The MSI MPG 321URX is the cheapest way to get a 4K OLED gaming monitor right now. Going into this review, I thought that would mean some clear compromises to image quality, features, and support. It became obvious that MSI sacrifices very little with this monitor after setting it up, however.

I was waiting for this screen or the Asus (or Gigabyte, LG, or Samsung) to become available but they still aren't unless you get super lucky. So finally, I just went with the Alienware and I couldn't be happier. It's absolutely incredible and I love the curve! Absolutely zero regrets. Just get the Alienware instead of waiting for one of these flat screens that isn't actually in stock. Dell deserve the credit and the business for actually producing enough of the screen to keep up with demand.

And add the fact that no matter how much they talk about burn-in protection and warranty, in the end you might not see any burn-in before 3 years but it will happen if you use it like an ordinary monitor with much static on the picture. So therefor I am not comfortable of using one for my usage that is 8+ hours of work + gaming. I also can't live without 2 screens, how will it feel having 1 OLED + 1 IPS side-by-side? Or should I go for 2 OLED's when 1 will be used for only web browsing and youtube? Nah I think I wait :P

I would definitely consider this and save money. Do you really need BFI for PC gaming? Just use VRR. As far as I know you can't use BFI at the same time with VRR or am I wrong? And DP 2.1 sure that is nice. But wholly not needed since the monitor is limited to 240Hz and more than enough for me. Using DSC to achieve the 240Hz is not noticeable anyway.

yeah I hear ya, but now days they need to innovate more, there's been 4k monitors for some time now. At least the new LG has dual resolution/refresh mode, quality speakers in the screen etc... More need to work on improving the speaker quality and systems, add more USB - Type C or multiple USB 4 ports to them, KVM Switches, New Display Port Standard, 2.5GIG Ethernet connections...so much more could be done for the money being asked.
