Are OLED gaming monitors worth it now? I'm getting tired of my IPShit.
>>
>>726456997
>burn-in
no thanks. I can see it being worth it for a handheld or console, but for a PC you have to do shit like hiding your taskbar and making sure not to keep your tabs up for too long to slow down the inevitable burn-in
>works on my machine
good for you, shill
>>
Probably
>>
>>726456997

>Beta testing

I work at a vfx place, we have ~6 LG tvs we bought 2 years ago, $10000 a piece, no burnin on any of them. 2 of the same tvs from a few more generations ago, maybe just before covid, no burnin.
Mind you these get used I'd say for an hour a week, and they are the top spec tvs, so caveat emptor
>>
>>726456997
>can't play anything with too many static elements
>can't idle with the screen on without turning on a screen saver
>>can't play for too long in general
it's quite a tedious piece of tech, and no matter how vigilant you are, it'll likely still get burned in <5 years
>>
>>726456997
Oled are for people with a lot of disposable income.
>>
people getting paid to post about oled burnin on a samoan virgin support group is one of those things that always surprises me
>>
>>726458539
Do you have a single fact to back that up?
>>
>>726458714
The manufacturers.
The thousands of written and video reviews.
The fact that OLEDs come with built-in utilities to mitigate burn-in.
>>
>>726457302
>>works on my machine
>good for you, shill
these two lines evoke immense dread. how many times have you had this same conversation? indeed, oled does not fit your use case
>>

none of the tvs playing video game content have ever burned in in rtings' burn in tests
>>
>>726456997
Not if you make heavy use of VRR technology
Enjoy ur random flickering
>>
>>726461675
I'm starting to question if VRR is even worth it.
>>
>>726458539
>5 years
The joke is that since Oled threads began popping up on /v/ years ago this claim changes all the time. I was there when people said 6 months, then one year, then 3 years. Now it is a vague "less than 5". This comes from the fact that in real world use cases it is pretty much impossible to tell unless someone is one of the extreme cases. There was a dude posting a video on r*ddit the other day who had their entire Fortnite hud burned in because all he played in the last two years is that game on max brightness. Meanwhile I play different games 45 hours a week for 3.5 years now and there is no visible issue (yet heh).
But I do agree with the drawbacks even if the claims are always much worse than in real life. Static elements aren't a severe issue unless you "play" the exact same content all the time. What I really hate is how oled manufacturers hide cruicial information and most of the info out there is hearsay (aside from the RTINGS tests which are ultimately skewed because they blast the same content).
On the side of Oled there is the fact if these would burn in so fast and bad as people claim there would be an outrage instead of a small amount of claims you can find on the web. On the other side since Oled is more expensive it is very likely most users replace it because they see anything noticeable AND the real world use case for most people is not hardcore gaming all day.

It havent burned in for me. Just enable screensaver so the screen goes black when you go take a piss or go eat or fall asleep or whatever
>>
Oleds look very fucking good, I tried to use an IPS monitor with local dimming at first, but the haloing around anything in dim scenes drove me insane, so I returned it and got an OLED instead. I had the same misgiving about not wanting to babysit it, but three years down the line I just use it almost like any other monitor, I just have it set to a black background and I have my taskbar on my secondary monitor, but I use my browser on it all the time (I'm typing this on it right now) and don't even bother to minimize it when I'm not using it anymore, still no burn in. I understand that's probably because of the pixel cleaning that the monitor does every so often, so I've probably lost overall brightness, but I can't tell just from looking.
That said, it WILL burn in eventually, OLEDs are eventual e-waste, so they're probably not for you if you don't want to deal with that eventually or you plan on using it for like a decade. They do look very good though.
>>
>>726463869
Btw i only use one single monitor, not a multimonitor setup

If you use an oled as a secondary monitor where it just displays the exact same content for 12 hours without break then maybe u would have an issue i dont know
>>
>>726463869
>>726463821
good to know
I was mainly worried about when I use assorted software for extended periods of time, but I could just get in the habit of using F11 whenever I don't need to look at multiple windows

No, because I'm not spending $600 on a fucking computer monitor.
>>
>>726456997
I've put 7000 hours on mine of general desktop / gaming use. All I've done to protect it is have the display turn off after 5 minutes of inactivity. No burn in so far. When it eventually does burn in I'll buy another to replace it. No going back to LCD.

