Be careful with IPS too.

  • I would suggest Acer Predator X34 V3 34 inch Mini-LED It handles dark scenes better without the burn-in paranoia.

  • Watch out for OLED burn-in if you pause games often.
  • Go with a high-refresh IPS from Gigabyte to avoid the lottery issues you mentioned.

Did the same thing on mine and its been solid ever since.

I would suggest the LG 34GP950G-B 34-Inch UltraGear QHD Nano IPS because it is way safer long-term.

I want that super wide immersive vibe but I'm stuck between two main choices right now. My desk is one of those smaller IKEA ones so I cant go crazy with a 49 inch super ultrawide even though they look cool. My budget is pretty firm at $900 tops since I still gotta pay rent too.

    I'm currently looking at these:


    • Alienware AW3423DWF

    • LG 34GP950G-B

    • Samsung Odyssey G8

    The Alienware looks sick because everyone says the OLED blacks are insane for dark dungeon scenes but I'm super paranoid about burn-in since I leave games paused for way too long sometimes while I go grab food. The LG seems like a safer bet with the IPS panel but I hate backlight bleed and I've heard it can be a total lottery with those screens. I'm trying to pull the trigger by next Friday so I can have it ready for a long weekend of gaming. Which one is actually gonna give me that wow factor for single player RPGs without breaking my heart a year later?
