    Question Would you buy a OLED TV for a monitor? Which there of these would you prefer?

    Taskbar. Chrome icon and windows icon is burned in. I have an LG B7. Not very bright - pretty low if anything.

    Question Would you buy a OLED TV for a monitor? Which there of these would you prefer?

    Just for those who are interested - I wouldn't get a OLED TV for regular use. Switch to it for games and what not but for regular use - you will experience burn-in well within a year even with anti-burn-in measures turned on... I know from experience.

    Miele C3 Kona is what I got. Works well...

    Is this heaven? Is it hell? My mind can't process

    I'm at a startup currently. Google and all are what I hope the next place will be. Tired of startups, paying for options, and having to pay AMT on hopes that the stock will actually pay out. That said, who knows. Current stock compensation is $150k per $1b per year (not great - tbh). I know...

    "Lost" Series Finale "The End" Sunday 9-11:30pm NO SPOILERS UNTIL AIRED

    Definitely garbage ending. The final season wasn't great either. On the same level of garbage as Game of Thrones last season and ending though? No. But Lost had the 2000s most garbage ending. Game of Thrones did it for the 2010s. And as with both shows, I don't know if I'll ever rewatch them...

    The CoronaVirus WTF are you doing with yourself while being isolated thread

    Apparently, checking in on old forums. It's gotten bad. But, really, I was trying to find out if any new CPUs were going to be released anytime soon. Thinking of building a new system - still on an i7-4770 from when I was in college... graphics card has been changed out a few times though...

    980 Ti upgrade path

    Wish someone had mentioned this sooner as it would've complicated my decision even more. ;) All well - I bought the 2070 Super. I'll take g-sync and the generally better (in my past experience) drivers. I've had a lot of issues with team red in the past. I've had a 9800 Pro, 6600GT, 8800GTS...

    980 Ti upgrade path

    I get that but I'm really particular about displays. It's why I've been using an OLED TV this entire time instead of my IPS displays that were sitting under my bed. (One of them still is - I got rid of the other. (Dell U2410)) The ability to get pitch dark black levels, no trailing blur, and...

    980 Ti upgrade path

    Bought the Zotac 2070 Super. Did it on their website tho because it showed "in stock" there. $548 poof. Damn taxes. Couldn't justify the $1100 for the 2080 Ti. It's literally double the price. Maybe another time. I'll buy the PG279Q soon. Buying the Asus PG279Q as well. The LG that has been...

    980 Ti upgrade path

    What's this based on? Seems like speculation.

    980 Ti upgrade path

    Well - I'm back for the heat of the moment. I'm looking at getting a new graphics card and monitor. I play a lot of FPS as of late. (Pubg, squad, tarkov, etc.) I've been using my LG B7 for probably over a year straight as my only display for my computer (I know - burn-in bad). I'm burned out on...

    Discussion Is Consumer Reports still a reliable source of information?

    Well, my vacuum was only like "$1000". But, yeah, one would hope. Subzero ain't much different in cost.

    Question Reliable, in-depth Monitor review site?

    TFTCentral (the OG) and RTINGS (the improved gangsta) are the way to go. Only downside is that they don't review literally everything.
