How To Check Gaming Monitor For Mini Map Burn In

Use this guide to inspect a gaming monitor for minimap retention, HUD shadows, and OLED wear after long sessions.

Best for: PC and console gamers using OLED gaming monitors.

Why this guide matters

A minimap often sits in the same corner for entire matches, making it one of the most common sources of suspected HUD retention. This guide shows how to use the homepage to check whether that shadow is really there.

Where to inspect on a gaming display

Corners, top status zones, and bottom action bars deserve the most attention because those are the most common HUD locations. Full-screen browser patterns make those areas easier to inspect than game menus do.

Gray and white are often the quickest way to see faint HUD outlines.

  • Inspect the usual minimap corner first.
  • Check top-edge score and status zones.
  • Repeat after several minutes of non-game content.

What a repeated result suggests

If the same shape appears across several colors and later checks, it becomes more likely to be real wear rather than a temporary artifact. If it fades, the concern is usually lower.

The homepage helps because you can repeat the same test pattern sequence whenever needed.
