Customer Ratings & Reviews

My son had been frustrated for almost a year because of the lag on a cheap computer monitor since he plays Rivals. This computer monitor and setup has solved all those problems and no more frustration.

I can't compliment enough about OLED. Asus really creates PCs and components for gaming. Setup was super easy... Plug and play with windows 11. Auto recognition and self driver installation. I added the Asus Display widget to get full access to the monitors customization. The Asus Amory software did not pick this up for any customization options. Just for registration. So I had to use their Asilus Display widget program for customization. Going on YouTube and streaming 8k videos is stellar and vibrant. Super nice rich colors. Near proximity sensor to trim off screen to prevent burn in. Switching to game play. Zero lag and response time is great... Again colors are rich and vibrant. Playing my kids Geometry Dash and my Rainbow Six games were flawless. Connection ability is great. 1 USB b3 2 USB 3 2 HDMI 1 Sport 1 headphone jack Monitor itself is super light and thin. The desk stand is easy to use and put together. Rotating the screen either clockwise or counterclockwise is super limited it only adjust very little so definitely you can't use for long document readin. Also twisting in and and out on both left and right is about 25 degrees. Up and down is pretty decent travel. Viewing angles are good no side view cutoff. Only other wish I had for the monitor is for it to have lighting on the back of the monitor that is customizable. Other than that. OLED is bar far more superior compared to the other technology currently in the market in my opinion.

Curved vs Flat? Glossy vs Matte? For several months, I've been using an Alienware 3225QF 32" OLED display and I've really enjoyed it. My wife has also been eyeing it up as she wants an OLED for her gaming station too so I picked up the Asus ROG Strix XG32UQDMS 32" OLED and we both decided I would try and test both and see the pros and cons and then she would decide which one she wants. Asus has the "brown box" experience down to a science with many of their items. Very basic and plain on the outside reserving all the magic for inside the box. Inside, you get your display, stand, cables and a nice little zip up case to hold all your accessories and what Asus ROG item wouldn't be complete with a nice smattering of Asus stickers? Setup is a breeze and completely toolless. The display is much lighter than the Alienware and because it doesn't have such a heavy duty back and mild curve, you can place the display farther back easier on your desk or it can fit a smaller desk. The design is all black except for the lit Asus logo on the bottom that turns light red when off/standby and the classic intense red when on. I like this. Since the XG32UQDMS uses the same 3rd generation QD-LED panel as the Alienware, the specs are fairly similar. Inky blacks, 10-bit color, 240hz, good HDR and gorgeous. It really comes down to if you want matte over glossy or flat over a 1700r curve and then some QOL things to bring it home. I logged many hours playing WoW and Fallout 76 in 4k Ultra with HDR on w/ SDR gaming HDR enhancements on and the colors are gorgeous, detailed and well lit as only OLED can deliver. After a solid week plus of going back and forth, I am sold on the Asus over the Alienware for several reasons: I find the matte display to be superior in my mildly lit room with reflections minized and the colors more muted and life like in a good way. I am glad to be back to a flat display which is my preferred choice if pushed. The smaller depth allows me to place it better on my desk. It runs cooler and uses an external power adapter vs integrated in the Alienware and removes a point of failure if the power supply fails and you need to replace it. OLED Panel Lottery is always in play and after calibrating both, I actually find the matte panel colors are a bit more even (calibration/reading approved) and pops a bit more with bright/white images; when gaming, I was met with what I now realize is a bit too much gloss that makes things look a bit unrealistic and cartoonish on the Alienware. In Alienware's defense, I've long preferred matte panels for decades. Lastly, the Dell display is constantly trying to use Windows Updates to force all types of extensions and Alienware Command Center (ACC) on your system. It is a constant battle till you end up just turning off third party extension/software updates. The Asus offers/suggests their widget software but after suggesting it once, that is it and it can be downloaded at your discretion from their website. This is the right way to do it. The few complaints I slowly gathered about the Alienware have all been addressed with the Asus. Luckily for me, my wife preferred the Alienware for many of the reasons I picked the Asus. She prefers the slight curve and glossy panel (she uses her computer in the dark) as she says it makes it easier for her to read edge text, so happiness continues to reign supreme in our household.

