Question *Subjective* is OLED actually worth it?

Looks really nice!

One could play a game in a window, browse the internet, have hardware stats running in a corner without cluttering the game window and have a video call open with a buddy at the same time, all at once on that screen. Sweet.

Oh no, the older 3440x1440p is going to be 2nd monitor. 😀
EDIT: 1800R curve is quite nice. The Nixeus Edge 34 IIRC was 1500R. So Maybe for my particular situation the 1500R may have been better.

Side note. Don't have to move head at all. I did have to increase mouse DPI to get from edge to edge in single motion, but it sped up the pointer faster than I prefer.

D4, not 5120x1440p.
BG3 5120x1440p.
POE2 less than D4 WS resolution. Black bars large on each side. Probably 2160x1440p
Elden Ring. No SUW support.
No Rest for the Wicked, full UWS support.
All games showed the 5120x1440p resolution though.

Possibly there are some mods to fix the ones that don't have official support.

Still subjectively worth it. Unless you play in a glass house with no shades. Still would be bright enough tho.

After having this monitor for a while now, I have to say the difference from my IPS has gotten perceivably higher as I've been using it. I can't overstate how much better my experience playing my PS5 on it versus the old IPS panel as well; with VRR and full HDR support, it's a night and day type of difference.

Wow I thought PS5 didn't support VRR at 1440p. Maybe that was just in the first firmware update to support 1440p though.
