed. That is not to say there is no downside as the panel is only 1080p (but is 165hz) if resolution matters for you this may not be the best. For productivity this monitor is really good lots of screen space. You can have two programs open at the same time no problem. While this one is being used for a Nintendo Switch it is very important to note that connections are limited on this monitor to HDMI or DisplayPort only. If you want to plug in something like a MacBook or a laptop with only USB C ports you will need an adaptor.

It's not designed for the purpose, but I use this on video gigs as a client monitor or for checking focus. While it completely lacks video-centric features like LUTs, meters, or freeze, it is easy to set up on a stand with the 1/4 screw mount and is simple to power off a USB-C battery pack (I use a smallrig VB50 or VB99 to power this and several other things at once, will run for over a day). Comparable monitors that are designed for video cost thousands of dollars with thickness measured in inches, which I'm not about to spend or haul to a gig since clients probably couldn't tell the difference anyway. This screen is super thin and lightweight, so it costs almost nothing capacity-wise to bring (slips into a typical laptop pocket in a backpack). I'm sure if you're a travelling businessperson or even video editor/creative this would be a perfect addition to your laptop. The colors are particularly good, comparable to the OLED I edit on, which is what I wanted. A personal factory calibration slip is included, which actually noticeably exceeded the spec'd delta-E for my screen. Obviously with OLED do not expect it to work well in sunlight or bright environments as it is relatively dim, this is for indoor or dimly-lit environments only. I was particularly impressed with the folding flap/stand, which is attached not with adhesives, but simple magnets, so it is easy to remove completely or add it on for protection. I guess my only complaints would be the use of mini-HDMI instead of full HDMI (understandable, but mildly annoying- make sure you buy the right cable if you need to use HDMI in), and the 1080p resolution. While 1080p is totally fine for a 13 screen, I'd love to see a 4K version as that would make an ideal monitor for checking focus. That would put pixel density on-par with 7 1080p screens.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use the monitor for mostly gaming purposes but I do use it to stream videos and movies. I love how good the resolution is on it. Has a beautiful colorful picture and the black are black. For theoney I would recommend it to anyone.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently upgraded to the Samsung 32” Odyssey OLED G8 Gaming Monitor, and the difference is nothing short of spectacular. The color quality is awesome, thanks to the OLED technology. Unlike normal LED screens that go to a dark gray when displaying black, this monitor achieves true black by turning the pixels all the way off. This contrast creates a more vivid and immersive viewing experience. The HDR support further enhances the color, making games and videos look even more lifelike. The monitor itself is massive compared to my old one, which means I can only run one monitor due to the size of my desk. But honestly, with a screen this impressive, I don't feel like I need a second monitor. One of the standout features is the 240Hz display. This high refresh rate lets my new beefy computer perform at its best, allowing for up to 240 frames per second. My old monitor could only handle 144Hz, so the jump to 240Hz has made gaming incredibly smooth. The difference in gameplay is noticeable, especially in high-impact games where graphics are a key selling point. The monitor also comes with its own USB output, which is super handy for plugging in a charger directly. Another great feature is the onboard media center, allowing me to install apps like Netflix and stream shows with the same stunning color quality and fidelity. Overall, gaming on the Samsung 32” Odyssey OLED G8 is a dream. The combination of true black, HDR support, and 240Hz refresh rate makes every game look better and run smoother than ever before. If you're looking for a top-tier gaming monitor, this one is definitely worth considering.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this monitor because I needed something to take up less desktop space and to have good specs for gaming. Having 3 inputs allows me to change up the type of gaming or productivity I want to do albeit computer or gaming console. Going through some performance tests I found that the detail and sharpness are excellent. There are no breaks or banding in the color gradients and no dead pixels going through your primary colors (black, white, red, green, and blue). Brightness in the colors are uniform across the screen with no shadowing on the edges that I have found. When displaying similar colors you can still differentiate between the objects they represent. Back to gradients again, the transition is very smooth and does not show blocks or bars within the colors. Text is effortless to read with white on black or black on white without having to strain my eyes. The viewing angle is very good when looking from the sides and does not distort any imagery being shown. Last but not least the response time, when I ran it through some of the games I play I did notice a big difference with how jittery my old monitor was compared to the Armada. The Armada was very smooth while moving around in-game, zooming in on menus, and snapping to different points of texture. Along with that gaming aspect you can opt to turn on a crosshair to reference a specific point in your game while being able to change the color and change the position of where to put the crosshair which I found to come in handy for those moments needing to hip fire. The monitor arm was very easy to mount on my desk using the clamp style(does come with pieces to mount into your desk for a more permanent solution) and adapters to allow a higher mounting position. Easy to lift and lower, rotate portrait or landscape, and cable guides to hold out of the way.

MSI MPG 321URX QD-OLED is the best computer monitor I have owned. The screen 32 inch screen size is perfect for my desktop setup. The build qualtiy of the mointor is very good. The picture quality is amazing due to the QD-OLED pannel. Color is extremely accurate and the black is true black! I have played a few games on it already and they look a lot better than my old LCD monitor! I like the OLED Care feature built in the mointor to reduce the risk of the pixel burn-in. The usb c port on the monitor with 90W PD is extremely useful for connecting my working laptop by using just one cable. Overall I am very satisfied with this monitor. PROS: - Accurate color. - Build in KVM switch. - 90W PD USB C. - LOW input lag. - OLED Care works for reducing burn-in risk. - Comes with a screen protector on the montior. CONS: - No displayport cable comes with the monitor.
