How to Protect My First OLED Display from Burn-In?

[Dejva5]

Hi,

I recently got the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 GA605WI.

Processor: AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 Display: 16" OLED, 2560 × 1600, 240Hz, 500 Nits RAM: 32GB LPDDR5x 7500MHz Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 8GB Storage: 2TB SSD

Since it's my first OLED display, I want to know how I can protect it from burn-in. Are there any settings in Windows or G-Helper that could help extend the lifespan of the OLED? Thanks for any advice!

@Dejva5 hello,

I was answering this before.

You can consider couple of things:

• Set windows to auto-rotate wallpapers, as to my best knowledge AC's "pixel shifter" just shifts a windows wallpaper few pixels here and there
• Set taskbar to autohide (right click on task bar and open it's settings)

And main one : use a common sense, like don't keep same static elements all the time on the same spots, etc :)

Thanks.

@seerge about this, before I uninstalled AC, I noticed an option where you can toggle an option which makes the window you're focused on the default brightness and the other parts of the screen dim. I think it should be a decent addition to this software.
I hope this helps.

Thank you.

For example, when you open the G Helper app, if you're focused on it, i.e. clicked in the G Helper window. The other parts of the screen dim. It is also an option to protect the OLED screen.
