55" LG 55EG9600 OLED TV
4x TITAN QUAD-SLI

Chad Reviewed My set the other day. Before Chad came and we figured out how to make 4:4:4 work text was very blurry. After it was resolved text was an order of magnitude better. To make it work you need to use HDMI 1 or 2, enable super deep color, Change the name of the input to PC, and Change the ICON to that of a PC. At least that is what worked for me.

I am driving this display with 4 Titan X GPUs in Quad SLI. So far I can run any modern game at max settings as long as SLI isn't broken in the game (Watchdogs for example) or CPU limited (Attila Total War). Game play is smooth and the visuals are beyond anything I have experienced before. Response time doesn't feel that bad. I don't have a way to do a scientific measurement but I hooked up My ASUS PQ321Q 4K IGZO monitor and cloned the display. We than ran the timer test and took pictures. In game mode thre seemed to be next to no difference between input lag on the TV vs the Monitor. We had the TV on HDMI and the Monitor on DP 1.2.

Granted I am more of a single player gamer and don't do competitive online multiplayer FPS so i am not as sensitive to input lag as Pros would be. I played a couple of hours of the Battlefield Hard-line campaign and didn't notice any issues. I also had no issues in Dying Light. Both games looked epic. Same goes for AC unity and AC Rouge, both games looked awesome on this tv.

For general PC usage this works as a great monitor. Its huge but the text is sharp enough after you get 4:4:4 working that you should be able to use it for any productivity task you want to throw at it. I sit about 4 feed back from the TV and I can read text fine with scaling disabled in windows 8.1.

Native 4K video on Utube looks epic but anything that is not running at native resolution doesn't look that good. I would recommend this TV to those who are going to power it with a very powerful PC (Dual Titan X would be the minimum recommendation). I don't know that I would purchase this as a TV for consuming today's video content. I have a Pioneer Elite Plasma in the living room and I am happy with that for now. Until the industry catches up with 4K I think I will hold off replacing my main TV.

One issue that I haven't' been able to figure out is that the display seems to enter some sort of power saving mode where brightness is greatly reduced. It comes and goes and seems to correct itself without user intervention. If anybody has a pro tip for that please share.

Special thanks to Chad for all of his help and effort to get this display properly setup.


Estimated rig value: 14000$

black levels - check
4:4:4 - check
massive e-boner - check

input lag? motion resolution/sample-and-hold blur/higher refresh rates? maximum white luminance? electricity bill? displaying non-native resolutions? pixel density of 4k@55''?

Assuming "4K" is 3840x2160:

Pixel count diagonally: √(3840² + 2160²) = 4405.81

PPI = 4405.81 / 55 = 80.11
