The ULTIMATE PC Gaming Monitor

I was thinking, what is the Ultimate PC Gaming Monitor?

 

It's not the Curved IPS LED 21:9 monitors, they have too much light-bleed. I mean they're good - 21:9 is the best aspect ratio, but contrast ratio is poor due to back-lighting. In Star Citizen, looking at the blackness of space, it's not black at all, it's more of a grayish back-light of the LEDs brightly illuminating the back of my LG34UM95.

 

OLED has no back-lighting. The contrast ratio is literally infinity. Which brings me to this thought...

 

Imagine you're in the Obutto r3volution gaming cockpit, you're playing Star Citizen, HOTAS at your hands, and in front of you is a 55" 4k OLED curved screen running at a full 60Hz. Each pixel is individually self-lit, blacks are infinitely black, the curved 4k screen is huge in front of you - YOU ARE IN SPACE.

 

So is the LG 55EG9600 55" Curved OLED 4K tv the ULTIMATE Gaming Monitor? I'd like Linus to test it because none of us could afford to try it!

Sees price. Exits out of,page.

They should make a 34-40inch ones that like um $1500-$2000. Still very expensive but much more affordable.

Perfect for me would be OLED 3440:1440 34' (because I don't want or need the extra pixels at this size, which I don't want larger than anyways) G-sync, sub 10 ms input lag (lol good luck), 100+ hz, and obviously it has to have display port input. HDMI is so 2005.

60hz isn't ultimate.

Ultimate monitor is above 3440x1440, OLED, 144hz, thin bezels, G/Free-Sync, A small curve.

I agree completely. But it doesn't exist and isn't likely to exist any time soon. So this is the only viable OLED solution that can do 4k at 60Hz with HDMI 2.0. It's not perfect, but is it the ultimate today? Money no object, of course.

Fuck 16:9 4k OLED when everything else on my list is soon to be available anyways. (predator x34)

Still LED back-lit. We'll see what the lightbleed is on the predator but I'll bet it's the same as the LGs.

 

My TV is OLED, my phone is OLED, why not my monitor? How is this still not a thing?

I would be fine with that but with 75 or 90Hz :3
