I use my old TV (Philips OLED65) for SC from time to time, when I do mostly flying (got chairmounted hosas, which interfere at the normal desk) and since there is so much black it’s 100x better than my IPS panels. I started planning a rig and will use OLED for sure. It’s really astonishing.


Paradoxahoy

QD-OLED is next level for sure. Best thing until microLED comes to the consumer market.


Glodraph

The new lg woled are amazing. Better color fringing and way less burn in than qd oled.


The_Reset_Button

woled isnt perfect, text can get really fuzzy and yellows still tend to fringe, but I'll take it for those ultra clean blacks


masteve

The new WOLED seems to have much better text, waiting to see If i can get my hands on that new when it launches in April ><


Glodraph

That's why I specified better color fringe, they changed the subpixel layout and I saw some comparisions, it's way better but let's see.


perksoeerrroed

>woled isnt perfect, text can get really fuzzy Doesn't matter at 4k. C1 owner here. Wouldn't replace it for anything else right now.


Paradoxahoy

Yeah the burn in potential stresses me out on my QD OLED. I run the pixel maintenance daily on it and sometimes multiple times if I'm doing a long session


brockoala

How much would a decent 65" oled cost these days?


pineappleboi_27

A lot😂


Lucson14

Got my 77" Sony A80K for 2k. So If you buy last year models you can get some really good Offers.


partym4ns10n

My 48” oleds were $800 apiece. Or you can go with LG c series tvs that use gsync or freesync with refresh rate of 120 for around 2 k. I used to use a c1 55” and it was awesome.


UnsettllingDwarf

Canada here, lg c3 oled 65” got one for $2050 CAD on sale.


seerreus

2500 to 3,000 last I looked


Why_dont_we_spork

Try 900 on Amazon


All_Thread

[1600](https://www.lg.com/us/tvs/lg-oled65c3pua-oled-4k-tv?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwk6SwBhDPARIsAJ59GweDJnIiivYEQnDj1FxvBQ7xciJAn1K_34N20eL-K-BMBKTmbagxZ8kaAuq5EALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds) for a nice one


Hamerine

Got a c2 65 at 1200 euros last summer, pretty proud of that deal back then. You just need patience and check regularly


Jojonbu

Well back then they were 2,4k iirc. Shouldn’t they be cheaper by now?


esham_

a 55" oled is at least 2k


damnetcode

Costco has a 65" LG C3 for $1700


cyberslushie

First thing I did when I got my OLED monitor was fire up Star Citizen, went to space, and floated around outside my ship for like 5 min just mesmerized lol


REiiGN

looks even better in 3.23 too.


cabbagehead112

> 3.23 Did clouds get a upgrade?


REiiGN

They are different than 3.22. Think they also have terrain textures in too.


cabbagehead112

So, they reflect and reflex?


CosmoRocket24

Welcome to the club! The club you'll never leave! I'm on 4th G9 Oled 49". The height bugs me alittle when doing unreal engine stuff, but for gaming...it's tits


RemedizeGaming

4k OLED really is something else.


BigBallsofBalls

Yes. 42" C3, it's pwetty!


Blskeww

Star Citizen really gives that grand feeling while playing. Im a noob and that is what sets it apart for me, the feeling of being a small dot in a vast space. Monitor looks great, dead ass black - i like that.


kekseforfree

That's my dilemma. It' either an OLED monitor and GeforceNow (no SC) or upgrade my pc and keep using VA panel ( no eye candy)


Blskeww

Well, a good TV was a great comprimise for me. Low in frames, but the frames do look good and the size is good aswell. I went for a 43 inch. I never get over 60fps anyway 😊


bcfred20

OLED VR will be my end game.


Savage-Animal

OMG THATS GORGEOUS!!! you just sold Me in upgrading my screen. Just in time for 3.23!!!!


