Woop ! The QN900D is ordered, along with a Denon AVRX2800H. The new Klipsch center/sub are being installed. TV first, but am working on the computer-receiver link. (y)

If you are doing graphics work, and 3d work that includes textures and colors - be aware that FALD screens are non-uniform by nature of the backlight tech. So if you need absolute values, it might not be possible with FALD. Wherever there is...

Interesting but not really apples to apples comparing a 4k TV. For long 34 - 40 deg living room home theater enthusiasts it makes sense to compare them, since at those distances 4k already gets ~ 120PPD. For people looking for 8k...

Micro LED would be great. Afaik there are still not consumer price range and sized micro LED screens. They are like 100" plus and over $100 thousand usd. . . . Considering that I don't think those are a viable alternative overall just yet...

You can't get the same kind of black depth and contrast in uniform fashion on FALD LCDs. In large planes of dark or bright you can get very large values - but wherever there is mixed brights and darks (which is how most detail, depth is shown in...

Hand for those line to be infinitely small instead of physical bezel. The only seem significant of the multiple monitor setup over a single one that would be the same size and pixel count and curve, is how easy it is to handle a fullscreen...

While the array with the 48" 4k OLED might seem like a lot, it's still less than 7680 x 2160 of a 8k screen. It's 3x 4k screens, and ~3.5x 4k screens if I added the 49" ultrawide - as compared to 4x 4k worth of pixel real-estate on a 8k...

I'm saying if you dial in a pretty stable array of windows and apps you typically use, you have delineating lines on the screen already, even as just tiles like you are saying. You still have the flexibility for other layouts or dedicating a...

What I was trying to get at was that I am leaning back toward an array of screens (without a middle bezel). The point was that once you dedicate some spaces you typically use for windows management, the window frames are almost like mini bezels...

I checked it out briefly, thanks. I'm still following along the threads. Really interested in whenever RTings gets a review up. There are very few other places that would review something that is sort of niche like this. Everyone so far...

For me personally I just don't see much reason to go back to 1440p when I've been on 4K for years already. Upscaling has sort of rendered the whole argument that 4K is "too demanding" as obsolete. Upscaling is found in nearly all new releases...

More options are good. How useful it is to individuals or particular games/settings vs rates could "vary" . ;)

It doesn't disable VRR, it just changes the effective range. I wouldn't rule it out as useless just yet. Sure the use case might be limited but I can see scenarios where it actually works. It just needs some proper testing.

Yes I like to call them frame rate "potholes" being from the northeast usa where seasonal freezing and thawing causes an ongoing problem, breaking up roads into deep potholes in places. I think what he was saying was not that your frame rate...

Reddit user says this is how it functions: I disagree with him saying that it's pointless because while it is true that if you have a mostly stable fps within the upper VRR range, sometimes you can have huge frametime spikes as a result of...

There was a port cover panel shown in the video, being removed as part of the process, but not a big deal.

You don't need to remove anything. Just plug a USB drive into a specific USB port.

Might depend how much of a pita it is to you to move the screen from where you want it and remove the housing. But yeah infrequent I guess.

You could probably get a usb switch to swap a usb thumbdrive between the tv and your pc, running a usb cable to the back of the monitor (or tv) as if it was the drive. Then you could wipe it and dump the newer firmware on it from the pc, then...

Yeah out of those the sleep issue is the only real major problem. Don't know if that has been fixed with either MacOS or monitor firmware updates since then. MacOS is a real turd for external display handling in general. I've found my M2 Max...
