Looking at OLED and LG WOLED and Samsung QD-OLED reddits my impression is that LG has way more of reliability blunders and QA blunders. Especially this year Tandem 77 is a uniformity and reliability joke. Wouldn't surprise me if years from now we see massive spike of edge rot issues reported for...

C6 newest firmware review https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4QbpHAX4a2U It looks like LG "fixed" near black issues by copying implementation Samsung's used in 48S90H using the same panel. Maybe a bit better on LG but they pushed the TV much higher luminance so maybe at the same e.g. 100 nits it...

CCFL LCDs were very failure prone and back then we said the same bloody thing that they don't make TVs like they used to.

Found review of my monitor describing my issue exactly https://www.xda-developers.com/msi-mag-271qpx-qd-oled-monitor-review/ Anyone knows if people who designed 271QPX were fired from MSI and new people (or AI) know how to make sRGB mode in gaming monitors? I like how I can disable all dimming...

This Samsung doesn't crush blacks as in cutting near-black levels converting them to pure black but lifts levels kinda converting itself to IPS... one with still great contrast ratio but still IPS-like. If its terrible or not depends on brightness used and also ambient light. I wonder how LG...

Ended up NOT returning this TV. Compared to 3-stack WOLED and QD-OLED it has good cyan levels and therefore colors. Only OLED I can put next to Pioneer Kuro plasma and not laugh at 2008 TV soundly beating new tech. Otherwise panel works best in 120Hz without VRR. VRR at 120Hz when framerate is...

On 360Hz screen the effect is ok but its still nowhere near CRT level of motion sharpness. CRT shows literally zero difference between moving and stationary graphics. I doubt it significantly better at 540Hz. Thankfully if you want to play old consoles the CRT TV are very cheap. They are...

VRR flicker eliminated itself and I have zero idea how and why. Now I run the same Cyberpunk 2077 and it doesn't flicker 🫨 I mean it does when game stutters and very occasionally but it was flicker-fest before. Now its good. Was also good on PS5 in game with fluctuating fps. Tested 165Hz vs...

I can confirm 165Hz mode has a bit worse gradation. Not by much but I did notice some slight anomalies in gradients at some levels of brightness which I haven't seen in 120Hz mode. Might be entirely coincidental and non-existent difference though. I disabled DSC to get integer scaling and I...

I must admit I might overestimated state of VRR implementations of OLEDs. Two of my OLEDs (LG 48GQ900 and MSI 27QPX) have great VRR implementation. Apparently TVs are hardly as good. These photos are from 60fps @ 165Hz at low brightness so worst case for this issue. Still even at 100 brightness...

I tried changing few service menu options but I have not tried any resets yet. I really doubt anything except either fw update or someone figuring out service menu option for VRR can help. As I understand so far no one found how to calibrate VRR compensation on Samsung OLED TVs. Though there is...

Reference image without VRR. Camera isn't great but it should give some idea how game should look like normally. In real life it looks very good, very deep blacks and details nicely fade to black. And this is with VRR Does VRR itself work... technically yes but who even cares if picture...

Picture is worth more than thousand words so... Otherwise other than that it would be a decent monitor. Has Tandem WOLED matte panel and very nice colors. Text looks ok on it. Has also some other issues but compared to this its just nitpicking. There is literally no near-black levels. Just...

Yes, you can get IPS if your don't want burn-in displaying static elements. That is one of the reasons why IPS panels are still around in high end and will be for quite a while.

13600K and 14600K should be safe. They use relatively low clocks, low voltages and don't even support Turbo Boost 3.0
