Gigabyte M32U
This is what matters about Gigabyte M32U.
About
An early adopter of real HDMI 2.1 in the 32" 4K space, with a dedicated physical "KVM button" for instant switching — Gigabyte never publishes an exact USB-C PD wattage, and community reports consistently describe insufficient power delivery for a Steam Deck or ROG Ally, causing slow battery drain even while the video/peripheral switch works fine.

Confirmed with
- Steam Deck
Community members confirm the KVM button and single-cable USB-C dock work with a Steam Deck, but consistently report a persistent "low wattage charging" warning since the monitor cannot fully power the device under load.
- Xbox Series X|S
Users report the M32U ships with HDMI 2.1 bandwidth disabled by default on some firmware revisions, requiring a manual toggle in the monitor's system menu before the Xbox Series X (or PS5) can negotiate 4K at 120Hz.
- PS5
The same thread documents the identical HDMI 2.1 bandwidth toggle requirement for a PS5 to unlock 4K120 on this monitor.
- Notebook (generic)
A user confirms simultaneous use of a Windows PC via DisplayPort and a MacBook Pro via Thunderbolt 4, switching both through the monitor's hardware KVM.