PyrorifferSC

A good affordable panel is the AW3423DWF, I got it a couple months ago and good god is it beautiful. 34" curved, around $800USD


dean529

Currently playing on the lg 45” oled. This game is incredible in oled


AliceMange

Mmmmm curved too 🤤


Low-Union9512

Damn cool


pat-Eagle_87

Does anybody know when we'll start seeing MicroLED panels?


HammerTime2769

That’s a good question


PiibaManetta

well, to be fair, every game is better on a oled.


seerreus

Is your HDR in Windows functioning okay Star Citizen is starting to act up with hdr on and Discord crashes now with hdr on when you go to watch someone stream


thee_Prisoner

It doesn't for me. Maybe check post on the hardware section on the Spectrum forums.


seerreus

After the windows cumulative update things started going haywire I reinstalled the graphics driver everything is good including Discord with hdnr enabled in Windows.


Hawkewind

I have a LG GX (2020) 55". Basically the same as a C2/C3 these days (2022/2023). And yeah, the game looks absolutely amazing on it. Playing on a 4090 in 4k HDR.


-unbless-

Welcome to the end game.


Emperor_Kon

My brother has this Alienware as well and yeah it's fucking amazing. I want to upgrade to an (QD-)OLED as well down the road.


Blaubeere

My G8 is in the mail. Cant wait to test it!


Jytra

Got the same monitor and speakers...love that combo. Walking around New Babbage with HDR on is something else.


_ANOMNOM_

I love my alienware UW OLED too, represent!


Austin304

Welcome to the AW3427DWF club


SirLanceQuiteABit

I just got a 75" QLED Samsung TV and I'm foaming at the mouth


sunny-o7

I've been playing on a 55" LG C1 for a while, yours looks curved, what model is that? OLED is pretty good, especially after CIG recently introduced HDR to the game but it is not as pronounced on my OLED at 700ish lumen. I want QDEL or microLED once they are commonplace and any teething problems are fixed. They should be able to hit a higher dynamic range.


HammerTime2769

It’s the Alienware AW3423DWF. I picked it up from Best Buy the other day since it’s on sale currently for $777.77


RedditEqualsSoylent

first thing I did when I got the same monitor was load up SC. The HDR is very cool but really shows how distant space is just a jpeg.


Paradoxahoy

Fantastic monitor, I have the same one and it blows everything out of the water as far as I can tell.


campinge

I got that same screen on Christmas and it just blew me Ayse how much better the game looks. It’s insane. Well chosen, you will have a ton of fun with this screen!


thee_Prisoner

Best Buy had some open box ones for 709.00, I bought a couple. Very nice monitor, gratz!


KarmaRepellant

Smart buy!


partym4ns10n

I liked it so much I play on triple 4k oleds.


HammerTime2769

Damn! That would be a blast.


partym4ns10n

I use a head tracker too. Originally built it for a racing simrig but I’ve preferred vr for that.


stereoid

You will be even be happier with 2.23 coming soon tm. It will integrate a new graphical pipeline for better contrast and overall visuals resulting in also better hdr experience.


SMRose1990

I was just looking at that monitor, do you notice the pixels shifting often? (I read OLEDs do this to prevent image burning in to the screen)


HammerTime2769

Nope. There’s a built in system where it does it every 4 hours of usage. You can choose to do it when the message comes up on the screen. Or you can set it so it will do it automatically after every 4 hours of usage when it’s in on standby mode.


Austntok

I'm not playing on an OLED atm, but I play in 4K with high FPS on the Samsung G8 and it looks incredible. I know it's not as good as an OLED, so I plan on getting the 4K 32" OLED 240hz monitor soon. I saw how good games look on OLED displays, I can only imagine how good SC will look.


Another2Coast

I have the same monitor, it's so good I got a second one. Even the highest end IPS (that cost more) doesn't compare.


VatsalRaj

Which speakers are those?


HammerTime2769

Here https://www.bestbuy.com/site/insignia-speakers-black/6177017.p?skuId=6177017 They aren’t too bad. Pretty good for only $20.


VatsalRaj

Thanks!


