This is the newest OLED version. The others were VA panels
Thanks!

However I'm waiting for Black Friday and hoping an even better deal will pop up as I don't even need this beast of a monitor. My meager RX 6600 XT video card might not be able to drive/handle this monstrosity anyways.
Although, it would be nice to only have one monitor rather than the 4 I'm using now (2xQHD & 2xFHD). Probably would keep one though to have a vertical display for documents and such...
can you please say more about this?

G-sync is still semi-broken on all of these; you get flickering and occasional screen blackouts when displaying grey content. It's the most cited issue with the Samsung OLED monitors. Given how responsive OLED is and the high refresh rate, leaving G-Sync off isn't too noticeable, but disappointing considering the price point and market.
Another annoying thing is that, while fairly rare, HDR10+ content is problematic with this when viewing non 16:9 content; not all of the native apps support Zoom to Fill, and stretch to fill bizarrely only has 16:9 and 32:9 options; no 21:9. This is also due to the fact that PC can't output DV or HDR10+ on their own, so you're stuck with either native apps or streaming boxes, which don't support non-16:9 output resolutions. This would be much less of an issue on the 34" 21:9 version.
The screen also seems to interact bizarrely with Windows HDR; HDR content doesn't trigger a switch to HDR mode and leaving HDR mode on permanently is an issue because the SDR content brightness slider affects HDR content too and greys are somewhat lifted.
Even that would be less problematic if HDR and SDR mode remembered their own settings consistently (ex: 60% brightness for SDR vs 100% for HDR). Plus, most of the time when you switch from HDR to SDR and back, the Peak Brightness setting toggles back to Off, so I have to manually check that each time.
The menus and software are clunky in general but mostly tolerable, just frustrating.
Despite all that, the image quality is unmatched. It's much brighter with much more vivid colors than my LG OLED TV and games look fantastic. While it can't sustain super high peak brightness, specular highlights and flashes are retina searing and impactful and look incredible against the pitch black background. I rewatched many of my favorite test reel movies just to enjoy that.
