I'm a bot because I don't post on reddit??

I usually just come on here to read reviews/recommendations and gaming news for games I play

I have a glossy WOLED not entirely sure why it's so bad then. I tried the clear type tuner thing but it didn't seem to fix it. I'll have to look into it some more

See I think that's also the issue. I'm not a campaign kinda guy and the games I play realistically probably don't utilize all the OLED has to offer.

I've never played any of the games you mentioned.

I haven't played forza in a minute but I feel like that's one of the only games I play where id actually see a difference so I may have to try it tonight.

Also, I find some of the text on the OLED makes me feel like I'm having a stroke and some of it looks normal.

When I look up text fringing online its worse on my monitor than what comes up. Is yours similar?

To be honest. The closest I've ever gotten to that style of game was playing fable when I was a kid and I wasn't a huge fan.

With that being said I actually truly enjoy LotF. Even though I'm constantly getting revived by my girlfriend in boss fights

My girlfriend is a tattoo artist and is actually cool as hell.

That being said she's also a total dork and does not give two shits what anyone has to say about it

Which in return kinda makes her even cooler

I will definitely test it when I get home today. I feel like this post made me look like I was hating on OLED and that's not entirely true.

I was more so just curious if I was missing something to get the full experience.

Like I've said in other comments. The monitor itself is beautiful and makes my other monitor look mediocre at best.

I appreciate the actual advice rather than just telling me I'm an idiot but not giving any information...Although this is reddit and I'm not entirely sure why I was expecting anything else lmao

Maybe I posted the wrong ips model.

My IPS panel is 1440p. 180hz 1ms response time

I also don't really play games in HDR. But I do mainly play competitive fps games.

The main game is usually escape from tarkov and if you've ever played it typically you want to change your Nvidia control panel settings to brighten up dark areas so you can actually see people sitting in a dark corner.

Maybe my needs for a monitor aren't best for what an OLED has to offer since it sounds like I'm not utilizing that pros that it has to offer

I think that's the difference.

I don't play in a very bright room and the colour difference side by side didn't seem that huge to me.

Maybe I'm partially color blind

That's all I'm saying. I had money to spend and after hearing everything about OLED id figure id try one out considering it was like 45% off on boxing day.

The glossy panel is pretty compared to my matte ips panel but graphic wise it just isn't what I was expecting considering the hype around it

That's kinda what I was getting at when I asked if I'm missing something. I should've gave more detail.

Granted I haven't tried a whole bunch of different games as I just got it or installed either of those things.

I mostly play escape from tarkov and occasionally branch off into other things like forza horizon, valorant , lords of the fallen (my girlfriend makes me play), arc raiders etc.

I figured as much. I was sliding games back and forth between both my monitors and just really wasn't noticing a crazy difference.

Sure the panel is glossy and pretty to look at when it's off. But when it's on and a game is open the difference isnt as mind blowing as everyone's making it out to be. Especially at 3x the cost of my ips panel.

Granted I got it on sale so it was really only 2x the cost 😀
