It's the best you can do right now for sure. I've been loving mine even before Linus jumped on the bandwagon (after jumping off and then back on). I knew when he installed that BFGD he was making a mistake he'd have to rectify. But let's be real he will put in his living room whatever someone is paying to do so.

[@jubuttib]

For anyone wanting to get into these, a couple of recommendations: There is almost NO difference between the B9 and the C9 in specs, they have the same image processing and the same input capabilities, and use the same panels. I haven't yet found a single compelling reason to get a C9 instead of a B9, unless you want 77 inches (B9 caps out at 65" in my region at least). The B9 is significantly cheaper (65" model is 1700€ here vs. 1900€ for the C9), and IMO the stand is much, much better (I daily a B7, and had a C7 on loan for a while while a small issue on mine was being taken care of, from what I've seen the stands on both are still the same in the 9 models). The massive metal slab on the C-models eats up way more desktop space, and also reflects stuff on the screen in a distracting way. When connecting to a computer, first things you do are turn on not just Instant Game Response, but also HDMI ULTRA HD Deep Color for your chosen input, and go into the Inputs selection and change the input's "Icon" to PC. Both of these can not only affect what kind of options you get in the display settings on your PC, but usually also reduce input lag compared to other settings, noticeably. In the other settings, you will want to turn all Eco modes, "super resolution", motion enhancement, sharpness exaggerators, dynamic brightness etc. off. The TV looks stunning running without those things, at most those tend to make the image more inconsistent, and at worse they can all increase lag.

[@colinparks619]

C9 deals with micro blocking and black crush better, it has a faster operating system and the E9 has all this and a really good soundbar built in. Owned all 3 and the b9 is a bit worse, not massive amounts but a little bit worse.

[@uzeeinc]

The only real difference is that the B9 is using a slightly older generation processor and it gets firmware updates a bit later so certain fixes to image processing issues or enhancements end up a couple of months later on the B series compared to the C series.

[@ediw4483]

The C9 is also quite a bit brighter, at 700 nits, compared to the 550 nits B9, which is situationally valuable, depending on ambient lighting conditions

[@jubuttib]

@@ediw4483 Hmph, so they've artificially started gimping the B-models. Annoying. The B-models in the past were if anything brighter. =P

[@red2k69]

Linus I commented on this with the older video on the Asus BFG. I will say it again. JUST ENABLE A SECOND MONITOR! (Extended desktop mode, not mirror for ease of compatibility). Connect a second monitor from your graphics card to your A/V receiver and set it as the default audio output. You with then have FULL HD AUDIO and your main display will simply have no audio. STOP USING ARC. You will thank me. P.S. Make sure your using at least 720p on the secondary output to your reciever to allow for HD audio bitstreaming. PROFIT LINUS!

[@Saturn2888]

From my understanding, analog audio is still the best way to avoid audio lag. For my surround sound system and HTPC (also a gaming rig), I've got the 3.5mm jacks on the integrated audio card going to the multi-channel input on my receiver where each channel has its own RCA port. That way I get dedicated surround sound channels and no extra lag display and receiver chaining. 2 places you could experience lag: - PC -> Receiver -> TV for video. - PC -> TV -> Receiver for audio. Going from PC -> TV and PC -> receiver directly in both cases seems to be the best way to have the least input lag. So ASUS having DisplayPort-only on that TV still makes sense especially for gaming rigs (unless your receiver doesn't support multi-channel input).

[@nintendomaniac64]

I don't know if this is still the case for the 2019 OLEDs, but on older models you could set the input label to "PC" and be able to achieve low input lag while still using ISF Expert picture modes.

[@SpecialEDy]

Well, on my 2016 LG OLED, PC cuts it down to 36ms, which dumb people think is too much

[@graeme2539]

If you set the label to PC you actually lose the ability to select ISF on that input. Makes sense now why ISF sent the input lag through the roof, the input was not tagged. But this does bring up one very important detail, since selecting game in the picture type does set the input lag to 13ms anyway. Why on earth would you ever select PC for the input, when I'm watching recorded content it would be nice to have the option of selecting ISF rather than removing the option entirely. I think I'm going to remove the PC tag on my B9 now, thanks for the awesome realization 😆

@raknikmik Optical does in fact support lossless audio, just not for surround sound (I have no idea what audio setup Linus is using). For just plain old stereo optical can do 192KHz 24bit uncompressed LPCM. This also means that TrueHD audio does not matter if you are indeed running stereo since the source device can instead just uncrompress the audio signal on-the-fly to raw LPCM instead for your receiver.

1. This one actually bothers me and I'm really careful about it with my OLED. Games that have a consistent always on HUD I tend to play on my LED downstairs. I've seen a lot of forums of people who don't ever game on it, to people who say they play on it all the time. Rarely do I see actual, video game burn in on these forums (I actually can't recall an instance in which someone has posted burn-in from a specific game being played too long). Sometimes a little image retention and I've also seen posts of people who leave their menu screen up for long periods of time getting it. I think LG is pretty good with their pixel refresher. 2. So bright reflections are hard to deal with in my opinion. When my OLED was downstairs, and the windows were open, dark scenes are hard to watch. I cannot contrast this to a QLED as I haven't seen them in a bright room. I did play all of RE2 on my OLED though and it was awesome, I now have my OLED located in my office, where I have blackout curtains to transform the room into a theater though. Lastly, I can't really comment on 3, but I've watched movies on both (my dad has a QLED) and I prefer my OLED for movies (the perfect black levels are un-matched). Gaming wise though you really do have to weigh that con of running the risk of burn-in. In my honest opinion though, unless you are running them side by side, I think you'll be satisfied with the quality of either for gaming. If you are in a pretty bright room though, you really might want to consider a QLED.