Depends what you mean by "worth it" and on what content you actually intend to view on it. If you're also going to use it for work (as in, the 8h a day kind of work) then the screen is going to get raped by burn-in within the year. Is that worth it to you? I guess you have to decide based on your own sensibilities. If you're actually going to use it JUST for games and not work, then it also depends on how much you play and what kinds of games you play as well. If you play a lot of different games but don't play any one in particular for a very long time, it's going to be fine. If you have a favorite / staple game that you play for hours every day, then the screen is still going to get raped with game UI burn-in within the year. The kind of games you play is also going to matter. If the games you play have prominent, permanently-displayed UIs then that's obviously going to be much more burn-in prone (various strategy games, city builders, factory builders, certain RPGs and MMORPGs, etc.).

So it's basically all heavily dependent on what you do and how much you personally care about burn-in. The optimal use case for OLED monitors is basically playing full-screen video and full-screen 3D adventure, console-like games. Things beyond that will tend to have static UI elements to some degree and will rape the screen eventually. Keep in mind that burn-in is cumulative, like if you display the same image for 8h a day it doesn't matter whether it's for 8h continuously or you take a break every 30 minutes and such. Any time you have anything static on screen, it contributes to that element burning in.

You probably have brown eyes so you dont experience they eye raping phenomenon. Just go to rtings on ANY oled and look up the pixel transitions from rgb 0/0/0 to rgb 32/32/32.

Also nobody fucking measures per-pixel deviations that only really exist on OLEDs but not on IPS which basically destroy fine detail gradation. There is a reason that photography fags stood with calibrated IPS screen technology.

If you really want an OLED use it as a second monitor and only for movies and games it's just not worth if you're at your PC for 8-12 hours a day while using it as your main monitor since then it'll get fucked in no time at all.

I still dont know why nvidia doesnt let us set this as a per game setting

>>726466732
There is ALWAYS OLED flicker if you display a dark grey with rgb values 32/32/32
>>
>>726466876
My eyes adjusted to it pretty quickly from all the CS and Valorant I play to where 50% looks washed out. Movies look better to me at 100 but some games I'd have to turn it down to 80 like Cyberpunk cause I can't see shit otherwise with how bright and vibrant they already are.

>>726465981
>Also nobody fucking measures per-pixel deviations that only really exist on OLEDs
This was really noticeable on my first VR headset, the OG Oculus Rift. It has OLED screens and you would see weird patterns and dots at low brightness levels because of uneven response at low signal levels.

Display this on your OLED and it will flicker with the refreshrate. Made worse if VRR is active. Its RGB 32/32/32

This isn't the first time I've heard of dual monitor setups and I have to ask how the fuck does that look in practice

This is what gets me. People say "hurr just use it for games and it won't burn in!"
I don't play a new FOTM every week, I have a couple of games I play regularly and these indeed happen to have very static very permanent large UI elements. I don't disagree that OLED is probably fine if you only watch movies and play a variety of games casually, but I don't get fags who claim it's just perfect and burn-in-proof for everyone.

I was expecting to see burn in already. It hasn't happened. People on /v/ are drama queens. The loudest are the ones who have never owned.

You say this but that guy making burn-in videos on the OLED monitor he uses for his daily office work "torture test" (lol) started noticing the first subtle signs of panel rape after like 3 months and they've gotten worse since then. The guy shows video evidence. So do I trust that guy, or do I trust some random chucklefuck on /v/ who could very well be lying, or alternatively could just be a half-blind retard who can't tell the burn-in is there anyway? Burn-in is definitely the kind of thing that normalfags would be completely incapable of noticing until it got REALLY bad, so can I believe that you are sufficiently discerning to even be able to tell? Maybe you just aren't.

I don't give a fuck who you trust. I'm writing my experience. take it or leave it. It's really not important to me what type of monitor you have so you do you.
>>
>>726469778
>>726469951
Mini led can be great, but you have to do some research. Check some reviews and see how well its full array local dimming works. Some companies cheap out and use less dimming zones, which results in more blooming and light bleeding in. But even a shittier one will have better black levels than most regular led monitors/TVs. The more expensive ones with good FALD and HDR will look about 80-90% of the way to an oled. But you'll need to wait like 10 years for micro led to not cost $100k per TV to get comparable color quality to oled without the burn in.
>>
>>726469951
Im sus about miniled too because their zones dim but I dont know at what frequency, no reviewer seems to test this, they all test at 100% brightness. Usually its pwm dimming so potentially cancerous. But they do get really bright with no automatic brightness limiting and some have really large gamuts too with decent accuracy.

