I found this deal from centre com and bought one.
Pro: no delivery fee and since I am in Melbourne CBD it's only 2 days delivery. It's 2k and 32inch curved.
Con: not the lowest price. If you wanna pay till Christmas they gonna have a lower price but depends on whether you wanna wait or not.
Samsung G5 is a better brand but more expensive, I am looking for budge monitor anyway. And after carefully compared few 32 Curved monitors, I choose this one. Also I am only looking for 32inch curved monitors, so depends on what you need.
Samsung 32inch G5 was $379 during EOFY via their website.
Yeh, sadly, I am posting for people who missed the EOFY sales and don't want to wait till the Christmas sale. This monitor sales as $350 something one month ago. But I just missed it and don't want to wait.
@Jin798: fair enough!
I missed out on the Klarna deal for this monitor. But not in a rush so willing to wait. Hopefully some bargains on Black Friday
Any idea how much the 32" G7 was during EOFY?
G32QC-A has a different panel to the G32QC, I think the original G32QC is the better one out of the two but both are better than the G5 IMO. The G5 really isn't a great monitor.
Saw this this morning also. Thinking if should buy or not…..
I have been considering this been the whole weekend haha, hang in there bro.
Yes me too, comparing this with the Phillip one with is similar but comes with a $50 steam card
i got this gigabyte one for 399 and my experience with it has been quite good, really nice monitor for gaming and watching content since it's so big
Upgraded from a 1080p 32" 144hz a long time ago for 400 so this was a no brainer
Anyone who has this monitor can share what they think in turns of gaming and office use?
I don't, but a quick Google suggests it's a BGR panel. Be wary for office use.
Source on it being BGR?
I'm aware there's a couple of IPS models by Gigabyte that are BGR, but this one's a VA panel and after a quick search I'm not seeing anything to suggest that this model is BGR.
Is BGR bad?
this model has a RGB panel. M27Q is the one with BGR.
Yeah, you're right. Amazon was lumping reviews for both models together.
has annoying occasional dithering when running 165hz gsync
has headphone jack but no speakers
otherwise not bad
I purchased 3 of these for a triple sim racing setup about a month ago and have been very happy, no issues and quality is fine. The only thing that would be nice would be speakers but not a deal breaker for me. Can't comment for office use.
Perfect … this is what I have been wanting to know. You wouldn't happen to run ACC. If so .. what kind of FPS are you getting ?? TIA
Running iRacing. Mostly 150+ but down to about 115 in large field races at some tracks. Using Intel 10th Gen i7 with 2070 super GPU.
I own 2 of the 27 inch versions of this monitor. AMA.
hows life
anyhting else close to this for the price? Missed out the xiami 34" been hanging for something similar since
Are you buying mainly for gaming?
yeah gaming is a consideration
AOC CQ32G2E, Samsung G5 (was $399 during EOFY sale) and the Dell S3222DGM during eBay sale are all around this price range.
S3222DGM is rather new and not many reviews are available, G5 really isn't a good monitor IMO, AOC is inferior to this in terms of ghosting & black smearing control but both AOC and Dell have better warranty than Gigabyte.
Not sure about G32QC A but the original G32QC is a pretty good monitor for the price, the problem is quality control isn't great and backlight bleed is rather common for all Gigabyte monitors.
Be wary of these.
Bought 2 in 2020, one malfunctioned within 3 months. Got it replaced and it's replacement has the same issue. Was a lengthy process for the replacement too.
This or Samsung G5?
