Samsung odyssey g8 issues

[toonsoldier91]

Hi all, I’ve recently bought a g8 ultra wide monitor after not much research 

The screen looks fantastic but I ain’t had time to use it as my pc is currently being built so won’t get that until next week

I’ve been reading loads online about the issues and I want to know is some have been fixed yet?

is the sleep/wake issues fixed? 

also is it best to use the dp cable that come with the screen or a new one or a hdmi cable ?

Hello

To address the issues you're concerned about with the G8 ultra-wide monitor, recent firmware updates have fixed many of the sleep/wake problems experienced by users. It is best to use the included DisplayPort (DP) cable for optimal performance, as it supports higher resolutions and refresh rates compared to HDMI. Always check for updates and review the manufacturer's recommendations for your specific setup.

Thank you for the reply 

I’m guessing when you say many of the sleep wake problems you mean they ain’t 100% fixed but much better ?

is there anything else I should be worried about ? Where can I find the latest versions ? 

also what can I do to prevent burn in? Has a oled tv for 4 years and never had an issue on Xbox. I’m going to hide task bar for one but anything else ? 

any settings I need to keep off or on to run max graphics and hz ?
