I think you're lucky to have the CX. I know I feel lucky. (Sometimes my neck might disagree.) Finding a new 48" CX appears to be impossible at this point. Or almost so... 1) You can't turn off the dimming on the C3. Or you can, but it doesn't...

I'm also somewhat weary of firmware updates. As mine had sat in a box for so long I did one big update to catch it up about a year ago when I first got it. Since then it's been disconnected from the Internet.

Thank you. That sounds encouraging.

I would like to know more about this. Any consensus on turning it off, e.g., during a lunch break, versus leaving it on, but in Screen Off mode? Any downside regarding the latter in that the hours counter would continue to run given the counter's...

Was just typing out a question to that effect. :)

For sure. I'm kind of thinking of just using RTX HDR for everything. Gaming wise I mean. Closest to a one and done maybe. Have it set up similar to Plasma for Gaming's recommendations.

Using this resolution on the FW900.

I find the image quality with the DP2VGAHD2 to be quite pleasing. Bought a spare or two.

Loved the matte finish on my old Samsung rear projector. Was just beautiful. Perfect. And was until the end. I do love the glossy black on this CX. It's pretty incredible. I think Samsung might have pioneered the mirror black look on its TVs...

Just once for firmware updates on mine. It had been in the box sealed for over two years. And I know the CX was still a work in progress for a while...

Really depends on your situation. Is the LG mini-led FALD? Are you in a darker room? Games primarily or office stuff? The speed, blacks, and per pixel light control, it could be a spectacular upgrade especially if you can control the ambient...

I think my settings mostly align. I do go with game mode for everything to minimize input lag. (That said my CX is not used as a TV. Nor even connected to the Internet itself. Tried to make it as raw of a computer monitor as possible.) This...

Yeah, Windows seems fine. SDR slider is great. It's text generated from the TV itself, e.g., changing sources, menus, where I notice unwanted brightness. However, those are relatively brief moments.

Mine's on zero for my personal machine. Still debating on whether to leave it on all the time. Maybe though...

Sweet! I also keep the brightness low when connected to my work machine. Minimal really. However, with RTX HDR this may no longer be the case when it's connected to my personal machine. :) Mine arrived with some bad pixels along the edges. No...

Well, they're definitely bigger on this thing. :) The true blacks are great. And mostly I use a dark mode. However, for Excel, there doesn't seem to be one. At least when I looked before.

To my eyes, in this relatively dim room anyway, 120Hz BFI High + RTX HDR looks amazing on the CX. If I had to buy something else right now then one of the 240 Hz 4K QD-OLEDs. I guess the Asus, which has re-introduced BFI to OLED. Unfortunately...

Impressive displays indeed. Guess I'll be doing a lot more HDR on it. Just got the RTX HDR beta installed. (Along with the requisite Windows 11.)

Heading towards my first anniversary with the CX. It's my main display also. Shows 3356 hours today. Will cross my fingers as to its future longevity. It certainly still seems to me that this display was one of those rare moments when it all came...

Still the IBM Model F AT I posted years back. Just now in its original white case. The caps are mostly from a contemporaneous Model M with certain keys remapped to update it to a more modern layout. Though the left bank of navigation keys is...