This is my first 4K monitor and I'm really happy with how everything looks on it as my main monitor. I even retired my ultra-wide curved monitor (3840x1440) to a secondary monitor because I like the 16:9 aspect for gaming and how crisp everything looks on this 4K. Setup is simple as any monitor setup. Plug in the power, plug in the DisplayPort/HDMI and optionally plug in the USB. Power it up and it's ready to go. There's a lot of settings to play around with to tweak things just how you like it but, luckily, there's a lot of different presets that might be good for you depending on the type of game you're playing. Even cooler (something I haven't seen on a lot of other monitors) is you can install their DisplayWidget Center app and tweak most of those settings from your computer without needing to fiddle with the little joystick behind the monitor. Everything looks really nice and sharp right off the bat but you could also spend all day playing with settings to see if you can squeeze a tiny bit more out of your picture. I found cinema mode to be really nice to look at when watching movies. Some of the gaming presets do some things I'm not a huge fan of (like cranking up the brightness). I'm definitely looking for visual fidelity and accuracy over one more kill because my screen was brighter than the sun. But that's just a me thing so if you're looking for any possible competitive advantage, you might like those things more. Speaking of competitive advantages, like a lot of monitors these days, this one has things like an FPS counter, a crosshair and even a "sniper" zoom that creates a small zoomed in box in the middle of the screen for you. Again, I don't personally like these features as they come off as a bit too cheaty and I'd rather "git gud" instead. But I can see why some people might like these things. It's really true that once you go OLED you can't go back. HDR and OLED on this monitor really shine through as you can't get blacker than the blacks and the contrast on HDR videos and games just doesn't look better on any other monitor I've seen. I'm about to sit back and watch a bunch of movies and replay a bunch of games that I've already gone through just to see them look even better. I really don't know what else to say. If I have to find something to complain about, it's something that I've seen on mutliple really nice monitors lately and that's the area where your ports are located is too low on the monitor and it's pretty much impossible to hide your cables entirely without buying special cables with right angles or something. It's really a baffling trend that I've seen as it seems like there's no thought given to how your completed monitor setup looks after all the thought given to the rest of the design and feature set. I have my monitor hanging on the wall and it really is impossible to make the DisplayPort and HDMI cables not peak out of the bottom of the monitor a little bit. I just wish the ports were higher up to give room for the plugs and then curving the cable up and out of the way. Bottom line here. This is a beast of a monitor. The picture is gorgeous. The colors are fantastic and vivid. The blacks are black. The HDR looks amazing. Everything (aside from the visible cables) is great and if you're looking for an amazing gaming monitor, you should definitely give this one a look.

This monitor just make color look amazing. Its like when you got to the store and look at the OLED TV's, and then the other cheap ones, you see how much better the OLED is. When I turn on my games that looked decent before, they look so much better with the vibrant colors. Since if 4k, you also get crazy clear view too on top of the great looking colors. The 240 Mhz refresh rate is great too, and makes my games look smooth. Now I can't just say all good things about the monitor. I would have preferred extra wide, so if you've used an extra wide monitor this is back to "normal" so a little less view side to side. The other thing I'm not the biggest fan of is the placement of the buttons, and when you do go to turn off the monitor, is a button on the back and you need to press two buttons to make it happen. One important thing when you get this monitor, is to download the drivers and the Display Widget Center app that comes with it. Windows doesn't recognize the monitor when plugged in the DP, and adding the app and drivers you get the correct settings in windows that you don't get if you just plug it in. The Display Widget Center isn't the greatest looking app, but it does help with all the settings as the buttons are a bit of a pain to work with, so avoiding those is great. I didn't like the multi screen, but changing settings otherwise is fine. Overall, if you're looking for a good looking monitor and want to get an OLED one, this is a great choice. Just make sure to get the drivers and app once you get it.

I’ve been enjoying my ASUS OLED Gaming monitor for a couple of years now, and it’s fantastic! But, as much as I love it, I knew it was time for a bigger, more powerful monitor to handle all my gaming needs. When I saw this new 32” 4K OLED from ASUS, I knew I had to give it a try. I’ve got a few devices hooked up to my monitors: an ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 with an RTX 5070 Ti that takes care of most of my gaming. Plus, I’m running a PS5 Pro, Switch 2, Xbox Series X, and a M5 MacBook Pro. This monitor makes each of these sources look absolutely stunning. It’s amazing to see the huge contrast between shadows and highlights in games, movies, images, and more. I was already a fan of my older 27” ASUS monitor, but this new 32” one really takes the cake. Gaming on here is such a treat. The fast response time and quick refresh rate make any game you play look amazing without any noticeable screen tearing. The OLED and 4K resolution make the image look like art. I’ve played a few games on here so far, Crimson Desert and the new Midnight expansion of WoW, and both look fantastic. This 32” monitor even makes Pokopia look great running on the Switch 2. I’m honestly so happy with this monitor, and it’s definitely a worthy upgrade to my older 27” OLED ASUS monitor. I highly recommend it!

