I've been playing on a "figure it out" collection of hardware for quite a while now. Got the funds and am now fleshing out the specifics. I've landed on a widebody cab size (VirtuaPin Widebody cabinet). What make/model display do you folks prefer for a 4K playfield? I'm not looking to get something on the cheap and make do. For context, my daily PC monitor is an LG 43" 4K C2 evo OLED but that doesn't mean I should just buy another ;-)  -- looking for advice from folks that have done this and been there.

 

Considerations are:

- I don't want to de-case it nor play with a router to "make it fit"

- Has to fit in the Virtua Pin Widebody cab 23.25" x 45" inside dimensions

- I want to avoid having to drill any side holes for pushing buttons

- I'd prefer to avoid needing to use the remote to turn it on/off (but I can probably cobble together a workaround for that)

I'm in the process of building one now (with a Jude Dredd widebody I'm converting). I've asked the same question and was pointed to a LG 43" C3 by a couple of people.

I have the 43 C2 for my desktop PC. Its a great screen but, as its a TV, had to use a 3rd party app which controls it via WiFi from the PC (to turn it off/on in sync w/the PC). The control works most of the time. I also have to deal with the webOS spam and OLED anti burn in process. For a desktop, worth the hassle. For a pin, perhaps too much fiddling. Appreciate your weighing in.
