Of course, it's very nice for games, too...but I'm slightly miffed
about the behavior of my new OLED monitor, since it nags me about
"pixel cleaning" every 8 hours or so. :(
 
The *hell* is "pixel cleaning?" Lol
 
Monitor function where the screen goes black, then the monitor goes
through the pixels and removes residual charge.  Prevents screen
burn-in. Takes about 5.5 minutes.
 
I had no idea the monitor would put me through this, or I'd probably
have bought something that didn't need it.  But hey, other than that:
great monitor. :)

What are your thoughts on text clarity of the PG42UQ?

The text looks crisp to me.  I use anti-aliased fonts that look
typeset, black text on white or beige background.

Also, my eyesight isn't the greatest, so my fonts are probably larger than
most people use on their systems.

I considered going OLED, but it seems to me there is a compromise in
sharpness of text on all OLED monitors that I wasn't okay with, since
productivity takes priority over gaming for me, so I wanted the text
clarity of IPS.

I don't think I've ever had an IPS monitor, so I don't have the
experience to compare it to.

 
I ended up getting an ASUS PG27AQN, which has exceeded all my
expectations, even in the fastest / twitch games.  It's literally the
first time in decades I can say this product is everything I want a
monitor to be.
 
Actually it may be the first time I've ever been able to say that,
since back in the day CRTs were great for games but text sharpness was
never that great.

I hear that.  I had a 17" CRT back in the day that I ran at 1152x864 (IIRC),
on which the text always seemed a bit fuzzy.