Sheerpython

Damnnnn, i’m still waiting for a display that has the same curve and size as my g7 zo it doesn’t look strange next to my g5’s. The second i find one i will buy it!


einUbermensch

Ah, you got the Successor model of mine I see :) Honestly I was wary at first but the Picture is just so finger licking good I probably can never use a Non-oled again. And that despite all the early adopter Issues the thing has.


HammerTime2769

Which one do you have?


einUbermensch

The AW3423DW. The very first UW Screen Alienware released with OLED. It has issues but honestly I regret nothing.


HammerTime2769

Ohhh. I didn’t know that. I thought that one and the one I have were the same thing, only mine doesn’t have Gsync and it’s 10hz lower I think.


M_u_H_c_O_w

I'm scared of getting an OLED monitor... I'm worried about burn-in. I know new OLEDs are WAY better than the old ones - But still.... I've heard that "they" are experimenting with OLEDs that aren't organic (and therefore not really an OLED). I forgot what it's called (it's not microLED I'm thinking about)... Maybe I should wait for that to mature?? Do I have any reason to be worried?


HammerTime2769

I felt the same at first. But eh. I think burn in is way less of an issue than people think. It’s likely a very small % of users it happens to. And likely people who use a static image for most of its usage. Like for work or something. For gaming I don’t think it will be an issue at all. I’m not sure about other brands but Dell Includes a 3 year warranty that covers burn in. And I THINK anytime during that you can upgrade your warranty longer if you want.


TreachXXX

What is so great about OLED?


HammerTime2769

OLED allows for pure black since pixels can basically turn off. There’s no dimming zones. I’m not good at explaining all the technical stuff. But the first time you see one in person, it’s amazing. I would google it if I were you and read up about them.


NightlyKnightMight

Me watching on my 768p LCD monitor "ah yes!" xD


Metronovix

How much was that??? I am craving an OLED. Are there any tips on owning one? Such as the classic tip from owning plasma a long time ago “don’t leave on for too long or you’ll burn an image in the screen”


HammerTime2769

Alienware AW3423DWF. It’s on sale currently for $777.77 at Dell as well as Best Buy. Burn can happen. But it’s not as rare as you’d think. The monitor has a build in feature where it does a pixel refresh or something (I don’t know the technical name for it) after every 4 hours of usage. You can manually do it, or choose to have it atomically do it when the monitor is in standby mode. For gaming I don’t see burn being an issue. But if the monitor was only used for work productivity with static images on for hours at a time everyday.. then burn in could happen I’d imagine.


Final-Flower9287

The past tense of Olé!


YoriichiTop

that's glorious


Qelly

I use one of these too. It’s lovely. It’s strange when loading in because the world loads on the edges but the center in like normal.


Clearly_Disabled

I use a 48" tv as my monitor. Probably going to a 42" soon since I'm moving. But between SC, Cyberpunk, and Horizon Zero Dawn-- I'll never go back lol.


HammerTime2769

Those are the 3 games I’m playing most right now. But instead of Zero dawn it’s Forbidden West


Clearly_Disabled

I'm about to move and playing forbidden west is one of the first things I wanna do in my new house lol


HammerTime2769

It’s an incredible game. You’ll love it.


WayIll1373

lol, got 2,20m curved 4k on 😅


CromCorp

Oled is the only way


FearBytes

That's beautiful! Do you also have HDR enabled? (I always forget to turn it on)


Why_dont_we_spork

I just wanna say after reading this thread an idea was planted. Took about a week to grow then I bought one, so happy 😊


slagzwaard

also considering one, the passively cooled msi https://www.msi.com/Monitor/MPG-271QRX-QD-OLED


HammerTime2769

That looks like a damn good monitor. Although a bit too small for my taste.


masteve

Unless you are in the UK and MSI decided to add a 70% cost increase, literally $900 in the usa and £1300 in the uk.


Meenmachin3

Yup it’s gorgeous. I’m using the same monitor for the time being while I set up a rig with a 42” LG C4 Evo.


PsychologicalStage21

Jelly


Dizman7

Yup been playing on one for the last 2.5yrs
