@@2Guys1ControllerShow the LG CX has three different options, to prevent you from burn in issues. Pixel Shift: When the screen is ON! It shifts the pixels slightly, only for static images Pixel refresh: That function refreshes the pixels, when the tv is OFF. So don’t unplug your tv, just set it in standby. That function will take about 4 hours to refresh your pixels. The dim function: The TV recognizes static pictures and will dim them to prevent burn in issues. You can leave it on “low”. High doesn’t mean that the image will get even darker, the algorithm works only faster (detection, dimming etc.) when you out it to high, it’s possible that the whole picture get dimmed, so set it to low just like the default options are. All in remember: An OLED panel is affected by the time you display static images over the time. It doesn’t matter, if you play fifa one day for 20 hours.

Since the update, the auto hdr mode recognizes the games that are compatible or not with this mode so no worries and in addition I find that this mode gives new shine to the old games so it's a shame to deactivate it because that gives a Next-Gen version for old games if we deactivate this mode and play an old game we do not see the Next-Gen slap while with this mode we feel a difference, and in addition no problem because since the setting updated the x box recognizes the games which are compatible with this mode, if the games are not compatible it does not activate it. in addition the ps5 does it too and automatically it brings the sdr games to hdr and it's much more beautiful!

There is no magic juice and no fairy dust. As you stated correctly Dynamic Tonemapping brightens up the whole picture and what you lose with it is bright highlights and correct blacks. There is no need for the games to support it. When HGIG is enabled you will set the peak brightness in the game to the real peak brightness of your display (which is around 800nits for lg oleds) and the tonemapping is done by the game. If you really want to use DT in games then I highly suggest you set the peak brightness in games to 4000 nits - as gamemode DT expects this value. My biggest complaint with DT in games is that the dynamic tonemapper does not know what a UI element is, because it is only looking at the whole picture. This can be seen in AC:Valhalla as DT brightens up the UI elements too much. TL;DR: Do what you like most. HGIG is more correct to the original intention of the developers - but some may not like the way it looks :) Grüße aus Leipzig :)

In some games the implementation is a bit off and you can push the slider to a 1000 without getting any clipping.

In PC mode, if you have ALLM such as on the Series X, you can put your tv in Standard mode instead of gaming and you will see those options you mentionned to be greyed out. The reason you need ALLM is to keep the low input lag even in standard mode. Therefore, you will be able to fix the HDR when the gamut is not Wide for some reason in PC mode. I say that but I don't change my hdmi settings, I prefer to stay in gaming and not PC.
I think your English is very good, but I would suggest using a better microphone that eliminates some of the echo. Imo that is what can make you a little hard to understand, the accent is easy to understand but the echo/low dialog quality makes some areas a bit hard to discern. Thanks for the video, I'll be checking out more of yours since my cx will arrive next week! 😊
Thanks for the comment. Back then I just recorded with my phone and no external microphone. Right now I am using a very cheap microphone which is already better. Next week or so I will get a much better camera plus microphone to get to the next level🙂
@@GamingTech-TH-cam i See all tha Videos and you Show that you have the PC Option on the xbox to. Try to set Tage TV on PC Mode and the xbox too. Than maybe you ger the right color 🤔 On the ps5 there was no option to turn it to PC Mode for getting 4:4:4. For Real i dont understand why we have to turn the TV in PC Mode to get 4:4:4. Should it not be Standart for the TV to put out 4:4:4 for watching movies or playing games 🤔
thanks for the information they might fix the HDR in screen and the 120hz via software update hopefully instead of waiting for a ps5 pro and btw i like your accent :)
Pushing 10 bit color in xbox settings is forcing 10 bit color on 8-bit sdr content and you get color banding on home screen and in every sdr game. If the content supports higher bit color it will automaticly switch to it. Menu is 8 bit, same as windows desktop and forcing 10 bit color on it is wrong.
