Those OLED Monitors are still so fucking overpriced.

I'm happy I picked up LG C2 42". Greatest purchase ever. There is no hassle setting anything up to honest. It's very plug and play as your average monitor.


For real, just get a LG C(whatever) and enjoy your OLED Monitor that doesn't cost $1000

but might be a bit big given they start at 42"

But otherwise, it's better than any real "monitor" I've ever had, VRR/gsync support, latency, everything

What would you guys choose from out of these?

https://www.dell.com/en-au/shop/alienware-27-360hz-qd-oled-gaming-monitor-aw2725df/apd/210-blqd/monitors-monitor-accessories

The Alienware is $200 cheaper, but it feels kind of dirty buying anything from Dell

Are you going to hit/keep 360 fps? If not dont see the point of that refresh rate personally.

With a 4080 and 7800X3D I can't even hit my monitors 165 in some games, I turned my monitor down to 144(what I can get in most games). 300+ FPS monitors, to me, feel like those 10,000 DPI mice:Sure bigger number = moar number. But are you actually using that much?

It's the OLED factor I'm after, I don't target more than ~120FPS

Every other OLED screen is ~$2000 here, those seem to be the cheapest at 27" / 1440p

Unfortunately that's crazy big for where I intend to have it

It sounds like the Alienware might be the better path of the two

Bah, that sucks Sad

Im using 1x49" and 1x32" on my setup atm. Love it, but the 32" could probably have been better (an old non-curved widescreen LG..its okayish, but nothing more. Also, its above the 49" which is curved - i really should get another 49" or atleast a smaller curved to replace the 34" with.


shitloads of new stuff in my pc. Cant keep track of it all.

Ah OK might be a location thing then. Surprised no one is filling the demand gap for OLED that is cheaper with lower HZ there.

https://www.techpowerup.com/319515/msi-confirms-lack-of-firmware-updates-for-incoming-mag-qd-oled-monitors

Samsung is big offender too with lack of updates...

LG C2 has gotten a lot of updates since I bought it last year.

My BenQ XL2420T from 2013 developed a weird light by the center of the screen (Not sure if it can be fixed one way or another)

Hard to see a bit... https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GIm9YroWcAADZ8b?format=jpg&name=4096x4096

While i can live with it, when drawing it can be a bother

I was thinking it's time to upgrade the monitor to something newer and better, even if minimal. However the whole "Pick your poison" is still there

A decade ago, here i think, was recommended to get the 1st line's monitor and pretty happy, specially after some calibration to keep good colours without killing my eyes from saturation/contrast/whatever

Now i wanted to ask what'd be worth for my case scenario:

-New games with story (ALAN WAKE 2, RESIDENT EVIL, etc)
-Fast paced games like DOOM ETERNAL and maybe some competitive games
-Basic Adobe Photoshop and other Adobe products' colouring, nothing professional. Been doing, again, fine with my actual monitor

I'm aware that:

-TN's angles sucks (Even tho i look straight all the time) and colours aren't the best but the Hz matters etc
-IPS colours are great, minus some blacks, but the backlight bleed lottery and IPS glow kills the experience in dark rooms with dark games (Like, distracting)
-No way with VA due to smearing and NO WAY with OLED due to burn-in + price.

My thoughts would be another TN to begin with, with BenQ's XL2411K for 240€ or maybe XL2540K for 300€, although the latter's said to have coil whine at the monitor and that's a huge no (Unless BenQ fixed it and says wich manufacturing date should appear at the box)... Wich's a first time to hear about coil whine ON A MONITOR

I know many people would say "TN shouldn't be bought in 2024 anymore" yet there they are...But atleast some advice?

Just buy OLED, modern OLED screens are covered by warranty if there is this myth called "burn in" happening, i havent seen yet anything on my 3 OLED panels and they have been on very high usage.

Does anyone have an OLED and use it for productivity? Want one for gaming but would have to WFH on it about 50 hours a week on spreadsheets, so I'm worried about burn in.

I've been using mine for office work for almost 2 years now, no sign of any burn in. And the tv runs the pixel refresh by itself now and then, takes 5 minutes.

TV and Monitors has exact same panels and software DV2. But to answer nik_nak question, you are not going to get burn in if you keep on the basic OLED care options, this is just some retarded internet myth, i have years of experience from 3 OLED panels (C1, C2, Samsung G8, and they have been used every day on gaming, work, TV etc... and ZERO burn in. I dont run them 100% brightness tho, that is just retarded, eyes will melt anyway.

Thanks everyone

Won't be using it for a TV, 80% work and 20% gaming.
Weighing up a 5080 (depending on ridiculous price or not) next year so want to try and snag a 4K OLED in Black Friday if I can


Currently 3080 FE and Dell S2721DGF @ 1440 so should see a good improvement

So, guise, what's the consensus here about WOLED vs QD-OLED?

Just a quick google

WOLED displays can’t match the brightness or color accuracy of the best QD-OLED and MLA displays. So while the WOLED displays are great, there are some better options in terms of picture quality.

I have WOLED and QD-OLED, QD-OLED can be little bit brighter, but I never use these at their full blast, QD-OLED has slightly punchier colors aswell, other than that can't see much difference. Only thing what can be annoying is that QD-OLED screen blacks does not look pitch black if you have some lightning in the room since they don't have polarizing filter, but its hardly a issue for me at least. Not sure how this is improved in newer 3rd gen models, to me every OLED looks better than any other display technology.

I know what they are and what they do, I just wanted to hear the impressions of Humpers who have had one of these monitors for some time already Wink Thanks.

Ok, thanks foir the feedback. What about text clarity between these 2 technologies?

A shame that there isn't much 24" IPS or IPS Black monitors to get out from my TN 1080p 120hz monitor (Wich has some brush trail issue on the panel..)

Sure, now 27" 1440p is a sweet spot, but most of the monitors in this vid are 4K and if ya go 1440p in a native 4K monitor things could look WORSE

The question is, what is the difference between IPS and IPS Black?...Less IPS glow/backlight bleeding?.. Because the DELL monitor at 15:10 ,even though it's awfully pixelated when dark, doesn't "seems" to have much backlight bleeding (Like... The only vid that proves it and almost noone else on reviews has the BALLS to do a black image to prove it otherwise)

My PC has a 5800X3D (NO OC!) and a GIGABYTE RTX 4070 Super , with 32GB DDR4 RAM and Windows 10

The options i've seen of interest would maybe be the:

-MSI MPG 274URDFW E16M (Because of Mini LED but 4K BUT has the 1080p dual mode, wich might mean the screen would get reduced to fit 1080p without losing pixel density and be able to play games without losing performance, while 4K mode would be mostly used for art and browsing, etc?...)

-HP OMEN 27qs G2 (2K and 280hz could be a sweet spot)

-DELL UltraSharp U2725QE (4K tho but maybe 120hz doesn't requires much PC potential?)

Thoughts?
