Yea PC gaming monitors are finally starting to catch up with OLEDs. One of my biggest gripes over the years has been IPS gaming monitors costing nearly twice the amount as OLED TVs while giving you a much worse experience in terms of image quality and HDR. Sure, OLEDs have burn in problems but the cost of IPS monitors were so much that you could buy one OLED TV, use it for 5 years, buy a second OLED tv and still spend less than the price of an IPS 4k gaming monitor.

Now that IPS monitors have come down in price and costing less than OLEDs and we are starting to see MiniLEDs with Quantum Dot layer such as with the Neo G9, it's finally becoming viable to buy 4k PC gaming monitors instead of OLED tvs. MiniLEDs with VA might still not be as good as OLEDs in some respects but it's much easier to recommend them due to the size of the TVs and some weird OLED panel issues that LG has been having. Also the fact that many PC monitors have caught up in other features as well such as having HDMI 2.1.

Hopefully by this time next year, MiniLEDs will come down in price and be offered in reasonably sized monitors. I'd take a 32 inch 4k 144hz miniLED with a panel similar to what Samsung has with their Neo G9 over an OLED... Assuming the scanlines issues and HDR Dynamic mode issues get fixed.