Upgrading to the ASUS ROG Strix 32-inch OLED has been a real improvement over my prior monitor. I have been using a 1080p IPS monitor for years, and while it served me well, I finally reached a point where I wanted to use the more modern tech that I’ve seen at stores and read online. I wasn't just looking for a bigger screen but an improvement in clarity and smoothness. The difference was immediate. The 4K resolution makes everything look incredibly sharp, but the OLED panel is a massive upgrade. The colors are vibrant without looking fake, and the true blacks are so incredibly dark, I would say my old monitor’s blacks were grey by comparison. It makes cinematic games feel like a theater experience and competitive games feel much more fluid. The stand is sturdy and easy to adjust to the right height. It also has built-in cable management and USB-C ports that are great for keeping the desk clean and managing the usual mess of wires. It’s awesome to use tech that actually feels like an upgrade over my previous setup.

When choosing an OLED monitor for the first time it can be daunting as there are so many options and the naming can be very confusing. There are two types of OLED panels for gaming monitors out there QD-OLED or WOLED. This model is a 3rd Generation QD-OLED under the ROG STRIX line meant for performance gaming that offers exceptional color saturation, brightness and there darkest black hues. This model comes packed in a 32' 4K model with true 10 BIT COLOR and 99% DCI-P3 color accuracy and 240HZ. My gaming rig is a ASUS TUG GAMING OC 5090, 9800X3D. Setting up the monitor was pretty simple once plugged in, make sure to go to the NVIDIA Control panel and enable 10bit color. Then next step is to go in and adjust to your preferred color setting. I change it to scenery out the gate to have everything just pop for a bit and get the colors working. Performance Review: I will start with a small disclaimer, I personally have purchased Gen 1 QD-OLED and a GEN 3 WOLED. This model XG32UQDMS builds off of the best technology out there for OLED monitors minus the KVM SWITCH and the DOLBY VISION HDR. That being said this monitor excels for gamers, The picture is so crips and color accurate its scary. the richness and vividness is astonishing on this 3rd GEN QD-OLED panel even in a bright room. The purple hue that plagued the GEN1 panels is gone. You get inky dark blacks. The light reflection isn't distracting, its more muted with the glossy screen. I tested over 30 top games and every game was rich and vibrant and had zero issues displaying HDR content and regular standard color content. Additionally, typing on this was a dream, the letters and words are kept whole and don't have any fringing issues. If you are looking to step up your display setup and take advantage of your games this monitor will change how you look at games. just pure clarity and colors.

I’m an avid player of Call of Duty: Mobile. Over the years, my setup has evolved to the point that I’m using a RedMagic Astra gaming tablet alongside a Bluetooth controller and an external monitor. Several months ago, I moved that setup from my main desk to a separate gaming space that included a 27-inch 2K monitor. While that monitor (also an ASUS) has been a powerful display, I didn’t feel like it was future proof in case I ever wanted to move to a 4K option. That’s why this ROG Strix OLED made perfect sense for me to transition to. The 32-inch size is still perfect for my mobile-driven gaming setup and with the 240 Hz refresh rate, I am ensured to get the 144 fps in game that I want from CODM. I was also happy to have this 4K option since it opens up the opportunity for me to connect one of my consoles if I want. One of the things I like a lot about the ASUS monitors is their menu system. It’s very easy to navigate. As far as image quality goes, I have been very impressed. The OLED panel does a good job of providing a crisp, clear image with true black tones. Text was easy to read and colors were vibrant. The typical brightness is 250 nits, but the peak HDR brightness goes up to 1,000 nits, which is great for more dynamic contrast. In addition to CODM, I also played some League of Legends on my MacBook Pro and thought it looked fabulous. I appreciate that the monitor has a DisplayPort 1.4 and two HDMI 2.1 ports. It does not have a USB-C port for connectivity, which would be very helpful. As it is right now, I have to utilize a dock to be able to connect the tablet to the monitor. It would be great to be able to directly connect the tablet to the monitor without an adapter. I did connect to my dock using the DisplayPort connector and it worked beautifully. The monitor has worked really well with my existing gear and I was essentially able to drop it right into my setup with no issues. It’s a fantastic gaming monitor, but could also be great for productivity, too.

