What do you do on your computer? I also have 48" oled but I am not sure if its too big for programming.
I have a Mac Mini hooked up to it for (IT Security) work and a gaming PC which is what i use it mostly for. It's alot easier than having a dual monitor setup.

Got the Gigabyte MO27Q2 last week, one of the cheapest 27 inch on the market currently.

No complaints, 1440p 240hz, HDMI 2.1 x2, Glossy.

Only downside is HDR 400 but it is what it is.

I've never heard this OLED is bad for 30 fps games outside of this forum. 30 fps will be just as shitty on any display tech.
It's not, 30 fps motion on CRTs looks better than any sample and hold tech of modern displays.

RTINGS explains why it's worse on modern TVs(faster response time = more stutter on low FPS content).

Does anyone have the LG 32GS95UE OLED monitor? I can't for the life of me find good calibration settings for SDR/HDR (including Win 11 Calibration tool). I've watched so many Youtube videos, read reddit posts, etc. and it bums me out lol. Can someone here please help me find good settings for both modes please? Thanks in advance

"Outside of this forum" ?
Man, the OLED judder is a very well known and catalogued issue with these TVs due to their near instant response time.

For me it's so bad that had I witnessed it beforehand I would have opted for a MiniLED, I dislike 30fps but it's kind of tolerable at the same time (always depending on the game) - not so much on an OLED though since everything 30fps becomes judder city as soon as you start moving the camera around.

It's so bad that it made stop revisiting older, 30fps games - and God knows there's a lot of those on consoles...

Hey guys. Need an honest opinion as I've been out of the loop the last few years. My LG OLED is 8 years old and full of nasty burn-in. I'm thinking about replacing it in the coming weeks for a new 77+ inch TV but I'm not sure what I should buy. Should I go for the 2025 LG's (which one?) or something else? I've also been offered a few Samsung TV's: QN95D, S90D, S95D. Are those any good? I have no idea what to do. I just want a TV that makes me smile ear to ear but preferably won't suffer from burn-in. I've heard that newer OLEDs are much better in that regard but is it true?

I wouldn't bother with Samsung. Look at Sony & LG for oleds. Also check Avs forums
 
For those of you with huge TVs (65", 77", 85", etc…) did you have the TV delivered to your home or did you go to the store and bring it home yourself?

I bought an LG OLED CX fall of 2020 and I have clusters of dead pixels along the bottom and sides. Always had pixel refresher in auto and pixel shift set to on. Research says some panels were made with a bad seal allowing air to get into the organic screen causing decay.

I think I'm going to replace it with a Samsung Neo QLED, or possibly go with an LG OLED again. But I'm hesitant.
 
I am curious...

Anyone here that has had or has a Sony A95K and also has seen and used a LG G5? I really like my Sony A95K, but one thing I don't find too stellar is SDR gaming. Really noticed that today in Space Marine 2. Now of course I can change peak luminance to medium or even high, but I will likely make games way too bright in night time scenes.

Also, this is my third or even fourth year with the A95K now. Would it be worth it to trade or sell the A95K for a good price and get a G5?

Or absolutely not?
 
Do you vary your content enough and are you in a dark(ish) room? If so then OLED might be the better choice.

But if you love light cannons and high color volume, (high-end) QLEDs are the way.
This, and also, oleds still need some form of babyssitting bullshit in order to not burn in, although it's not as egregious as it was once.

Once you try true black you never go back they say!
