Nice find OP ! This is very tempting as its a QD OLED panel, fairly new monitor that just released in September, and supposedly has very decent integrated speakers. Best price on BestBuy to date has been 899, so this price is a good chunk lower. Also I love the sleek white back design and might be one of the few 32inch QD OLED panels that can rotate into portrait mode..
Only concerns I've been reading are supposedly low HDR brightness at 10% window, some nagging firmware update issues, and how reputable is this Newegg seller ?
While it has Display port 2.1, it's only UHBR10 (40Gbps). So this monitor will require dsc like display port 1.4 monitors to run 4k 240hz. Kinda defeats the point of getting a DP 2.1 monitor.
I love mine and at this price it's an awesome deal. SDR brightness is great. Build in speakers are loud and I end up watching my favorite shows and movies on my computer more often now. Also the power supply is a monster unit. Probably 4 times larger than any monitor I've had before lol

how does this monitor compare to the MSI MPG 321URX QD-OLED

Use HDMI for full 4K 240Hz. I switched from DP to HDMI on my ASUS QD-OLED 240Hz 4K and it not only got brighter but I have far fewer display issues. Just make sure to get an HDMI cable that says it does 4K@240Hz, because some, even labeled 8K don't do 4K @ 240Hz.

This is super valuable input ! What did you think of the HDR brightness and overall highlights ? I also read from one review that the colors are somewhat undersaturated out of the box, need HDR calibration in Windows before the colors looked vivid. Did you observe that ? How do you they compare to other OLED's you used ?
FYI this seems to be available at Amazon for the same price and on eBay for $700. I think it's the same seller (at least is in the same town). Seller has bad reviews on Amazon but solid reviews on eBay.
this monitor has a known issue where firmware cannot be installed. This monitor firmware is very bad for audiophiles as it introduces distortions and does not handle signal handshakes well for powerful high end systems. This monitor is on sale for a reason and is because the firmware is bad. Don't buy thinking it's a cheaper ASUS or LG, no I'd gladly buy one of those for more money than the headache of cleaning up my audiophile chain.

Can you explain the audio part a bit more does it affect audio directly from the PC or only if using the audio port on the monitor?

the G5 OLED LG is going to be around 4k nits
I just purchased this, and it's arriving next week. I'd love if someone could compare these 2 monitors