The ASUS ROG Swift 32” 4K OLED Gaming Monitor (XG32UQDMS) is easily one of the best displays I’ve used, especially for gaming. The glossy QD-OLED panel is the real star here—HDR content shines with incredibly deep blacks and vibrant colors, making games and movies feel cinematic & real to life. The 240Hz refresh rate and 0.03ms response time deliver silky smooth performance that’s perfect for fast-paced titles. Thin bezels and the "Superslim Frameless design" add to the premium feel. The Displaywidget Center gives you a powerful monitor management software once downloaded & provides a vast amount of customizations. The image clarity is razor-sharp, colors are vibrant, and the blacks are deep and inky thanks to true OLED contrast. This is a huge advantage in dark, atmospheric games where detail and immersion matter. It also comes with a pixel cleaning mode. So you dont get burnouts.That said, there are some drawbacks. The back of the monitor uses a lot of plastic, which feels less premium—especially when paired with the ROG monitor arm, where a sturdier all-metal design would have been ideal. Overall, this is still a gorgeous, top-tier gaming monitor. The combination of a glossy screen, blazing-fast 240Hz, and stunning HDR makes it worth the high price tag. Despite a few design quirks and limitations with VRR and SDR handling, the PG32UCDM is an excellent choice for anyone who wants a premium OLED experience for gaming.

ASUS ROG Strix 32" 4K OLED 240Hz 0.03ms Gaming Monitor is wonderful in short. I have used this monitor for gaming and for photography. I am thoroughly impressed with this monitor. I have used other high-end monitors in the past, and this one definitely takes the cake. I am overall extremely satisfied. Now, depending on your graphics card, depends on how the monitor’s settings are, but you can also download widgets to assist with setting up your monitor for you specific game play. Here’s one great feature about the monitor that you need to prepare yourself for, and that is pixel cleaning, it will keep the image from being burned into your screen, which is definitely great. It is also a great reminder not to just leave your game on a specific screen for too long. The on / off button, along with the menu buttons, are not in some awful place like they are on most; this one is actually dead center at the button of the screen in a joystick style, which again is an actual great thoughout feature. The picture is so much more vivid than my other ASUS monitors. Overall, this monitor is perfect!!

I never knew I needed a 4k monitor until I got this one. Asus has really up’d their game when it comes to quality but this is my first asus monitor that is 4k and it’s a world of difference. Super easy install because I used the table mount which is the safest I think to me. And it is just a line up and click of the mount. The monitor is crystal clear and it has enough hdmi / usb outlets for my laptop and anything else that I need to work from home and hem I want to game I can use the same equipment. Nothing major to get it up and running just plug to a source, ie Laptop and it will be recognized and relay visuals. I have not yet tuned it for gaming use but I have for all my 9-5p work stuff. I’m able to split that screen into to 4 smaller screens and be super productive and can see everything clearly. I consider it very productive monitor and I can use it for fun as well which is functional and worth it. Over all it will be hard to go bbl to anything less that what I have now. I really like it

I have had the Asus ROG Strix gaming monitor for about a week now as of this writing. I’ve been impressed every step of the way from just how thin and lighter than I imagined it would be, to the amazing image in 4K OLED. Really the only thing I can think off of the top of my head that could compare would be a LG or Samsung TV. The size of this specific monitor I am reviewing is the 32” that is also equipped with 240hz, .03ms response time that puts this monitor over the edge for best monitor for your gaming needs. While I have included pictures to show off some beautiful visuals in gaming I have been enjoying, namely Mario Wonder in 4K on the Switch 2. Simply stunning to put it mildly. I also tried out Mario Kart World and Sonic X Shadow Generations on the PS5 & Resident Evil Requiem on PC, and was not disappointed in the slightest. With the refresh time and 4K visuals, I noticed my games felt easier to play. More responsive all around in every game. I found a really good problem to have in that I have at least 3 systems fighting for that OLED screen time, which makes deciding what exactly to play a rather difficult decision. Unfortunately there are only 2 HDMI ports which is the norm for monitors, I would love it if there were at least 3 in the back. Along with HDMI ports, there are USB and a headphone jack port for speakers for audio, but know that they need to have their own power supply as this ROG monitor will not supply it. As for monitors, the $999 price is steep, but you see where that comes from the second you lay your eyes on that screen. Now if price is not that huge of an issue, this is a no brainer for a monitor for gaming, movies, editing etc. I highly recommend this monitor to anyone interested as I feel it brings out everything you want from a 4K screen.

