Ok gamers...
Need some insight (coming from the Australian market here)
I'm ready to pull the trigger (though willing to wait as far as seeing what black friday sales bring) to buy a 32 inch 4k 240hz oled screen. I've noticed (like most) that there's a lot of price disparity between the regions so I wanted to throw down the Australian prices and get the take from the brains trust here.
ASUS PG32UCDM - QDOLED - $2750 (dp1.4, 90w type c)
ASUS PG32UCDP - WOLED - $2400 (dp1.4, 90w type c, dual mode to 1080p @ 480hz)
Gigabyte AORUS - FO32U2P - QDOLED - $2200 (dp2.1 UHBR20, 65w type c)
MSI MPG 321URX - QDOLED - $2200 (dp1.4, 90w type c)
MSI MAG 321UPX - QDOLED - $2200 (dp1.4, 15w type c - earlier models have firmware flashing issues)
Alienware AW3225QF - QDOLED - $1900 (dp1.4, not sure about it's power delivery through type c, has an active cooling fan and is curved)
LG - 32GS95UE-B - WOLED - $2400 (dp1.4, not sure about power delivery - dual mode to 1080p @ 480hz)
Samsung - LS32DG802SEXXY - QDOLED - $2000 (dp1.4, no usb type c)
I've seen the Alienware drop from 1900 to as low as 1425 (25% off) and don't care about the curve but will lose my mind with the active cooling.
I've seen the MSI MAG drop to 1750 (20% off ) but it's got lower power delivery and possible firmware upgrade path difficulties (depending on what revision you get)
I've seen the Samsung for 1600 (20% off and less with a trade in)
The biggest issue I've got though is I can't go and see any of these screen in real life before making a purchase (no one in my town has them in stock - order in only)
I'm a gamer, streamer and content consumer (movies, tv etc from streaming services) but I have zero need for 480hz mode the WOLED's have (or their 2 year warranty)
I can't justify the ASUS premium for any reason.
It's comes down to I quite like the MSI models, but would probably prefer to have more than 15w pd and easily upgradeable firmware, so that makes me look at the MPG, but for the same money the gigabyte model has UHBR20 which seems like a nice upgrade down the road)
Anyone got any input (definitely don't get x, or do look at y, or use case z makes this one great/garbage) budget's not really an issue despite the ASUS comment.