My settings PS5 : RGB Range is full (It allows RGB 12b 4L8) LG CX : Brightness : 47-48 Color : 60 Black Level : Auto/High Hdmi mode I have it setup for PC
Hey dude love your content,dont worry about your english ,im not a native English speaker and i can understand you fine.dont worry about internet whiners...they dont have anything good to say....one question..if you set the ps5 to pc setting in the tv will it have 10bit instead of 8bit?
Hi. Thank you! No PS5 has just 8bit in 4:2:2 , RGB or 4:2:0 in 12 bit but I would not use this format. I will do a video about the PC mode soon and why I would not recommend to set the LG CX to PC mode.
Cracking video explaining all the picture settings... I have the LG 65NANO866NA so I'll be sorting my settings when my PS5 arrives Thursday ! You said about the AMD not being selected ? I have it selected on my PS4 PRO, any difference or I disable it aswell ?
You talking about freesync? You can disable it for PS4 and for PS5 atm. Maybe there will be a update for PS5 in the future for support Freesync and or VRR
only you can help us in this, do you think it is essential to activate the luminance of the logo to avoid burn in? it bothers many gamers because it dim the entire screen
I turned off auto HDR as well, my LG 27UK650-W 27in has a great HDR mode for games that don't support HDR and it makes every SDR game look much better, alot better than auto HDR

What setting should I choose plz help PS: to check all this am using that secret menu on LG TV when press green botton many times.
Hey, on the Xbox first HDR black screen should it be barely visible or totally black? White screen should be completely white according to Xbox right?last thing do you prefer color 55 or 50?
Great video! Does the PC mode work correctly with the Xbox Series X? I read that it correctly allows 4:4:4 output. I know you showed the PS5 during that segment.
@@GamingTech-TH-cam thanks! Your videos are extremely helpful as a new CX owner. One last question. Is the default value for color 55 or 50? I thought it was 50, and wondering if you bumped it up to 55 for more saturated colors for gaming.
@@DerekBove Vincent Teoh from HDTVTest says 54 for the most accurate picture. Unless I misunderstood. But then again 50-55 value is a good range to be in. I change mine depending on the game. I experiment a bit (I own a CX). Happy gaming!
LG OLED B8. It's normal that i don't have ''auto'' on hdmi black levels? Only low or high. I'm on Game picture mode (HDR). Also, it's normal that nothing happens if i switch between Auto, limited and full on ''RGB range'' on Ps5 settings? I remember the screen should become black for a second.
What about that secret menu on LG CX/BX. Should I leave it on bt.2020 or just on auto? If no one knows about it all you gotta do is press “111-3-111” on picture settings mode.
I never understand if the dynamic tone mapping is bettert toset to on/off or HGiG. I don't want to change every time settings for every game, I know some few games support HGiG but are only 2/3 games right now but the point is what is the best setting for this option. I set it to off but in other videos they suggest to activate HGiG, others set tone mapping to on, but in my opinion when dynamic tone mapping is enable the image is so bright and there is not fidelity in game. What is your choice right now after have tried many games on this LG CX? Thanks for your videos
@@GamingTech-TH-cam thanks for the response. I have noted that HGiG with the game that not support this feature decrease the max luminace and the image is more darker, in my opinion the best choice Is set DTM to off, but I will try to make some tests.
Hey, great and very helpful video. Due to the fact that my English is not rather average, I would have two questions for you: I have LG C9, so ycc 442 should be turned off, and the colur depth should be set to 10 bit? I also wanted to ask you if it is possible to run such a menu on C9 to check what signal the TV receives. Thank you in advance for your help :)
Yes, turn off 442 and turn on 10bit. 12bit does not work because the Xbox has just a 40g chip and it will just support 10bit with 4K/HDR. Not sure about the easter egg for the C9. Maybe it is just working on the C10
Hello do by chance know what I am doing wrong? I have a LG CX Oled. I am trying to play Forza Horizon 4 on the new Xbox. I'm thinking I have done something wrong in setting options within the new Xbox. The screen is full screen in the game but the left side of the screen is one way and the right side of the screen is another way leaving a line down the center showing how the screen is full screen but split down the middle? Do you know a fix? Thank you
Great video. I notice that, even if it slightly affects input lag, my image tends to be a bit sharper with Dynamic Contract (medium), Super Resolution On, Sharpness at 25, and a few other settings. Is there a reason for this, in your opinion?
