anyone know if oled monitors are still prone to image burn like some of the LG/Sony OLED's were?? i have a sony OLED and it has slight burn in from my family leaving it on a still image. if so i feel like games like TF2 where the hud is never moving often could burn in if you use it for a looooooong time probs super rare but still freaks me out.

guy is a chud but here he is abusing the panel as much as he can through "normal" use to deliberately cause permanent burn in, hes not had any change in a month. i think that most manufacturers also offer a 3 year burn in warranty
based on this and other anecdotal evidence of people with 1-2 years of actual non-abusive normal use, burn in on recent oled panels is practically non-existent and you will probably encounter it only if you intend to use it heavily with no precautions to avoid it for 5+ years

Just read an article about how TF2's max FPS is like 400.

Does this mean an OLED at 480hz will be worse than the TNs with Backlight strobing because the OLED is solely relying on the frames whereas the TN is working its magic with the backlight strobing tech for this game? Still probably get it for other games but is that the matter?

Cause I read for example those top refresh rate monitors are shitter than the ones that are specialised for 240hz for example at those lower rates
