I'd not seen that the B9 could do VRR and supported 2.1 _ I knew it had the same chip from the year before I was not aware they had added 2.1 support to that - so sorry about that.
LG OLED C9 as a PC monitor - Yes, I'm crazy, Yes time to get some burn in.

No problem. I did a lot of research and honestly had the differences been bigger I would have gone C9 myself.
It could be that in the past the differences between the C and B range were bigger and therefore people just have the impression this is always the case.

The 2019 models do too

Yep and all 2019. I got an update on mine a few months back that enabled it. Yet to try it out though. Likely won’t until I get an RTX 3070 in a few months when they come outhttps://www.nvidia.com/en-gb/geforce/news/g-sync-compatible-2019-lg-tv-available-now/

I take it there are no reviews out for the 48" yet?
Soldato
Just pre-ordered. Now to wait and see if the shortage rumours are true and how bad.

Nice. Look forward to see how people find it. Hopefully it all works out and no screen burn issues that way I can pick one up on the next Black Friday.

I'd love a smaller OLED TV/Monitor, but 48" is still way to big 
32" Would be the max I'd want to go for 16:9 or 34" in an Ultrawide OLED

I agree. 32" would be perfect, hell I would even be happy with 40".I'd lover a smaller OLED TV/Monitor, but 48" is still way to big

I tried out 2560x1440 @ 120hz on my C9 and it wasn't too bad considering I was sitting fairly close. On the CX48 it would look a bit better and it means you can switch between 4k and 1440p @ 120hz depending on how demanding the title is

Yup that's a great bonus, esp with the scaling being so good

Indeed, I currently have a LG C7 and it blows any monitor picture quality out the water. I just wish it had VRR support I find it difficult to justify upgrading my current PC monitor until OLED or an equivalent tech comes to the more mainstream monitor size/market

Only thing I can see is LC is light silver stand and LB is dark silver stand, and has 2 freeview/freesat tuners?!

HAd a good look and on the product fiche it shows 5 model numbers for the 48" OLED48CX
3LB
6LB
9LB
5LC
8LC
Would guess different area designations and colours for the same model? But the price difference would suggest something more.
The more expensive one doesn't let google assistant and Alexa spy on you
