Anyone using an OLED TV as a monitor?

That ASUS is just what I want, was going to compromise on the LG 32" but I have time. hope you are wrong about the 5k£ which would push me back to LG.

I remember reading about a monitor with similar specs at 60hz is £3k so...


Well I've had some alone time with my CRG9 and really enjoying it. Such a hard decision to make. I'm waiting for my CRG9 to come through. I might just buy a 55inch OLED from costco and try it out to see if it'll actually fit on my desk and be usable. If its not then sadly I'll ditch the idea and potentially just wait it out or a 77 inch price drop on the OLED there.
Also still no word from nvidia or LG on the firmware they announced earlier. I thought it might be here by now or at least have a date pencilled in. The Gsync is really the icing on the cake which makes me feel like the switch to OLED would be worth it.

Such an exciting time now in the monitor world. I swear at native resolution on my CRG9 with Nvidia sharpen, I can honestly say that having a higher resolution isn't the end of the world. I'd much rather have better black levels or proper HDR performance at this stage than a bump in resolution, especially given how weak our graphics cards are relative to the high end screens we now have to pick from.

Sadly at the high end, for us wanting 4k 60hz+, we're going to be forced into another Nvidia upgrade during their next refresh due to HDMI 2.1.
 
I have an LG IPS Nanocell TV.. Although it is much better than the regular LED TVs.... it does produce very good blacks, whites and vivid colours.. It's weakness is the FALD full array local dimming.. There simply isn't enough zones. You can see halo of zones on dark backgrounds and it doesn't quite light the lit sections of the picture in a uniformed away (because the lighting zones are so big, not many of them). This is mostly evident when there is a lot of black background or the scene is very dark. Obviously OLED doesn't have this problem with each pixel being the light source... I'm interested to see how these new Micro-LED TVs will handle this.
