Yep. Using it right now with my 2080 Ti. Loving it since G-Sync worked perfectly with absolutely zero flickers
Previously using Samsung C32HG70 but it sometimes it flickers when G-Sync is enabled. Although not blaming on it entirely since the C32HG70 is actually a Freesync monitor, not a G-Sync monitor
Now using C32HG70 as my secondary monitor

I've always been a fan of 32 inch monitors. Have used five 32 inch monitors. Can never go back to smaller screen

1. AOC AG322FCX - 1080p 144Hz Freesync v1
Worst experience ever. 1st unit flickers after 3 months, got a new replacement unit, same thing happened after 2 months. Got a full refund after returning it to the distributor

2. Viewsonic VX3209-2K - 1440p 60Hz normal monitor (overclockable to 84Hz)
Work monitor. Bought 2 years ago & still working perfectly until now

3. ACER ED323QUR - 1440p 144Hz Freesync v1 (G-Sync compatible)
Quite a good experience but gave it to my brother

4. Samsung C32HG70 - 1440p 144Hz Freesync v2 (G-Sync compatible)
Great monitor while I was using dual RX 580. Now using it as my secondary monitor to display Outlook, WhatsApp, HWMonitor & MSI Afterburner while I play games & watch movies on the Z321QU

5. ACER Z321QU - 1440p 165Hz G-Sync
Bought it at the same time I bought my 2080 Ti. Best gaming monitor I've ever had

Good one, i'm also looking for 32in 2K at least 144hz & Gsync supported monitor, too sad till now isn't any 32in IPS panel in the market, mostly are VA, i used to IPS monitor, i read many say VA tends to have color washed out issue and this is a bit worried me. Based on your experience have you discovered this? Currently there are few options in my list: Asus 32 XG32VQR, Asus Tuf VG32VQ, LG 32GK850G, Acer Z321Qu, MSI MAG321CQR

If you're using Nvidia graphic card, get a real G-Sync monitor instead of G-Sync compatible monitors

I'm still waiting for a 32 Inch G-Sync Ultimate monitor. Don't really enjoy ultra wide to be honest, still prefer 16:9

Z321QU is Predator Z1. There are 4 Predator Z1 models. All of them is G-Sync, not FreeSync

This is due to the fact that the monitor uses a similar panel from Samsung CHG70 icon_idea.gif

Nope, happy with my Z321QU
The rest of the monitors I only used for a few months because I wasn't really satisfied with them
Z321QU ticked all the right boxes for me

I'm not interested with 4K nor ultrawide so I'm gonna stay with Z321QU for quite some time

Got 3 monitors including the new one. But I think will stick with 2 only, not sure yet.

Also noticed like got 1 stuck pixel rip. White background, it looks like a red cross, green background it looks like maroon or black. But I don't think it's dead pixel? Since other colors doesn't make the pixel black or produce any other color than red/maroon

I'm currently looking for a display upgrade since I've been sticking with 1080p for so long, it's time for an upgrade.
I have like a wide price range there but i'm looking for options and opinions on what's best to get atm.
Have yet to decide on how much I should spend, but i'm willing to spend up to 5k for a good display.

Current PC spec: 7800X, Asus X299-E Gaming, 1080ti, 32gb ram
Budget: RM1.5k - 5k
Games: I play all kinda of games. All rounder.
Currently I think I'd prefer: 27'' or 32'', 2K, 144hz, IPS/VA panels.

I've narrowed down to a few choice but if you have others I don't mind.

Budget route:              Acer Nitro VG271UP (RM1.4k)
2K route:                    ROG XG32VQ (RM2.1k), Asus ROG PG279QZ (RM ?? Can't find any seller who sell this one yet with G-Sync)
4K Ultrawide route:      Alienware AW3418DW (RM4K), LG 34GK950F (RM5.5k), Samsung CHG90 (RM4.6k)
Makan Maggi route:      Asus ROG PG27UQ(RM11k) Yeah not buying this actually lol.

Let me know if you have better suggestions, or I could narrow down my list as well. I tried 4k last time, while I think it's gorgeous for watching videos, and gaming(with some lower settings since current hardware is still shit)...Windows scaling I found is quite an issue still, and the worse thing about 4k, has to be browsing, everything looks so bad, but I was testing it on some 4k 60inch display tho lol. Leaning more towards 2K resolution, and 144hz. Also any of you guys could recommend some colour calibrator guy if there is a one. Also freesync with nvidia cards good meh now, since that works now?

Thats huge budget. With good GPU, go for good 4K - 55 / 65 inch TV.
