GIGABYTE is bringing four fresh OLED gaming monitors to CES 2026, and the headline is not just “OLED looks pretty” (it does), but how the company is trying to make OLED behave better across real-world use. The new lineup leans on smarter picture tuning for both HDR and SDR, plus familiar Tactical tools that let you tweak competitive settings without digging through menus mid-match.
The shared idea is simple: OLED is amazing until it gets weird. Brightness can dip in HDR modes, SDR can look inconsistent between apps, and motion clarity settings often feel like a trade. GIGABYTE answers with HyperNits (to push HDR brightness without nuking highlights) and an AI Picture Mode that automatically shifts profiles based on what you are doing, from productivity to movies to FPS.
What’s new across the whole OLED lineup
The most interesting “across all models” upgrade is the tuning layer. HyperNits uses a curve reshaping approach to lift perceived brightness in HDR, with two intensity levels so you can choose a stronger boost or a more subtle lift depending on room lighting. For day-to-day content, AI Picture Mode attempts to pick the best preset dynamically, including contrast and gamma tweaks, plus an AI Black Equalizer option for shooters where visibility matters.
On the gaming utility side, GIGABYTE keeps its Tactical Switch 2.0 and Ultra Clear features in the spotlight. Tactical Switch 2.0 is basically a quick-change macro for resolution and aspect ratio (yes, people still play 4:3 or 5:4 competitively), while Ultra Clear is positioned to reduce motion blur in fast content. It’s the kind of feature set that sounds niche until you watch someone sweat ranked matches for three hours straight.
MO34WQC36: Ultrawide speed with sharper text
The MO34WQC36 is the “go big and go fast” pick: a 34-inch ultrawide QD-OLED with 3440 x 1440 resolution and a 360Hz refresh rate. That combination targets players who want maximum motion clarity without leaving the immersive ultrawide life.
Its standout differentiator is the new V-stripe sub-pixel structure, aimed at improving text clarity versus earlier QD-OLED layouts that could look frilly around fonts. If you split time between gaming and desktop work (Discord, docs, timelines, your thousand browser tabs), this matters more than marketing wants to admit.
It also gets the latest ObsidianShield film for deeper perceived blacks and improved scratch resistance, plus DisplayHDR True Black 500 support. In short: this is the esports-leaning ultrawide that tries to be less annoying as a daily monitor.
MO32U24: 4K QD-OLED for detail addicts
The MO32U24 goes the other direction: fewer “ultrawide vibes,” more “everything is razor sharp.” It is a 31.5-inch 4K QD-OLED (3840 x 2160) built for players who care about fine detail, clean UI edges, and high-end single-player visuals, while still keeping a high refresh (240Hz) and fast response time.
This model also uses the ObsidianShield film and carries DisplayHDR True Black 500. The practical benefit is that it is trying to keep blacks looking black even with room light and reflections fighting you. If you want a “one monitor” setup that can handle gaming, content creation, and general productivity without compromise, this is the most balanced option on paper.
MO27Q28GR vs MO27Q2A ICE: Two very different 27-inch plays
These two 27-inch models are where the lineup gets spicy. The MO27Q28GR uses 4th-gen WOLED with a RealBlack Glossy finish and a 280Hz refresh rate. It is positioned for people who want punchy blacks in brighter rooms and that glossy look, but with a panel tech route different from QD-OLED.
Meanwhile, the MO27Q2A ICE is a 27-inch QD-OLED at 280Hz, and its signature move is not just performance, but the new white finish. If you are building a clean white setup and hate that everything gaming-related looks like a spaceship cockpit, this one exists specifically to match your aesthetic without downgrading the core OLED experience.
Both keep the tactical feature set, both aim at high-FPS gamers, and both sit in the “sweet spot” size for competitive play. The real decision is whether you want WOLED with glossy RealBlack behavior, or QD-OLED in a white chassis that blends into modern setups.
Conclusion: Which one fits your setup
GIGABYTE is clearly treating OLED like a system to be tuned, not just a panel to be shown off. If you want maximum speed plus improved readability, the MO34WQC36 is the ultrawide hammer. If you want sharper detail and a do-it-all flagship feel, the MO32U24 is the 4K pick. For 27-inch buyers, the MO27Q28GR is the WOLED glossy option tuned for strong blacks, while the MO27Q2A ICE is the QD-OLED alternative that finally acknowledges some people do not want a black monitor in a white build.
Pricing was not detailed in the announcement, but GIGABYTE is showcasing the lineup at CES 2026 (including its booth presence), so expect regional availability details and retail timing to follow shortly after the show. Also, humans will absolutely argue online about which sub-pixel layout is “more usable” for spreadsheets, as if that is a normal hobby.