Hi. Of course when you change sharpness to 25 the picture will be sharper. I would recommend 0 but at the end it is importand that you like the picture!
@@GamingTech-TH-cam Thank you! Also--I've noticed that there really isn't much difference between Game mode and PC mode. Funny enough, I thought PC mode actually looked like flatter resolution and more washed out. Has that been the case for you, as well? Auch dein Englisch ist perfekt! Ich habe Freunde in Berlin. Ich verstehe also etwas grundlegendes Deutsch. Vielen Dank!
@@pichaelthompson4022 thanks. I noticed less banding in pc mode recently. But just in one game. Overall pc mode is not a big improvement over game mode
I have the LG CX 65 an the Xbox Seriers X. I have to shut off instant game response as well as HDR. Otherwise they keep launching over an over, causing the screen to shut off an turn back on. I have no idea why it does this.
So you think HGIG is better than dynamic tone ?? I found it made my picture darker is that better? It defiantly looks more natural but what do you guys think?
If i use the trick that you also use (press the green button on remote controller of my LG CX for make appear the window with advance information like VRR...)when I am playing with xbox series x i can see 10 bit colour insted with PS5 i can see 12 bit colour! I have set same settings as yours and i have the same TV. I have set something wrong?
My brother has the CX and when we enable 10bit color we get flickering to black every few seconds. We have it plugged into hdmi port 3 and we have ultra hdmi deep color turned on and we renamed the input to PC. We're using the supplied HDMI 2.1 cable with the Series X. Any idea why we're having this problem?
Hi Darko, so am also having this stuttering issues is it because am using a ps4 pro and not also using hdmi 2.1? The picture quality and graphics looks great but inly while playing the game the motion blur and stuttering is pretty visible to the eye.

Also, sometimes my Dolby Vision checkbox will be grayed out on the series X. Meaning I cannot check the checkbox. Other times the checkbox for VRR will be grayed out on the series X. I don’t understand it. Must be something with the TV settings. If I turn off free sync I can check the Dolby Vision box on the series X. But is that good? I don’t know what causes the VRR checkbox to go gray. TIA
So far it seems demons souls, astros playroom should be played with hgig, and assassins creed with DTM on. Have you tried miles morales yet? I would guess that’s an hgig too?
to date there are many conflicting opinions on this guide I have read everything on this topic there are those who say not to set the pc mode because the games are all created in 4: 2: 2 there are those who say that the black level must be set to low rather than on cars and who vice versa there who says to activate dynamic tone mapping on and who says to put it on hgig you can't find a universal guide I corrected clarifications on this thank you in advance
if you set dynamic tone mapping to on, the Xbox lets say, will be doing one thing in ~HDR and the TV will be trying to do its own thing on top. HGIG is the best option here.
I have the LG CX direcrly plugged in with my PS5. Why do I have HDCP 1.4? Shouldn't I have 2.3? What do I have to do in order tp have HDCP 2.3? Thank you?

Thank you for this. For some reason, putting my RGB settings on the ps5 to Auto puts it on Full (which is different from yours where Auto=Limited). So, in this situation, should I put the RGB setting at Limited and then Black Level to low instead of Auto on the LG CX?
you have same problem as me? On my CX RGB full mixed with high looks grayish to me and to dim once you turn it up looks to bright and there’s a whiteish film, RGB full mixed with low just crush’s blacks, everyone says linmted mixed with low but tha looks same as FULL with HIGH
Hey have you noticed any extra stuttering on 30 fps games on this TV particularly? I've read reports about OLEDs being extra stuttery at 30 fps because their pixel response time is too fast.
