didt know some ppl use 42inch as ultra wide monitor

So one huge benefit of 42" C2-C4 woled is that, you can set custom resolution in Nvidia/AMD to 3840×1600 (native resolution of 38" ultrawide) and than set in SW called "Auto-actions": https://github.com/Codectory/AutoActions to start each game you want in that resolution like it was native (and than it can automatically go back to native monitor resolution 3840×2160 after you quit the game), so you don't need to hassle with settings each time at all.
So you literally get the best of both worlds with this. This is such an underrated feature of bigger 42" and only video I could find on this subject is this

been using for sometime. actually wanted to upgrade to 48b4 but found it too big to fit the 'lobang' on my desk.

some advantage
1) size/oled obviously
2) webos if u like using stuff like emby, plex, netflix etc
3) something personal, i love soap opera effect on movies and only tv can motion interpolate my media box....

I'm a ultrawide monitor user, might consider this

i actually size my browser to a ultra wide size and use the top for displays, notifications, only reverting to fullscreen mode when playing games / watching movies.........

dont 48inch need to seat far or at least 90cm away from screen


me will ssrr more on 42inch tv as UW

 

[The_King]

heng ah i was thinking of buying 39inch ultra wide until i saw this tv of turning tv as UW.

not bad for casual user like me, can use 42inch tv as 39inch ultra wide Res. and normal tv if i want to

im about 1.5 arm length from screen....

the whole point is it feels shiok when gaming and watching 4k movies. for browsing and normal productivity mode its a bit straining if i use the whole screen so i size windows to roughly 38 uw or 32 4k depending on use and put notifications / messages on top.......

meanwhile my 42c3 sitting on the floor in a corner since I replaced it with XG32UCWMG.

After hooting 32inch, sitting at one arm length, I don't think I can handle a 42inch. 32 is plentiful big enough for me and I came from Ultrawide screen.

But who knows, maybe I'll get G6 if they come at 42inch

i have a new 32 as my secondary monitor. i cant live with something smaller than that for my main now......

the cheapo lg 32 monitor is actually pretty decent considering its a VA and im not looking at it directly....

Do you plan to get? Even I can get pre order at 2.46k I still find it too expensive for my use case

Got another XG32 update, this one helps with pixel cleaning when your monitor is off (apparently last update is if you turn off then it wont pixel clean, now will). Also I feel the button to turn on the monitor seems vastly improved on the response time.

yup, pre-ordered it. 2.46k is a nice price, how do you get that?
now i need to figure out what to do with the 45GR95QE...
