LG 2024 45GS95QE Ultrawide OLED impression

[@ramirogonzalez7435]

Just got this monitor and I can attest to the image being extremely sharp while gaming. I’ve even gotten extremely close and the sharpness maintains. I was not expecting that

[@docltd8875]

Thank you for your review i mean that tackled my same convern ive been on the fence for ages thinking the ppi in gaming will lead to a softer image but i will now go and purchase thos monitor based on your in depth video thank youv😊

[@ultrawidenexus]

There are many open box you can get good deals due to customers return not from problems but most of the time the ppi realization. GL

Beautiful setup there mate, nice.

[@PhilBaxter]

I read there was a 5K 38" WOLED UW coming next year. That for me will be the next jump, 1440p is fine, but 2160p in an UW would be a pretty nice upgrade, mostly for text rendering. I'm currently on a Samsung G8, which is QD-OLED, and I do really love those QD-OLED colours.

[@ultrawidenexus]

I would love to do a comparison if that is the case

[@spookykid666]

@@ultrawidenexus I wonder how much harder that'd be to drive than a regular 4k monitor. I found trying my girlfriends 1440p monitor I didn't really gain much FPS wise in my games (think they are mostly CPU bound in my system on the games I play) but would be curious on the difference in performance between 4k and the ultrawide with 2160p on a wider screen with more width pixels.

[@ultrawidenexus]

@@spookykid666 at lower resolution, its mainly cpu bound. A 4090 can run 5k pretty well with DLSS and FG but with no RT. I think with a 5090 it will be more capable including RT. Will test both when time comes

[@spookykid666]

@@ultrawidenexus I have a 6800xt gaming x trio and a 5900x cpu undervolted and overclocked and run 120hz 4k no issues on most games with pretty high settings currently. Find it runs better to run my games off ccd1 over ccd0 seems to perform better than using both ccds.

[@geomayorga4031]

I think LG is a great option, but you know that with the Samsung G9 OLED you get great quality colors and for lovers of panoramic screens it is excellent, obviously we must configure it correctly. I also appreciate all the information and help you share with the community, excellent channel, successes.

[@drunkhusband6257]

I gave up on 32:9 displays. The stretching on the edges of the screen was driving me nuts. Games simply aren't programmed correctly for the aspect ratio, and I doubt that will change anytime soon.

[@Thepvpguy128]

Lg is the brightest OLED

[@GODLIKE99KINGZ]

I'm in love with it. I use for productivity also and it's joy seeing all so clear over LG 38GL950G 3800x1600. I don't see DSR in nvidia panel. I'm with Display Port 2.1. I used to see on 38" but not on this monitor. How to get that option back?

[@ultrawidenexus]

In monitor menu under compatibility, take it off DP DSC to DP AV. DSR should appear now. However, hz is max at 144.

[@lucaspoole8866]

I have the LG 45GS96QB-B WHATS BETTER ABOUT MINE whats the difference??

[@ultrawidenexus]

Only difference is yours have built in speakers.

[@Denso481]

Nice review! In the absence of a perfect Ultrawide monitor, my solution for the next best thing was to buy a 48" LG C1 OLED TV and run it with a custom 3840x1620 resolution. You get black bars top and bottom but since they're pitch black, it just blends with the bezels and doesn't bother me at all. The only downside is there is no curve. On the other hand when I play with a controller and lean back away from the screen, having no curve is actually preferable (curve is nice sitting right in front of it, not so much from a distance). Bonus is that I can basically switch between 2160P, 1800P and 1620P depending on which aspect ration I want. Think I'm gonna stick to this setup for the foreseeable future. OLED truly is the gold standard.

[@emotionalintelligence776]

Irrevelent batter as a LG C1 cant be found new and no one buys used oleds, Lol.

[@ultrawidenexus]

Yeah I used the C2 same way on occasion. But I just miss the curve and I don’t play with controller much to sit back too far. Like you said good alternative while you wait

[@cezz1105]

I wonder how this compares to the Samsung oled monitor?

[@axne12]

Alienware has been working hard on their displays!

[@michaellin1393]

What about OLED VRR flicker?

[@ultrawidenexus]

Still have not experience flickering.

[@michaellin1393]

@ultrawidenexus it only happens in dark areas. Games like stalker 2 and cp2077 have noticeable flickering but I have qd OLED so I can't say if woled will have less

[@AlteredLP]

If you could be honest, would you say the monitor is too wide? Do you feel like you need to turn your head side to side too much when you arent gaming?

[@ultrawidenexus]

No because it’s 900r curve. I don’t even turn my head

[@Tbagnbdn]

Perfect for gaming, that's about it. =)

Hi! What about "feature" of last year model where the edges of the screen is noticeably dimmer than in the middle? Could be turned off with CPC setting in service menu, but it always comes back after monitor sleep. Is this a thing on this model too?

Yes.. unfortunately it still revert back after sleep or shutdown

[@davidrodrigues9672]

Great vidéo ! For monitor use only on LG side, would you consider it an upgrade compared to a 42 C4 (or C2) oled tv ? Other way to ask, do you feel the 45 ultragear is worth spending 400€ more than the c4 ? Thanks for your feedback and merry christmas !

[@ultrawidenexus]

The HDR on C4 will be better and much brighter. If you looking for a ultrawide aspect, LG ultragear will be a better upgrade since its more immersive and you can sit closer due to curve. I still have my C2 that i used as an UW for short time but nothing beats a dedicated UW monitor. A TV should be used for that purpose and a dedicated monitor will always be better for PC usage. I've played around with a TV as monitor long enough now that feel its worth it to spend the extra for the 45 ultragear. The only thing you will miss is the brightness from a TV but your eyes will adjust fairly quickly with the lower peak brightness with a oled monitor.

[@lknanml]

Bought one on Black Friday.. Good luck. I have about 100 vertical bands that shows through movies and games. Exhausted all troubleshooting options. It's going to LG for repair as Amazon only offered a refund. It's back to regular price now so couldn't simply order it without paying the difference. First OLED experience and it's not a good one.

[@ultrawidenexus]

@@lknanml you need to do Oled cleaning in settings, try that first will help. It typical for Oled to have banding in grey background until you clean it up

[@Ramallinone]

Yes , it was some banding on my 45gs95qe and after first auto refresh cycle clears out all banding.​@ultrawidenexus

[@zepharus2]

Great video I bought the LG 45GS96QB Basically the same display with usbc and speakers on a different stand. Great mention of the service menu as Ive been looking for a way in. Do you have what settings do what to get a brightness boost? Thanks in advance. you should do a video on this also

[@ultrawidenexus]

In service menu, expand AGING to on if its off. Look for debug module oled at bottom of list. Turn these two options off, CPC and LEA REFRESH. Middle button to save and exit. Enter the contra cheat again to go back to normal menu setting. cheers

[@zepharus2]

For RE4, I believe the reframework uw mod has an option to alleviate that zooming. It’s been awhile, worth looking into. There a fov mod for SH2 but I have not look into. The zooming never have bothered me

There's mods to get rid of the zoom for Re4 on nexus mods. I just played it last week