This is because the TV is too good for 30fps. I am not kidding. Because a OLED has a almost perfect panel response time it will show you how bad 30fps are. This TV needs 120FPS games to show you what he is capable of!
@@GamingTech-TH-cam Yes I get that but considering I'll be playing quite a few games at 30 fps does it mean it will be too jarring? Compared to say a q90t?

The reason you need ALLM is to keep the low input lag even in standard mode. Therefore, you will be able to fix the HDR when the gamut is not Wide for some reason in PC mode. I say that but I don't change my hdmi settings, I prefer to stay in gaming and not PC.
Thank you!
Your English is great! Keep up the videos! And thanks!
Thank you!
Brilliant video thankyou 👍
I tried settings on my Xbox but games are really dark looking even when it’s sunny
I think your English is very good, but I would suggest using a better microphone that eliminates some of the echo. Imo that is what can make you a little hard to understand, the accent is easy to understand but the echo/low dialog quality makes some areas a bit hard to discern. Thanks for the video, I'll be checking out more of yours since my cx will arrive next week! 😊
Thanks for the comment. Back then I just recorded with my phone and no external microphone. Right now I am using a very cheap microphone which is already better. Next week or so I will get a much better camera plus microphone to get to the next level🙂
@@GamingTech-TH-cam that's awesome! I hope your channel continues to grow
Well done. Very helpful video. Thanks.
You should change the input on your tv from console to pc to enable 4:4:4 chroma sampling! Much better!
Do you really see a difference? I doubt it. And the other thing is with the 'wrong' color in pc mode. I will do a video about this soon
Vincent from HDTV test just put a video out on it! Take a look! th-cam.com/video/5Y9qcXMQg_s/w-d-xo.html
@@GamingTech-TH-cam i See all tha Videos and you Show that you have the PC Option on the xbox to. Try to set Tage TV on PC Mode and the xbox too. Than maybe you ger the right color 🤔
On the ps5 there was no option to turn it to PC Mode for getting 4:4:4.
For Real i dont understand why we have to turn the TV in PC Mode to get 4:4:4.
Should it not be Standart for the TV to put out 4:4:4 for watching movies or playing games 🤔
@@CosmicNutcase I know but he did not mention the wrong colors , did he? Lets see maybe I amwrong
You well lose wide color gamut
thanks for the information they might fix the HDR in screen and the 120hz via software update hopefully instead of waiting for a ps5 pro and btw i like your accent :)
I hope so too
PS5 does support 120Hz, but I agree with u, Sony needs to do a better job at giving us more direct options with our video settings like Xbox.
Yes PS5 supports 120HZ but just in games. I like to have 120HZ even in 60FPS games.
@@GamingTech-TH-cam Makes no sense but ok. If a game doesn't support 120Hz, you're not gonna get 120Hz and ur capped at 60 fps.
Pushing 10 bit color in xbox settings is forcing 10 bit color on 8-bit sdr content and you get color banding on home screen and in every sdr game. If the content supports higher bit color it will automaticly switch to it. Menu is 8 bit, same as windows desktop and forcing 10 bit color on it is wrong.
My settings
PS5 : RGB Range is full (It allows RGB 12b 4L8)
LG CX : Brightness : 47-48
Color : 60
Black Level : Auto/High
Hdmi mode I have it setup for PC
Thanks!
PC mode @PS5 is useless, cuz PS5 cant do 444 chroma.
I changed color gamut to wide, this works better for me
At the end you have to like it. 😎
I prefer wide colour gamut too.
thanks but is there any difference between low-low and high-high color black levels ? in theory high-high so 0-255 is more than 16-235
You can't see a difference
Hey dude love your content,dont worry about your english ,im not a native English speaker and i can understand you fine.dont worry about internet whiners...they dont have anything good to say....one question..if you set the ps5 to pc setting in the tv will it have 10bit instead of 8bit?
