Was thinking the same thing! Obviously no G-Sync!
See my post above
#14 for an explainer on how that statement is entirely wrong. Tl;dr: what you're seeing is the camera's shutter speed being significantly slower than the refresh rate of the display (along with some rather fast-paced movement on-screen), not lack of G-sync or on-screen blur.
Yes, I do use it at regular monitor distance. My desk isn't deep enough to sit it back any further. I am waiting on those 34" 200Hz HDR G-Sync screens. I have thought about getting a cheap G-sync screen to hold me over but I like to be able to sit back in my chair put my feet on the desk and still play a controller game without having to squint at a 27" monitor. I used to use a 32" 1080p TV as a monitor as well. I haven't used a real monitor in a long time lol.
OLED Gsync would be a dream but It doesn't sound like it is happening anytime soon and I am tired of waiting. I have seen the Q-LED vs OLED demos at the local store and either OLED looks amazing or they had the QLED panel setup poorly. The blacks on the QLED still looked a bit grayish.
Yes, sitting at this distance with displays this size is ridiculous.
Wow, I kind of admire your dedication to big-screen computing - I would go crazy (and probably need a neck brace within a week) if I used a setup like that. To each their own, I guess. Think I saw a news post that Nvidia said 34" HDR G-sync was coming in Q2 this year, so it's not that far out.
As for OLED, while it's tempting for the looks, sadly burn-in makes it entirely unsuitable for PC use (unless you never, ever have your desktop or taskbar visible, or have apps sitting at the same spot for a long time. There's no compensation tech that can prevent it (unless it were to shift your taskbar icons and any other semi-static imagery around by several inches at frequent intervals), so you'd see significant burn-in in a year or two at the most. In essence, OLED on PC requires a complete redesign of the Windows UI. Nothing can compare to its
actual black black-levels, but VA panels come pretty close (3000:1 contrast ratio, more on great panels). VA with local dimming and sufficient lighting zones should be a decent replacement. QLED does nothing for black levels though, as it's simply a gimmicky brand name for quantum dot coatings on the backlight LEDs to increase colour gamut. Didn't Acer or Asus preview a monitor with something like 100 000:1 or 1M:1 contrast ratio a year or two ago, with a second "dimming" LCD panel behind the picture-generating one, with the sole function of providing per-pixel local dimming? While expensive as all heck and rather inefficient (due to transmission losses through the thicker display stack), it seems like a good compromise.
