    Monitors larger than 32", but not curved or ultrawide?

    If you are doing graphics work, and 3d work that includes textures and colors - be aware that FALD screens are non-uniform by nature of the backlight tech. So if you need absolute values, it might not be possible with FALD. Wherever there is bright light next to darks, or light/dark...

    Where are the 8K Monitors?

    Interesting but not really apples to apples comparing a 4k TV. For long 34 - 40 deg living room home theater enthusiasts it makes sense to compare them, since at those distances 4k already gets ~ 120PPD. For people looking for 8k desktop-app real-estate for PC use along with 240Hz 4k...

    Would you ever go back to LCD after experiencing OLED?

    Micro LED would be great. Afaik there are still not consumer price range and sized micro LED screens. They are like 100" plus and over $100 thousand usd. . . . Considering that I don't think those are a viable alternative overall just yet. . . . . FALD is not a microLED. FALD are...

    Would you ever go back to LCD after experiencing OLED?

    You can't get the same kind of black depth and contrast in uniform fashion on FALD LCDs. In large planes of dark or bright you can get very large values - but wherever there is mixed brights and darks (which is how most detail, depth is shown in textures, clothes, hair, architecture, geography...

    Where are the 8K Monitors?

    While the array with the 48" 4k OLED might seem like a lot, it's still less than 7680 x 2160 of a 8k screen. It's 3x 4k screens, and ~3.5x 4k screens if I added the 49" ultrawide - as compared to 4x 4k worth of pixel real-estate on a 8k screen. Plus, up until now, I mostly only use the...

    Where are the 8K Monitors?

    I'm saying if you dial in a pretty stable array of windows and apps you typically use, you have delineating lines on the screen already, even as just tiles like you are saying. You still have the flexibility for other layouts or dedicating a large portion of a screen to a singular devolopment...

    Where are the 8K Monitors?

    What I was trying to get at was that I am leaning back toward an array of screens (without a middle bezel). The point was that once you dedicate some spaces you typically use for windows management, the window frames are almost like mini bezels anyway. I still wouldn't want a bezel right down...

    Where are the 8K Monitors?

    I checked it out briefly, thanks. I'm still following along the threads. Really interested in whenever RTings gets a review up. There are very few other places that would review something that is sort of niche like this. Everyone so far has been pretty shy of taking on reviewing the...

    LG 48CX

    More options are good. How useful it is to individuals or particular games/settings vs rates could "vary" . ;)

    Yes I like to call them frame rate "potholes" being from the northeast usa where seasonal freezing and thawing causes an ongoing problem, breaking up roads into deep potholes in places. I think what he was saying was not that your frame rate would never drop below 200fpsHz, rather that VRR...

    Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 57" 7680x2160 super ultrawide (mini-LED)

    There was a port cover panel shown in the video, being removed as part of the process, but not a big deal.

    Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 57" 7680x2160 super ultrawide (mini-LED)

    Might depend how much of a pita it is to you to move the screen from where you want it and remove the housing. But yeah infrequent I guess.

    Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 57" 7680x2160 super ultrawide (mini-LED)

    You could probably get a usb switch to swap a usb thumbdrive between the tv and your pc, running a usb cable to the back of the monitor (or tv) as if it was the drive. Then you could wipe it and dump the newer firmware on it from the pc, then hit the usb switch over from your desktop so you can...

    Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 57" 7680x2160 super ultrawide (mini-LED)

    I posted some comparison screenshots using this guy's (pete matheson's youtube channel) review of the g95nc much earlier in this thread. Like this one (dotted line added by me) I guess I missed this update from a few months ago, idk if anyone linked it in the thread or not. His personal...

    Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 49" 5120x1440 super ultrawide (QD-OLED)

    This github convo thread from Mark R of blurbusters (from about a year ago) regarding text subsampling might be of interest if anyone hasn't seen it. https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues/25595 Though there is no "fix" for rgb-based text sub-sampling to get it to work properly on a...
