Should you spend 800€ on a GPU when you're completely fine with your 300€ one?Think about it for a moment, what do you want out of it?
>>103235702I recently upgraded my monitor from a 2.5K IPS panel to a 4K IPS panel. I thought seriously about going OLED, but I don't know if the tech is there yet, and also I don't mind IPS at all, and also I could've bought three of the monitors I picked for the price of one good OLED. So maybe my next monitor will be OLED.
>>103235702>should I pay for something new when I am happy with the thing I currently havemaybe try saying it out loud next time you have a stupid question
>>103235702>Im completely fine with my ips monitorThen why ask?
>>103235986what monitor did you get?
No wait for the CES announcements in January
>>103235702OLED has higher contrast but is dimmer. It's for watching TV in dark rooms.
OP here's the thing, I did get an MSI QD-OLED monitor without "needing" it. Just because I fucking wanted it. I have a decent IPS monitor that's being used with my laptop.It's fine but I wouldn't have paid more than I paid for it (640€ or so). No way. It's the caveat monitor. I do not regret it to this point and then past that I actually might.Burn-in is the subject even your mom will talk to you about in the context of OLED. These OLED monitors are full of anti-burn in measures that can be slightly to very annoying depending on how nitpicky you are and how much you value the money you spent on these things. It can definitely put you off to have your monitor turn itself off every 16 hours or so because of a panel protecting feature. It can turn you off to see the entire screen shift ever so slightly in one direction, and seeing that it's somewhat offcenter.Besides that there's the fact it's just harder to clean depending on its surface. You can scratch glossy very, very, very easily unless you use the right type of microfiber cloth the right way. Anything but distilled water bad.There's also the autism of HDR, because it's the perfect type of monitor to use it, you'll end up compelled to use it everywhere, but you'll find Windows (and Linux moreso) is a pain in the ass to deal with and it isn't just a toggle. And like >>103236147 said, your room better be dark on average. The room where I have this monitor is, even in the middle of summer so I'm pretty safe there. Otherwise, specially with QD-OLED, you'll just have a worse experience.Only buy it if you like throwing money and you've seen what you're getting beforehand. They're still crazy good with some games and movies. In fact I would say it's the perfect type of monitor to revisit older games.
>>103236075Generally agree, with the qualifier that people often don't realize what they're missing. So I'd suggest that OP should, like, look at some nice OLED TVs at a store to see firsthand.
Unnecessary luxuries quickly become dependencies
Since I doubt a 90 class card can run it's max refresh rate anyways I say no
