Oled monitors are usually cooled well at least

#

Wake me when microled is viable

sage sluice
devout forum
#

Really low zone counts tho

dense locust
lone mango
#

I got the hyperx armada from microcenter for something like 150 and its really good

devout forum
#

The ones you speak about have really low zone counts with blatantly obvious artifacts

#

OLED is coming down in price guys I swear

dusk knot
#

OLED is the future

devout forum
#

It's getting there

dense locust
#

Had the same error with hours of searching wtf was causing it only for it to be stupid hyper x app

#

What about taskbar burn in on oled

sage sluice
#

a nice monitor is great, but you realize most games right now dont even properly use oled's contrast

devout forum
lone mango
#

Because my old monitor had my taskbar burned in

sage sluice
#

and oled is also more understandable for esports

devout forum
#

I already do that and I have an IPS

sage sluice
#

but otherwise like

#

why fork over money you dont have or could put in a different department for more

rancid juniper
#

this is STRANGE

devout forum
#

Wait actually there are people who always have their taskbar up???

rancid juniper
#

very strange

#

DAMN

sage sluice
#

and you can always make the miniled a second monitor too if oled becomes cheaper

lone mango
#

Hiding it in windows sucks

devout forum
#

You monster

sage sluice
#

except for in games

lone mango
#

Its slow to come back and the animation is like 20 fps

fresh timber
#

me who would run 7700xt and oled

devout forum
#

It runs smooth for me???

lone mango
#

So its slow to go away too

devout forum
#

What PC do you have Cloud???

lone mango
fresh timber
#

i know somebody who runs a 4090 +7600xt just cause the 4090 cant run his monitor properly

sage sluice
devout forum
#

Ye

lone mango
#

Maybe they made it better for 11

#

Oh Im on 10

sage sluice
#

so an oled might not be in the budget

devout forum
#

And it disappears in like a secoñd

lone mango
#

So thats why

sage sluice
#

diminishing returns

lone mango
#

It sucks on 10

Honestly spending 500 on an OLED is absolutely going to improve your experience more than spending that same 500 on a GPU

sage sluice
dense locust
sage sluice
#

theres also paying your car payments, rent, life

devout forum
#

If you talk 4080 + IPS vs 7700XT + OLED

I'm taking that OLED every time

sage sluice
#

oled pricing isnt enough to justify a bit better contrast for me

#

or smoothness

devout forum
#

Ah yes, infinite contrast and perfect blacks are not enough to justify

sage sluice
devout forum
sage sluice
#

again, oled for me is too much diminishing returns

devout forum
devout forum
#

The miniLEDs that are actually affordable have so few backlight zones that you'll have an awful time with zone artifacts

fresh timber
#

Oled feels so good

devout forum
#

A good miniLED costs close to OLED pricing

fresh timber
#

The oled makes up for lower fps

sage sluice
devout forum
#

60fps on an OLED to me feels better than 120 on an IPS

lone mango
#

I think most people do not care enough to go up to oled unless you care about going to oled or maybe this is no oled experience speaking

sage sluice
#

oled is a lesser of two evils but i still would rather put that money elsewhere if im spending wisely

dusk knot
#

Miniled is the past.

fresh timber
lone mango
#

Like I think most people just want something good enough

sage sluice
#

blackhole i feel like you arent really reasoning 😭

devout forum
#

I mean yes at 60fps OLED does diminish a little
But it's STILL better than the IPS at like double the res

lone mango
#

Like oled is the minmaxing of panels

sage sluice
#

like just because yeah better blacks is better than a gpu upgrade, on a budget people are spending money to get bang for their buck

#

oled isnt that, its awesome, but not that

devout forum
sage sluice
#

well thats called preference

#

for the average person however

#

a miniled is MORE than servicable

#

ofc when you get to enjoy oled youll probably be biased towards it

devout forum
#

The average person changes GPUs more often than they change monitors

sage sluice
#

ive bought more monitors than gpus

fresh timber
#

The average person will see oled and mini led next to ea ch other and go wowwww

#

Oled better

devout forum
#

MiniLED is like a gateway drug to proper HDR

sage sluice
#

i think a ferarri is better than a little mini cooper, if the cooper is good value im obviously going for it

devout forum
#

But once you taste the weapons-grade plutonium that's OLED

There's no going back

sage sluice
#

better does not equal better value for money

sage sluice
#

blackhole, youre a blackhole of oled

#

😭

sweet phoenix
#

Oled isn't always the answer

devout forum
#

I'm half tempted to call you out Balou

sage sluice
#

call me out

#

for what

devout forum
#

Cuz I have not yet heard anyone say what you do that actually experienced OLED

#

You're very much the exception so far in my experience

sweet phoenix
#

I've seen oled and im saying the same thing

#

I've also seen mini led

devout forum
#

Alright that's 2 exceptions

sweet phoenix
#

The $330 difference isn't worth it to everyone

sage sluice
#

so what youre saying is because a majority in your pov says it its objectively correct?

sweet phoenix
#

On a high end pc it makes sense, you're already spending $1500-2500

sage sluice
#

90% of the people in my state are right leaning. doesnt mean im wrong to lean otherwise

devout forum
sage sluice
devout forum
#

Then again

sage sluice
#

oled isnt the issue here, its the price

#

not everyone is pissing money

#

and if i can get amazing value out of a miniled instead

devout forum
#

My perception could be warped by the fact that I can get a 1440p 240hz QD-OLED for only 10% mode than a 240hz 1440p IPS

sage sluice
#

why spend money i dont have

I think I found out why my PC can't run 3600mhz anymore:

Slots A2/B2 (recommended ram slots) actually work with one stick individually, adding two sticks for dual channel does not work, so it seems to be a problem with the CPU. All ram slots work.

