Deliberately Burning In My QD-OLED Monitor - 15 Month Update

Nope. Here is the AW3423DW I used for gaming but also working from home with static content, after about 2.5 years of full time use.I got it replaced under warranty and sold the new one. I use a mini LED now as a compromise.I loved this monitor, and this took some time but burn in can happen and I w

No Comparison to OLED

More like, "a picture is worth 1000 lies." I went from QD-OLED (Alienware AW3423DW) to IPS black (Dell U4025QW), and the difference in everyday use is so small as to be unnoticeable. Photos exaggerate the IPS glow to a ridiculous degree. It's nothing like how human eyes perceive it.

Noticeable VRR flicker with G-sync Pulsar

This kind of shit (particularly with OLED) is why I am so wary about giving up my AW3423DW. It's the only OLED monitor with a hardware Gsync module, and thus the only one that seems to have reasonable VRR flicker performance. We're almost 4 years on from the launch of this monitor, and have been hea

For those who have purchased an OLED monitor, do you regret it or would you recommend it?

I bought the aw3423dw when it first came out, $1300, still using it today and no visible burn in. I think if you want some peace of mind, get the newest gen QD-OLED panel (is it on 4th gen now?) from a vendor with a 3 year warranty and enjoy the incredible boost in visuals for all content. The only

VR as a home cinema/theater replacement?

I do. I never liked watching movies in vr, but it finally passed the threshold for me with a bigscreen beyond 2. It’s lightweight, OLED, pancake lenses and has high enough resolution. It’s the first headset that checks all of the boxes. I ditched the audio strap and use Sennheiser 650s with an amp.

The Akita is a money printing machine in Cursed Mode

DAMN. I bet gaming on it looks amazing. I run an Alienware AW3423DW and I love it. Ultrawide and Super Ultrawide (when supported) are the best for gaming.

Game Ready & Studio Driver 595.59 FAQ/Discussion

For one...even on a normal OLED, VRR is still very useful most of the time. Takes somewhat wild framerate swings to induce notable flicker, or quite a low framerate (at least on a lot of models, some are pretty bad though, I'll admit). For two...OLEDs with hardware Gsync modules that bring them to t

Nvidia releases first G-Sync Pulsar update to deal with artifacts below 90 FPS, plus a new 60Hz mode

I'm really interested in Pulsar monitors but I don't know if it's worth swapping to from my AW3423DW OLED. I love the colors, but I am a pretty competitive gamer... and honestly, the idea of old games that are locked to 60fps feeling more 'crt-like' just kind of sounds awesome.

OLED monitor recommendation

Damn that's a solid build, the 9800x3d is gonna crush souls games For OLED I'd say look at the LG C2/C3 42" if you want the best bang for buck - can usually find them on sale and they're perfect for single player games. If you want something more monitor-sized the Alienware AW3423DW is still great b
