TN cons:

Labo truly is the patricians platform, the boundaries are endless.

At monitor distances (~18 inches) your eyes are at an angle to the edges of the screen. VA viewing angles suck enough that gamma shift is noticeable at the edges.

Nope.

Enjoy your screen burn in

>no leds at all
your setup fucking SUCKS grandpa

I used to swear by IPS but after a few weeks of owning a TN panel I honestly have gotten used to it and appreciate the lack of backlight bleed.

I just ordered the LG 32GK650F-b. Did I meme myself or is this actually decent? It’s a VA panel, I believe.

>use TN
>game now has no colors

WOOOOOOW

Was going to say they're overpriced but I'm confusing Samsung with LG.

>LG 32GK650F-b
My understanding it uses same panel as in this review tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/lg_32gk850g.htm

If so, looks pretty good.

Just because you don't notice it doesn't mean it's not noticeable. If VA provided across the board better image quality (better blacks/contrast, same color quality as IPS), it'd make IPS obsolete. The fact that you NEVER see professional color critical displays using VA panels ought to tell you something.

Huh ips has black smearing va has more muted colours compared to ips
Ips is also terrible in dark colours.
Tn is beyond garbage no redeemable features apart from 244hz but that will change soon
This.
Va looks better than most oleds Tbqh the contrast is gorgeous also bright as fuck

IPS if you watch movies on your PC. TN if you have a TV.

>The fact that you NEVER see professional color critical displays
Prove it

Reviews shows the color accuracy, bit depth and volume of VA panels just as good or better than IPS

Argument ad populum doesn't work.

Horrible advice ips can't do blacks worth a shit which is what most movies lean on.

The problem is not color accuracy, but color consistency. The fact is colors and gamma on a VA panel are highly angle dependent, which is unacceptable for color critical work.

OLED burn in only happens if you are literally retarded and leave it on one screen for like 2 hours.

See OLED offers everything CRT does with none of the cons.

IPS or VA
anything else is trash
OLED is for tv's

It's not bad on all VA panels and again, this only matters if you're a graphic designer. I think people who are not graphic designers are thinking, "graphic designers use it so the colors are da best xD" but it doesn't work this way.

NICE.

i don't know, literally anything that's not vidya or a movie?

It doesn't take that quick for the burn in to happen to begin with and literally all you have to do is just hide it and unhide it, that's enough to shift the pixels and "reset" the time.

>he doesn't auto-hide his taskbar and use a black background desktop with no icons
top pleb

>just hide your taskbar bro
>just have a black wallpaper bro
>just remember to shuffle your UI around every few hours bro

Yeah truly now I see the ultimate 4k dollar OLED monitor experience.

Black burn in is a thing too.

>just have a black wallpaper bro
>just remember to shuffle your UI around every few hours bro
>remember to take breaks every two hours bro
Those aren't needed at all.
Heck, even turning the monitor on and off counts as pixel shift. So literally all you have to do is just that, turn the monitor on and off every few hours IF you're just sitting on one fucking screen like an imbecile.

I have been using auto hide and no wallpaper or icons my whole life. Auto hide gives you greater screen real estate and if you weren't already using it you're a buffoon. No wallpaper or desktop icons saves RAM and working space. I'm sorry but your unique snowflake "this is who I am" wallpaper and edgelord custom icons has to go.

Pixel shifting algorithms take care of needing to take breaks or shuffle your UI around. There has been no burn in issues demonstrated except under extreme circumstances of display the same static image for hundreds of hours continuously.

'no'

>all these meme monitors
Make way, peasants, patrician choice coming through

Even with pixel shufflers and auto-dimmers consumer OLEDs have suffered image retention and burn in at the 5000 hour mark, which is hardly a good thing considering how much static elements monitor use has, even with hiding the task bar and reducing everything to black. You can avoid this by lowering brightness to ridiculous degrees basically mutilating the contrast selling point which leaves you with a monitor that can only do blacks well and costs maybe 40 times the amount an LCD with now-better colors. Feel free to look into the ASUS PQ22u OLED monitor and rethink the viability of OLED in monitors at this point.

At the standard 120 cd/m2 it should be fine.
It's the people who like their monitors to be like a fucking spotlight beamed into their eyes that will have problems.

I don't dispute this is a problem for OLED but it's getting better and if we can ever get affordable desktop OLED monitors I'd be more than happy to deal with the flaws for the vastly superior performance characteristics.

Pixel shifters won't actually do much except maybe delay burn-in on single pixel-wide elements (e.g. window borders). Any icons or other static elements are much too large for pixel shifting to have any prophylactic effect.

