So I guess AW3423DW wont work as a gaming/general monitor. Just when they got cheaper this video update drops...

Can confirm, it's absolutely perfect for gaming/general use.

I'm over 4500 hours of use in HDR 1000 80%+ brightness. Lots of browsing/reading/gaming.

Not even a hint of burn in

Quick question abought brightness and HDR 80%+ brightness. Do you run it all the time, even desktop?

How is eye strain? Does it not hurt?

I have Lg 42C2 and run in SDR mode and 20% brightness absolute majority of time, since brightness is way too much for me to be comfortable.

I also run it this low to avoid disruptive ABL auto adjustments, but thats the price for not spending enough to get oled monitor, just oled tv.

Yes, I run it that way all the time.

I never touch my brightness and only ever turn HDR off if I'm remoting into the desktop as the HDR image gets blown out.

I put everything that I can into dark mode, and even use Dark Reader to dark mode everything I can in browser.

Once in a while ABL can be annoying on very large white apps/websites, but it's pretty rare for me.