Let’s get to the point. This monitor is a thing of beauty. I remember being okay with not having an OLED monitor with my setup for the longest time. Then, when I decided to start using an OLED monitor, wow, what a fantastic difference a display type can make. This isn’t my first OLED display, but I am upgrading from an ultrawide QHD OLED monitor. I understand OLEDS are pricy, but if you are on the edge of obtaining your first OLED display or are looking for an upgrade from your current one, please put this into consideration. In this review, I will cover the pros and cons of this gaming monitor. This is my review of the ASUS ROG Strix 32" 4K Ultra HD 240Hz 0.03ms GTG OLED Gaming Monitor (XG32UQDMS). *TLDR at the bottom ===================== IN THE BOX/SET-UP: In the box, you get everything nicely packed and organized. There is a neat accessory bag included to store all your cables and unused accessories. I haven’t seen something like this included before. Kudos to ASUS for including the bag! In addition to the bag, you get a Display Port cable, a USB-B to USB-A cable, a power supply/cable, a cleaning cloth, a VESA mount, documentation, and some stickers. Setup is straightforward. Simply plug stuff in and turn on the monitor. The monitor will then go through an initial pixel cleaning. You could leave the monitor at its default settings, but what’s the fun in that? I highly recommend you play around with the monitor’s settings to optimize the visuals. If you are on PC, this can easily be done with ASUS’s DisplayWidget Center or the OSD menu. If you are on console, some features can be edited using the OSD menu. ===================== FIRST IMPRESSIONS: I am coming from an ultrawide curved monitor. One of the first things I noticed with the ASUS ROG Strix gaming monitor was the lack of curve. I don’t think a curved display is needed with something this size, but I did quickly notice the smaller horizontal screen real estate. But I am not complaining, I was looking to downsize, so this was a welcome. Just keep that in mind if you are looking to downsize. There are also no speakers. But there is a headphone jack along with 1 DP(1.4), 2 HDMI(2.1) ports, and 2 USB-A ports. I do have 2 suggestions/complaints with the I/O. I would’ve preferred DP 2.1 at this price range (for future proofing). And instead of the 2 USB-A ports, I wish at least one of those were replaced with a USB-C port. Something new that I have yet to see in a monitor that this one has is the Neo Proximity Sensor. This sensor detects your distance from the monitor, and when you step away, the screen fades to black. Pretty neat! One of the first things I did with this monitor was watch one of those UHD scenic YouTube videos. You will quickly notice how much colors pop. The wide color gamut this monitor has stands out considerably in colorful scenes, like in some of those YouTube videos. Deep black scenes look even more wonderful. The inky black and various shades of black are especially prominent. On top of that, not one inch of blooming! Overall, this monitor left an amazing first impression on me. ===================== FEATURES: This ASUS ROG Strix gaming monitor is packed with premium features. Many monitors are moving over to dedicated apps to edit a monitor’s settings. This one is no different. The DisplayWidget Center app is great. It’s a convenient way of editing your monitor’s settings quickly. I tend to switch between monitor modes depending on the game or media I am watching. The app is a great tool for this, I highly recommend it! This gaming monitor has different HDR settings. Cinema HDR, Gaming HDR, Console HDR, and HDR400. Apart from Windows looking terrible with HDR turned on, everything else is incredible. I’ve been able to play console games, watch films, and play my PS5 with this monitor, and each mode is seriously tailored to each of these activities. The only HDR setting that I thought was subpar was the Console HDR setting. I personally enjoyed the HDR400 setting with my PS5 games. Colors popped more, blacks looked amazing. and the different shades were distinguishable. For the longest time, I thought the ASUS logo on the back of the monitor could light up. I then found that the RGB logo is exclusive to the PG model of this monitor. Now that I know this, I wish this feature were included because the ASUS logo now just looks like a dead bulb. I’ve already briefly talked about the Neo Proximity Sensor, but I do want to briefly mention that the sensor is sensitive. If something is covering the sensor, the monitor will turn off even if you are actively using it. There are also plenty of OLED care options since OLED displays have a bigger risk of burn-in. The Neo Proximity Sensor is one and another one is an option called screen dimming control. This dims the screen after a period of inactivity. Additionally, you can set a pixel cleaning reminder, which can then be triggered in the monitor’s settings. This cleaning takes about 6 minutes. I’m not quite sure if there is a way to automate this function or if it can only be triggered manually. My previous OLED monitor would automatically perform a pixel clean after a couple of hours, and after it had been turned off. I haven’t found a way for this monitor to do something similar, which is a minor downside. ===================== PERFORMANCE: In terms of performance, the ASUS ROG Strix gaming monitor is remarkable. I was able to use this monitor in three different settings. For PC gaming, PS5, and as a work monitor. I will start with my experience using this as a work monitor. This is overkill for a work monitor. I am not a graphic designer, so I cannot speak in that aspect, but I do work in IT and deal a lot with multitasking. The monitor is large enough to fit two windows comfortably side-by-side for multitasking. Websites will look wonderful with sharp text and amazing colors. But if you plan to use a lot of static elements, I would recommend a non-OLED monitor to prevent burn-in. This monitor is also excellent for films and TV shows. With the 16:9 aspect ratio, content will appear without black bars on the left and right sides. This, paired with Cinema mode, will give you wonderful visuals. This gaming monitor is perfect for PC gaming. With a 32” 4K display and up to 240Hz refresh rate, you have everything you need for your game to stand out visually, or if you prefer performance, this monitor can handle that too. For optimal visuals, I used the app to change modes. For example, I used FPS mode for Battlefield 6, which made colors pop so that an enemy could be easily seen. And for something like Control, I used RTS/RPG mode, which dimmed the display and made the colors a little more accurate. And with Ray Tracing turned on, Control was just simply immersive. I don’t have the beefiest PC, but I was able to hit a high framerate in some of my games, like Tomb Raider, which performed great at a slightly lower resolution. All these games had one thing in common. They all looked fantastic. The wide color gamut seriously made my games look more realistic. I am more of an eye candy person than performance. If you prefer visual quality over performance, this gaming monitor will give you that. As for console, PS5 games simply look beautiful on this monitor. With the desired HDR mode enabled, all your games will look wonderful. This monitor has a 16:9 aspect ratio; therefore, you won’t need to worry about those pesky black bars that Ultrawides have whenever a console is used on them. The gaming monitor also supports the maximum 4K at 120FPS. I don’t have any games that can quite hit these numbers, but this monitor should be able to support everything the PS5 has to offer. For example, in TLOU ll, with Fidelity mode turned on, deep blacks were distinguishable, and some iconic scenes were awe-inspiring. And games with a myriad of colors, like Ratchet and Clank, delivered outstanding, vivid colors. ===================== CONCLUSION/TLDR: Overall, the ASUS ROG Strix gaming monitor is remarkable. The monitor was able to handle everything I threw at it, from office work to movies, PC gaming, and console gaming. The various HDR modes make certain items pop when enabled. I also enjoyed how quickly the monitor’s settings can be changed with the PC app. A couple of cons I ran into were the lack of DP 2.1 and USB-C ports. Another one was the lack of automatic pixel cleaning, which, as far as I’m aware, needs to be run manually. Anyways, if you are looking for an outstanding monitor for your first OLED display or even a replacement, I wholeheartedly recommend you give this one a trial run!

