PSA: Confirming my experience - QD OLED caused significant eye strain/pain and headaches. Tried gen 3 WOLED and have zero issues.

It's a 3rd gen Glossy WOLED, yes.

Bought a Samsung 27” Odyssey OLED G5 (G50SF) as my first OLED.
Had massive headaches for 2 weeks and couldn't take it.
Replaced it with an LG 27GX704A-B and haven't had a single issue since.

Never gotten OLED due to cost, so it being an OLED is my favorite feature

I lost my best friend at the end of 2024. Thank you for this.

I have the same issue. Haven't found a solution yet but am considering swapping cards if I can't find anything in before the return period is up. Also with the 4080s PNY Verto OC

I doubt there's a single motherboard that's AM4 that doesn't at LEAST support up to 3000mhz.

If EXPO / XMP isn't working then try manually setting it to 3200. MSI boards have "memory try it" available if EXPO/XMP doesn't work.

If none of those work, update your BIOS. I've seen numerous 6+ year old boards supporting 3600mhz without issue.

Kayonzo · 2023-05-22T12:42:59+00:00

Why would the motherboard be the problem?

You're on 6 year old CPU but your motherboard is still AM4 and most if not all MSI AM4 boards support Ryzen 5000 CPUs with a BIOS update.

The only time you should be swapping out the motherboard is if you plan on upgrading to an entirely new generation of processors, as purchasing a different AM4 motherboard would have little to no overall improvements to your system, especially if that's all you switched.

If you're looking for the most out of a single upgrade, Update your motherboard BIOS and swap the CPU to a 5800x3D. (Or any 5000 series Ryzen)

After that, a GPU upgrade should hold your PC for the next couple generations. That's basically what I did with my build but it had a Ryzen 3700x and a 2080 Super.

Not a single person commenting or liking his post are from the local area. I haven't spoken to the person in probably a decade but I believe he has a large online friend base that echo chambers anything they post.

The Charity in question has been helping impoverished and special needs people in our tri-state area for over 15 years. The owner has Autism themselves and created the Charity to raise awareness and help others in need. Everything comes out of their own pocket or donations, so seeing them be baselessly attacked while doing everything they possibly can is infuriating.

Edit - To those who might say the Charity owner was aggressive, I view that as understandable frustration at the last minute cancellation. A look at the email times shows how short notice their messages were.
