LG's smallest OLED yet, the 48" CX has been hotly anticipated as being both small enough to be used as a big monitor, and, at $1,500, inexpensive enough to consider as a TV upgrade to compliment the new Xbox Series X and Playstation 5 gaming consoles (due to HDMI 2.1 support for 4K 120 gaming).

I wish they made a curved version of this. After using a curved monitor for like 6 years, sitting too close to a flat screen (working/design & gaming), i feel like a flat screen is bending backwards (opposite direction of a curved monitor) in the middle. Makes me actually nauseous and its impossible to not focus on the middle of the screen. This is the monitor I have waited for 3-4 years now, and I hope LG can make it curved. Anyone else with the same issue as me, or am I just weird? :)
Thank you for uploading everyday when therre isn't much to watch on youtube nowadays

Another benefit to using a TV over a monitor that you didn't mention is that you can use window tiling to make the worlfow of a 4K 48" TV identical to four 24" HD TV's without any bezels between them. Great for all of the multi-monitor users.
Plus a lot of modern TV's support Bluetooth, so you can pair your headset to your TV instead of your computer, and when you want to play a console the sound still comes out of your headset without having to reconfigure anything.
Exactly, they are so versatile. I like to use BT earbuds on the LG to sit back and watch content without waking up the rest of the house
I'm rocking this setup, and would love some advice you have on getting best tiling experience on mac, linux, and windows (Use a bit of all of the above for work..)
I use window tiling on my 24" 4K monitor to have four 12" HD monitors (like small laptop displays). The text can be a LITTLE small, but it's still quite readable, and I do it all day long for work. Still, I think it would feel better with a 27" or 28" monitor. But, in my room and on my desk, every inch of space matters. I have a Varidesk 48" on my IKEA Jerker desk to switch between sitting and standing. I have two Dell P2415Q monitors on the desk. I use the monitor on the right when I sit and the one on the left when I stand or, more specifically, when I walk on the treadmill. If I could just sit in the middle, then one larger monitor would work, but there's a chair on the right and a treadmill on the left.

@@An_Evangelist_Who_Loves_Jesus what?
I also have the 55" for my living room with a PS5 for gaming, and I immediately felt cheated for playing through PS5 games on my Sony LCD prior to purchasing! I think it's the best option by far if you want a TV first to which you want to run an HDMI from your PC for couch gaming. I'm not certain I want the 48" for my daily driver, but the 77" for some Halo or whatever? yes please. It being a TV primarily reduces your burn in risk as it gets plenty of screen time not being a static display.

Got this Tv/Monitor a month ago and wall mounted it, helped with the view distance. So far most games will allow the Black bars or changing the ratio from 16:9 to 16:10(apex) or 21:9 will shrink the image and use a 2550 x 1600 or the like on about 32 inch. I have to say its cheaper than the 38 inch ultrawides and the OLED color and contrast makes many games look much better. I have to say im very happy I went this route . Biggest suggestion is make sure you can wall mount and get that 3 ft from the screen. If you use a smaller resolution and or window mode, most tv mounts pull closer to make up for the smaller image . Sooo GO GET ONE !!
Lol if you play Darksouls in oled tvs, get ready to have the word burn " YOU DIED" ni the middle of the screen.

all I want is 32" 4K 120hz, with reasonable price, this is just the perfect size for desktop PC
27" is enough for me.
24"-27" is good enough, 32" is a bit too much
@Youssef 1 lmfao, i can see the diff going down from 24 to 23. But using old 32” fhd tv on one pc as a monitor, and it’s FANTASTIC, you could watch content from sofa with a comfort.
for 1440p, 27" is perfect, but with current graphics cards capabilities, 4k is very possible with high refresh rates. currently, I have the Acer predator xb321hk, which is 32" 4k gsync, but only at 60hz. after using it for a while, its really hard to go back to 27".

