i've been there multiple times before, they're legit (also cranky as hell if you try to return anything lol)

thank you for the offer! might consider it if nothing pans out, but would much prefer a direct purchase

doesn't HDR just need a 2.0a port on both ends and most any newish hdmi cable?

the HDR stuff is all just electrons over the same pins yeah but if there is a difference in the signaling clock or something where it needs more bandwidth to carry the HDR data then it could be a problem but likely only at the extreme end of the allowed cable length

i ask because i'm looking at building a new htpc as well.

all the micro atx boards i'm seeing either just specify 'hdmi' or are explicitly hmdi 1.4.

can you get hdr with a display port > hdmi adaptor and coffee lake onboard? or should i just stick a GT 1030 in there?

edit: looks like HDR10 was added in display port 1.4 and those boards are 1.2, so yup, buy a GT1030. i'm going to buy one and stick it in my old 4850e/HD3200 htpc in the meantime to see how much difference it makes.

any idea what's going on here? the part that has "world" in it is a 3D display and it's supposed to fill the entire right-side section. when it resizes it just gets filled with whatever happens to be behind there at the moment. i'm thinking this is some intersection of incorrect high-dpi scaling and video driver weirdness. this is ubuntu 16.04.

yes, premium high speed cable and 2.0a is sufficient. 2.0b rev2 adds hlg hdr metadata

2.1 will be much better about it but it's some year out for now

yeah gt1030 is what i ended up getting for my parents since the only 370 board i found with hdmi 2 was neither great, nor available in latvia

remembered to actually up your dpi too? does this happen after e.g. xrandr --dpi 192 ? (remember to restart the program of course)

I just installed Windows 10 and I'm having some weird stuttering issues where everything regularly freezes for a few seconds. System seems to be spiking in CPU usage whenever it happens. Any ideas?

do you do anything particular that causes these spikes, no matter how menial it seems? is it loading updates rn? anything funny in cpu/io/ram usage in task manager details? if you move mouse when it freezes, will the pointer be moved when it unfreezes?

if it's just after installation it's probably installing bullshit in the background, and that could be drivers

It's been like this a day or two now so it should be done installing updates at this point. I guess using Firefox in general seems to be triggering it especially but just scrolling up and down a word document or right clicking the task bar does it too. The strange thing in task manager is System spiking in cpu usage (like 40+%), when System goes down again it stops. Everything else is normal, no high disk usage, plenty of memory to spare, CPU isn't even hitting 100%. Mouse moves when it unfreezes, yes. Text I wrote while frozen appears when unfrozen too.

I caught the offender, it's dxgmms2.sys!VidMmInterface+0x44350. Some gfx card related MS driver i guess?

do a clean install of your gpu drivers (assuming nvidia, they have a clean install setting). likely better to remove old driver explicitly beforehand

what's the cpu/gpu/mobo btw?

i'm having some very weird issues with my new pc

it was running fine for a couple of days, but when i woke up yesterday morning it was turned off, so i turned it on and left for work

when i got home, one of my monitors (connected via hdmi) had signal and no video, the other (dvi) had nothing, so i rebooted

i was able to get it working for a short time until the displays went to sleep, at which point i couldn't get video

tried a bios update, swapped in an older gpu (which worked fine) and reinstalled nvidia drivers, but once i rebooted with the new gpu nvidia prompted me to install the exact same drivers again

tried a windows 10 refresh too, no dice :pwn:

you probably just want a normal domain pc plugged in to the screen that your it department can manage and you can log in to with your normal account
