Should I upgrade to this monitor? (Gigabyte M32U)
LockedHey, so I currently have an Asus PB287Q monitor. 28”(which personally seems a bit small to me), 4k HD, 60Hz, HDMI 1.4, 1ms response time, NOT HDR compatible, has a 3mm crack away from the centre of the screen, has what I believe to be very inaccurate colours and terrible darks. I believe I’ve had the monitor for over 5 years.
So should I upgrade to a Gigabyte M32U? 31”, 4k HD, 144Hz, HDMI 2.1, 1ms response time, above average quality HDR 400, New condition.
Currently, I ONLY use my monitor for PS5 gaming. I’m playing Cyberpunk 2077 at the moment and Miles Morales will be next, but I am also very exited to try COD Warzone at 120FPS. I view the monitor from my bed, keeping the monitor right in front of my bed so with about a 2m maximum distance.
However, I don’t plan on buying another new monitor after this for 5-15 years. And before I buy a new monitor I plan on using this monitor (Gigabyte) to play World of Warcraft on PC, watching Full HD (possibly 4k if I get a new PC) YouTube videos, streaming anime and an occasional movie, and maybe or maybe not image, audio, and video editing, and a lot of word documentation.
So is the Gigabyte M32U worth the upgrade for me for about £725? Or would it be better for me to opt for a cheaper Full HD monitor? Thanks in advance!