That's again why I said blank desktop. I also frequently taskswitch so any program or game with static content will naturally get refreshed by switching between them. I'm telling you burn-in is a much lesser issue for desktop use if you don't use your monitor like a pleb.

Still using my trusty 32" 1080p VA TV as a monitor that I bought for $250 in 2012. Money well spent.

>if you don't use your monitor like a pleb
What if you spend hours every day doing video or photo editing where the actual contrast edge of the OLED would be extremely useful, but also drastically cuts down on the lifetime due to the very static UI of those programs? Just stop working regularly? Is that a reasonable investment when the monitors cost 30-40 times the equivalent LCDs?

what's the difference between ips and va ?

You're the one using your computer like a teenager. My code editor always has the same border at the same location. Ditto for my window manager's task bar. Of course if you just use your computer for gayming it's less of a problem.

If you spend hours doing editing you're almost certainly switching between programs frequently.

It's cumulative time that matters though, not consecutive time. If you use photoshop or whatever for several hours a day, over a few years that will add up to a couple thousand hours and you might very well start to see some of the UI start to burn-in.

I'm looking to buy a monitor and only TN stuff is really affordable to me. I was wondering if I should put off the purchase to have enough for a 144hz IPS due to the bad feedback on TN but I'm starting to believe it's just a bunch of niggers that think the average person who just wants to play vidya from time to time and read forums actually cares about the finer details in colors.

Attached: 1555193766789.jpg (270x400, 104K)

It's a lot less of a problem with cumulative time. Again if the things were just affordable and available I'd be happy to deal with their flaws in exchange for the benefits.

VR > monitors

>ultimate 4k dollar OLED monitor experience.
Oh fuck that's good kek

>It's a lot less of a problem with cumulative time
Cumulative time is literally the only thing that matters.

Nah, no one is arguing the cost is a good proposition. They have to become affordable first.

If you could choose between a $400 OLED and $400 LCD I bet more people would choose the OLED.

And it's less of a problem because time accumulates slower if the image isn't on the screen all the time. The frequent example given is a taskbar because it's always visible but it's not if you auto-hide it. Same for any element if you taskswitch regularly.

Again, I'm not arguing it's not a problem but I'd be happy to deal with it if OLED's were actually affordable and available. They would be both if we actually had them as an option.

Attached: IMG_20190224_000738904.jpg (4160x3120, 1.73M)

The viewing angles problem with TN, as well as the eye fatigue problem becomes worse and worse with growing monitor sizes though and even more when you're not sitting at couch distances from the screen, if you can't even sit at any angle in front of the screen without the edges discoloring there's a problem.

I went from a 22" TN to 27" IPS and it felt like a huge improvement, now using a 4k 42" IPS and it's great, even more than the viewing angles thing with TN I think the fatigue would become prohibitive at these sizes when the screen takes up 80%+ of your central vision cone. I'd love to have a screen technology with the refresh rates of TN without the drawbacks though, obviously but as it stands I prefer resolution over refresh rates so long as it's 60hz+.

>cad/photoshop
What about vidya?

That's just a shitty IPS screen, any half-decent one doesn't have any perceptible glow at all, I'll take a pic of mine but forgot to charge my phone so not right now.

>144hz 1ms motion blur feels great

No IPS glow is an inherent flaw with the pane technology type. All IPS panels exhibit IPS blow. Some worse than others.

OP's pic is mostly backlight bleed rather than glow.

Technically not quite correct, but in practice this is true. A-TW polarizers reduce IPS glow to practically nothing, but almost no manufacturers use them anymore.

If you have excessive blb just RMA it
damn

Nice Labo setup user.

So I just ordered a 31 inch monitor. Did I go overboard? Too big for a screen fairly close to my face?

>sitting on one fucking screen like an imbecile.

>playing an MMO or RPG
>skill permanently burnt in
just remember to turn off your screen every hour brodude!

I had a japanese IPS monitor that cost like 500 bucks and it had terrible glow even though in reviews it was classfied as ”low-glow” so you’re full of shit.

>Technically not quite correct, but in practice this is true
Actually it's technically completely correct and in practice true for all monitors anyone on this board would be willing to purchase.

If you use an A-TW polarizer you can throw your color critical work argument in the trash.

Am I going to regret buying a $200 TN monitor?

All IPS screens have glow by design, even expensive ones.

>mfw trying to pick a good monitor to upgrade to, but my autism always finds a flaw or it's extremely hard to get/expensive in Canada

Attached: 1525696097482.jpg (600x792, 101K)

Turning your monitor off and on would do literally nothing to prevent burn-in. Cumulative time displaying an image is what causes burn-in, and turning off/changing the image for a few seconds would have absolutely no effect.

