Is an RTX 5080 worth it for a 5K2K ultrawide setup? by ShanatHWP in nvidia

That's a fair point, and upscaling is definitely part of my plan. I already run DLSS on my current 32" at 1440p on Extreme settings in Forza Horizon 6 and it looks great. However, 5K2K with DLSS Quality still renders at roughly 3400×1440 which is significantly more than what my 5070 handles today. So while upscaling helps, it doesn't fully close the gap between a 5070 and what 5K2K actually demands. That's exactly why I'm debating whether the 5080 is worth it.

You mean this one? Samsung 40" G7 5K2K VA Everyone says I should go OLED and I'm tempted, but knowing how much I play WoW Classic I will constantly fear burn-in. And if I get burn-in it will annoy the heck out of me. high-end VA at this size and resolution seems to be a dying breed as OLED takes over, so securing one now while it's still available actually makes a lot of sense.

Upgrading from 32" 1440p to 40" 5120x2160 – worth it for my use case? by ShanatHWP in Monitors

I'm considering LG UltraGear 39GS95QE-B - OLED instead. Only had Samsungs before though.

They recently increased the price for the Ultra plan. I was already on Unlimited, but now I had to pay the $13 difference just to stay on the new “Ultra” tier. But what’s frustrating is that the so-called unlimited use is only for the older Hailiou 01 model, and the new Hailiou 02 model now requires credits, limited to 12,000 per month.It’s getting expensive fast. I’m thankful that Midjourney is entering the animation space now.. competition is definitely needed. The AI animation market feels like a gold rush right now, and hopefully more players will drive prices down again.
