LG c9 OLED

[jimjam81]

Hi all

Need some advice, looking at buying the 55” LG c9 this weekend.

Main reason being is for pc gaming as my 4K monitor just died and is out of warranty. But my old Samsung 720p tv is in its way out so thats another justification for splashing 2.5k in this.

Before I pull the trigger however just wondering if anyone else uses this tv for pc gaming and if so what’s the performance like?

I know it’s hdmi 2.1 and my gtx1080ti only support hdmi 2 so would it be more sensible to get the c8 which is 1300 at present, all be it a year older?

Also can these LG tv support gaming at 1440p?

Thanks

Hi guys

Thanks for the feedback so far. I think I will buy the LG c8. Read some feedback here on OLED.

My time on it will probably be split 60% gaming and 40% for tv. No many monitors at the moment are inspiring for me to buy them, the ones that are are similar price to an OLED tv anyway.

The 1k I save on buying older L8 I can put towards a new gfx or cpu upgrade later in year.