This 32" 4K QD-OLED gaming monitor is pretty amazing. I love the quality of the image it produces especially in HDR at 240Hz as well as the low response time. I like the stand and the adjustments are nice but to me it is kind of difficult to get up under the hub and connect things but it's fine I suppose if you aren't really disconnecting or connecting a lot of the time. The display widget center is a very useful tool and is needed for firmware updates and it's a got a bit more options to choose from compared to the OSD. When I first got this I thought I had trouble with the back ROG logo RGB not working but after reading the manual and closely looking at the back panel over and over again and not having an option in the OSD for Aura sync/lighting effects or not even connecting to Armoury Crate, resetting the device did not help, I decided that I'm pretty sure this specific monitor does NOT have RGB which is fine with me I don't even care and would prefer it off but was disappointing a little especially that you can't change even the front Logo lights for the power on only can turn it off. The hub underneath USB-A's only work if you connect the USB-B to USB-A to the device you're using if you have a lot of peripheral's and don't want to use a dock. Otherwise a typical PC will or should have plenty of ports anyways. It would have also been nice if they added a couple USB-C ports to this hub. I would say overall the monitor is decent and worth it but would have been nice if they also included an HDMI cable just for fun or even and HDMI to USB-C or DisplayPort to USB-C to help connect to other devices. The one major bummer and only con for me at least is the lack of built in speakers. I was going to connect my Apple TV to this monitor to test how well the graphics were for that but realized I had no way to play the audio so that was just sad especially for how thick the back is I know there is a lot of the custom heat sink and airflow hardware but still I think adding some speakers would really make this monitor truely wonderful. It has an audio jack so I guess that's something but in a world with Bluetooth connections and wireless options it's kind of useless for me, I guess it's one less thing to break down over time with this monitor that only gets a 3 year warranty.

