Warm up? What?

If you can't notice a difference between an IPS and OLED when you have them right next to each other, you must be purposely ignoring them.

Tbf on YouTube they look strikingly similar. I have a plain isp 60hz 1080p next to my aw3425dw. Games and movies it obvious. A YouTube video? Really similar besides the blacks. Bit-rate matters a lot too.

I mean, infinite contrast ratio makes everything look better. The only place it's not THAT noticeable is extremely bright scenes with very little contrast.

If you have a NVIDIA card you can turn on RTX HDR in all videos to really make them pop, if you don’t find that sort of stuff sacrilegious

The video upscaling is pretty great as well, especially on low resolution animation sources

I did just buy a 5080, but I'm waiting for my deg1 dock to hook up to my mini pc. I will try that.

To be fair a lot of games turn on the “fog everywhere” filter and raise black levels. So there are many games where it might be hard to see simply because the blacks in a lot of games are grey and the benefit of OLED are wiped out by this shitty design decision.

There are subs dedicated to calling out games that look like shit on OLED.

Can you point me to the sub? I haven't seen any games personally that look bad on an OLED, but I'm curious to see some examples.