Hi. Thank you! No PS5 has just 8bit in 4:2:2 , RGB or 4:2:0 in 12 bit but I would not use this format. I will do a video about the PC mode soon and why I would not recommend to set the LG CX to PC mode.
That VRR option on my lg cx makes my game screen a bit chappy when i'm turning my character to look hard left/right.
i’m new to this all, how would you calibrate HGIG or whatever for a single game? this is my first ever tv
Great work! Please test Demon's Souls and check of there is some issues with black crushes or raised blacks! 😎
Video for Demon's Souls is already work in progress😎
Cracking video explaining all the picture settings... I have the LG 65NANO866NA so I'll be sorting my settings when my PS5 arrives Thursday ! You said about the AMD not being selected ? I have it selected on my PS4 PRO, any difference or I disable it aswell ?
You talking about freesync? You can disable it for PS4 and for PS5 atm. Maybe there will be a update for PS5 in the future for support Freesync and or VRR
@@GamingTech-TH-cam Yes, sorry was on about the Freesync ! Also what button on the controller (LG) brings up that mini box window ?
@@sheennshine7 the green one. You have to press it a couple of times quickly
Great info video
another question - how do I know if a game don't use HGIG ? then turn tone mapping ON, correct? Never off?
DTM should be never off IMO. If a game has several sliders to adjust HDR then most likely it will not support HGiG .
only you can help us in this, do you think it is essential to activate the luminance of the logo to avoid burn in? it bothers many gamers because it dim the entire screen
I turned off auto HDR as well, my LG 27UK650-W 27in has a great HDR mode for games that don't support HDR and it makes every SDR game look much better, alot better than auto HDR
I just want to tell you that content is very explanatory and you have put some knowledge and effort into it. Thank you for that and keep with it.
Do not listen to haters they have nothing to provide. Feedback and criticism are 2 different thinks. And I love your accent. Are you from Germany?

No problem 👍
Hey, on the Xbox first HDR black screen should it be barely visible or totally black? White screen should be completely white according to Xbox right?last thing do you prefer color 55 or 50?
Great video! Does the PC mode work correctly with the Xbox Series X? I read that it correctly allows 4:4:4 output. I know you showed the PS5 during that segment.
Xbox is outputting in RGB 10bit. I highly doubt that yuv4:4:4 is getting me a better picture.
@@GamingTech-TH-cam thanks! Your videos are extremely helpful as a new CX owner. One last question. Is the default value for color 55 or 50? I thought it was 50, and wondering if you bumped it up to 55 for more saturated colors for gaming.
@@DerekBove Vincent Teoh from HDTVTest says 54 for the most accurate picture. Unless I misunderstood. But then again 50-55 value is a good range to be in. I change mine depending on the game. I experiment a bit (I own a CX). Happy gaming!
@@turnt0ff no Vincent said 50 is most accurate
Thank you!
You're welcome!
LG OLED B8. It's normal that i don't have ''auto'' on hdmi black levels? Only low or high. I'm on Game picture mode (HDR). Also, it's normal that nothing happens if i switch between Auto, limited and full on ''RGB range'' on Ps5 settings? I remember the screen should become black for a second.
What about that secret menu on LG CX/BX. Should I leave it on bt.2020 or just on auto? If no one knows about it all you gotta do is press “111-3-111” on picture settings mode.
Why you change now to 65 ? Tell me in my country g1 65 have same price like cx 77 ? What i most to buy ?
I never understand if the dynamic tone mapping is bettert toset to on/off or HGiG.
I don't want to change every time settings for every game, I know some few games support HGiG but are only 2/3 games right now but the point is what is the best setting for this option.