I just got some cheap ass 50 inch 4K TV for $200 not really caring about anything else but it turns out it's VA and it looks way better to me than my TN and IPS. It probably depends on how lucky you get and what brand you get, but the lighting bleed I get on my IPS in dark scenes completely kills any other benefit it had.
I'm impressed with VA, but I'm worried about switching my monitor to it because of alleged input lag. Something I can't notice as much on my TV because I play controller games on it. I play shooters at my desk and it might bug me.

Honestly, I’m not sure what the catch is either. I think a new version is releasing soon, so there’s a lot of sales going on. Other than that, I wanna say it’s cheaper because it doesn’t have the G-Sync licensing fees tacked on like the other version. I’m actually not sure if G-sync is a meme or if it really is a lot better than freesync.

The cons of TN and VA are that they are southern states and therefore infested with white trash hillbillies

>IPS glow is an inherent flaw with the pane technology type
True.
>All IPS panels exhibit IPS blow
Not true, because of those few that have A-TW polarizers. So no, it's not "completely correct."

>If you use an A-TW polarizer you can throw your color critical work argument in the trash.
Yet, some very expensive monitors designed for color critical work do use them.

>TN cons:

Many VA panels have 0 frame lag at 144hz and there's negligible input lag difference between the panel types

After going to IPS from tn i say it was worth it

>Not true, because of those few that have A-TW polarizers. So no, it's not "completely correct."
No. IPS Glow is still present it's just changed to a color.
>Yet, some very expensive monitors designed for color critical work do use them.
Very few and their existence doesn't dispute the fact that A-TW polarizer destroys color accuracy.

What makes it better than TN in your opinion? The glow seems like it would annoy me to no end.

You forgot:
>Fuzzy text
>Geometry issues
>Low maximum brightness

I'm glad they're not overpriced or anything. Instantly turned me into a VA guy now. I can't think of any downsides. Maybe the only one is that vertical viewing angles are worse than TN's viewing angles, but I only notice it when I'm walking in the room before I sit on the couch.

What the fuck, I've never had glow that hard. Did you set it to 100% brightness or something? My 8 year old samsung IPS is at 35% (no reason to set it any higher) and there's no glow at all.

I'll take fuzzy text at the benefit of never having to use aliased fonts or anti-aliasing in a game ever again.
Yep the viewing angle thing is a meme unless you're doing some specific color critical work. IPS shouldn't even be in the discussion for anything but color critical work.

buy a better ips retard you only get the glow that bad if you go cheap lmfao

I don't really notice the glow on mine like 90% of the time, i used to had a 16:10 monitor (boomerfag) for like 10 or more years also it's nice that my new monitor supports gsync without problems too i kinda happy i got meme'd into the 21:9

What's a black smearing? Are VA monitors actually worth getting over IPS panels?

>No. IPS Glow is still present it's just changed to a color.
It's not just "changed to a color;" the glow itself is significantly less visible with an A-TW polarizer.

It's something you won't see in a game or movie only when running a test designed specifically to look for it.
You're rewording the fact that IPS glow is still present but changed to a different color. You haven't removed the limitation you've instead changed it to a new limitation as a result of the IPS glow being still present. And now that you've thrown color critical work out the window you may as well switch to A VA panel for vastly superior contrast and black depth.

Going through TN and even IPS, I never knew what the fuck "black" was supposed to be on a display until I got a VA panel. If you've ever felt like you calibrated the shit out of a display, only for it to look great in some game lighting conditions and worse in others, consider VA. As soon as I calibrated it, everything looks perfect all the time.

I don't know how you can live without a dual setup

I'm in the market for a high refresh rate monitor.The idea of paying $700 for a monitor and then getting dead pixels or backlight bleed and not being able to return it scares me a lot, and I've heard those problems are especially bad on the high refresh IPS panels. On the other hand, I currently have a 60Hz IPS monitor and switching to a high refresh TN panel spooks me because what if I end up not liking how it looks? Sadly, the monitors I want to compare aren't available to view in any local stores so I'm just paralyzed with indecision.

I specifically chose a TN over an IPS when I bought my monitor earlier this year, after hours of real research (that means not shitposting for Yea Forums's opinions which are generally biased and wrong). IPS has it's uses, but gaming monitors is not it.

They’re all the same except for HDR plus which attempts to mimic 12 bit color (Dolby Vision). You’re not gonna find any panels capable of producing true 12 bit at this time, so it’s all still a meme. Most HDR is now 10bit, with some still using 8bit.

People tend to forget that it's only possible to view one small portion of the screen truly head-on and that looking out to the edges introduces angles that can change the look of the colors in non-IPS panels.