EX321UX seems decent but Im sus about its local dimming. There have been some bad reports, but something was fixed with firmware updates. I dont know if its enough.
>>
>>726471013
If you turn its local dimming off then flickering is fine because its confirmed 4000 Hz pwm, so no eye strain. But this makes it a around 700 nits screen with shitty contrast, raised black levels. Pick your poison it seems.
>>
>>726471440
Im also worried about differential degradation of local dimming zones. Not as bad as OLED, but LCDs too are known for slowly degrading their backlight over time. This cant be as easily fixed as on LCDs with a single backlight.
>>

Tandem Oled are known for withstanding burn-in better because these are brighter while using less energy. QD-Oled still has better colors and overall better image quality since Tandem is still essentially just a glorified WOled with an extra layer but are better at resisting burnin.

They have started using heatsinks but no cooling fans yet. It would probably be too noisy and costly. Also remember these TV's are really thin and meant to be put on walls, where would you even put the fan?

The perfect pixel is a pixel of integrity. It illuminates or darkens at exactly the right time and if it flickers it only does so faithfully as commanded by its digital commander. Pixels are supposed to be transparent, merely a messenger

We're at, what, 700Hz now?
I wonder if we're reaching the realistic limits of the technology right now (similar to how IPS was stuck at 160-ish Hz for years and barely gets to 240Hz nowadays) or if 1000+Hz oleds are genuinely around the corner.

I might actually upgrade from my 240Hz monitor if those arrive. I'm not an esports player but it'd be nice to have sub-milisecond visual response times just for visual clarity

crts didn't have per pixel deviations and the flickering was constant for all colors, not just low brightness colors because it can't be driven at low voltages

Matters a lot on laptops, or for side monitors in a multi-monitor setup. So it does reduce versatility. But it's functionally irrelevant for the primary desktop monitor that will be centered directly in front of you.

I have an ~15 years old TN screen with 1680 resolution and an analog vga connection on my spare PC and after color calibration with a colorimeter it still looks pretty fucking good.

Really? Prove it. Post it.

>>726478825
I remember color space used to be a pretty big issue back in the day, IPS prided itself on having a much bigger colorspace while TNs didn't even always cover the bare minimum sRGB space
Also not everybody has a colorimeter. I also had a TN about 13 years ago or so and it was pretty visibly ugly

>>726479167
There are new models coming out semi-regularly.
What's not being produced as far as I'm aware are budget office tier monitors, since IPS has basically replaced TN there. But for fast refresh rate gaming monitors there's still a TN market.

This thread is giving me Down syndrome, I’ve had a 240hz oled for like 3 years and never noticed or even heard of this flickering shit. People complaining about burn in are probably turning off their screen clean features or something or are just poor and don’t own the superior display
>>
>>726456997
I'm never buying a IPS display again, I bought a high end one back in 2018 that all the reviews of it insured that it has good black levels (for an IPS) but it was fucking shit, it's actually startling how bad it is especially next to the OLED I got earlier this year.

I've seen the flickering but its literally so fucking subtle even the exceedingly rare times it does actually happen that I legitimately laugh to myself at the absolute absurdity of anons in every OLED thread crying about it when they've clearly never laid eyes on an OLED outside of a best buy TV section
it simply couldn't be more of a non-issue, to the point where anyone mentioning it is immediately outed as a sour grapes poorfag

I'd like a high-refresh OLED with BFI but they're expensive so until then, it's CRT for me
specifically, this one

>>726477879
I agree and I hate how TN = bad is pushed so hard. They really have some of the least actual disadvantages and have the most mature and reliable tech. All the other panel types are flawed in actively worse ways and TNs problems are barely problems if you set them up right.

I get new monitors faster than burn in would become a thing, so your complaints don't apply to me. My monitor also comes with a 3 year warranty that covers burn in.

Not to mention they all come with 3 year burn in warranty, which means it's near guaranteed to not burn in within 3 years, and likely 4-5 because they absolutely do not want to replace your $1000+ product if they can avoid it.

