A few months ago, Asus launched its first dual-mode IPS gaming monitor, the ROG Strix XG27UCG, which is currently priced at $499.99 on Amazon. While other brands have released many gaming monitors since then, Asus was the pioneer in offering a similar 32-inch model named the ROG Strix XG32UCG.
MSI's New Entry
MSI seems to have entered the competition with its own version, but so far, it's only available in China. The MAG 321CUPDF is capable of natively displaying at 4K and 160 Hz. If you lower the resolution to 1080p, the monitor can push its refresh rate up to a staggering 320 Hz. Furthermore, the MAG 321CUPDF features 0.5 ms GtG response times and a contrast ratio of 3,000:1, thanks to its use of VA panel technology.
Impressive Specs
On top of that, this monitor provides 93% Adobe RGB color coverage, 350 nits peak brightness for SDR, and 400 nits for HDR, earning it VESA DisplayHDR 400 certification. Additionally, MSI has equipped the MAG 321CUPDF with two HDMI 2.1 ports, one DisplayPort 1.4a connection, and a USB Type-C port that supports DisplayPort Alt Mode, though it only offers 15 W Power Delivery.
Future Plans
For those interested, Asus is expected to reveal more information about the ROG Strix XG32UCG next month at CES 2025. In comparison, MSI has already priced the MAG 321CUPDF at CNY 2,999 (approximately $413) in China. Sadly, there has been no announcement regarding when it will be available internationally.
