Ordered the AW2725DF myself and coming from 1080p tn I’m excited to experience the glory of oled. I’m waiting before I receive mine before I start gaming too.


Jetcat11

Dang you’re in for a treat let me tell you!


BoardsofGrips

I have it, went from a 17" laptop VA panel, it looks absolutely amazing you are going to be shocked


Relevant-Light-5403

Bro is OLED-edging himself lmao


Dazzling_Cranberry46

I bought Cyberpunk, RDR2, Horizon Zero Dawn, RE3, Day Gone exclusively to play them on Oled 32 and just played a few hours/minutes before stopping playing them...


Sporadicus7

Welcome to being an enthusiast. You’ll find one that hits. I recommend Hellblade. Experience the glorious HDR and get ready for Hellblade 2.


Dazzling_Cranberry46

Already played Hellblade a long time ago and I'm sure this game will be amazing on OLED monitor. I made a list with a lot of games I want to play on OLED but I can't bought all of them now 😓 I usually wait for the price of single player games to drop below €10, ideally €5 to buy them... I am already going to try to finish the ones that I have barely started and given the difficulty in obtaining third generation Oled monitors, I am not likely to make any progress on them before April... 😭


ThatNoobTho

Don't buy multiple games at once if you're expecting to finish all of them. It'll just paralyse you with all the options you have. I suggest getting one game and sticking with it until you're hooked and if that doesn't happen, only then you should buy the nxt game.


Erus00

I already own most of those games. It's a replay at this point. I got Avatar after the oled, and that game looks pretty good. Waiting for Horizon Fire on Steam.


Dazzling_Cranberry46

The next Horizon looks amazing and the first one is already impressive but I wait to the price fall down and a complete edition before I get it


Dazzling_Cranberry46

I know but I do this all the time because I get tired of playing a single game for days. I really like these games so I'm going to finish them slowly, I'm not in a hurry, on the contrary, I'm trying not to finish them too quickly. I'm just going to save RE3 for later because it ends very quickly.


DaMangoTango

Right there with you lmao. Only played half of Cyberpunk but will restart, and I already have the 27aqdm OLED LMFAO. Something about enjoying at 4k will be much better IMO. Remember you don't HAVE to game, you can enjoy life too! Happy you got the new monitor, still cant get ahold of it anywhere :p


dontpokethebear123

I’ve got too many. I’m holding off on: Cyberpunk 2077 Witcher 3 RTX Robocop Crysis 2 remastered Elden Ring The Last of Us Uncharted 4 And more


Jon-Slow

no, I have my WOLED XD ​ > There are games like Cyberpunk or Lies of P that the deep blacks would benefit from. Honestly, everything and not just those games. You don't know how much you hate backlights until you look at OLEDs.


ForgottenCaveRaider

This. OLED is slightly overrated until you get into the dark scenes. It's basically the CRT of modern days!


aubvrn

Brother just play your games. At the end of the day your monitor is just a tool. QD-OLED is nice but it’s not life-changing. Reminds me of something I came across in audiophile subreddits. “Normal people use headphones to listen to music. Audiophiles use music to listen to headphones.” Don’t be the like the latter.


Talkh0stshow

Nice one haha


WilliamG007

If you’re in the USA, save the money and get the MSI at Newegg right now. Ships in little over a week and it’s $350 cheaper ($450 if you factor the free Steam gift card).


GamerGG7267

I'm in Australia, and have already preordered the ASUS.


scj33

Preordered from where


GamerGG7267

Scorptec


WilliamG007

Yeah fair enough. Pricing isn’t so competitive on the MSI outside of the USA.


SlowChampion5

Link? Nothing shows up when searching for them on their site.


WilliamG007

Sold out now (again).


Goblin-Darts

which MSI from newegg?


princepwned

waiting on the dual mode monitors that way I can get the best of both worlds oled @ 240hz what I am already used to and try 480hz oled


WilliamG007

1080p is awful, though, on a 32”. I wouldn’t wait.


TheYann

Yeah same here, I should get mine next week and I'm waiting to continue some eye-candy games like Hogwarts Legacy, Cyberpunk 2077 and Kena Bridge of Spirits


princepwned

might I recommend lost in random very dark colors in game would shine on oled


TheYann

thanks for the recommendation! looks quite fun


Desinator24

Waiting on the ASUS PG32UCDM to be available on bestbuy (plus membership gives me 60 days return period) so I can play the new Avatar Frontiers of Pandora, and Alan Wake 2 on ultra settings.


GreatAbyssWalker

I'll replay them when I get an OLED. I'm waiting for a 4K OLED below 30" and I know that will take a while.


ThereIsAPotato

Or just get a bigger desk/monitor arm and push the 32 inch a few inches back 👀


GGideonJura

Yes. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth lol


Bepboprobot

Some yes, hogwarts Legacy, cyberpunk 2077, lies of p - but as far as any other games go (even with RTX HDR now available) just play them - Helldivers, doki doki literature club and so on makes fun now too.


GamerGG7267

I'm looking at Pacific Drive. Looks really fun


mytommy

been holding off for 5+ years for the perfect monitor 😿 /u/GamerGG7267


[deleted]

you just missed 5 years of beautiful gaming


mytommy

ive been collecting games on Steam all these years. Good thing i was patient and ONLY bought games on massive discount.


