ROG (ASUS) - ROG Swift OLED PG39WCDM

I’m in the same boat pretty much. I saw it used on Amazon for $622 and figured I would give it a go myself. I know the 34inch LG is $800 brand new, but this is still 39inch so even with the lack of reviews and negative reviews I want to get this (used) monitor in front of me and see for myself. In my situation I think making the jump to oled will be so nice that maybe I will just appreciate that idk. Mine arrives Sunday

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.

Honestly, any OLED without forced CPC/LEA is great in my opinion. (That means any non-LG OLED?) Just pick one that fits your needs in terms of refresh rate, resolution, and screen size, ideally from the latest LG or Samsung panel generation. I ended up getting the ASUS PG39WCDM after returning an LG OLED that used the same panel. No real issues so far, aside from the usual VRR gamma flicker and slightly underwhelming brightness on bright scenes. But to be fair, all OLEDs still deal with high-APL dimming and VRR quirks. That said, OLED brightness has improved a lot in the current generation. Give it another 1–2 generations, and I think these issues will be mostly gone.

Not sure if you bought anything yet, but I'm getting: 39" ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG39WCDM - 3440x1440 - 240Hz - OLED - 0.03ms Overall seems very nice with lots of technology to reduce/prevent burn in. ASUS also has a 34" one if 39 is too much. If you did buy something, what did you end up with? And how is your experience? :D

Go with the LG that posterization effect on the ASUS is unforgivable once you see them both side to side.

i have a rog pg39wcdm, it has a 90w usbc and 3 usb ports for the kvm, however i do not recommend it as a productivity monitor, but it shouldn’t be very hard to find my guy.

The only other similar 800r I have found is this: ASUS ROG Swift 39” Ultrawide 800R Curved OLED Gaming Monitor (PG39WCDM) - 21:9 (3440x1440), 240Hz, 0.03ms, G-SYNC Compatible, Custom Heatsink, Smart KVM, 90W USB-C, DisplayWidget, 3 yr Warranty https://a.co/d/7QaQTLG But it appears text fringing could be an issue according to reviews. Even though burn-in is less of a concern these days, another perk is the LG does have pixels shift modes which i never visually notice that I have active, and it does routine cleaning on boot. Not sure what features the ASUS has. Another thing I love and was a selling point is how robust and weighted the metal stand is for the LG. Also looks cooler. 😎 Height adjustment and pivots are super smooth too. Don't seem like they'll degrade anytime soon. The ASUS looks a little wonky for such a big monitor.

RTX 2070 for a while system Asus ROG 3440 X 1440 Seems O K to me but it's the older monitor from 4-5 years ago

I would really advise everyone to play star Citizen on the Samsung Odyssee G9 32/9 OLED! I am playing in 32/9 for 2 years now and before i had the Asus ROG 21/9 for 4 Years. Never had any issues playing hhis or any other game! Working on a lil stronger system tbf ROG 4080Super / 7800x3D / 64gb CL32 DDR5 RAM in Lorville i have around 50ish FPS with clouds on High and in spaceflight 120-140 FPS

The Asus rog is a way better monitor than those ultrawides you selected. I had both the Asus , the Xiaomi and now an G8 ultrawide OLED. In picture quality and response time , the Asus was closer to the OLED than to the Xiaomi. So I would say , yes ultrawide is worth it, but don't cheap out on your choice.

I got both the strix and the Rog ultrawide, both are equally as amazing but I pretty much only use my ultrawide for games. Everything else like YouTube and movies I watch on the strix
