Thanks for these videos. I appreciate that you keep your videos focused on one topic and go medium-deep instead of doing a half hour long video with 10 topics. Thanks again!

So nice that you bring up this about perceived motion blur even if the OLED has near instantaneous pixel respons time! I remember comparing an OLED TV from 2017 with my Plasma TV from 2010 (both at 60 Hz) and thinknig motion blur must be so much better on the OLED with its short pixel response time. Oh, my what a surpsise when motion in games looked so much blurrier on the OLED!

The reading texts bit at the end is an eye opener !

Thank you for the video! :) I find it interesting when you share information about how things work. Keep up the good work!

Looks to me like a lot of people who are on the OLED monitor bandwagon don't realize the sacrifice they are making with (poor) text clarity - due to OLED's lower pixel density. My Asus IPS monitor does 140 PPI. I'm sure as shit not gonna drop down to 96 or even 106 PPI with OLED just to get darker blacks, much as I would love to have darker blacks. My guess is most people don't realize how good text can look at 140 PPI and so don't realize what they are missing with OLED.

@prodigy_xd i would check to see what your cpu and gpu ultilization percentage is when playing and if your gpu isnt using 97% or more then yeah, you are cpu limited. Though it might not be as bad as it seems because the nvidia drivers requires a powerful cpu in order to max out the card (in your case a 4090. It basically wants the cpu to lap the gpu in performance to make sure its powerful enough before maxing out at 100%. Theres many videos showing thats the case when using a 7900xtx in the same rig as the amd card will be ultilized higher (thus yielding higher fps in some games) bc it doesn't have that dumb driver that requires a powerful cpu. So you'll want the fastest cpu to get the most out of the 4090. you seem like a plug-in-play type of guy so I would recommend a 7800X3D with 6400MT/S ddr5 ram and a b650 mobo and if that's too much then your can get a 5800X3D which is the platform I'm currently on. When playing overwatch 2 with everything low except textures high and high anisotropic filtering I get 580fps avg and my gpu (3070ti) is at 98% utilization and my cpu is at 30% utilization. I'm getting a 4090 this weekend and getting the lg 27" 1440p 240hz oled.

@@Tricendo I did some more testing and also observed all cores using RTSS (afterburner). My CPU "main" core is usually at 59%, other cores are at 30% and probably not used by the game. Frequency is 4600mhz stock. GPU is not maxed with Ultra details and DLSS Quality. Hovers around 70%. When i disable DLSS the GPU uses 97% and is "voltage limited". So it can't even rasterize "CoD Ultra in non-4k" with more than 160FPS. Not saying it should, but i don't find CoD visually that impressive that i shouldn't be able to reach more. What is dragging down FPS the most in CoD is when you set Textures to HIGH. There is something in there that kills the performance. All while they don't look much better than NORMAL. When i then turn down settings to medium-ish (textures and shadow to normal, no AO, medium AA, no Physics/Weather/Water etc.. what you could call "competitive settings") i also get the GPU usage down to 70% - but without upscaling. Pure rasterization and doesn't look much worse. Then i also get back to the 200 realm, however, i never get above 210. and during all theses multiplayer tests my CPU was not once under pressure. hmmm.. that's why i said in my first comment that CoD engine "is miles behind modern competitive games". It probably isn't made with 240hz in mind. I guess they are happy when it can push 120 on a 4K Console and dont optimized much more beyond that.

All your calibratied SDR settings carry over when HDR is on or active. If your using an HDMI cable to connect to your devices and receiving black crush/ too dark when using HDR. Turn off HDR> in SDR picture settings turn your HDMI level to high (not low) turn back on HDR and restart your game app. Everything should be fix. This isn’t an option when using DP.

Backlight strobing is a game changer. It essentially eliminates motion blur and you see perfectly clear frames. The only downside is the reduced brightness.

yea but the pg27aqn with ULMB 2 enabled is still brighter than the lg oled 240hz at max brightness

Which 27inch 2k resolution monitor has the best blacks and viewing angles? . 144hz+ must be

Very Informative Video!

