This would be my first OLED monitor. I plan to connect it to my Legion with an RTX 5080, though I am unsure if the GPU will be powerful enough to handle 4K gaming on this specific screen. I intend to keep this monitor until it fails or experiences burn-in.
My absolute maximum budget is 45k. Given these requirements, would you recommend this monitor, or are there better alternatives I should consider?
This is a 2k monitor not 4k, 5080 mobile should handle 2k well considering you can use dlss.
If you have a friend or someone in the family that’s an alienware/dell employee you can get it their products discounted down a lot.
I would recommend against samsung as the warranty experience is bad with them plus the dp1.2 limitation. Instead if you can spend a bit more I would suggest going for the msi 271qpx like turtle said or aw 280hz like omega said. You can use code WOW5% on dell website for additional discount.
You can’t get a 4k oled under 70k. 280hz one is 2k aswell.
As for the code might be a different way to redeem, maybe the employee has to order it themselves. I’m not sure
Dell has a 27 inch 4k oled but its 85k which is not worth, and 4k at 27 inches is not really that big of a difference vs 2k anyways
Their 32 inch 4k model is curved and older so dont go for it.
If you really want 4k, the cheapest option would be MSI 321UPX at 70k.
But I would not recommend 4k for 5080 mobile as it might struggle. You will have to turn down settings in almost all newer games.
That is true. The issue is experienced by almost every customer.
The reason being is that, As the new quarter has just started on our end, the coupons we received have not yet been activated for use.
i guess i will just have to wait for 48hours at this point.
i will just go for 2k dell monitor. no point in taking 4k if my 5080m cant handle it. thanks
I would say checkout some youtube videos, there’s a lot of videos that have 10-15 game comparisons for a specific gpu. To know how much you’ll have to reduce settings on 4K and what fps you might get just to be sure.
But yea the aw2725d would be an excellent choice. I myself have a 2k 360hz aw oled, been using it for a year now really happy with it.
Yes
QD OLEDs have that anti glare coating which has a purple tint when room is well lit.
It is, for OLEDs, in text clarity. Non RGB sub pixel layout doesn’t help with text clarity at 1440p vs normal IPS monitors.
Check some videos like this. Laptop 5080 seems to be better than a desktop 5070 but not close to 5070Ti. DLSS4 is good, so can play at 4K DLSS performance (1080p rendering) in heavy games:
Yea it is better for text clarity but apart from that no real benefit to having 4k on a 27 inch display I would say
Laptop 5080 will struggle in 4k even with dlss upscaled from 1080p. You will need to fine tune settings a lot, with 2k it will be a lot more plug and play and most games will work on max or almost max settings. I say this because I had a 4k display prior, odyssey neo g7. I had to reduce settings in a lot of new games.
Now ofc there’s framegen but it needs a good base framerate to be effective
For 32 inch, getting a 4k monitor would be better. 2k on 32 I would not recommend, the text clarity thing will get worse and ppi is a lot lower. Also I dont think there’s a 32 inch 2k monitor
For cheapest 32 4k oled monitor msi 321up would be it
Cheapest meaning price, the quality is good. Its cheap because its a 165hz panel, if you can spend more you can get 240hz one from msi, asus, aorus, samsung etc.
Unfortunately there’s no other mini led monitors available here. Sony, xiaomi and some others make great mini led monitors but they aren’t available in India
I was using 7900GRE on my desktop earlier, sure I was able to game at 1440p almost maxed out w/o RT, but there were games where I was able to push 4K as well. 16GB VRAM helped out but FSR 3 was not good enough, so I preferred using native 1440p or 1600p on my 4K OLED TV.
In terms of performance, 4K balanced is slightly better than native 1440p & 4K performance will perform even better. With new improvements in DLSS 4.5, performance & ultra performance modes have got image quality improvements.
