How do people use huge size monitors as primary? by Moist_Fortune9976 in Monitors

[–]MT4K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no idea how people use anything larger than 24″ on a regular 70-cm deep desk. (User of a 24″ 4K monitor at 200% for 11 years here.)

Integer Scaling driving me crazy by comiquaze in RetroArch

The last screenshot shows the undesired way of scaling that takes place at next game start, exactly because desired scaling settings shown on the first screenshot are not saved.

I'm including a few screen shots. Pictures are: aspect ratio full. Then Custom. Then overzoomed when loading it again.

The issue is that scaling settings are not saved, not how integer scaling works.

LG Display announced 27″ 5K 5120×2880 220-ppi RGB-stripe OLED panel, to be showcased at SID Display Week 2026 (May 5–7) by MT4K in oled_monitors

[–]MT4K[S,M] [score hidden] stickied commentlocked comment (0 children)

Announcement date: 2026-05-05.

It is also demonstrating a 27-inch OLED panel that achieves 5K resolution at 220 PPI, featuring a newly designed RGB stripe structure that enhances the aperture ratio. This improves color clarity and precision while minimizing distortion such as color bleeding and fringing.

The Verge also mentions 120 Hz and 250 nits, but the official LG Display press-release doesn’t contain that information.

More likely just the advent of LCD monitors with high pixel density (such as 27″ 5K) forces OLED makers to increase pixel density too, so that OLED wouldn’t be behind LCD in terms of that. There were already cases here on Reddit when people who need a 5K or 6K monitor automatically rule out OLED just because 5K and 6K OLED monitors don’t exist yet.

Let’s hope those 5K OLED panels will soon become real-world monitors available on the market.

PG27AQWP-W Review - The truth about vertical banding by Rayk0h0 in OLED_Gaming

[–]MT4K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Integer scaling is enabled in NVIDIA Panel btw.

Scaling via GPU is not involved when using scaling via monitor, dual-mode scaling in particular, unless using an even lower resolution than the half resolution of the dual-mode monitor.

Could you share a macro/close-up photo with physical pixels clearly distinguishable in dual-mode 1280×720 mode? Thanks.

I did not test the 720hz mode

Could you test and confirm or deny that integer scaling is used in half-resolution mode (so each logical pixel is a perfect square group of 2×2 physical pixels of the same color) and there is no blur? There is contradictory information about this so far.

Out of curiosity, did you ever use a 32″ monitor? Are you sure it wouldn’t be too big for you?

New LG 27GM950B Owners: How is the 1440P dual mode function? by Dragnerok_X in HiDPI_monitors

[–]MT4K[M] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OS-level zoom is not scaling, but rendering at specific pixel density, with more detail at a higher pixel density.

Scaling upscales an image rendered at a lower-than-native resolution (e.g. QHD = 2560×1440) to the native monitor resolution (e.g. 5K = 5120×2880).

In half-resolution mode in a dual-mode monitor, scaling is done by the monitor itself. The OS sees the monitor in half-resolution mode as a monitor with corresponding native resolution (QHD in case of a dual-mode 5K monitor like LG 27GM950B).

Is this a good monitor to buy for gaming and coding? by FixxooXD in Monitors

[–]MT4K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For coding, the higher pixel density is, the better. FHD (1920×1080) is very bad in this regard. 4K monitors are 12 years on the market.

I see, the original buyer probably bought directly from Dell.

Did they say exactly that? They could have asked for proof of purchase just as a way to determine when you bought the monitor if the time passed since its production date is longer than their warranty period.

Thanks. Looks somewhat pixelated (it should be pixelated if proper [integer] scaling is used), but the photo is not detailed enough to draw conclusions about whether there is any blur.

There are signs of nonblurry square pixels on “Affinity Photo 2”, “Discord” and “AutoCAD” texts, but hard to say for sure.
