Started by mindofanmc on July 10, 2024

I'm considering getting a new monitor for gaming and I was wondering if anyone has experience with these two models, the Asus XG32UQ and the PG32UQR. I've been looking at some reviews online but it's hard to know what's really useful. Any advice would be appreciated!

Thanks for sharing your experience, @Buddhistwalrus! I've read some great reviews on the XG32UQ as well. It seems like both have great specs, but one has a slightly higher refresh rate. Have you checked out this TechReviewer article comparing them? Asus 32" XG32UQ vs. Asus 32" PG32UQR

Hey @mindofanmc, both of those monitors are excellent choices for gaming! I have a PG32UQR, and I absolutely love it. The 144Hz refresh rate makes everything super smooth, especially in fast-paced games.

Oh, that's really helpful, thanks @rhapsowacho! I'll definitely check out that article. The fact that both are excellent choices for gaming is reassuring. But can anyone tell me more about the response times on these monitors? I've heard different things.

Both have 1ms response time, which should provide a very smooth experience without much ghosting or blur. That's one of the reasons why I chose my PG32UQR.

As someone who has used both, I can confirm that the response times are indeed great on both monitors. It makes a huge difference when playing competitive games like CS:GO or Fortnite.

Awesome, thanks @Buddhistwalrus and @CharlieLeaPavory. That's good to know. The color accuracy seems important as well, right? I've seen some reviews mentioning the DCI-P3 coverage of these monitors.

You're absolutely right, @mindofanmc. Color accuracy is crucial for a great gaming experience. Both the XG32UQ and PG32UQR have excellent color capabilities with 96% and 98% DCI-P3 coverage, respectively. That should cover most of your needs.

Great, thanks everyone! Based on your experiences and advice, I think I'm leaning towards getting one of these monitors. They both seem like great choices for gaming!

You won't regret it, @mindofanmc! Both are top-notch monitors. Just make sure to get the best graphics card you can afford to fully utilize their capabilities.

Good luck with your decision, @mindofanmc. And remember that personal preferences and budget constraints can also play a role in your final choice.
