Why did monitor tech get so bad in the past 5 years? I wanted to treat myself and consoom a little and it's just companies selling OLED slop or overpriced IPS. MiniLED are sparse and are all chinkshit and almost as expensive as a decent OLED.>So it's either, pay $200-$300 for old inferior but functional IPS tech>$400-$500 for MiniLED and deal with haloing, IPS glow or VA smearing>$500-$1000 for OLED and deal with burn in, text fringing and flickering
>>107592604I've been using the same two alienware 27 inch 1080p IPS 240hz monitors for like 6 years now. I spent like $1000 dollars on that 49inch wrap around super ultrawide display and I ended up just returning it. All new monitor technology just feels like they are chasing a gimmick.
>>107592604need the source to that image. no, reverse image search didn't work
>>107592604Just buy a $150 180hz 1440p ips
>>107592604>Why did monitor tech get so bad in the past 5 years?what the fuck are you on aboutoled is a return to the baseline established by crtsflatscreens fucking sucked until that 5 year mark and miniled is a direct upgrade to solid backlights
I'm still using my VG248QE. There are no 24" OLED displays so I will simply stick with this until it dies.
>>107592803>Flickers >Smears>Text is blurry Okay goy
>>107592892>vrr is a meme>only oled phones smear and it's exclusively at low brightness>if you can see text fringing your fonts are too small regardless

>>107592604Just stick with standard IPS until micro LED becomes available in a few years, it's good enough for now. OLED is meme tech with literal planned obsolescence, and I will never understand why regular people shill for it so much.
>>107592762Aka Q27G3XMN.
>>107593018by the time microleds will even be available they'll still be expensive as shit while you'll be able to get durable oleds for a fraction of the pricewhy settle with a shittier monitor now? you're not going to get your time back
>>107593062>durableStill meme tech I can turn on an IPS or a TN monitor I regularly used 10+ years ago and they'll both still look as good as the day I bought them. An OLED will inevitably be burnt out to some degree by the 10 year mark, regardless of how many babying settings they put into them now.
>>107593111so? what's the point of saving on a monitor? your eyes can only deteriorate and you're valuing saving what accumulates to basically nothing over your entire life over having a better experience for years until microleds are a thing and they'll STILL be expensive as fuck with how much headstart oled has
>>107593023If you can afford it sure
>>107592604>Overpriced IPSIf you buy cheap ips then you will get dogshit monitor. That is the reason why people hate on IPS displays.Just buy a normal one instead of chink special IPS with 50% srgb color accuracy and IPS glow bigger than the screen itself.Just buy a fucking acer faggot.avoid dell, alienware and samsung.DO NOT buy VA or TN. I REPEAT: DO NOT BUY THIS GARBAGE.
>>107593018MicroLED is cool and all, but honestly I don't see a point in buying anything other than a good IPS LED for gaming. OLED is basically only for movies.
>>107593512you got that reversedoled for vidya, any led or miniled ips for everything else where motion clarity doesn't matter
>>107592604I hate that there is no high dpi monitor options that make sense for work and gaming. 5K is only 60hz, no OLED options. We have great panels on phones, laptops, but nothing good on desktop side.
>>107592738>27 inch 1080pretard
>>107592931>vrr is a memebiggest cope ever
>>107593657stop playing at "cinematic" framerates consolecuck120 should be your floor
It's literally TN, VA and IPS all over again. IPS is now TN. Reliable, but cheap and seen as deprecated.Mini-LED is VA. That weird middle child that isn't quite great but good.OLED is IPS. The new "standard" but has issues
>>107593680>you don't need vrr at high frame ratessure, enjoy your shitty frame pacing and input lag then.
>>107593700miniled is literally va/ips with better backlight
>>107592604I can tell you haven't been fucking with PCs very long or have been under a rock.Monitor market is fantastic right now>OLEDs set a price ceiling for high end monitors (~$1200 as opposed to ~$2500)>china has a stranglehold on LCD production pushing LCD prices down.>high refresh is everywhere>4k is dirt cheap if you want itI remember paying $180 for a 27" 1080p 60Hz VA monitor quite a few years agoNow you can get a 27" IPS panel that is 1440p and 180hz for $160.How monitors are considered expensive l have no clue. It's literally never been better.
>>107593735>Now you can get a 27" IPS panel that is 1440p and 180hz for $160.>Same resolution as on imac from 2011 with worse colors
>>107593760You'll never be satisfied unless it's free right?
>>107593706lolmade me try it againmemealso there's no flicker even when i set it down to 10 fpsget owned idiot
>>107593784Actually I don't really care about cost. I want 4k 24" or 5k 27" OLED. It seems that resolution stopped improving around 2017.