Are you sticking with your LG as the main monitor, or the ASUS? I went with the LG for the cleaner look/no RGB gaming logo - one of the design choices you referenced. I've had a great experience with mine so far. I game in a room with the lights on and have 0 issues with the brightness. I don't have much natural light, but otherwise you wouldn't say I'm in a well lit room. Closing in on 900 hours of screen time, no signs of burn in. I do have a pure black background, so some of those hours are effectively 'off' - but for the most part, playing at close to max brightness (90) quite a bit of HDR use (vast majority of those 900 hours are with it on) What was MOST surprising to me after seeing it in the store in person, was how little the subpixel layout issue is for text. I literally left the store after seeing it and said it's not a viable option - I don't only watch content and play games on my computer. From the day I got it home, I never had any issues - or I just adjusted instantly. I'm probably 18-24 inches away - and when I was at the store looking at it, I was more like 7-10 inches away(shorter table/desk + looking closely). I would not choose this type of monitor if I was primarily working with text, but it is perfectly suitable for web browsing and reading things like that. (I actually have an LCD right next to it and when I lean in, I can see the difference but it's still slight. From my normal sitting position, it's no where near as noticeable if at all)

There many LCD panels with RBG layouts Though not well supported, subpixel rendering can be better optimized, and I hope that MS will update cleartype with various subpixel layouts in near future

I bought the 1440p LG monitor after your last video (i was playing with the thought before that) and I'm in love with that thing. The monitor is just great (I actually like that it is not glossy, i don't want to see my reflection while gaming). I was just stunned after switching it on the first time.

Really great comparison thank you

Imagine the Asus with Zowie's BFI.

Thank you for this! Legit just cancelled my pre-order of the 360hz Asus to the OLED (even though the OLED was $200 more here in Australia) your gaming style is exactly like mine and this really helped me decide

Great video. I only wish you added some annotation on the screenshots demoing ghosting to guide to where it's visible.

out of curiosity because my streaming setup is weird, are you splitting the signal to the two monitors for the comparison or using two different outputs from the video card and having OS or the nvidia control panel clone the outputs?

Could you give an update regarding Microsoft's update to cleartype to support RBG pixel layout monitors?

Did they announce something for that? That would be game changer.

@9:30 biggest reason I'll stick with my IPS. If you have 20/20 or better near vision you'll definitely notice the weird color fringing on text and get annoying. Also, annoying issues with ABL and using it as desktop monitor to display white backgrounds for long periods of time like spreadsheets other applications that don't support dark mode or themes.

can't you disable subpixel rendering on windows? it's not an issue on other operating systems like linux or macos

@@budbin With a 3rd party app you can set ClearType to greyscale, but font rendering is pretty bad then. It used to be good until XP, but from Vista/7 onwards it looks awful (I guess that's why MS removed the option). Not all applications honor this setting, so you'll still get subpixel rendering in some apps. It's also a system wide setting, it can't be configured per monitor (which sucks if you have an RGB and an BGR monitor).

I watched your video, I might've missed it because there's no stamps... but what's the difference in input lag between these two monitors?

You kind of looked like tech Tom Scott in this video. Great video as always!

One thing that you (and many other outlets) fail to mention about OLED is the flicker. Where the only advice given to get rid of it is to either disable G-Sync or limit your frame rate.

Great review. Can you explain how they have 'extremely good HDR' when their max brightness is only 248 nits or whatever? I thought the higher tiers of HDR relied on the monitor being able to go pretty bright.

Peak brightness matters for HDR, not whatever the monitor maxes out at in SDR

@Cuthalu

Жыл бұрын

The peak brightness isn't 248 nits on HDR, it's much higher. Also, HDR requires good contrast even more than high peak brightness - high brightness doesn't do you any good if your "black" is bright grey. Major additional benefit of HDR is that is has far more image information: better colors, more nuance on lightning etc.

@phantomflame0658

For HDR to make sense you need to be in a dark environment. It's all about the contract between zero blacks, and shiny whites that pop out at you plus the more realistic colour pallette. 250 nits is already quite bright but when there's for example a flash or reflection off a puddle on my LG 42 C3 it gets up to like 700 nits. For bright viewing you should be running SDR with calibrated settings.

thanks for that review!!!

Glossy screens when? That is something keeping me from diving in.

I game on an ACER Nitro 165hz 1080p IPS display and it's pretty satisfying to me. That subpixel issue with the OLED for reading text is gonna be more bothersome in my overall display experience. So, I guess IPS is right for me this time

Amazing review. You are singlehandedly the reason I’m getting the asus oled. I’ve been all over Reddit and KZread trying to decide what to buy. You’re video made it clear to me

That Oled monitor looks like an awesome treat. I somewhat recently went from an old Acer 144hz VA-Panel Monitor to an AOC IPS Panel 165hz GSync. 3 weeks in and i was still talking about how awesome that IPS Panel looks and how nice that monitor is lol ( both 1080p ). Can only imagine the beauty of OLED. One Day..one day. :D
