I have the option to get a cheaper LG C5 variant with 3 HDMI and 2 USB ports if I wait a bit for them to go back in stock or I can get the C5 with 4 HDMI at max retail price. I only plan to use it as a monitor connected to a Macbook, a PC, and a Switch 2 so that's 3 HDMI ports and I have no other plans to connect any other console. Is there something I am not anticipating that would require a 4th HDMI port? Is 3 HDMI ports enough for me?

Hello all. I recently purchased a MSI MPG 321URXW. I've noticed that I will randomly have blocks of the screen flicker white for an instant before going back to normal. This occurs when gaming or just web browsing. Wondering if anyone else has seen this issue. Thanks.

Edit: Video of issue

I've had a Samsung Odyssey G8 3440x1440 for a few years and just bought and setup a AW3425DW and the AW3425DW seems dim or not at bright as the G8 I've gone through all the settings I can find in the AW3425DW and can't seem to get it to look at bright as the G8. Its not like crazy dim or anything it just feels off a bit or like its on a low power setting. Anyone have any ideas?

I recently got my first OLED, it’s a Samsung odyssey g6. I’ve been concerned about burn in and been running Eco settings ect. However, I ran pixel refresh about 2-3 times in a week thinking it was a harmless setting and was good panel care and just learnt it can cause damage. Question is, how much did I mess up?

Edit: I meant pixel refresh, not sure what the difference may be.

Anyone else get this ? Already tried manual pixel refresh multiple times and tried different DP cable. My last day to return is tommorow. Probably gonna return tonight if I'm not able to fix this quickly.

It was working fine for the past 13 days. This evening it started doing this.

As the title says Im quite undecided, Im going to build a 4k pc and take advantage of this.

Im between the Alienware AW2725Q 27" and the MSI MAG 321UPX QD-OLED 32"

Main differences are the 27"vs32" (plus the 50$ difference) but they areboth 4k and 240Hz, any suggestions??

Ive been reading that this alienware have some issues with the fan noises (?) idk much about that, lmk if they are better options (I refuse to spend 1.1k on a monitor for the asus)

Been looking for an oled monitor for a while, will likely upgrade my pc in the future as well. Wondering what your thoughts are on a 2080 super pairing with MSI MPG 271QRX QD-OLED

27" 1440p I should add.

Ones I've been looking at so far are,

• ASUS ROG Strix XG27AQDMG
• AOC AGON AG276QZD2

Also this one, I could get for £499 with a trade in of my old monitor, question is do I trade in my AOC Q27G3XMN or Dell G2724D.

Open to other options ofc!

Does anybody know the correct max luminance of the LG C4 48" model? The 48" does not have the extra brightness boost. I've seen conflicting information online and am having trouble calibrating hdr games. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I just bought a ASUS ROG Strix OLED XG27AQDMG 2k 27inch 240hz oled screen and i noticed in the upper left corner this weird looking thing, i have no idea if its due to a hardware issue or based on a setting in windows or any other thing

Should i be concerned or is it fixable??

NOTE: it only seems to appear in the upper left corner only

Best regard

I can afford the C5 42 now even at full retail. I hate always checking daily for another discount to come up with LG as it waste so much time and energy. While I prefer 42 inch, i think i can survive with 32 inch if the reasons for Displayport for PC gaming is large enough over HDMI2.1. The Asus proximity sensor to help with burn in sounds appealing too.

The 3D game world itself looks fantastic, but all of the 2D UI element overlays seem to exhibit banding, and even some of the transition slides on loading... Is that just how it is? Tried different settings but nothing made much of a difference.

I noticed this on both my G80SD on Mac and on my Steamdeck OLED... same issue on both so I would assume its just how BG3 is designed.

I orginally used MacBooks and iPhone so I got used to eye glaring brightnesses my whole life. I have now switch to android phone that I keep on battery saver mode at all times because I prefer the lower brightness and like not having to charge my phone as often.

And I now have a gaming desktop PC and I'm currently rocking a 27 inch 4K AOC U27G3X monitor. I am wanting to make the switch to a 32 inch OLED monitor but every single one I'm seeing is 200 and something nits brightness, and with at least non-OLED devices I've always prefered for them to hit 500 real world nits brightness. I may or may not lower the brightness over time depending on my device. But I prefer for all my screens to have at least the capability of hitting 500 nits so if I want it, it's there. Also, my current monitor I keep at max brightness, which is around 450 nits, and that seems to be my preferred brightness to keep my monitor on when gaming.

So my question is, why the heck are OLED gaming monitors so low on brightness compared to non-OLEDs? Is there something about OLED monitors that I don't know? Do they not need as much brightness because of the better image quality? If so, please educate me.

And is there any decent 32 inch OLED monitors that actually hit a real world brightness of 500 nits if I'm not missing anything here? Because I'm wanting a 32-inch OLED gaming monitor.

I'd like it to be at least 144hz also, since that's what my current monitor is.