Firstly, you only have that problem because TN's should never be used in portrait because that goes against how the panels are designed.

Secondly, VA does have shit viewing angles, just not as bad as TN, stand above your VA and look down and you'll notice everything looks more washed out.

Only ever get IPS for portrait you numpty.

This. Monitors are absurdly priced and 80% of them are absolute garbage. I struggled finding one in the $400 range that wasn’t completely shit.

Is it possible to get both a TN and IPS panel in the same model to compare them and then return one for a full refund?

Panel lottery is still a real issue for monitors and TVs. TVs struggle a little less with higher end models, but monitors are a complete toss up. Dead pixels seem to be the norm now and most companies won’t switch it out unless you have a cluster of them.

Is g-sync really that worth it? looking to upgrade to 3440x1440p and all the high end models have it. Also having gsync means that I dont have to use in-game vysnc therefore more framerate, right?

Ultrawides are always marketed as "gaming" products, yet every steam game forum is full of posters asking the devs to fix/improve support for this autistic ratio.
Biggest scam in the monitor industry right now. There's a reason they're so cheap.

>things actually got worse

But of course they did. I sent back like 15 TVs because of dead pixels when i was trying to buy one. I wasn't having any of their "acceptable" bullshit. I saw two different panels in them despite all being the exact same model. This whole business takes huge dump on consumer rights, it's so ridiculous.

gsync always means a $300 dollar price
either get freesync and hope it gets compatible or forget about it.

I'd be fine with the $300 to $500 range

Can oled not look like shit at anything other than a single resolution? Miss me with that gay shit.

Just take the CRTpill and forget about shit like viewing angles, contrast ratio, response time, and resolutions.

>left portrait + curved main

My nigga, I will never sell this Dell, shit has lasted me almost 10 years and still looks great, plus 16:10 is God tier for portrait.

I thankfully lucked out with dead pixels, but got plagued with vertical banding. Did 4 returns before I found one that’s just decent, not even band free.

Just get a gsync compatible one you faggot. It's the same shit, if it's compatible it works exactly the same, hell mine's not even registered as compatible and work perfectly with gsync.

Freesync is now compatible with Nvidia cards as of January.

Freesync is fucking trash. If you drop below 75hz then it fucking leaves terrible ghosting streaks. Gsync compatible is the biggest fucking meme right now.

Show me on the doll where the bad man touched you

I knew Yea Forums was fucking stupid, but literally 5 minutes of google will lead you to TFT and blurbusters

you don't know the context of the image, good job

anti-ghosting without bfi is placebo

Freesync is terrible because it's overdrive settings are locked by the firmware of the monitor. Gsync modulates the frequency as the framerate changes. Most freesync monitors fall apart below 75hz, Gsync doesn't start to have problems til you get sub 15hz

just get a cheap v synch compatibe g synch monitor got mine for 200, 144hz.

Those don't have Ultra Low Motion Blur, that can only be found in panels with G-sync modules.

I have a VA panel monitor. It is glitchy as fuck and had to be RMA'd and for some reason it also refused to connect to a PC that works fine. It stays in the box now.
I have an IPS monitor. I love it.
A decent TN panel isn't horrible either. It really does need calibrating though. But the TN panels will last for years to come. Its hard to fuck it up.

>checked my ips screen in the dark
>no light bleeding
lmao

literally impossible to find a good monitor in canada that isn't expensive as fuck

yes welcome to thoroughly out of date information
blurbuster's articles are NOT reliable if they are more than a few months old

use forums instead, that is where the data is
thanks for taking the time to read and become less ignorant than you are now

welcome to the world of "extended freesync" and "freesync 2", both terrible brandings of superior implementations to gsync

be a sub 144hz cuck if you want

TN is the worst trash. It's why they use TN on calculators.

Enjoy your purple streaks while I wait for a sale.

Mind sharing the model? Looking for a new screen.

overdrive mode says hello

Help me, Yea Forums: PG279QZ or PG278QR?

Overdrive is what causes your purple mess breh

PG279Q

Isn't the QZ the updated version? Is it lacking in some way compared to the original?

>blurbusters
>most freesync monitors fall apart below 75hz
Fuck off, Nvidia cuck

nvidia caved and started supporting freesync so i don't see the point in buying a gsync monitor since they cost $200 more

wtf are you talking about. i have a cheap acer freesync 144hz monitor and theres zero ghosting

>Freesync is fucking trash. If you drop below 75hz then it fucking leaves terrible ghosting streaks
Your monitor is just not gsync compatible then, I've never had this issue with my freesync monitor with gsync.