1) There are a ton of burn in tests on KZbin and you would have to set it to max brightness and let it run for weeks at a time. 4) Yes. The anti reflection coating is the best on Samsung. So if you have a living room that is always bright like a football stadium, don't get an oled. But this is the TV of my dreams. I've seen it live. There is nothing like this at the moment. Especially if all you do is Netflix, watch 4k BluRays and gaming on your TV.

[@spikegold9283]

I’m a heavy gamer and even my 10 year old Plasma survived extreme gaming sessions and even 900 plus hours of the same multiplayer games. I upgraded to the C9 without hesitation. LG has excellent software options to reduce the risk of burn in. There is a pixel shift feature, an option to let the AI Auto dim static images like logos or health bars and most important a pixel refresh algorithm that runs in standby after long gaming sessions. The only downside is that you have to keep it plugged in for that and can’t disconnect it to save energy. There is also a difference between burn in and image retention, and true burn in is only a problem in extreme conditions, but it is not impossible. If you want an example for such conditions head over to Rtings and watch their burn in test. LG OLEDs have the best anti glare coatings of any current TV out there, but if you game during the day in a sunlit room you will see your reflection in the TV in dark scenes. That is the price you’ll have to pay for excellent true black levels and OLEDs simply can’t match the extreme brightness of LCD displays, but if you have the money for an oled, blackout curtains shouldn’t break the bank. That said I’m running my C9 at only 50% OLED light brightness in the evening and reflections aren’t a thing even with all my lamps turned on, not even in dark scenes. The C9 doesn’t support freesync but it does offer 120 HZ VRR which works like a charm with the Xbox One X and I suppose any future HDMI 2.1 device will support VRR as well.

I have the 65" model, honestly I'm blown away when I watch movies and shows. Haven't gamed on it yet, not sure if I will. It's absolutely the best TV money can buy. Nothing comes close, and the price is extremely good for something so godly. Don't be scared of the price tag that he shows in this video, it's cheaper, not sure why he shows it at $3.5k. I bought mine for 1.9k retail.

No they wont, they're on clearance until February/March. I bought my C7 in February for $1200 when the C8s were announced in January CES. You will be able to get a 55" C9 for less than $1500 if you shop around between now and march. I'm waiting for the C10 to see if it has anything worthwhile to offer to justify its higher price over the C9, otherwise i'll upgrade the C7 to a C9 and hopefully an HDMI 2.1 GPU will be available by then.

[@beukenboomer604]

I want to get this tv, but I want to see an update to this first. Burn in is a real issue.

[@MarcusAuyrelius]

Beukenboomer no it isn’t. I bought a 77C9 last November from Ebay for crying out loud. I was a little worried about buying it from a so called non authorized dealer. We mainly use it for gaming and watching some tv. I am coming from a 2013 Panasonic 60VT60 which also the main purpose was gaming. That tv I was careful with breaking it in and such. This tv, not so much. I do not worry about static images at all. Don’t be a🦜 .

Picked up the 55" in the Black Friday sale.. Its gorgeous however the firmware available in the UK is lagging behind and the Gsycn doesn't work properly. (Firmware 04.70.05) A word of warming to anyone from the UK, LG straight up told me there is no guarantee we will ever get it :( Edit: Update came through today! Need to test but Nvidia Control panel now says Gsync compatible! I would like to thank anyone who aired their concern to LG. Firmware 4.71.05 Tested.. It works!

[@Morkrah]

This in conjunction with removing the 120hz BFI at the last minute uas left a very bitter taste in my mouth after buying this tv. I saved / lurked for 4 years for a tv like this and now i feel a bit stung by LG at the last minute. Its a beautiful TV but i just cant beleive a word LG says anymore, i may try sony next time around because of this. Heres hoping we do get some updates in the UK. If gsync and 120hz BFI returns then it truely will be a future proof TV for some time. Heres hoping

[@orbitpro]

@@Morkrah I was just amazed they told me they don't have any relationship with the developers so they may do it they may not. You can download the firmware from the American LG site but I don't want to update my UK TV with the American firmware just in case it messes with something.. However ever if LG chooses not to update the TV, I might just give it ago

@@orbitpro yeah i totally agree, ive just lookedat the lg uk site myself and it looks like the firmware is there now for the PLA. I may give it a go this evening, but i agree, it would be nice if it was pushed to the tv's automatically. I myself have been talking to lg about the removal of the 120hz BFI, initially they played ignorant and said that BFI was on the TV. After i explained (prooved i knew what i was talking about) they quickly appologised and 'escalated' my concerns to their engineers for consideration. 🤔
