Stand / VESAStand adjustment and VESA 300 × 300 mm mounting pattern; the large panel requires a mount rated for its weight and dimensions.

Signal and compatibility notes

At 4K/138 Hz, verify the GPU, cable and selected HDMI/DisplayPort timing; console sources may top out below the panel's maximum refresh. USB-C video requires DisplayPort Alt Mode. Because of its 42-inch class, check desk depth, stand footprint and 300 mm VESA mount load capacity before installation.

Native resolution and refresh depend on the connected computer's GPU, supported timing, port, cable, firmware, operating system and selected color format. Confirm capabilities in the model-specific manual rather than inferring them from connector shape alone.

OLED care and preservation

OLED panels can retain static imagery. Enable the manufacturer's panel-protection, pixel-shift and refresh features; follow on-screen prompts and documented care intervals. Avoid disconnecting power during a panel maintenance cycle, and record operating hours, firmware, calibration state and image condition for archival systems.
