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.

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.

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.
