Had my gigabyte m32u for 3 years and ready for a jump to OLED.

What are people's thoughts on this monitor ? Seems a great buy for £799!

Thanks Ben

I've been looking at this too, but seen quite a few complaints that it's not g-sync compatible, which would be a colossal deal breaker for me... It looks like MPG monitors take firmware updates but the MAG versions don't, which is a bizarre thing to leave off any premium, modern monitor IMO.

Ended up going with the 32" Odyssey OLED G80SD instead. I managed to get a good deal with Black Friday discounts on another site, £170 more than the MSI one you linked, but it has a lot more going for it.

I've done more digging since I posted a couple of hours ago and the MAG version seems to be widely lambasted as a poor OLED option. The MPG version is the on you want, but it's not on sale... and it's very expensive at just under £1,200.

Thanks for your replies and info.

The difference is £400 which is slot.

G-sync is not something I use as a console gamer so I won't miss that.

I'm sure MSI back tracked on the firmware updates and now also release them for the 321UP model. Looking at the support section there a firmware listed as 4/11/24 version FW.014

It still uses the 3rd generation panel like the more expensive version.

I believe the usb c power delivery is only 15w rather than 90w on the more expensive model 321urx.

Really tempted to pull the trigger wish I could see them side by side.

Maybe wait till black Friday maybe the more expensive one will drop down closer to it.

I have the 27" version and looked at the MAG and MPG versions. There isn't any difference in panel and yes the MPG has USB-C rated at 90W but the MAG version can get firmware updates now

Great good to hear. Can I ask how you find text looks on the monitor ? Does it look worse than the gigabyte.

Thanks

I'll be keeping an eye on the 321UP price as well towards the end of this month. Hopefully it gets closer to £700 than it is now. I have a 100w multiport USB C charger so I don't need one in the monitor itself

Yeah I'm gonna hold off ordering untill black Friday just incase it drops. Already a fantastic price though.

Text has been fine. To be honest i never had a problem with text on the gigabyte but the msi is a next level monitor its super clear would have prefered it cheaper but hey its got to be the best 4k oled out there for price

mine works fine with g-sync turn on. OLED can suffer from VRR flickering but iv only noticed it on one game mainly in the menu but it didn't bother me
