i'm in europe, so prices are even more nonsensical over here; the m27q-x can be bought for the same price as the -qd right now the new msi MAG274QRX sounds interesting too, but it's too new for stock and prices to have settled over here

you can use dsr (dldsr on rtx cards) to create a higher fake resolution to use i play ff14 comfortably on a 1070 fwiw. vrr picks up a lot of the slack, too i don't play above 60 because it supposedly messes with the physics and stuff, however

but at least you can manually set it to 4k and downsample with vrr which is still pretty great

any idea why my msi monitor keeps returning to 60hz all the time, forcing me to open the gamingosd app to fix it manually? i thought all games could only run at 58 instead of 165, but it's just the weird monitor shenanigans

runaway dog posted:I think you could probably coast by on DLSS, but stuff like the new cyberpunk 2077 expansion with raytracing ultra could have you reaching for the performance tier of DLSS (1080p upscaled at 4k) and with amd allegedly pushing to have their branded games only feature the incredibly inferior FSR, you might find yourself annoyed and dropping settings to medium. I stepped up to ultrawide 1440 from normal 1440 on a 3080 10gb and it was fairly a fairly noticeable performance drop in some games. as long as you're not streaming or recording, you're good

apple tv is actually very sensitive to hdmi cables of middling quality. worst case is probably you just not getting a signal like with them

i need to have some work done around my house, and i don't have the cover bags that came with my tv and monitors. i don't live in na, so i can't just order stuff off amazon or whatever, but if it were you in this situation, what would you try to put around them as i move them around a bit? it's mostly to ward off dust and other particles, but i just want to make sure i don't risk scratching the panels obviouslyJack the Lad posted:Maybe a dumb question but does anyone have any links/resources for stuff to do/test on a new monitor?

see if you can rent a colorimeter, you never know truhu was supposed to be an affordable solution, but the release of their windows app has stalled by the look of it

loved the transitional period where widescreen games would just make people throw up because the devs botched their fov system

if you only just figured out what ulmb 2 is, bad news: nvidia announced g-sync pulsar today:quote:At CES, we also announced two new G-SYNC innovations: G-SYNC on GeForce NOW, and G-SYNC Pulsar technology. quote:For over a decade, our engineers have pursued the challenge of marrying the fluidity of VRR timing with the precise timing needed for effective advanced strobing.

hdr is alright for tv and movies on flatscreens, but gaming remains a mess. ps5 doesn't even require games to use the user calibration for hdr, and it's a complete lottery whether games have been optimized for hgig final fantasy 7 remake still looks best in sdr and we still haven't settled on a basic way for tv's to communicate their hdr capability to output devices instead of having to manually calibrate and set up ics profiles and god knows what hdr for gaming is one of those things i'm more pessimistic about than most things that being said, it'd be cool if the ux for colour profiles wasn't so bad that i discovered the other day that windows was using the wrong colour profile for both of my monitors for god knows how long, because how a mere mortals supposed to keep up with that kind of stuff

main thing to watch out is still whether the subpixel layout is rgb or something worse, since it makes text more unpleasant to read

msi have had some pretty significant firmware updates to their optix mag monitors including changes to edid, so it's weird of them to take this stance if i had to assume some level of competence on msi's part, it's because it's super easy to brick your monitor by turning off the monitor during a firmware update, and they probably have an rma backlog to tell the story monitors are very much still not a solved problem as far as a bunch of fancy features out there, and this is definitely going to bite them in the rear end

wouldn't you be able to change the scaling from being performed by the monitor to the gpu if it's just an edid switch? it sounds neat in theory, and i basically have the inverse form of it through a faked 4k support for 1440p from back when ps5 would only send 1080p if you didn't fake a 4k edid