I have a friends who switched from their ROG and Samsung 49" to this one. When LGs added game mode to their lineup it made sense to get this especially if you're gonna blowup the wallet on a massive high end monitor.
The "gaming" monitors generally costs 600$ to 1000$ more having essentially the same panels and even cutting TV functionalities.. Lg C1, C2 and CX are killers for desktop, console and movies usage... I even changed my Odyssey G9 to one C2.. amazing TV

@@hamsteerio you know what I wouldn't even blame you.....I just got back from the store and installing the 55" model of the CX and this thing is so beautiful compared to the TCL tv I was using before. not sure if it is just going from a crappy tv to a good one that is causing the wow factor or if it is just because oled is just that good

Hey, at 11:43 you mentioned that Game mode ain't as color accurate, it's a bit hidden but actually you can configure the TV in a PC mode which is also input lag-free and have a better color accuracy. To do that, you need to go to the "sources" panel (called my home or something like that), edit HDMI labels and choose the PC icon for the HDMI you're using for the PC. When you do that, picture modes configurations you've made will reset (actually I think it loads a new set for the PC mode, but if you go to HDMI labels and switch back to the previous type it will load your old configs) and now you'll have also slightly different modes and configs if I remember well.

I have the feeling that, if one can purchase the hardware necessary to drive a 4k display at high frame rates, then the price of this OLED is likely a non-issue. This is certainly top tier stuff all around. Plus it doubles as your actual TV in a small room. Nice combo there. I'll keep this on my wish list, not that I expect to afford it or the PC that can run games properly on it.
Even if you don't run games in 4k, it can be futureproofing depending on the costs
a TV can easily live for more than a decade. I still use an old-school CRT tv in my kitchen because it is still alive after like 20 years
Nothing can run 4k 120 fps in demanding games yet, not even the 3090. Benchmarks are out now
Right to the point. I get around 800-1000 euros a month. This kind of salary could be called "poor" in countries like America. But I could easily afford this kind of TV if I wanted to. And if my country even had one in first place. But the question is.. do I really need this kind of highest end TV ? I doubt it. I can only imagine how good it looks in person. Well we all already did... like every smarthone have OLED anyway. But its a "bit bigger."
Yep. I have a 3080 and I’ma snag this as a monitor and bedroom TV.
Linus: That looks like garbage cause it’s 1366x768

Depends how big your monitor is. So long as you are happy with it resolution isn't everything.
@@user-jt1jv8vl9r I have 1366 on my laptop. It's not always great for browsing websites, but for gaming or movies it's fine
Just try using external monitors for laptops when at home. I use to do this kind of setup last year but got tired on how slow my laptop was, so I just figured to buy myself a new gaming pc.
its only bad eventually for your eyes...not your pride, but i really reccommend even if your computer is not strongly equipped to invest most of what you have in a monitor with at least 1000 nits...you are going to save your eyesight.

i recently bought a 55 inch oled and fell so in love with its gaming performance that i am actually using it as a monitor now. The ergonomics of an 55 inch monitor ist quiet huge, but i got used to it pretty quick and i sometimes use windowed or borderless modes on lower resolution (or custom resultion) ingame when the picture get too big to handle
@Frank Silvers Aside from LG's own measure against burn in, there are a number of things you can stick to in order to prevent burn in. The biggest point is to use the screen in normal "office" mode at a low brightness. I use SDR 30% and HDR 80% (only in games). Furthermore, you should vary the position of your static UI elements more often. I regularly move my Windows bar and automatically hide it when possible. This should make burn in extremely unlikely.
@Frank Silvers I totally understand your point. Although I can't quite understand the negative approach. Believe me, this OLED at 30% looks way better and brighter than any mid-range monitor I've had before. And looks insanely good while gaming on 80%. And it looks even better at 100% when watching Dolby Atmos Movies. For someone like me (tech nerd), it's perfect. Working by day and gaming/watching movies by night. I am young so my apartment space is limited. So it's perfect to cover all usecases with one device. And for me personally, it's worth the risk of burn in (even if I STRONGLY reduce it by the described measure). But it's not for everyone if the benefits from this setup don't outweigh the risk. I see you.
Man his intro is the only intro I never skip
It's really dope at its full version
It appeals to my inner ADHD
I’ve been using a 65” OLED as my PC’s display since 2016. Never going back to small screens or monitors ever again.

"I may actually be significantly further away from the edges as I am from the centre"
Welcome to the year 500 BC linus, where today we are going to learn about triangles
His point was that if you are sitting 8 feet away from a tv this size then you are virtually the same distance from all parts of the screen assuming you are sitting directly front and center and the tv itself is not angled in any significant way
Which is super basic maths that Pythagoras established 2500 years ago.
This isn't at all a new concept, im not sure why anyone would be surprised by this notion...
@Gorilla Snapper - The word “significantly” is very important here. With a smaller display, though the distance to the edges is larger than the distance to the center, it is not significant .
@@sampad8 the word used is irrelevant because triangles only work a particular way. Distance only impacts the angles nothing more, nothing less.

