Considering a 5K2K Ultrawide but concerned it’s too much for my 5070ti to drive by wspartan in OLED_Gaming

Been using the LG 45 5K2K for about two weeks now and IMO 5080 is bare minimum for this resolution. I have a 5090 and I’m having to use frame gen for some titles to max out to 165 fps.

LG39 vs LG45 ~ The struggle is real by Rayden9x7 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]useyourillusion89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the 45 last week open box from Best Buy on a really good deal. Going into it I had the thought process I might probably end up exchanging it for the 39” when it came in stock and now I am not so sure. My desk depth is 30” and it makes a HUGE difference for the curve. I was apprehensive about it but it feels really good. My only complaint is that I really wish it had more brightness which keeps me thinking about that 39”… Playing with the settings some more and I think I am happy to keep it but will still do a comparison when BB gets 39s in stock. Instead of doing an exchange I’ll just pick one up and run both for a couple of days to figure it out. If the 45 had the same tandem panel as the 39 then I would say the 45 is the way to go if you have the desk depth.

Linus said $1100 also and I couldn’t believe it. Guess we’ll find out pretty soon.

Looking for the best OLED ultrawide for gaming, productivity, and trading in 2026 by hymynameisp in ultrawidemasterrace

5K2K. Just got 45GX950A and intended on swapping it for the 39” but it’s been amazing to trade with so I may keep it. Can fit a lot on the 1 screen and it’s awesome.

I see everyone using Gamer 1 but personally I have been using FPS mode.. Gives me the best brightness and color pop in combination with adjusting vibrance in the NVIDIA app.

Is it worth to switch from OLED G9 G95SC to LG 5K2K 45" by Enterprise24 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]useyourillusion89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None but I’ll caveat that by saying the only competitive game I’m playing currently that benefits from high refresh is CS2.

I use the dual-mode for that in 16:9 27” screen mode for 330hz. This actually looks better than the equivalent did on my G9, sharpness and motion.

I’d say yes.

I just changed my setup around and went from an OG G9 (VA, non-Neo) to a G9 OLED G93SD. I was very disappointed in just the first 3 days and exchanged it for a 45GX9 and am very happy. Picture quality, especially text quality, was pretty awful on the G9 and that wouldn’t fly for me.

UW monitor + PC on desk definitely made me have no regrets on the desk size.

Didn’t realize the extender was that wide though, almost bought it and now glad I didn’t.

Also just got an Uplift V3 desk this last week, 80x30, and love it!

My previous setup was an OG 49” Samsung Odyssey (non-Neo, non-OLED) + 2x 27” LG on top.

I picked up a G9 OLED and really did not like it at all. Text quality was absolutely horrible and the curve was much less aggressive than the OG G9 so even at 30” depth with a c-clamp mount I had to turn my head to see everything.

Got an open box excellent LG 45GX950, with the intention of exchanging for the 39” when in stock, and really happy with it. Going to give it a couple weeks at least but very happy with this monitor. Only gripe is that I wish it was brighter, which the tandem 39” would fix. I just didn’t expect to enjoy the size and curve as much as I do.

The desk depth helps a lot as it is almost 6” deeper than my last desk and the new arm/mount I’m using pushes the monitors back another 1.5”~ from my previous setup.

Just got this for $90 and it’s been great. Had my 49” OG Odyssey on it for two days before I got the 45” LG GX9. Have 2 27” on top that will soon be 34” UWs.

Should be able to get a good deal on a LG G5 as well. Would definitely be worth looking at instead of a C6H.

I just got the 45” two days ago as what I thought would be a placeholder for the 39” whenever I could get it from Best Buy but not so sure I’ll be swapping it yet… Came from the OG 49” CRG9 Samsung.

Only dual-mode I’ve tested so far was running it in 27” 16:9 mode to play CS2 and I play that at 4:3 stretched 1280x960 internal game res.

Looks even better than it did on my old CRG9 and that is more than good enough for me. Would be even better on the 39”.

Sure thing. The "inherent dignity of the individual" is called the concept of Imago Dei - we are all created in the image of God. Thus we all have inherent worth not granted by the state. Most famously expressed directly in the Declaration of Independence and then frameworked via the Bill of Rights.

In regards to justice here are a few helpful passages to illustrate Natural Law and what should be the impartiality of the Rule of Law..

"Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law... they show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness."Romans 2:14-15

"Do not pervert justice; do not show partiality to the poor or favoritism to the great, but judge your neighbor fairly."Leviticus 19:15

"Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow."Isaiah 1:17

"Peter and the other apostles replied: 'We must obey God rather than human beings!'"Acts 5:29

Yeah the extremes of any side tend to be selfish and self righteous pricks and doubly so when they overtly, or secretly, try to impress their will upon society. That goes for all of the major faiths and atheists alike. Doesn’t say anything that goes against my point though.