I set it to off but in other videos they suggest to activate HGiG, others set tone mapping to on, but in my opinion when dynamic tone mapping is enable the image is so bright and there is not fidelity in game.
What is your choice right now after have tried many games on this LG CX?
Thanks for your videos
I am using HGiG for everything.
@@GamingTech-TH-cam thanks for the response.
I have noted that HGiG with the game that not support this feature decrease the max luminace and the image is more darker, in my opinion the best choice Is set DTM to off, but I will try to make some tests.
Hey, great and very helpful video. Due to the fact that my English is not rather average, I would have two questions for you: I have LG C9, so ycc 442 should be turned off, and the colur depth should be set to 10 bit? I also wanted to ask you if it is possible to run such a menu on C9 to check what signal the TV receives. Thank you in advance for your help :)
Yes, turn off 442 and turn on 10bit. 12bit does not work because the Xbox has just a 40g chip and it will just support 10bit with 4K/HDR. Not sure about the easter egg for the C9. Maybe it is just working on the C10
@@GamingTech-TH-cam Thanks bro, you're doing a great job. 👍🙂
Perfect 👌
Thanks 😎
Hello do by chance know what I am doing wrong? I have a LG
CX Oled. I am trying to play Forza Horizon 4 on the new Xbox. I'm
thinking I have done something wrong in setting options within the new
Xbox. The screen is full screen in the game but the left side of the
screen is one way and the right side of the screen is another way
leaving a line down the center showing how the screen is full screen but
split down the middle? Do you know a fix? Thank you
Nice 👍
What did you say wouldn't work in 12bit color? ...and why?
Should I have my x.box rgb setting to standard an on my c1 black level on low? Please help thanks
Standard on the Xbox and Auto on the C1
why not black levels on Low? its natural
Black Level are on low by standard. No need to turn it to low.
Kelly. Yeah, Black Level on low is better imo and hdtv test does it too
What about the LG OLED GX? Would they be the same settings??
Great video. I notice that, even if it slightly affects input lag, my image tends to be a bit sharper with Dynamic Contract (medium), Super Resolution On, Sharpness at 25, and a few other settings.
Is there a reason for this, in your opinion?
Hi. Of course when you change sharpness to 25 the picture will be sharper. I would recommend 0 but at the end it is importand that you like the picture!
@@GamingTech-TH-cam Thank you! Also--I've noticed that there really isn't much difference between Game mode and PC mode. Funny enough, I thought PC mode actually looked like flatter resolution and more washed out. Has that been the case for you, as well?
Auch dein Englisch ist perfekt! Ich habe Freunde in Berlin. Ich verstehe also etwas grundlegendes Deutsch. Vielen Dank!
@@pichaelthompson4022 thanks. I noticed less banding in pc mode recently. But just in one game. Overall pc mode is not a big improvement over game mode
Is this still current? Or are there better settings by now with all the updates?
I have the LG CX 65 an the Xbox Seriers X. I have to shut off instant game response as well as HDR. Otherwise they keep launching over an over, causing the screen to shut off an turn back on. I have no idea why it does this.
So you think HGIG is better than dynamic tone ?? I found it made my picture darker is that better? It defiantly looks more natural but what do you guys think?
If i use the trick that you also use (press the green button on remote controller of my LG CX for make appear the window with advance information like VRR...)when I am playing with xbox series x i can see 10 bit colour insted with PS5 i can see 12 bit colour!
I have set same settings as yours and i have the same TV.
I have set something wrong?
Xbox is set to 120Hz? If yes that the difference I would say.
Hallo...my 2. try, plase why you got oled light at 30.
Hi. This was because of recording. My Samsung S9+ had big problems when the screen was too bright. My Oled light is at 100 when I play games.
My brother has the CX and when we enable 10bit color we get flickering to black every few seconds. We have it plugged into hdmi port 3 and we have ultra hdmi deep color turned on and we renamed the input to PC. We're using the supplied HDMI 2.1 cable with the Series X. Any idea why we're having this problem?
