I've been using 42" 4K TVs as my monitor for like 10 years now. 2 years ago I upgraded to an OLED LG A1 and it has been amazing.

For anyone using a TV I recommend using https://github.com/waydabber/BetterDisplay to properly scale the display.




I have a 43" LG 4K TV as my main screen for the last two years, it's great. I'd actually like something just a little bit bigger, 50" maybe?

The trick for me was to wall-mount it and get a deep desk. I prefer to be at least 36" away from it.


Looks great, thank you for sharing. I've been looking for something similar (OLED, for work/gaming) so looked into the one you're using.

> Doesn't support variable refresh rates or HDMI 2.1.

Unfortunately that makes it a deal breaker. The search continues


The C1/C2/C3/C4 do support HDMI 2.1 and VRR.


LG CX series are literally #1 recommendation on almost any article about getting TV for PC gaming and maybe some work, for many years. I don't think OP is honestly looking around.


Have you had issues with image retention? I also like the 43” 4K setup for some things, but these days it seems IPS screens in that size are not as easy to find, I’ve always been wary of OLED due to burn-in
