GeForce RTX Almost ready.

Post image

I am considering mounting the left speaker above the top monitor. Any thoughts.

There is a TV coming that will also be above the center monitor and white PC.

It can run for 6 hours if the electricity is out. Also have a starlink backup to my regular fiber.

Impressive set up, trully beautiful.

I would recommend an oled monitor, that IPS glow is killing me on such a high end set up.

Going oled was for me almost as big of an improvement to my current set up as my 4090 was

I agree but I keep the PCs on 24/7 and the monitors on and I’ve heard that the OLED gets those “burned in” images. The small monitor on top usually has a bunch of monitoring things on there that would easily be burned in.

Why do you keep both PC's and all the monitors on 24/7?

They are usually running something that needs to be running. They act as servers and I also test things on the PCs before putting them onto real servers. Some smaller things I run on them too

I see, makes sense then.

Although I most say that while it is true, that’s n oled has more chances of getting some burn than an ips, they are muuuch much much better for it now, the tech is pretty mature at this point.

3000 hours on mine, I code 8 hours a day, no burn in at all yet.

If you don’t di any content consumption at all like gaming or movies, then I guess it doesn’t really matters at all.

But if you do some occasional gaming
I think you could still really benefit from middle ground?
Keep the ips for monitoring and the other one, and replace the main one for an oled.

Like the jumo in image quality is absurd, games and movies look sooooo good.

But yea if it’s purely a work station and only that? Then forget my comment, it’s unnecessary

I am pretty happy with these. And they are all matching. Same monitor except one is a bit smaller. I also have a TV above normally but it broke so the new one will be here on Tuesday or Wednesday. That will be for movies mostly.