I got this and the Samsung G80SD. Both are comparable and I think I like the ROG a little more. Just try out different settings on both. The interface on the ROG is much better. I think colors are a little more vivid on the Samsung, but the functionality is way better on the ROG. You can't go wrong with either, but I would probably get the ROG if prices were exactly the same. Otherwise I would get whichever was cheaper. I was worried about text fringing as I use these mainly for work, but text looks phenomenal on both. Just don't get an entry level OLED for office work. The text on a cheap OLED made my head hurt.

Continuing with being an ASUS family for almost 20 years now (5 monitors, motherboards, and even monitors for my clients), we were looking for another great, larger monitor to be the center of one of our gaming setups. The ASUS ROG Strix 32" 4K QD-OLED turned out to be what we were looking for. Getting it set up is quick and easy. Just assemble the two stand pieces and snap it into the back of the monitor. There is also a separate VESA mount it has so it is easier to install on a monitor mount, just snapping into the same receptacle in the back. There is not much to the bezel (like most high-end monitors lately). The main panel itself is not very thick, but the main control system attached to the lower back that is a decent size. Overall, especially when attached to the very sturdy, adjustable stand, it has some weight to it. For inputs, there are two HDMI 2.1 ports, one DisplayPort 1.4. It comes with one cable for each of the import types, all in a nice little zippered storage pouch. One thing that is different from the 27" is that it no longer has the USB-C port DisplayPort. There is also a USB 3.2 hub with 3 Type-A port and a Type-B port to connect to the computer (the USB 3.2 Type-B cable is also included). And on the inputs side, there is a 3.5mm headphone jack (but no built-in speakers). The control buttons are on the back, just behind the bottom center logo. There is the stick in the middle to control the menu, power button to the right and cancel button to the left. I do like this button setup as it fixes the main issue I have with the TUF monitors in a multiple-monitor setup with their button layout making it difficult to access when not the far-right monitor. Pressing the stick as a button brings up the main menu. The stick itself has shortcuts to certain menu function depending on which way it is moved. They have default actions but can be changed. In addition to the monitor-based setup, it can also be changed via the ASUS DisplayWidget app, where just able every setting in the monitor menu is accessible. Just like I was in awe of the details the first time I viewed 4K content on the 27" ROG monitor, I was not disappointed, even though it is a bigger screen and lower DPI. Everything looked great, from the background wallpaper to the details while gaming! The gameplay in 4K, running at all the highest setting and 4K resolution was great and displayed so smoothly! This is being used on a newly installed Radeon RX 9070 XT with 16GB, but any decent newer GPU should handle providing the content. The 1.5M:1 contrast ratio and 0.03ms response time are definitely helpful. Everything about this monitor makes me feel it should be one of the top 4K gaming monitors in the 32" range, if not the best!

