I just got this monitor but sadly my unit came with fw 0.10 so it's not compatible with either of the profiles you posted. Hopefully MSI releases the 0.18 fw for everyone soon
Good, thank you very much for the settings, one question, I have downloaded the .icc profile from your web page, but I have activated it and I don't notice absolutely no change, however with others I do notice it, is it normal? I mean the changes are almost imperceptible?
That's "normal" as the settings change made to the OSD get the screen to a position where it is as close to the correct gamma, white point and colour temp as possible. in the case of this screen it can get very close already through those changes. The calibration and creation of the profile does a couple of things. firstly it will make further (minor) corrections to the gamma and colour accuracy, but because it was so close before these won't be immediately obvious to the naked eye. It's not like activating the profile will make sudden massive, obvious changes - it actually ideally should never do that for any screen, as the screen should ideally be as close as possible before the profile has to make corrections. secondly it will carry out colour space corrections to map the native gamut (assuming you've left the screen in the native wide gamut mode?) back to sRGB for use in colour aware applications. one way to potentially see this in action is to create a simple red/green/blue image in paint. save it, open it in windows photo app (the default) and you should see those colours alter a little, especially red, when you enable and disable the profile. that's the profile carrying out the sRGB emulation within that app. i just tried that on my screen and saw the changes it was making. to see that in action you'd prob need a good way to be able to enable/disable the profile quickly and easily. anyway, rest assured it's carrying out the further corrections on top of the monitor recommended settings :)
i wish there was a guide for the AW3423DWF i got told that i should remove the icc profile and put srgb creature mode instead of DCI-P3 but imo it looks really dull and bad i dont get why the built in icc was calibrated for dci-p3 mode when most content is srgb
Sorry this video actually shouldn’t have appeared yet. The intention was to publish it after the review which is being finished at the moment. This topic will be covered in the review, but yes those features CAN be used 😀
Yes, but it's available as early access for our Patreon supporters for a few days first. You can get access, and join to help support our site, here: tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/msi-mpg-341cqpx-qd-oled
I just ordered this monitor but it won’t be delivered for awhile since it’s out of stock. This video is exactly what I needed.

Should be out soon we are told. For now just follow the steps in the video manually to get to the same end result 😀
I got mine today and it came with FW 0.08. I do wish to get the 0.18 too because it has more settings too.
Looking forward to the review of this screen. I'm ready to upgrade my old monitor. Whens the review out?
Later today for our Patreon supporters as early access 😀
Thankyou for the video. Are you planning on doing a full review of this monitor?
yes, coming later today!
@@tftcentral Awesome, thanks for the reply :D
Unfortunately the multi logo detection, taskbar detection and boundary detection can't be turned on when using G-Sync (adaptive-sync) 😥
FO27Q3 waiting room
Will you do a Review an Settings Video for the LG 32GS95UE?
Yes, soon
I’m still waiting for the MPG 321URX to be back in stock. It’s hasn’t been available since before your review.
I’ve seen it a few times in the US at least m. We normally try and tweet with stock alerts
@@tftcentral it’s always listed as coming soon on MSIs web site.
Thank you, do you plan to compare it to Gigabyte AORUS MO34WQC2 OLED ?
possibly, although no current plans. Actual review of the MPG 341CQPX coming later today :)

Hello~ will you be doing a best settings guide for the MSI G274QPX? It's not exactly new but would love to see it. :)
No plans I’m afraid
@@tftcentral Aww, ok. Thanks for the reply!

What is best for my old gsming eyes ? Oled or ips or 4k , please
Any chance you can do a Best Settings for a Samsung S95D and LG C4, for PC gaming?
Sorry those aren’t screens we’ve reviewed or tested so that won’t be possible
Can this monitor use Nvidias DSR upscale with HDMI if I want to push 5120x2160? This is a deal breaker for me if I can't do this?

@tftcentral Thank you so, so much for this information. I have it preordered with amazon. Has msi mentioned a release date?
@mileskt9232 last we were told was July in USA, August for Europe
I was wondering if under the screen size setting if you can make the screen imitate a 27 inch monitor at 1440p similar to how the Asus 34 inch can?
You can on the latest firmware which should be released very soon
whats the difference between the MEG 175Hz and the new MAG 175Hz?
Same panel but some of the features are different

It’s unfortunate this monitor is incredibly overpriced in the UK.
