Product Information

You can use its Picture-by-Picture and Picture-in-Picture modes with either two HDMI sources or a combination of sources connected to HDMI, DisplayPort, or USB-C. Being able to adjust the height honestly would have been nice, especially because Corsair has placed the display’s USB hub and OSD and power buttons on the front of the stand just beneath the panel, just behind the bottom tilt handle. Lastly, OLEDs are prone to burn-in when exposed to the same static elements over time, like if you always leave icons or taskbars on the screen. No real issues here, other than perhaps the software looks a bit limited and basic in design for a modern gaming screen. It doesn't get as bright as the advertised 1,000 nits in HDR with the Color Temperature set to 'Standard', which is the default setting, but setting it to 'Default' makes the screen brighter, as you can see with the results below.

If you fancy a more gentle curve than 800R you can leave the panel in any position between the maximum curve and flat.These cookies handle the collection of information about your use of the content, and combination with previously collected information, used to measure, understand, and report on your usage of the service.

Increasingly, the big question mark over any OLED panel implemented in a desktop gaming monitor involves brightness. The 45WQHD240 features a more traditional monitor-like matte anti-glare coating, as opposed to a glossy panel coating like you’d find on popular OLED TV’s, like for instance the LG 42C2. In the week I had it on my desk, I regularly adjusted it from flat to curved and then back depending on whether I was working, gaming, or watching a movie.

If you were using the screen in a darker room and were careful about the positioning of your light sources, then blacks look very good and as you would hope for from an OLED screen. A great example is the moody bar scene in Cyberpunk 2077, where the neon signs behind the bar do pop against the dark interior. However, it isn't the same as pulse-width modulation like on LED-backlit monitors because it isn't a full screen on and off, and you won't notice this flicker.
