Asus ROG Swift PG32UQX - 32" 4K, 144Hz, HDR-1400, G-Sync, 1152 Mini-LED zones

No, not that are any good anyway. Which is why i am till stuck with my 32" 4k IPS 60hz screen i bought 4 yeas ago for £450. Nothing better yet.
"not that are any good anyway". yes my 4k 28" was priced less than £450 when I bought it and hence why I am looking for a better one. However I don't want to spend silly money (£450 is probably the max that I would consider)
 
So it's now September 2020 and this monitor is nowhere to be found?

Any other 32" 4K120 monitors out there?

None that are available.

From what I can see, we have the following on the way, eventually...

Asus PG32UQX - as in this thread.
Asus PA32UCG - 120Hz, mini-LED FALD, HDR-10, VRR (but not G-Sync / G-Sync Ultimate)
Acer X32 - 144Hz, mini-LED FALD, G-Sync Ultimate, 1400-nits HDR. €3350
Acer XB323QK - 144Hz, "G-Sync compatible", 400 nits. €1099
ViewSonic XG320U - 144Hz, DisplayHDR 600, HDMI 2.1, €999

All are IPS and those that mention it have a wide colour gamut... I wonder what the odds on them all (behind the scenes) using the same basic panel?

As for release dates, nothing concrete anywhere, annoyingly - mention of August (from articles in June, obviously rubbish), others say September (I suspect rubbish again, as we'd have heard by now), yet more say early next year...

No RRPs in pounds, either, just euros and dollars.
 
I think someone should investigate market fixing at this point tbh there is something hidden about why its taking panel manufacturers this long to produce, that's not purely down to technical reasons.

There is a Philips model too on the horizon fyi, Q1 2021
 
I want one of the following Innolux panel monitors.

Megazone 31.5” 4K 120Hz/144Hz
7ms (GtG) HDR1000 94% DCI-P3
2 million local dimming zones

MiniLED 31.5” 4K 120Hz/144Hz
7ms (GtG) 1000-nits 95% BT 2020
10,000 local dimming zones

Both were meant to be out Q3 2020.
 
DP 1.4 being fine to use for 4K high refresh with hdr etc but how does a premium screen being released in 2021 NOT have HDMI 2.1?! Given the GPUs being used on them and consoles will now support this.

I think HDMI 2.1 is aimed solidly at consoles. Particularly as the CX48 inch OLED guys still cant run theirs with 3000 series cards at 4k 120hz. Last I looked anyway.
 
Would be nice if ASUS and Acer could get these 32" 4K 144Hz G-Sync models out before the end of the year. This really would have been a very complimentary product launch along side the RTX 3000 series.

I'm using a QHD 32" G-Sync LG monitor at the moment and I really don't want to step down to a 4K at 27", I would definitely feel the reduction in screen real estate.

Was looking at doing a new build and enjoying many hours with Cyberpunk 2077 over the couple of weeks holiday time I have lined up in December :p

I get the console argument. One could argue it's not NEEDED on a monitor exactly, although there would be benefit to it. Plenty of people use monitors with consoles also, so that rules this out with the PG32UQX. More to the point though, it's the perception of value when it's not included. Seems a mistake to me to not do so, given this is obviously going to be a premium product with a price tag to match. Not including HDMI 2.1 will put quite a few people off, and certainly anyone who wants to hook up a next gen console to it will look elsewhere.

Completely agree, particularity when they still add composite connections and stuff barely anyone uses anymore.
