Our Verdict
MSI MPG 321URX QD-OLED
Samsung Odyssey 3D G90XF S27FG900X
The MSI MPG 321URX QD-OLED and the Samsung Odyssey 3D are both 4k gaming monitors. The MSI is the better monitor for most people, as it displays deeper blacks in a dark room, has more vivid colors, and has much better motion handling. However, you may prefer the Samsung if you're a 3D enthusiast, as it offers glasses-free 3D with select games.
