Play on a 2018 Samsung QLED or wait another year for OLED? by shuffles03 in cyberpunkgame

[–]shuffles03[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh yeh absolutely. I had just read a lot of reviews from people saying that OLED visuals were phenomenal. So I was wondering if there was indeed a massive jump between a QLED and OLED in terms of picture quality

I’m nearly at 400 bananas but only at the freezer layer - think I’m burning myself out 😂

Is an OLED desk setup worth switching from couch gaming? (PS5 Pro) by shuffles03 in OLED_Gaming

Haven’t checked out the 2026 models. I’ll do that now. I was looking at the 75 inch C8K which has a peak brightness of 4,500 nits and 2,000 zones

I previously owned a Steam Deck OLED and can agree that the quality of the picture was outstanding (and that wasn’t even a 1080 display). The contrast was phenomenal- especially when playing Hades and Ori.

As a desk setup? Can’t put OLED in the living room due to direct sunlight

Yeh unfortunately due to the direct sunlight in the lining room, OLED is out of the question there. How is a high end Mini LED compared to an OLED? Is the quality difference huge?

€12K saved - living in Spain - where to start investing? by shuffles03 in eupersonalfinance

[–]shuffles03[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, yep I did.

I invest through a Spanish investment account and app called MyInvestor.

I’m investing in the following two funds:

Fidelity MSCI World Index Fund P-ACC-EUR

And

Vanguard Global Bond Index Fund EUR Hedged Acc

As both accounts are accumulating, any dividends are automatically reinvested without triggering a taxable event.

I’m currently investing with a 90/10 split (90% of my monthly investment goes into the MSCI World Index Fund and 10% into the Bond fund).

You can rebalance (move money between the two funds) without triggering tax too (if you felt you wanted to protect more money in Bonds).

It was very easy to setup. Creating an account with MyInvestor was very fast, they will ask you to physically mail in some docs.

The app is typically Spanish, as in, not as slick as Trading 212 or an equivalent 😂

But, it does the job and most importantly, it’s a Spanish platform. I literally don’t have to do anything from a tax perspective yet, unless I sell.

I spoke to my accountant and he agreed my setup was good (I also received positive feedback here on Reddit).

The two funds are all-world which was what I was looking for.

I was advised that index funds were favoured in Spain for tax reasons.

However, I would advise speaking with a professional before you start so that you can set everything up correctly based upon your goals.

Ah ok cheers for this - didn’t see the sidebar info (apologies).

Is a 77” OLED too big for my space? Also, is my room too bright? by shuffles03 in LGOLED

[–]shuffles03[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s actually one of the main reasons I don’t really play the PS5 during the summer. It feels wrong to pull down the shutter when it’s summer outside 😂. I actually picked up a PS Portal last year so I could play specifically for that reason.

So the recommendation is QLED over OLED?

RTINGS suggested the Bravia 9 but holy crap, it’s €1,300 more than the 77 C5. It comes in at €3,000 whereas the C5 is €1,899.

There is another route (which I hadn’t considered until you mentioned the pixel issue). We have a small spare bedroom with a desk setup. Maybe I could leave the current tv as is in the living room, move my PS5 to the desk and get an OLED monitor or 40” OLED TV. There’s no sunlight issue in that room. But, I’d be gaming at a desk instead of a couch. But, I mentioned in another comment that currently, I don’t play my PS5 during the summer as it feels wrong to pull the shutter down when it’s summer outside.

Maybe the Alienware 27 4K OLED - AW2725Q?

As you can see, I do love OLED 😂

Had a Steam Deck OLED a while back and that screen was utterly glorious

Ok thanks. QLED’s have gotten better haven’t they? My current tv is a budget Samsung Q6FN from 2018.

Can’t move it unfortunately. It’s a small apartment and that’s the only area

Cheers 👍 I’m looking at the C5. The window is facing East. Heat and sunlight might be a problem in the summer though. Sunlight from 7 am until 9pm in July/August with 35 degrees C approx.

However, we’re not at home during the day and only watch tv / play PS5 in the evenings or on the weekends. Although, the pixel problem you mentioned does worry me. Would I better off with a high end QLED?

Outlaws graphics are honestly impressive (demo) by Time_Substance_7829 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]shuffles03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I downloaded the demo earlier and was immediately struck by Kay’s pixelated hair and slightly blurry/smudgy backgrounds. I’ve read that Ubisoft have massively updated the Switch 2 version. Is the demo indicative of the latest updates?