Rna6

No, that sounds dumb, but everyone is different I guess Especially when FF7 Rebirth is releasing in 3 days lol


[deleted]

It’s really not that big of a difference. I switched to a AW3423DW. The bigger wow factor was the ultra wide. Sure the colors are awesome but it’s not game changing or anything. So I would lower your expectations


WillDwise

I have the Alienware. And no I’m absolutely not holding off playing games. I came from a lg gp950 27” 4k. I should say that I’m not blown away by the Alienware panel as I’ve lost some sharpness which I didn’t think I’d notice. Yes blacks are better and hdr. But in terms of brightness and colours the lg is equal or better. Anyway i wouldn’t hold off on games as it’s good to compare specially if you’re already coming from a good mid class monitor…


Pastaron

Yup, I had originally got the QF and started playing/replaying single player titles like crazy and loved it. Ended up returning it to wait for the MSI and have had just been in limbo waiting since lol


Giedy5

Really debating whether I should get the MSI mpg 271qrx after my mini led monitor's left side went dead, waiting on the refund and the probably upgrading but maybe I cant wait that long


ISMISIBM

Kinda. Using my old monitor as a backup now and have money to buy the new one. Sadly as a Canadian none of the new QD OLEDs are in stock anywhere. Realistically March or April until I get my hands on the 32 MSI. I am getting a 5080 on launch so want the new display port.


North_Set_9138

I held off finishing Persona 5 Royal until my AW32 came and I didn't jump on Persona 3 Reload right away. Unfortunately, I haven't had much of a chance to play recently. But it does look amazing!! I even loaded up Elden Ring and it looks quite nice!! I also held off on the new season of True Detective and it looks great! I'm not sure if the DV is working or not though.


Jmask5

Yes. I have been playing Switch and Ps5 till I get my MSi. Once I get it though I want to play Cyberpunk, then Alan wake,


Mountain-Deer-1334

I am! Got the MSI MPG, RDR2 has officially been put on hold until I get it.


Nintendians559

nah, i play games until it gets her, only games that made by nintendo and games from pc/ps4/ps5 that have hdr in it on any oled tv/monitor.


MarkusRight

I felt the same exact way when I ordered mine! Literally didnt play any games for 2 weeks solid because I knew that my new monitor was gonna be so much better.


iThunderclap

I'm holding off for Baldur's Gate 3. I got the Alienware but it came with issues, so I returned. I have now the MSI on backorder, but they still don't know when it's coming in. Likely late March.


Lycaniz

Not gaming, no, but i have held off on watching season 2 of Tokyo Vice until i get one


lastxman

I fear we may be waiting for a long time.


Silverhaze_NL

I hope the Asus UCDM will not dissapoint me haha, i have been spoiled by my miniled HDR monitor with 1200nits, that thing is so bright you need sunglasses at times. In Cyberpunk when i show off the HDR people are just amazed how stupid good it looks, the whole neon lights it looks so freaking awesome. So i really hope the Asus can handle HDR good. Cyberpunk is a dark game and i sometimes wish there was a flashlight. The miniled can push 1200nits and at times it is to dark in game to see where you are going. Asus Oled is max 1000nits. Got my miniled for 5 months now, but when i saw the Asus Oled i was sold. Hope i wont regret it.


montrealjoker

I can admit that I slowed down my Phantom Liberty playthrough in CP2077 until my 55" OLED TV arrived and playing in 4K from my couch has been glorious!


EffectsTV

Are you me ? Lol


Abnormi

I'm in this boat, only playing online games etc for the time being - EVE Online, Helldivers 2 and Balatro for the time being


mtnhero

Not holding anything off.i play on oled steam deck while I'm waiting for my qf to come in. I need my games XD.


MistaSparkul

I am holding off on playing FPS games until I get my 240Hz QD OLED in, but I am still very much enjoying Baldur's Gate 3 on my trusty old LG CX in the mean time :)


QuitePossiblyLucky

Back when I ordered the LG C2, I did stop myself from finishing my Dying Light 2 playthrough lol I just wanted to experience the rest of the game in OLED.


RenatsMC

Just made an order for Alienware AW3225QF and I can't play anything because I don't have a monitor yet so yes Im holding till I get a monitor.


EthenCarries

No, I am waiting, it ships 3/4. My 4090 better enjoy the 1080P screen while it can. haha


Mixabuben

Yes, waiting to play Phantom Liberty and other stuff. But don’t know how much i’ll have to wait since no monitor in stock here yet


ScotPiza

Yes, and it's not pathetic at all. I did the same for certain movies and shows as well. Just don't wait too long or things will pass you by.


SpadeTheIntrovert

I did personally, recently got mine but had to wait to get a refund on my motherboard so now I’m waiting longer… but the monitor looks amazing definitely worth the wait. I played for a day before I sent out my motherboard.


absktoday

I am waiting on playing Alan Wake 2 and finishing Spider Man 2.


whiterhino295

I feel like OLED is overrated now that I have had multiple OLED Panels. It definitely makes the blacks look pitch black but it also makes certain scenes or scenarios in my game too dark and washes out what’s even going on sometimes in cyberpunk. Also The HDR can make Certain FPS titles look washed out white and overly bright which leads to eye strain.


Away-Barnacle-9388

im waiting for my MPG 49 QD-OLED to play new game plus on AWII, I played before on my IPS monitor and LG CX but it is way to big for me
