    LG 48CX

    Def grabbing that 48” Oled. The 7” reduction from 55” makes it much more manageable. Will probably run it @ 1080 because of the distance away and enjoy the OLED goodness..

    I have a Radeon Vii and many games will preallocate the full 16 GB stack. Good to have

    LG 25UM5x - black sheep of the UWs

    That’s true up until you’re using a 32” 1080P panel or a 75” 4K panel.. each lose a lot of detail in their images. That’s why there’s a certain number of pixels per resolution.. that’s whats deciding how much detail is in the image. The screen size is what determines how those pixels are spread out.

    LG 25UM5x - black sheep of the UWs

    Not much difference in panels amongst anything else out there IPS wise these come straight from LG. The only limiting factor is their dated design language stemming from earlier in the decade. LG is certainly withholding the potential of this panel intentionally as they refreshed it through...

    LG 25UM5x - black sheep of the UWs

    But you guys are not factoring in panel size to the equation. A 3440 x 1440 might have an extra line of pixels, but the advantage would only come into play if the panel was 29” or smaller. Then you would be resolving more details because the pixel spread is much more dense. However because the...

    The world’s first 280Hz monitor has been spotted at a retail site in Taiwan

    I’m still waiting on more 95 hz UWFHD/QHD panels. That’s the sweet spot. 2080 Ti is barely a 100 hz QHD card for instance. I enjoy my 75 hz with pride knowing I’m not bouncing around fidelity because of a 30-140 wide sync range

    LG 25UM5x - black sheep of the UWs

    So you're saying 2 devices with the same PPI spread won't have the same visual quality? Thats not right. A 3440 x 1440 panel does have an extra line of pixels, but that doesn't mean they'll have a better image than someone with a 21" FHD monitor.. Yeah theres more pixels, but thats because the...

    LG 25UM5x - black sheep of the UWs

    back with an updated review: in comparison to my previous CF791 setup. I prefer this one 100x more. I’m a gamer and don’t so much outside of that so this monitor is designed to fulfill that purpose easily. This is why I chose this monitor. I was looking to do 16:9 gaming for this build. Ideally...

    HDMI 2.1 120Hz Adaptive 4K OLED goodness: LG 2019 updates C&D models!

    The best way to setup 55” TVs as gaming monitors would be to put your desk behind a couch. This would give you 4-5’ sitting distance and allow for an audience/chill area. You would have to setup your PC remote from your desk. That’s the biggest drawback, and you’ll be limited to Usb 3.0 hubs

    AOC / LG Quality (Your actual experience)

    I’m using one of LGs smaller 21:9 panels. The 25UM58. The panel technology itself is about 4 years old. However it’s been recently updated with 75 hz native refresh and freesync. It’s barebones so it doesn’t includes a lot of bells and whistles but I’d be damn if it’s not the best experience...

    What Mouse and Keyboard Are You Using Right Now?

    I’m currently using the Razer Turret and Mamba Kit. Expensive, but It performs relatively good. Nice resounding mechanical noises produced from the Razer Greens. I took the Vespula base and used it underneath the keyboard as the keyboard natively designed palmrest is more style than comfort...

    LG 29WK600 ultrawide monitor review

    Awesome review! I might step up to this later on. I’m still enjoying the 25” UW. From the looks of it the only differences is this one is slightly bigger with a more modern housing. LG would kill the game if they could refresh these panels to have 100 hz. I wrote them an email regarding these...

    LG 25UM5x - black sheep of the UWs

    One of the most common arguments I encounter is about size when it comes to this monitor. Which is hard to press on because it’s personal experience. It’s like me lecturing you on how to sit in your car. I can’t do that. However what I can do is offer my honest advice. Usually what’s...

    I am now LCD free

    You gotta sit so far away from it though. back when I was building an 4K/120 hz setup for the emporium displays dropping i had to design my room so that the desk would be behind the couch. although I plan to return to that again I am thankful I did not jump the gun immediately considering how...

    LG 25UM5x - black sheep of the UWs

    As I mentioned in my post above, gaming on a PC is much more intimate than just gaming via a console. For starters it’s much closer and the panels are built for this otherwise monitors would not exist and we would be gaming on small televisions instead - but this is only half true because once...

    LG 25UM5x - black sheep of the UWs

    “It’s too small.” “it’s only 75 hz” ”Its cheap.” “It’s only 1080p” If you google this panel you’ll probably hear those things a lot. In that same sense, let’s look at the season of winter. “It’s too cold.” You’ll hear some say. “The snow is unbearable!” Many will also say. But then you think...

    Most aesthetically appealing Video Cards of All Time?

    Even though I have a hard on for the Radeon Vii, the 2060 wins this easily. The current founder cards are quite remarkable as they are however the 2060 line features power connectors on the posterior of the card. This makes for a completely seamless build and allows the card to be viewed without...