Slots A1/B1 (unoptimized ram slots) works well with two sticks installed for dual channel however it cannot clock up over 3000M/T. It seems to be a CPU issue more than a motherboard problem. @idle nexus @mortal grail

It's so crazy that a 32" 4k 240hz OLED monitor costs almost double that of a 4k 144hz OOED tv

misty sparrow
#

It’s probably the high refresh rate (and a bit of the gaming branding)

devout forum
#

While arguably the 42" is going to be a better experience

misty sparrow
#

I’d take a TV over that any day of the week

devout forum
#

Tho yes
The 32" is QD-OLED

#

While the TV is WOLED

#

But tbh I don't think that's such a big difference

#

WOLED gets brighter while QD-OLED has more color volume at the same brightness right?

misty sparrow
#

Don’t know

#

Yeah you’re right

devout forum
#

So yeah

#

The monitor does have some advantages

#

I believe QD-OLED is also more resistant to image retention

It's under a different label like "motion smoothing" or something similar

oh yeah, motion smoothing

combined with a lot of AI upscaling crap it isn’t a great combo

That sentence describes a lot of modern tech “advancements”

misty sparrow

yeah

#

this smartTV I have uses AI upscaling in a lot of places and it looks great sometimes, takes old media and makes it look like it came out today

#

sometimes though, there’s a weird jitter on content and it looks bright sometimes. I guess there’s a trade off to these things, or maybe the tech isn’t ready yet

i meant the free monster hunter if you submit a review

sweet phoenix

pea es you

sweet phoenix
wise wigeon
#

God no

#

Pled is way too expensive rn

sweet phoenix
#

Ok then around $350-500 for a solid monitor

dense locust
frigid stag
#

Wish there was glossy ips

opaque sedge
#

Anybody else see that clearance lg oled ultrawide… its sold out unfortunately

frigid stag
#

Imagine not buying a 300$ oled

wise wigeon
#

Honestly it’s best I avoided 4k

dense locust
#

my god

wise wigeon
#

Damn was that 2k res?

fresh timber
frigid stag
wise wigeon
#

Widescreen 1440 I mean

frigid stag
#

It’s something like 5kx 1440 I think

wise wigeon
#

Christ

#

That was the deal Ngl

frigid stag
#

Honestly for the price it’s worth it

lone mango
#

fr

frigid stag
#

Hard to run but whatever

sweet phoenix
#

Cheapest 4k monitor thats worth it

wise wigeon
#

But yeah it’s prob best I just stick to 1440p

dense locust
sweet phoenix
dense locust
#

this prob sold out in seconds when it went up

sweet phoenix
#

But a 1440p oled is just abt the same price

frigid stag
#

Eh it took like 30 mins

sweet phoenix
#

I really don't see the point of 4k non oled for most gamers

frigid stag
#

To an hour

sweet phoenix
#

The aoc mini led is really impressive

#

I have it myself

dense locust
#

screw oled just wait decades for microled

wise wigeon
frigid stag
#

It’s cheaper

frigid stag
#

Rather pay 300 than 1k

sweet phoenix
#

4k oled makes sense for some people at the very high end

frigid stag
#

I mean some people prefer 4k 144 over 1440 240

sweet phoenix
#

4k non oled i don't understand for almost anyone

dense locust
#

i got a 4k oled with my 5080

frigid stag
#

300 is really cheap tbf

dense locust
sweet phoenix
frigid stag
#

You can’t even get 240 in any game except esports

#

And older games like 2017 and older

#

Plus u don’t have to deal with oled flicker that way

#

If you’re sensitive to pwm

wise wigeon
#

Welp I have a 1440p monitor

#

And unlike mahiro if I got Msi’s oled 1440p it isn’t with a 5080

#

Ok time to start ack this xtx up

#

Pack*

frigid stag
#

It’s not the end of the world if u don’t have oled

#

Guess which ones ips kekw

misty sparrow
#

Right

wise wigeon
frigid stag
#

No bleed as u can see

misty sparrow
#

The one on the right looks a bit brighter than the one on the left

fresh timber
misty sparrow
#

and something seems off with the honey tool on the right

wise wigeon
misty sparrow
#

it looks discolored at the bottom of it

fresh timber
#

The left has inky blacks while the right doesn’t

#

I can tell

frigid stag
fresh timber
#

See the right is grey

#

Easy

frigid stag
#

Or this

fresh timber
#

Mines kinda does that

#

I don’t complain

frigid stag
#

Idk some definitely have that common but higher end ips shouldn’t really have that

dense locust

Although much less susceptible than Plasma TVs, LCD TVs are still subject to screen burn in (image retention). In general, you should avoid keeping a static picture (that is, a picture that contains no or few moving elements) or a picture with static elements (black bars, black borders, logos, etc.)