If they set the warranty at 3 years, they're pretty confident it won't burn in before that plus a lot of wiggle room.

terrible as a main monitor . enjoy your burn in
oled is never good for games the brightness and darkness levels arent calibrated properly so every dark scene will be cant see shit tier and every brightness scene is a flashbang.
there's constant shilling for oled, ive had oled for 10+ years my first oled tv had genshin health bar permanently burnt in, any static hud elements will burn in. get ips monitor for main monitor and only use oled for movies
>>
>>726457302
People saying burn-in is a myth simply haven't tripped on a usage pattern which creates burn-in, or they are too dumb to notice. That said, I would rather coddle an OLED than go back to LCD. I know how to prevent issues now.

OLED is for phones, you massive retards. It's so you have a less power hungry screen that is also visible in strong outdoor daylight.

coddling and having to tip toe around faulty self destructing hardware is the worst most uncomfortable experience in gaming
blacks are nice thats it and only in movies because games arent designed for pure blacks so literally any dark scene is a fucking abyss
searching around dark caves in a game with an oled is pure cancer
calibrating brightness with oled is pure cancer too

I'm never using non-self emissive displays ever again.

panels now have some surplus pixels that the user cant address that it uses to presumably move the screen around every now and then to mitigate burn in.

wow this is the dumbest thing ive ever read in my life.

what do you use? because it better be a VA panel because if youre running your cumcatch about contrast and using an ips im gonna laugh in your face as i blast my load inside your mother again

i have an OLED ultrawide and a mini-led AMVA TV
i prefer my TV the HDR gets brighter and i can play games with static ui for long sessions without having to stress that im doing permanent damage to my shit
the blacks are nearly the same too you just need to get one with plenty of local dimming zones
>>
I use an oled tv as my daily monitor for programming, internet browsing, gaming, and TV with my gf and haven't had any burn in issues. 4k hdr oled is a godsend and anyone not using atleast one oled monitor, or in my case oled tv, is missing out at this point. Make sure to get a glossy screen, matte is for troglodytes and won't have colors that look as nice.
>>
>>726474163
>old
That is the keyword here. One of the big mistakes in my life was to cling to monitors only to realize a much much better tech is out there for ages. I'm not even talking about just Oled. I used shitty old led monitors for ages and when they finally gave in I bought a new one only to realize I was ruining my eyesight for nothing.
Yes, your monitor will last for eternity. But your eye won't. You don't need to buy oled but I guarantee you could get a much better IPS replacement for cheap right now.
>>
>>726467526
>Why is oled meant to be better visually?
Regular LCD pixels don't generate their own light, they have to be backlit--sort of like shining a flashlight behind colored strips of paper. Some LCD monitors have sophisticated configurations where each region of the screen has a separate backlight but you're still going to get light bleed if the picture has dark areas immediately adjacent to brighter ones. With OLED, each pixel is emitting its own light so there's no light bleed and dark areas can be truly dark even if adjacent to bright areas.
>>
>>726474163
imagine using a monitor for 15 fucking years in a world where tech advances at the rate it does
and then proceeding to think it's a fucking own
I hate this thirdie broke faggot infested board so goddamn much
GUESS WHAT FAGGOT? even if OLED burnin didn't exist, I'd still be ready to upgrade in ~5 years because I'm not a broke faggot and tech gets better as years go by
same type of fucking retard who uses a 1060 3gb while posting fucking gigachads
you deserve to be fucking killed for using a 15 year old monitor and acting smug about it. I have infinitely more respect for even consolekeks than motherfuckers playing games at 1080p 60fps on pc in 2025

You joke but temperature is actually a factor in how quickly these burn in I believe, at least I think the brightness limiting is required because the screen would otherwise overheat and get damaged.

The question is, why would they bother adding proper cooling if people just consoom more screen when it degrades anyway?
>>
What do you guys think of the Alienware AW3425DWM, I know it's VA but it seems pretty good for the price for an ultrawide. I'm just about to buy it.

I think curved UW displays are very niche and I would not want one for sure.
That model is 270€ at the moment so if that's your fetish why not. It's dirt cheap, you can always return it if you don't like it.
Just be aware of VRR flicker on this display.
>>
>>726498074
21:9 isn't that niche anymore, a lot of people are buying them and a lot of games support it natively now. 32:9 is niche, I love it, but that's the point where it may be too much depending on your tastes.