Burn-in is very real. Having played Minecraft on my 55" LG E8 OLED, I when there are fields of certain solid colors on-screen, I can see 10 little heart icon shadows on the screen where they would normally be during the game, despite the built-in burn-in protection and "refresh" routines.
How long are your Mincecraft game sessions? Over 10 hours? Have you tried to run flickering images for a longer period of time, to "reactivate" those sections of the screen?
Sometimes you can even affect "dead" pixel, by touching the affected areas on the screen. Like massaging them out/ no joke.
Also, don't mistake "burn in" with "Image Retention". Image Retention goes away after some time. Now's the question, are the hearts permanent since then?
@@eiszapfenderwutendenwinde3233 My game sessions rarely ever went longer than about 5 hours. The issue with OLED screens isn't that they get stuck like LCD screens, it's that the tiny LED pixels physically wear out over time when they're lit. When you run a screen refresh cycle on the panel, it simply tries to lower the power on the the less-used pixels so that their brightness is comparable to the ones that have experienced more watt-hours. Image retention on OLED displays never really goes away since the material in LEDs physically decays (very slowly) over time when they're energized. It can only be disguised. Unfortunately in the case of my TV, despite the efforts of the manufacturer, those little hearts still remain as shadows when certain solid colors are displayed.
You can read about LED decay here: ledlightinginfo.com/do-led-lights-get-dimmer-over-time
@Travis Clark Fair enough. My TV is at 11542 power-on hours right now. Also, make sure you turn on auto-hide on your taskbar on that 48 CX. Wouldn't want to burn in a Start button.
@Travis Clark Hey Travis, what else do you recommend to prevent burn in? I bought the 48" CX and use it for work on Windows most of the time, but also for gaming and watching movies. I've heard using a black wallpaper with no icons helps.
@Travis Clark Cheers. Do you do anything special with the wallpaper e.g. all black? Also, I've heard using the TV's screensaver is a good idea instead of just making it turn off after a few minutes (not sure which is better)
I'm currently sitting 3 feet away from the 77" model. It's like experiencing HD all over again. But in IMAX.

If they made a 43" one for $1000 it would sell like crazy.
Hopefully when they switch to a new manufacturing process, they'll be able to make more (and especially smaller) sizes.
If they made 32" I would buy it even for $1500. It's not even about the money, it's just too big.

I've been using one of these as a monitor for the past month. OLED is so damn good, I don't think I could ever go back. I have a 27" in portrait mode beside it to leave up more static pages like discord/browser etc. Black background, move task bar to other monitor (auto hiding taskbar still tends to leave a visible line), extension to hide scroll bars in browsers, full screening browser windows.

The biggest problem with reading text on TVs vs. Monitors wasn't the resolution of older 1080p TVs. It was due to most TV panels having 4:2:2 not 4:4:4 chroma subsampling.
It was resolution. 4:2:2 is not a problem because you get full luminance which is what text is. The issue is that smaller tvs were mostly 720p

