Has anyone tried an OLED monitor?
Yeah, not worth the money. Unless it is a huge discount. They all get burn-in within 2 years. Image quality will be based on monitor. Used an LG one that was great but hurt my eyes gave me a headache after a few hours

Any chance the eye pain was brightness turned up and/or refresh rate too high?

Could have been the cause. My new XPS has an OLED and it is great.

That seems a bit overpriced. Is it as good as ones with replaceable caps?
Which version do you have?

I don't personally have those.

I think @Dan tried those, but hated the mechanical feel.

I use MX Keys, but many people swear by mechanical.

I've used a Predator sk-9627 since Black Friday 2016 when my PC died the day of Black Friday and I sent my wife to Costco to buy the best Desktop they had, this keyboard came with it.

It's a feel.

But from Google "Most gamers prefer mechanical keyboards because they're more tactile, durable, and faster."

MX switches are mechanical...

I only use mechanical. I have reds & blues. Prefer my reds but they took longer to get used to - much quicker. If not a fast typer, can often feeling like finger slipping onto the wrong keys

And there's Bli Ayin Hora no reason why it shouldn't. You need to upgrade a budget computer from 2016, not "the best one they stocked." That should be fine for a good few years.
