PCs produce far too many static images (task bar, desktop icons, clock, gaming UI to name a few) for an OLED monitor. I would bet you anything that after a few months of heavy use, you'd throw up full screen on a YouTube video and be able to slightly still see your task bar, clock, desktop icons, something. I also hear that OLED is not too good for gaming. Something with input lag or motion blur? Delay when pixels turn off? (white, black, white) I'm not sure though. I am sure some will say "Just auto hide task bar and don't use desktop icons". What about the guy that plays League of Legends (or any game really) for 8 hours a day. A game UI is no different than a task bar.
Uneven pixel wear is why Samsung, a major producer of (AM)OLED panels has strayed away from OLED TVs and Monitors. This is also why the Galaxy and Note series still have capacitive buttons rather than an on screen task bar. My Motorola Nexus 6 has a very slight "ghosting" of its task bar when it is off screen. It can only be noticed on a gray background, but still. Samsung apparently said screw OLED because of this and is pushing their Quantum Dot.
I actually just pre-ordered the Samsung CFG70 monitor. It is a 24" 1080P 1ms 144hz Quantum Dot FreeSync display. Advertises 125% SRGB. It is a VA Panel so blacks should be pretty good. It is curved, but with how their VA panels / Quantum Dot works their shouldn't be any backlight bleed. (or so they say) They have a 27" model as well with the same exact specs, but not only is 27" a little too big for my setup and how close I end up to my monitor, I also feel that 27" is just too big for 1080P. Quantum Dot is about as good as it gets after OLED in my opinion, but I shall see soon enough.