He should've set color temperature to warm2 in game mode to achieve the same(or almost the same) color accuracy as in filmmaker mode. The default color temperature for game mode is not accurate.
Warm 2 idk if good standard for oled. But Game mode is way too dim. I keep mine at vivid while maintaining “game mode”. (Set hdmi to PC)
@@ahmadtayyem9439 the only real feature of game mode is low latency which pc mode accomplishes while letting you pick vivid. Game mode is overall dim and dims the screen on/off constantly.
@@danielvelkovski3156 you can make the game mode work without it being to dim. Go to on of the advanced picture settings and play around. eventually you will find the right setting. Because if ur not playing in game mode there are too many picture calibration processes wich is not good for gaming.
And if ur not playing in game mode at least turn off all the picture processes like noise reduction and stuff like that.
And watch vincents HDTV Test channel. He explains everything
Agreed, that is what I have it set to on my PC. Granted I don't really care about color accuracy, but warm 2 just makes productivity tasks easier on the eyes. Even on xbox where I strictly game I use warm 1.
The default color temperature is just way too cool imo. Surprised he didn't even bother fiddling with the settings.
@@Kahfjdkaj dude in PC mode it turns off all those processes. You cant even accessed them. I tried everything on game mode and no good. Still too dim and it auto dims everything webpage even on the same page while scrolling.
I just made the move. I wanted to upgrade size wise and most reports (e.g. from hardware unboxed) were unanimous that 40+ inches 4k monitors are still very underwhelming (especially considering their price). This OLED TV though has unanimously good reviews so I pulled the trigger.
I can give 3 main feedbacks.
First the response time and input lag in game mode are great. I do not see any difference compared to my previous PC monitor. This thing handles just like a monitor and if you didn't know it's a tv you wouldn't guess.
Second, the colors and blacks are just phenomenal in my opinion. So if it's mostly important for you that games, movies etc just look amazing (vs for instance pure performance in FPS) then this is the way to go. Gaming on this thing is an experience! (I have a water cooled RTX3080 pushing pixels to it)
Third, the size. You get used to having such a big display on your desk really quickly. It feels strange maybe the first day or two but after this adaptation time it's not an issue at all. You need at least 100cm desk depth though, realistically. keep in mind that 20cm are lost due to the "buttock hump". Any desk depth between 100 and 120 cm will do great. I wouldn't use this on a 60 or 70cm deep desk. I was also looking more for a 42 or 43" display initially, now I feel like 48 ain't that big actually. Definitely big enough but not overwhelming at all. I would not switch it for a 42" version even if I could. Tech Chap the reviewer gave the feedback that he had to switch back after one month, but you'll see in his video that his desk is really narrow. He's clearly missing 40cm desk depth. Just as an info my desk depth is about 110 cm.
One more point, make sure you use an ultra high speed HDMI cable when gaming. Destiny2 for instance looked all glimmery and off until I received my HDMI 2.1 cable. Then all of a sudden the game looked gorgeous. I suspect my previous cable just didn't have the bandwith to send textures fast enough.
Also make sure your room will be dark to semi-dark without any light source behing you (like a window). This thing has a glossy pannel and being an OLED, has limited brightness. I'm in a semi dark room, meaning there are windows just not with direct exposure to the tv and I have 0 reflection or brightness issue.
You'll need to invest some time customizing all of the TV's parameters. But it's well worth it.
This will be my display for the next 5 to 10 years.
If you're still hesitating, my advice would be order it from a trusted shop where you know you'll be able to bring it back/return it and try it out in your setup. Chances are you won't need to return it ;)
I too am wondering about burn in. It's my only concern regarding this display.
Would the 42 be alright with a desk-depth of 76.2cm/30in?
@@FsimulatorX it depends on your preferences but dimension wise it should probably work out. Keep in mind you lose quite a few cm because on the base.
The best would be to get it from a place with a good return policy and try it for a few days. If it's not good, you could have headaches or neck strain after a day or two.
@Abhishek Srivastava I've had the TV for more than a year now and I use the screen almost all day every day looking at charts and excel sheets. I don't have a single issue with burn in or pixel damage yet (knock on wood).
I implemented a few measures you need on a screen like this such as rotating wallpapers, auto hiding task bar and no icons on the desktop (nothing static basically).
Every time I walk away from the desk for more than 5-10 min I switch it off.
The TV itself has a bunch of features to prevent and correct burn in. Linus from LTT made a video about it. Showed that the TV can repair most of the burn in if it happens.
It's also important to note that I run the TV at around 60% brightness and oled brightness. I think this goes a long way to protect it. I'm in a room with lots of windows and light colored thick curtains which means lots of diffuse light and the 60% looks great. Something to try in your set up if you got it from a place with return policy.
great feedback. this is what i'm looking for. :) planning to use it daily for photo editing and gaming.
I'm just waiting for them to make a "bendable" monitor, so you can adjust the curve of it depending on how far you sit from it.
That would be sick.
This is actually plausible! They already have some rollable displays. Combine that with a suitable plastic panel and this is actually possible. Suitable mounting mechanisms and stands will have to be developed but now I'm invested in this idea!
@@Sweet-Vermouth Toughest part is making the flexible materials have the same video quality as the existing rigid panels. They have a hard time making even RIGID panels have any kind of quality assurance. But we can hope, someday!
Meh. I want one that automatically detects my distance, ambient lighting, and knows if I'm using it for media, gaming, or photo/video editing to change its shape and color accuracy.