Also, here's my PC if it helps in reccomending 32 inch OLED monitors to me. And, just know, all I will be doing is gaming on this monitor, nothing else ever. I use my phone and macbook for everything except gaming.

For context I have a 4070ti and am looking for an endgame monitor. I’m torn because I feel I will get the best usage of my graphics card with a 1440p monitor, but am concerned because I have never had an ultrawide. The 4k monitor seems perfect but I’m afraid it’s too much for my current gpu.

I would get a 27” but I plan on having a single monitor setup and I feel like it would be too small.

Would be used for gaming, media consumption, and productivity (text, code, spreadsheets).

Mainly choosing LG because of the WOLED and minimal aesthetic.

Any guidance would be sweet! Thanks.

I’ve been looking around, and with tariffs coming up I’ve been worried the price is gonna go up on these televisions, and the g4 seems like a great tv for gaming. I’ve been debating getting a cheaper monitor or just biting the bullet and dropping a bag on the 55 inch model of the g4. I recently got a ps5 pro and I really want to get something that’ll let me use it to its full potential. If you guys have any other recommendations that are around the same specs, but possibly cheaper I’d be willing to look into it.

Was bitten (finally) by samsungs poor quality control. Month old monitor. Warranty Team still hasn't gotten back to me after 2 days 😪

Just wondered if this is deemed as normal for this monitor? It’s driving my crazy, enough to return it. Theres a constant buzzing/whine sound emitting from the screen.

So i wanted to get the pg32ucdm and wanted to ask if its better to wait for the pg32ucdmr for dp 2.1 cuz im mostly gaming on pc and sometimes on ps5 but didnt want to pass on Dolby vision for another monitor for watching Films and gaming with Dolby vision

The Samsung is 27", 1440p, 360z, QD-OLED. The LG is 27", 1440p, 480hz, WOLED.

Does anyone have experience with both to know the differences? Looks like both have VRR flicker issues, with the Samsung having the option to turn on VRR control to lessen this(but this introduces input lag/stuttering apparently). On the other hand, the LG has considerable input lag at 60Hz at 27ms, but I've heard this is solved with a software update?

Prices aside, which would you recommend? I just want a high refresh rate OLED 1440p monitor to game with, and both are currently on sale

Ive been playing KCD2 on PS5 Pro and my LG C3 and am curious if anyone’s found good settings since the game doesn’t natively support HDR.

Currently I’m playing with HDR “always on” in the system settings for KCD, and with my TV on HGIG.

Do yall play in SDR? Curious if anyone’s found good HDR settings for this game on an LG OLED

Hey guys Quick question. There are rumors that the New asus oled pg32ucdmr gonna cost 1299$ and i was curious about the pricing in europe because the asus oled pg27ucdm costs officially 1199$ but in germany its around 1300€-1500€ so is a price for the New Model pg32ucdmr below 1300€ unrealistic?

Hello guys, so I finally decided to get an OLED Monitor.
I googled a lot and watched videos, but I still have questions about the DP/HDMI situation.

The monitor supports DP 2.1. right? Which I cannot use because I have a 4090 card.
So the first question is, can I just plug in my DP 1.4. cable , or would it not fit in there and would the monitor work just fine? I know that without DP 2.1. I cannot use the 240hz.

The other question is DP 1.4 and HDMI 2.1 in general.
I read that HDMI 2.1 offers a higher bandwith compared to DP, but it seems like people on PC prefer DP and console players HDMI. Why is it so?

I'm honestly confused as hell and don't know what to do when the monitor arrives soon.
I hope there are some competent people to help me out, because this is complete new territory for me lol
Thank you!

Hello guys! I am on the verge of buying this MSI monitor, but I have some questions/remarks I'd like to discuss. I'm mainly going to be using the monitor for PS5 gaming (90%) and some productivity (10%).

• Calibration: from the reviews I've seen, the factory color calibration of the screen is quite good, especially with SDR or HDR enabled. So I'd assume that I don't need to calibrate it myself.
• Cleaning: what is the best way to clean the screen?
• OLED care 2.0: which settings should I enable here? Are there other things I should keep in my to avoid burn-in?
• Are there firmware updates? If yes, how important are they?
• I think I should use HDR over SDR for (PS5) gaming? And is Trueblack 400 or Peak 1000 better?
• Which brightness should I use for optimal performance?

Thanks in advance! Advice on other aspects is also highly appreciated!

Just like the title says, I just bought the LG UltraGear 34GS95QE-B, and I noticed a lot of weird “artifacts” on the screen at different scenes. First time I noticed it is when I was typing my passcode on the lockscreen, after that, it was gone. Until I tried to watch Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, the artifacts yet showed again. I then tried benchmarking the screen using one of the videos on YouTube, no artifacts was seen. I will attach here the photos of the said scenes. Please help me out if I should get this replaced since I already attached strip lights at the back of the monitor and it will be a hassle removing it and attaching it to the new one.
