Freesync Premium Pro

[MightyNerdy9]

Hey guys , i am before buying a new oled monitor 32 inch 4k , 

i dont know which one to choose , 

GIGABYTE FO32U - 165hz 

ALIENWARE AW3225QF  - 240hz 

 

the alienware is cruve so im taking more the side of gigabye but the gigabyte only supports freesync premium pro and im using nvidia gpu , i should be worried ?

Nah Nvidia supports Freesync, most of the their lower tier "Gsync compatible" monitors are merely Freesync ones that Nvidia has certified to be good. That's the case with my LG GS95QE (a 240hz OLED) and it works splendidly.

Usually depends between features. They should all support adaptive sync VRR meaning doesn't matter which card you have. I don't like curved so that's on you, I'd aim for 240Hz model too. There are more models out there, depends where you are and what you can get at good price. 

Main difference really would be type of panel QD-OLED (glossy but reflects light a bit) vs WOLED (matte doesn't reflect light, has dual-mode) so that's mainly it.

I have LG dual-mode one.

Then get the cheaper option if you don't care if it's flat or curved too.

I guess to would be best to see it in person. As it's 16:9 and not 21:9 and it's not some large TV so it's not really needed. All on you though.

Not sure you picked one up yet?  I can’t speak on the Gigabyte but the Alienware one is super nice.  I couldn’t get it to work with my Msi motherboard but worked with 2 other computers just fine.  Really love the colors from factory on the Dell brand.  If you play any competitive games you’ll notice the difference going to 240hz too.  It’s worth it.  the curve itself is way nice and probably my fav ever tried.  It is minimal but still enough to pull you into the experience more.   
 

As an alternative, check out the MSImpgurx321 - very nice screen, glossy, 240hz, more vibrant colors than dell and goes brighter too.  Also being cheaper is a bonus. GL