*"i moved from crt and i skipped lcd all together and how glad i am of that"*
I did _exactly_ the same thing! I had an FW900 for 10 years, and then used a 22" 4:3 flat screen CRT for 4 more years until it started smoking (I don't allow smoking in the house).
I had been hoping and hoping for OLED monitors since ~2010, and when the 22" CRT gave out in 2018 and I couldn't find a good CRT at a reasonable price, I bought an OLED55B7A. It's a downgrade from a CRT in many ways of course, but I can't think of any gaming display that would be better without spending tens of thousands of dollars.
I use it for "High FOV Gaming", which means I have an eye distance as close as 18" from the 55" display, giving me an _actual_ or hardware FOV of ~110°, which is higher than a Vive or Rift. That allows me to raise the in-game or software FOV to 110° with zero distortion, because distortion is not caused by a "high" FOV--it's caused by a mismatch between in-game and actual FOV.

@@GeraldMMonroe right. Fuck the environment anyway
@@Omaricon There organic bro lol
@@GeraldMMonroe shame on you. Seriously. Shame on you. Just think about what you said. Why should anyone need to buy a monitor every few years, especially if it's 4-8k and 120hz? Monitors are more future proof than ever and goofs like you are making excuses for disposable display tech replacing durable tech. So much for the earth, the consumer, etc, right? Oooohhhh but it looks slightly better in a dark room, oooooh, so worth it for throwing our principles away. There is no reason a 300 dollar monitor should last any less than a 3000 dollar one, and I challenge you to explain why. Especially a 4k 120 hz (the effective "good enough for humanity for all time" resolution, it will be around probably longer than us in some form) monitor. Seriously, why would you want to have to throw away a 4k120 monitor of any size tier? They are just going to be inherently useful for decades to come. OLED was a huge mistake for the consumer and consumers willingly let it be shoveled upon them because flashy new things mattered more than consumer rights. In any other industry the disposable nature of OLED would have disqualified it from release since it replaces LCD, a non disposable display tech. The hypocrisy of society and tech reviewers on this is bizzare and very very saddening.
@@awesomeferret because it looks good, don't kid your self, tech lasts at 5 years top before a average person replaces it. Not decades, Hell Im replacing my 144hz 1080p monitor in less than two years because I want a better one and Id probably replace my new monitor in two years any way.
The one thing I need to see here is furniture that allows you to use a TV like this as a monitor AND as a TV for a small living room like mine. It's one thing to put a TV on your desk.

I have 2 4k monitors (NOT TVs) on my desk. Acer 32" 4K and 43" 4K. And both of them together probably cost 1/3 ($700 for both) of what this OLED does. The level of enjoyment varies depending on the task.
WORK / surfing / productivity = 43" is great. Huge spreadsheets? Code? Visio's, etc. It's all good. 32" could be bigger. I'm sitting about the same distance from both, and I have to turn up DPI / scaling / window zooming. I have a hard time reading things sometimes when remoting to another system via RDP or Horizons etc, where it's not easy to adjust size.
PLAY = 40" would be great. I wish the 43" was a little smaller. Why is 40" not even an option? MKB games in fullscreen 4k are right in your face. I have started using a controller for everything except strategy games. Bonus points to Linus for showing Civ 6... for Civ, MORE BIGGER = MORE BETTER. Bigger maps, etc.
Either way you go, 4K is THE WAY. I would love to check out this OLED Linus is using, but those things are NOT CHEAP. And since I don't have a brand new GPU, having monitor with Displayport is the way to get 4k/60.
Last thing, and maybe it's just Acer's monitors (I have really only used Dell and Acers)... the OSD menus SUCK. The little joystick on the back to navigate the menus SUCK. Something as simple as CHANGING the video input source can take 10 clicks. It should be 1 or 2. Also (ACER anyway) if the signal drops or source is off... the monitors FREAK OUT trying to get into the menu to change the input. It's like they are searching for an input signal and don't want you telling it which port to look on. I'm betting that's an Acer thing, you make a tradeoff somewhere for being cheaper than Dells.
Just had a LG CX come in today. So glad I bought this TV.
I mostly notice the extremely high contrast. It looks like another part of the room when he is sitting in front of it, rather than a flat layer. It's a subtle effect most might just shrug over, but it makes a huge difference in actual image fidelity (or experience) when visual quality matters (basically in game "graphics" it makes a world of difference).