>>107593712hes not being literal
>>107593998the classifications were still wrong to begin withTN was the gamer option and now ANUS came out with an OLED that does 720hz at 720p, perfect for all the csgo niggers that get sponsored by zowieVA is entry level shit for office and media uses and it still will be in that position but now with a better backlightIPS continues to be the best all rounder and it benefits the most from unfucking the backlight as the bleed issues were legendary
>>107592604miniled will never be a thing. stop wishing for it.
>>107594044they'll eventually funnel down to consumer level but they'll be vastly more expensive than oled which by that point will be 1000x folded nippon steel that will last a decade for 1/10th of the price
>>107593735Yeah some people are silly. In 2016 you had to spend $700+ for a 27" 1440p 165hz monitor, now even after 9 years of inflation you can get that for under $200. I got 4K 144hz last year for $500 and it's lower now or comes with dual modes.
desu all monitors are so good now you can just pick up a $10 used monitor and be fine
>>107592604>in the past 5 years?>in the past 5 years?>in the past 5 years?>in the past 5 years?>in the past 5 years?They never recovered from the peak aperture grille tech of the late 90s
REMINDEROLEDs have 10x worse motion clarity than CRTs due to sample&hold motion blur
>>107594197motion clarity is limited by the framerate more than monitor tech
>>107594205Only on sample&hold displays. CRTs, regradless of refresh rate, look equal to a 4000hz OLED in linear motion. A CRT will always be perfectly clear regardless of refresh rate.
>>107594217you don't see in screenshots dumbass
>>107594222Precisely! That's why modern OLEDs are still so blurry. Your eye, when in motion tracking objects, will see the frame blurred since it's stationary for eg 16ms @ 60hz.A cathode ray tube on the other hand, due it's incredibly short frame persistence, effectively acts as a shutter for your eyes, letting you see the frame realistically clear, avoiding the whole blur issue. It works so well it can create unrealistically clear phantom arrays of things in some circumstances.
>>107594247i don't care, i have a 500hz oled and 120fps is the bare minimum for meif i wanted to i could enable crtroon shaders
>>107594260Too bad all 2D games are 60hz. You'll never see how clear and good they truly can look.
>>107594247I’m sure you’ve used OLEDs and been so bothered by the motion clarity you swore them off. And that you’re not just jobless and coping by shitting on something you’ve never had
>>107594274Yes I own a 120hz OLED and the motion is indeed pathetic compared to a CRT, barely any better than on any LCD gaming monitor.
>>107593610Are you fucking high or something?>Motion clarityBuy a high refresh rate monitor.When I compare my phone oled screen to my pc IPS monitor, it looks the same in every way.Try using a good IPS monitor instead of shitting on technology because your dollar store TN monitor was dogshit.Applefags do the same shit when telling everyone how shitty android is.
>>107594315>>107593610>>107594274Consider this map, on a 60hz display.https://testufo.com/photo#photo=toronto-map.png&pps=480&stuttersize=0On an IPS, you might be able to read the text at like 360px/s. On an OLED, maybe just about still at 480px/s. On a CRT, you can see read it clearly at 3,840 px/s, faster if your eyes could actually lock on the motion fast enough. OLED fags shitting on LCD motion clarity are the most hilarious breed of uninformed consumerist retards on /g/. You're both sad and pathetic, a literal order of magnitude below what was the standard 25 years ago.
>>107594315trouble reading?i said that if you don't want to play games then oled doesn't matter since that extra motion clarity does nothing
>>107594280Yeah retard, your steam deck doesn’t count lol. They don’t even make OLED monitors below like 240hz.Stick to your CRT then, if you only play shmups and retro platformers. Genuinely the only logical explanation. I have a CRT for those purposes too. But most people play other stuff on PC too, and you’re just trolling if you claim an OLED isn’t superior for a lot of it.I will admit that I wouldn’t pick an OLED for office work, but that’s not what we’re talking about
why on earth would OP use a cropped hentai picture on his thread?
>>107594351120hz has been be standard refresh for OLED TVs for like half a decade at least
>>107594349somehow i can doubt you can read it at that speedsure, i can see it if i slow it down to 60 but i can't read itand you do realise that higher refresh rates make text harder to read due to all that extra information blurring itthat's a retarded flex regardless, picking the shittiest of use cases to extol the virtues of your dead tech
>>107594349Yeah, that display in your pic is really orders of magnitude better than modern OLEDs displays. Lol. You’re really just twisting logic here to deny reality. We could pick apart CRTs specific ghosting patterns, decay flaws and claim they’re worse that way. It’s just stupid.At the end of the day, if I put the two monitors next to each other, and you pointed and claimed the Macintosh looks better, I would have to call you a lying cocksucker