fresh timber
sweet phoenix
#

The benefits of 1440p oled far outweigh it

lone mango
#

No way

#

Monitor talk still going

wise wigeon
#

A week helped straighten out the xtx Ik shield but it doesn’t unmangle my display ports unfortunately

fresh timber
sweet phoenix
#

Ooh spooky frame loss

wise wigeon

#

9070 has 256 bit bus and 16 gigs

#

thanks amd

wise wigeon
#

Used to be worse

misty sparrow
#

What does 4K even look like on a large display like a TV anyway

#

Can you even tell?

sweet phoenix
pliant berry
#

looks like 1080p on a desktop display

nocturne flicker
wise wigeon
#

Well you’re standing presumably farther away than a monitor so no probably not

sweet phoenix
#

9070xt performs somewhere between the 7900 gre and better than a 4080 depending on the leak you look at lol

pliant berry
#

honestly though on many budget tv's 1080p media looks just fine

wise wigeon
#

So if you were dissing 5070 ti value idk why you would start praising AMD

sinful blade
#

I exclusively play on 1080p

sinful blade
#

Not a big fan of lower performance

wise wigeon
sweet phoenix
#

Mb

lone mango
#

Id say like 7900 xt or so since the leaks are kinda over the place

wise wigeon
#

They are

sweet phoenix
#

Id just hold your praise till we get the real performance

wise wigeon
#

We were trying to extrapolate rat perf last night but AMD don’t list settings

nocturne flicker
#

:pepehmmm:

wise wigeon
sweet phoenix
#

Either way 7000 series isn't as good as we were hoping

lone mango
#

Oh mb that was xt perf

#

I mean the 9070 having the same mem config

#

I forgot what 9070 perf was

#

Everyone is focused on the xt rn

sweet phoenix
#

I still think they'll be better value than the 5070 ti, considering current availability and pricing (if tarrifs don't drive 9070/xt pricing higher)

wise wigeon
#

Because even if it’s $650 msrp I don’t think that’s the price it’s generally selling for

sweet phoenix
#

There's typically a few msrp models

nocturne flicker
wise wigeon
#

Nvidia aibs def made more of and higher models than AMD

sweet phoenix
#

Amd said they were holding on their launch partially to stock up cards so they have plenty on launch, but we'll see

lone mango
#

Yall remember that hungarian retailer that showed the card

#

I think it was a video

sweet phoenix
#

The 8 ball knows about as much as me

wise wigeon
#

I mean these are the same people who bet $10 6000 series wouldn’t be a a paper launch

lone mango
#

This was in january

#

And pictures of boxes were pullin up too

wise wigeon
#

Well you would hope they have more stock with over a month of stock pile

#

Thing is how many of those cards percentage wise are msrp cards

lone mango
#

So if they really are stocking up then amd really will score if prices are right

wise wigeon
#

Vs say a tuf card, a nitro plus, or a Merc

sweet phoenix
#

I sincerely hope that's enough time lol

#

Would be good if they announce a lower tier card too

lone mango
#

Mlid also showed that retailers are stocked up

wise wigeon
#

I can’t imagine aibs are particularly happy with a delayed launch and a drop in price

lone mango
#

And that was a while ago too

#

Thing is

sweet phoenix
#

Like a 9060 or 9060xt around the $300-450 range

lone mango
#

Most of the internet is bots

wise wigeon
sweet phoenix
#

I've very rarely heard about/from Moores law is dead and they consistently seem wrong

#

I also dislike their name

wise wigeon
#

I hope he’s right but him and red gaming can’t hide are so AMD pulled man

lone mango
#

Yeah but its another sign that they are stocked up

wise wigeon
#

But yeah like the in store stock of 70 ti wasn’t the worst issue is most cards weren’t msrp

#

Asus and gigabyte aren’t against the price hike

#

They lead them

sweet phoenix
#

Asus is the worst with the price hike

wise wigeon
#

Sapphire, xfx, and powercolor I expect better but I wouldn’t count them out

#

Sapphire would obviously want to sell more nitro plus over just say a pulse

#

If nitro plus is a 20% up charge then even at a 650 msrp expecting a $850 model

#

And people love flocking to the nitro plus

#

I would know I’m one of them

#

That new one is ugly as hell though

Lua code?

sinful blade

Unironically Lua is a great introduction to learn coding apparently

mental yoke

It's what roblox uses

sinful blade

#

If you learn Lua, you can make a lot of passive income programming Roblox games lmao

mental yoke
#

I don't play roblox but yeah I could

#

I didn't know you can get revenue on roblox

sinful blade
#

Game makers on Roblox can earn a lot

#

There’s plenty of actual kids doing it

roblox takes a large cut but ye, there are a lot of kids that managed to pay their college tuition with their games lol
