I think all these OLED 240hz Monitors use the same panel? Seems like a decent deal if you can do Click and Collect.
0.95% surcharge on card, PayPal, WeChatPay, AliPay & UnionPay payments.
and for the GPU needed to run it? :(
Is 4070s enough for running this 4k 27" monitor?
Probably not, I think most would recommend at least the 4070 ti super with the extra VRAM
All the 27" QHD 240Hz OLED panels are currently LG, yes, but they're currently up to Gen 2.5 panels on the latest releases.
I think this also has a Matte finish not glossy.
This is the 1st gen of this monitor. The 2nd gen, 27GS95QE has higher brightness. A model with the 2nd gen panel without the rgb lighting on the back of the monitor was released recently, 27GS93QE (currently $899 from some retailers).
27” 4k 240hz OLED panels are coming 2025.
Took me a couple of rereads but I think I understand now, god the naming on LG monitors is a learning curve.
Haha yeah, monitor naming is a nightmare.
The room where I have my PC has many windows, which can cause glare. What do you think the best value OLED high-hz QHD monitor with a matte finish is at the moment?
@YourImag1nat1on: I saw Dell has these refurbished again https://www.dell.com/en-au/outlet/refurbished-alienware-27-3…
@YourImag1nat1on: Can’t go wrong with the AW2725DF, it’s a good monitor. It’s glossy though. The Samsung G6 is the same panel but has a matte coating. The 360Hz version (G60SD) is only available on the Samsung store, it’s been $759.05 before with old monitor trade in. The 240Hz version (G61SD) was released recently and is available from most retailers (it’s currently $849 at Mwave).
Otherwise, the LG monitors with the 2nd gen WOLED panels I mentioned above are just as good.
You might want to Google the difference between QD-OLED (Samsung) and WOLED (LG) panels because there’s pros and cons to both.
This is a great comparison between the 2 panels https://www.rtings.com/monitor/tools/compare/lg-27gs95qe-b-v….
@Boward Woward: Thanks for your help and info, I think I prefer the less grey blacks of the WOLED and the matte finish, but it seems like LG's value is not that great, maybe I'll wait for a good deal.
@YourImag1nat1on: WOLED blacks aren't really less grey unless you're shining a light on the Samsung panel. The Samsung's matte finish was specifically picked to reduce the effect, and in night/low light conditions or bright scenes it's a non-issue.
Go check a 2022 or 2023 edition Samsung OLED TV in a store to see how little impact that has in operation.
@Boward Woward: Samsung has been even lower than that, and their matte approach is far better than the standard LG one.
@jasswolf: To be honest I haven’t seen the G6 or G8 in real life, I’ve only read and watched reviews online. Good to know, thanks.