Can u clarify something for me? I’m also considering an LG CX, but then watched another video (of course!) which claimed there were 5 BIG reasons why one shouldn’t buy the CX (especially comparing it with the C9). The guy claimed the HDMI 2.1 ports weren’t really 2.1 (for reasons I couldn’t follow), and therefore one would never be able to future-proof with the CX. To complicate matters further, I can’t really tell if ANY of the HDMI ports on this 48” LG OLED are 2.1 or not? Also, does your C10 now support 48 GBPs, per the patch that Linus refers to? Finally, and most importantly, are you saying that the “picture quality is insane” as a monitor when you’re playing games, or as aTV when you’re streaming movies or watching Blu-ray Discs? Many thanks!
@@ttaylor5847 So the ports are 2.1 for sure. They used to only transfer 40 GBPs but with the patch it is now 48GPS. It wouldn't have mattered any how because the only difference between the data 40GBs can transfer and 48GBPs can transfer are more colors. The additional colors that could have potentially been transferred don't matter because no TV can produce them. They created a way to display more colors in the future but tvs wont have the ability to use it for prolly a decade, so all the additional bandwidth (48 over 40) isnt important. By insane I mean the picture is amazing for everything. I use it as an everyday computer monitor but I also use it to watch netflix, football, etc. I use it to watch everything. Watching the movies on netflix with Dolby Vision is amazing. IMHO its worth the money. As far as I know, the 48 inch and the 55 are the exact same except for size.

@@veduci22 It depends. I mean yes you're technically right it always will eventually happen, but the RTings test that was shown had a COD loop playing 20 hrs a day on max brightness without logo dimming for 2 years and showed minimal burn in. Meanwhile, Fifa showed significant burn in, specifically where the bright white menu segments were (scorecard, etc). So if you use the logo dimming and dim the actual display, it would appear you can do quite a bit and still be ok. I mean, who plays 20 hr days every single day of one single game? I doubt anyone does. So extrapolating, if you played 8hrs 5-6 days a week, even if you ONLY EVER did that one game, you'd get 5-7 years of lifespan out of your tv before significant burn in, and that's pretty damned good. Combine that with lowering brightness, setting logo dimming to "High", and at least somewhat varying your content, and for most people this will be a non-issue. However, I WOULD recommend hiding the taskbar, yeah.

I never knew any of this would happen. My advice, if you watch a lot of regular tv is to STAY AWAY from LG oled tv's... 😢
You shouldn't have a problem with "regular TV" other than maybe sports/news. it's the gaming with static HUDS that scare me from getting this kind of tv. But damn I hear it's a good tv for PS5. I game maybe 8hrs a week collectively
Those drilling sounds reactions killed me lol, best part of the video
I need OLED to hurry and make its way down the stack. Using 4k 120Hz at 27" atm, don't care too much for going higher refresh but having an OLED panel around this size would be glorious.
I'm watching this on the LG CX and it is just amazing. A huge upgrade from a 1440p ultawide. Everything is just stunning to look at.
for monitor? how far do you sit from it?

Only Linus would poke a $3k Oled screen with a metal measuring tape

This scares me.
i used oled tvs as pc monitors since 2014 i moved from crt and i skipped lcd all together and how glad i am of that
@@rim685cennirsuc2 ok?
I have a C9 oled and had a samsung plasma in the past both used as computer monitors. Never had an isssue with burn in. And mine is on longer than the normal users would be. Honestly you have to try pretty hard to mess one up. Like leave the brightness setting cranked way up and watch CNN or something with a ticker on the screen all day long.
"RTS players..."
(Civ playing in background)
CiV is turn-based, not real time strategy.
Linus: "RTS players...."
*gestures at civ 6*
The only rts that would probably benefit from it would be supreme commander
Yep.
@@adrianrabe2099 The zoom level in age of empires 2 also depends on the resolution
@RITA , I WАNT ВОУ !!!!! OPEN MY CАNАL !!!! Ah yes, an actual RTS player.
*me still on Civ5*
Mom: Don’t sit so close to TV!
You: Put the TV on your desk
Haha.
The hammer drilling interruptions have me dead!! haha
