    LG 38GL950G - 37.5" 3840x1600/G-Sync/175Hz

    Yes the 38gl950g I've read a few conflicting posts on reddit so just wanted to be sure as it is a sizeable investment in these monitors and so far I've been running these for months with zero issues

    LG 38GL950G - 37.5" 3840x1600/G-Sync/175Hz

    Is it fine to have say Discord/Telegram/Firefox running on the 2nd monitor whilst gaming? Or should I alternate with 4k videos to keep the pixels moving? Don't want to get any potential burn in during long gaming sessions

    How did you set the refresh rate at 165Hz and 4:4:4 in Nvidia Control Panel?

    100% agree. All the problems made public with the pg35vq how can anyone overlook these and then recommend it? I did have an odd problem with one of my monitors today, was using it all day and then the screen went dark (similar to the monitor going in to standby) however the led light ring at...

    Not sure if the new module has a fan (might be passively cooled) however in this model there is no fan

    Did he??! I’m not a subscriber to his YouTube channel however I might have to watch that video. Thanks for the heads up :)

    LG 38GL950G - 37.5" 3840x1600/G-Sync/175Hz

    It's not colour shift, I have it on both my LG's however it is no where near as bad as the pictures bigbluefe posted. It is reduced when the brightness is turned up however I run mine at 40 brightness and I can barely notice it especially viewing Windows Explorer or tabs in Safari. I...

    I can see where you are coming from. I went through 2 before I settled on my current ones. The original monitors had a combination of dead pixels and poor ips glow. I’m not saying mine does not have the ips glow however it is no where near as prominent as the pics you posted. As for LTT, I...

    Damn that’s not good. I have my brightness set to 40 and the ips glow is barely visible. I do not see any glow in open tabs of Firefox or Windows Explorer. Maybe try and arrange for a replacement possibly from a different shop?

    What brightness settings do you have your monitor set at? I’ve had numerous ips monitors now and all have exhibited this around the borders, some worse than others. The 2 monitors I had to return all had this effect similar to yours. Now I’m not saying my replacements do not have it however...

    Nice! I am still looking around for a decent monitor arm that can support 38" Ultrawides but not having much success. Some of the reviews of the ones I have found say the arms sag... Thinking I might have to use 2 separate arms

    LG 38GL950G - 37.5" 3840x1600/G-Sync/175Hz

    Just an update, picked up both new monitors Friday and so far no dead pixels and minimal light bleed/ips glow. Both monitors set to 144hz/8 bit via Nvidia control panel. These panels are absolutely awesome. Very happy with the replacements. I’ve got both side by side and the immersion from 1...
