    LG 32GS95UE – OLED 31.5″ with 4K @ 240Hz and 1080p @ 480Hz Support - The death knell of LCD panels

    For those that have both a qd oled and the lg, which one will you keep? As mentioned I cancelled my order (thinking it will be discounted soon) and ended up placing an order for the dell (partially as I had a bit of credit with them to be used and it was on sale, again). Curve doesn’t bother...

    LG 32GS95UE – OLED 31.5″ with 4K @ 240Hz and 1080p @ 480Hz Support - The death knell of LCD panels

    Ended up cancelling the order. Will wait till I can check out the competition properly/in person. I'm also not convinced going back to 16:9 is what I really want... those high res 40" UW displays are what I'm really after!

    LG 32GS95UE – OLED 31.5″ with 4K @ 240Hz and 1080p @ 480Hz Support - The death knell of LCD panels

    Ordered one of these as haven't really been satisfied with my Alienware 34 oled and feel like its time to move to 4k for gaming. RIP my 4070TI. The QD's are roughly the same price in Australia (bout 2k, although the Dell went on sale for about 1500 recently). For those that have it, will...

    Alienware AW3225QF 32" 4K 240 Hz OLED

    Anyone come from one of the AW 34's? I've had mine for little over a year and tbqh I have never been that impressed by it - games look great of course but I found it to be a downgrade in most other things (I was coming from one of the 38 LG IPS panels). I've recently started using an older...

    7800X3D will be an utter failure of a CPU

    Wow, glad I started reading this thread. I was actually looking at upgrading my AM4 system (5600x) going to a 7800x3d for Stellaris/Clausewitz games. Now I'm not so sure... Interesting read nonetheless, as other people have mentioned it's really niche to even see anyone do any benchmarking...

    42" OLED MASTER THREAD

    Yeah - that's pretty much the main reason that's putting me off this. The 38's are a perfect size and very good for my productivity. Putting work stuff on another monitor wont really work for me, sadly.

    42" OLED MASTER THREAD

    For those that have come from one of the UW 38's, what's your experience been like? I WFH a lot so a bit unsure (IT, so RDP sessions, spreadsheets, Teams etc) I did do a 43 at one stage but found it a bit big. The 38 is a perfect size for me, but have a slightly better desk setup now so...

    Dell Alienware AW3423DW 34″ QD-OLED 175Hz (3440 x 1440)

    I'm tempted to flick my LG 38 for this. I love the extra real estate, but I've been drooling over an OLED as my main display for a while.. Problem is I'll take an absolute bath on my LG. Decisions..

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    Hi guys, Have my Dancase in transit and am going with some recycled gear from my old build and some new gear. Have a Asus stix 470, and will be populating that with a Ryzen 1700 from another machine (unless a decent deal comes up on a 2600 in the next few days). I'm also recycling a 1080ti FE...

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    I'm interested in this too. I've already ordered the l9a but as it's pretty hot where I live I think I'm going to need all the help I can get Also, what was the deal with the USB type C front port up module? Just a rumour or something promised?

    Thoughts on first gen E5-2670

    Historical reasons mainly. I had been running nappit with a raid card presented through to nappit via IOMMU up until about 3 months ago (originally I wanted ZFS served out of a VM). That system was pretty limited RAM wise and obviously I couldn't cluster it with my new Intel system (Natex dual...

    Thoughts on first gen E5-2670

    Melbourne represent, I'm from there as well! I'm running 3 of these 2670s and have a very similar setup in a Fractal XL with the Natex offering, which I'm using for my home ESX lab. I've found the be quiet coolers to be great and have put them in some other builds now too. Unfortunately (and...

    Upgrade from an R9 290?

    I went from a 290 to a 980ti @3440x1440. Mostly happy with it but will be jumping back to AMD once Vega hits I think (provided performance is good). The 980TI is fine for the most part (I've had it for about a year) but do think it was quite expensive at the time.

    Crossover 434k & 494k 4k: PWM Free 3840x2160 Glossy AH- IPS with Free Sync

    I have this monitor too. I really like it, but have relegated it to my couch monitor as I was straining my neck too much looking from side to side (went back to using a Dell 3415W). I think it if my desk setup was a bit better I wouldn't have had the problem. Do you think this uses the same...

    Thoughts on first gen E5-2670

    Yes, I have a s2600cp with 2 2670's and 128GB. It runs ESX 6 very well, no complaints so far!
