That could be just a really boring film.

Just wait until the 3080ti launches, it'll be perfect for this screen.

Shouldn't be long now.

That's if we see a 3080 TI released, the US is not out of lockdown just yet!

LG 48X in the house.

Wall mounted that puppy she runs like a beaut at 4K 120hz with 3090 and Gsync.

Tnx god i didnt go for the radeon series as the infinity cache and 4k dont mix too well.

What wall mount are you / people using for this beast?

I've ordered one from QVC as my Philips BDM has just finally gone pop.

I have a LG CX and and have a ultra-wide 3440x1440p monitor. I have my RTX 3070 hook up through display port. I want to hook up my LG CX with the same card. Can I use both monitor and TV? I would like use my LG CX for gaming some times and others times I like the monitor? How do I hook up both so I can switch between them?

I have a HDMI 2.1 cable, I just need to know how to hook it up and how to switch between LG CX and my Ultra-Wide?

Cheers

UW plugged into DP
CX plugged into HDMI

Go to Windows display properties and tell it to extend these displays

Normally a game will display on the primary monitor. If you want a game that runs fullscreen on the other monitor you should set that as the primary monitor.
If the game runs Windowed then you should be able to just drag it across.

Few games let you choose the monitor to output to I find, so in most cases you would need to set the the primary monitor to the CX.

Ok thanks everyone will give it a try. Cheers

Switch the UW monitor off by the little power switch on the monitor.

Ok cheers mate

Simon Belmont · 12 Apr 2021 at 20:44

It worked great and in HDR. But NV control panel would only do 60hz???

My xbox one controller has a slight delay because the dongle is farther away. Maybe use a long usb cable to extended the dongle for closer to the TV.