Have you tried another HDMI port?
Hi Darko, so am also having this stuttering issues is it because am using a ps4 pro and not also using hdmi 2.1? The picture quality and graphics looks great but inly while playing the game the motion blur and stuttering is pretty visible to the eye.
Hi

Also, sometimes my Dolby Vision checkbox will be grayed out on the series X. Meaning I cannot check the checkbox. Other times the checkbox for VRR will be grayed out on the series X. I don’t understand it. Must be something with the TV settings. If I turn off free sync I can check the Dolby Vision box on the series X. But is that good? I don’t know what causes the VRR checkbox to go gray. TIA
Hello I have to activate the AMD freesync of my lg cx with ps5 or not? Thank you for your answer
On PS5 you have to go into apps and games preferences and select ‘performance’ in order to enable 120hz in games that support it.
Thanks for the tip!
So far it seems demons souls, astros playroom should be played with hgig, and assassins creed with DTM on. Have you tried miles morales yet? I would guess that’s an hgig too?
Miles Morales is my next game on the list. And I am very sure it is HGiG 😉
to date there are many conflicting opinions on this guide I have read everything on this topic there are those who say not to set the pc mode because the games are all created in 4: 2: 2 there are those who say that the black level must be set to low rather than on cars and who vice versa there who says to activate dynamic tone mapping on and who says to put it on hgig you can't find a universal guide I corrected clarifications on this thank you in advance
if you set dynamic tone mapping to on, the Xbox lets say, will be doing one thing in ~HDR and the TV will be trying to do its own thing on top. HGIG is the best option here.
Would you say use dynamic tone mapping off since dtm is too bright and hgig is wrong?
No. DTM on is ok for games which doesn't support HGiG. But if the HDR implementation is bad , SDR is the better choice IMO.
I have the LG CX direcrly plugged in with my PS5. Why do I have HDCP 1.4? Shouldn't I have 2.3? What do I have to do in order tp have HDCP 2.3? Thank you?

Thank you for this. For some reason, putting my RGB settings on the ps5 to Auto puts it on Full (which is different from yours where Auto=Limited). So, in this situation, should I put the RGB setting at Limited and then Black Level to low instead of Auto on the LG CX?
you have same problem as me? On my CX RGB full mixed with high looks grayish to me and to dim once you turn it up looks to bright and there’s a whiteish film, RGB full mixed with low just crush’s blacks, everyone says linmted mixed with low but tha looks same as FULL with HIGH
Hey have you noticed any extra stuttering on 30 fps games on this TV particularly? I've read reports about OLEDs being extra stuttery at 30 fps because their pixel response time is too fast.
This is because the TV is too good for 30fps. I am not kidding. Because a OLED has a almost perfect panel response time it will show you how bad 30fps are. This TV needs 120FPS games to show you what he is capable of!
@@GamingTech-TH-cam Yes I get that but considering I'll be playing quite a few games at 30 fps does it mean it will be too jarring? Compared to say a q90t?

Is it only me ? but I noticed recently that all the big games which I see on TH-cam first in SDR and which looks amazing like ghost of Tsushima or demons souls suddenly when I watch them or play in HDR on my 65 c9 they look bright with pop and all that but the atmosphere and movie like feeling disappear and they start to look more like a “video game” it’s hard to describe but when you play in hdr first for some time and switch back to sdr it looks dull at first... but play in sdr first for some time and then switch to hdr and you might understand what I’m saying...
Same here. If the HDR implementation is crap then SDR is much better. I still game a lot in SDR because HDR is just too bright IMO
@@GamingTech-TH-cam i agree, especially on menus (where they shouldnt have hdr)
120hz still works on PS5, in COD for example, but you need to put the Console in Performance Mode
Yes but I would like to have a 120hz option like in the xbox to use the low input lag even in 60fps games.
