LG - 39GX950B

LG just announced a 39 5k2k tandem OLED if that floats your boat. I also have 38” LG and this is the only thing that I’d upgrade to

I own the current 39 and the size is sweet spot. 45 may good too, if you have enough tablen space but ppi on 5k 39 will be better

I'm looking forward to it. I bought an open box 39 inch LG ultrawide, but unfortunately, the monitor was messed up. That turned out to be a good thing, though, because then I saw the asus pg39wcdm on sale brand new for the same price lol so I went with that instead. Hopefully It arrives next week.

I just got the LG39GX950 and am loving it so far too

Worth it for what? I would never go back to 108 PPI (3440x1440 34”) after seeing how crisp text is at 140PPI (4k 32”, 39/40” 5k2k). You can absolutely push high frame rates at 5k2k on a 5080 with DLSS performance mode using preset M/L. I would wait for the 39” LG 5k2k OLED or a variant of that panel using a glossy finish if that’s important to you. If you can’t use OLED, look at the Samsung 40” G75F 5k2k 180Hz VA panel.

LG's new 39" 5K2K OLED is confirmed to support UHBR20.

I'm disappointed too, also it's matte.

That's fair. I tried really hard to like it by "unseeing" the difference but still failed after 2 months, so I had to accept it's not mine. Yes I believe they decided to go matte based on some data, they did change the curve after all. I just belong to the minority, unfortunately.

I have the 39" LG OLED powered by a 5080 and I'm happy with it. I mainly play CS2 and I like playing native. MY 5080 wouldn't be able to run native at any reasonable FPS. I'll hop to 5K in a few generations of GPUs. But I have nothing but good feelings about the 5K2K.... Just not for me right now.

Absolutely. I still love it. I'm sure the extra 6 inches is a game changer but I'll take it for now.

Get the new Oled LG 39.5" 5k2k 140dpi and only 1500R

The 39 inch 5k2k oled will have slightly higher ppi than a 32 inch 4K monitor. It will also be 240hz which at least for me, is approaching end game monitor territory for the foreseeable future.

LG 39GX950B (or some display with a glossy version of that panel if someone does decide to make it), and it's not even close. Finally there's something worthwhile to upgrade to from my 10-year-old 34" 1440p IPS ultrawide. This one finally looks able to do a 50/50 gaming and productivity workload without compromising on either, since everything I tried upgrading to before had one dealbreaker or another. Mini side rant - looks like the industry \*still\* refuses to make a proper 21:9 MiniLED 5k2k IPS monitor, so I decided to just give up waiting on one.

And what exactly makes you say that? Its RGWB subpixel layout is basically RGB stripe with an extra white subpixel in the middle, which even on its own is already infinitely better than the triangular layout of (soon-to-be last gen) QD-OLEDs. Combine that with its high pixel density and I genuinely doubt you'd be able to see any text artifacts without literal pixel peeping.