I’ll be the first to admit that I’m a true ASUS fan, and yeah, that might bring a little bias, but honestly, that comes from experience. ASUS has consistently set the bar high for me when it comes to gaming gear, especially monitors, and the ASUS ROG Strix OLED 32” gaming monitor just reinforces why I keep going back to them. This thing absolutely lives up to the expectations I had going in and then some. Unboxing it was exactly what I’ve come to expect from ROG, clean, well-organized, and everything you need to get up and running right away. You even get some ROG branded stickers, which is a nice little bonus if you’re into decking out your setup. The stand assembly is quick and toolless, and ASUS does a great job protecting that OLED panel with a removable film during install, which I always appreciate given how sensitive these screens can be. Once everything is set up, it’s as simple as plugging in the power supply, hooking up the included HDMI cable, and powering it on. That’s when it hits you. The first thing that stood out to me was just how insanely good this display looks. The deep blacks from the OLED panel are on another level, and the colors just pop in a way that’s hard to explain until you see it in person. It’s one of those moments where even your boot screen looks premium. The 240Hz refresh rate is buttery smooth, and everything from desktop navigation to high speed gaming feels incredibly fluid. What surprised me even more is how the 32” size feels. It almost looks bigger because of the near bezel-less design and the contrast from those deep blacks, but it still sits perfectly in that sweet spot between 27 and 32 inches without feeling overwhelming. I’ve got this paired with a pretty capable setup, an ASUS Prime RTX 5060 Ti 16GB, 32GB of RAM, and an Intel i7-14700K and it handles this monitor like a champ. I’m pushing high refresh rates with what feels like a near 4K experience, and visually it’s just flawless. AAA titles like Cyberpunk, Hogwarts Legacy, and racing sims look absolutely stunning, while ARPGs like Path of Exile 2 and Diablo feel way more immersive thanks to the color depth and responsiveness. There’s a lot of newer tech packed into this monitor too. The NEO proximity sensor is designed to help prevent OLED burn-in by turning the screen black when you step away and waking it back up when you return. I gave it a shot, but personally, it wasn’t for me. It didn’t trigger consistently, and when it did, it made me second guess whether something was wrong with the monitor. I ended up turning it off and just relying on the built-in image cleaning when powering down, which feels more than sufficient for my use. There’s also a widget center for deeper customization, but honestly, I haven’t felt the need to mess with it much because the out of the box settings already look incredible. Design wise, it sticks to that clean ROG aesthetic. The stand has a relatively small footprint but feels very sturdy, and adjustments for height and tilt are smooth and effortless. It stays exactly where you set it, which is something I don’t take for granted. There’s definitely a lot more under the hood with this monitor, especially with the newer AI driven features. But for now, I’ve just been enjoying what it does best such as delivering insanely vibrant visuals and ultra smooth performance. If you’re in the market for a high-end OLED gaming monitor and don’t mind spending a bit more for something that sits above the mid-tier crowd, this one absolutely earns its place.

The ASUS ROG Strix 32” 4K OLED gaming monitor is really awesome. It's big and sturdy. I like that the base is heavy but has a small footprint. The image is crisp and bright with good blacks. I tried this out with my gaming laptop, which has a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, by playing Xbox and PC games and streaming movies. I was very impressed with the performance and had no issues. I connected this directly to my Xbox Series X and loved the size and performance. I think this is a great monitor if you're wanting to hook up directly to a console. The last thing I tried out was hooking this up to my gaming PC with a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti. That performed well also playing games and streaming. I was able to get each device up to 4K and 240Hz. I played Forza Horizon 5, Halo Infinite, Mortal Kombat 11, and Destiny 2. I was really impressed with the smoothness in Destiny 2 during intense combat. This has a lot of burn in protection. It blacks the screen out when it doesn't detect you're sitting there. I liked the screen saver that would dim the screen when it wasn't being used. Then there's a lot of behind the scenes technology like icon and task bar detection to help minimize burn in. I wish there were some custom lighting options on the back. Outside of this not being a curved monitor this is my favorite gaming monitor. I would recommend this for any gamer or content creator.

I’ve been using the ASUS ROG Strix 32" 4K OLED for a bit now and honestly it’s kind of ridiculous in the best way. The picture quality is the first thing that hits you—OLED blacks are actually black, and colors pop without looking fake. Games just look insane, especially anything with HDR. The 240Hz refresh rate is super smooth too, even just moving around the desktop feels better. What surprised me most is how responsive it feels. That 0.03ms response time isn’t just marketing fluff—everything feels super snappy, especially in fast shooters. No noticeable ghosting or blur at all. It’s not perfect though. Like most OLEDs, I still have that tiny worry about burn-in, and it’s definitely not cheap. Also, the size might be a bit much if you’re sitting really close. But overall, if you want something that feels like a real upgrade and not just a spec bump, this monitor absolutely delivers. The build quality is solid too, and the design looks clean without being over the top. The stand is sturdy and easy to adjust.
