Repositioned and rewired the desk today. I really like it at an angle in this room. Allows me to look out the window and get some natural daylight while I'm working during the day and avoids screen glare when gaming at night. Moved the usb switch that was on the top of the desk to the side of...

FYI I tried this mod and the game freezes with the only fix being alt-f4. other users on nexusmods reporting the same.

I'm busy at work too but I took the day off lol. Looking forward to this

Man, I wish they would fix the HDR in this game. Getting better results turning HDR off and letting Windows AutoHDR handle it and correcting the gamma in the game.

Not bad at all!

Started a second playthrough, haven't played since launch. They've definitely patched up the game quite a bit. Overdrive RTX looks impressive too.

as a millennial, I agree with this article. Gaming is one of the few escapes from our fucked up world.

So is there a consensus on the best settings for this monitor? I have mine in sRGB mode, overdrive on "normal", dark boost is off, variable backlight is on level 3. This is with HDR on.

It's kinda poor game design really. When in real life are we staring directly at a bright light?

Yeah on my PG32UQX its way too bright. They've gone too far imo.

Is there a difference between HDMI and DisplayPort? Are they identical or is there a benefit to using one over the other?

Runs pretty well on a 4090 and a 5800X3D. DLSS Balanced: DLSS Quality:

Beat the game over the weekend. Played it originally on the PS4 Pro. Graphics are easily the best graphics I've seen in a video game. Thoroughly enjoyed the game, played it maxed out in 4K with DLSS quality on a 4090. No issues at all.

Picked up a PG32UQX from Microcenter today, was down to $2200. Returned my LG 27" OLED, the text quality became too much. I game in a decently lit room, so I can definitely tell the difference in HDR quality between this monitor and my 55" C2 and also the LG 27" OLED. This is by far superior...

Figured out my problem. Have to go into "detailed resolutions" then "TV resolutions". Can delete from there. That also deleted the 3840x2160 PC resolution too. Edit: This fixed my DLDSR resolutions being messed up too, nice!

How does one use CRU? I'm not seeing all the resolutions that are available to me in the NV control panel:

Just spent the morning looking into what DLDSR is. Quite impressed! I think I might keep the 4090 now. Currently spend most of my time playing Final Fantasy XIV, and running it at 6K makes it look impressive and the 4090 is definitely taxed at this point. Thanks!

Wanting to trade my Asus Gaming OC RTX 4090 for a Radeon 7900 XTX + cash. Amount of cash depending on model of 7900 XTX. Please private message me with cash amount and model of 7900 XTX. Card was purchased mid-December 2022. Recently downgraded to a 1440P 240hz monitor from a 120hz 4K monitor...

Loving this monitor more and more. Some tips for this monitor: Turn off energy savings, lower the blue color to 44 in the monitor settings and if your on Nvidia in the control panel go to "Adjust desktop color settings" and under "Color accuracy" check the box to override to reference mode"...

And the calibration guide:

lol. Yeah my 4090 is totally overkill at this point, was great for 4K but of the games I've tested so far tonight, none are pushing the 4090 that hard at all. Oh well, guess I wont need to upgrade for a while.

I picked one of these up tonight from the local Microcenter. Sold my LG C2 OLED to a friend. I found with the 42" C2 I was getting headaches and eye strain from extended gaming sessions (5+ hours). Decided to drop down to 27", I also picked up a regular IPS 27" too (LG 27GL83A) as a secondary...

From: https://www.techpowerup.com/review/evga-geforce-rtx-3090-ftw3-ultra/ I paid $1800 for the FTW3 3090, I paid $1800 for this Asus TUF Gaming OC 4090.

I didnt say it did

I think maybe the push to 4K gaming has caused the high-end gaming market to become more niche than in the past. If you stick to 1440P or Ultra-wide, you're fine with a mid-tier gaming rig in most games at 1440P. Its the step up to 4K and especially 4K 120hz that makes the price and frequency...

Not experiencing the GPU downclocking here. If your on a AMD motherboard, update the chipset drivers. Before I updated I was getting stuttering too, now its smooth.

I was getting major stuttering, solved it by updating my amd chipset drivers. running at 4k max settings (RT on, DLSS3 On). only in white orchard but im hitting 95+fps. game looks gorgeous!

Picked up a Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature 32gb. On sale for $129, down from $189. Been meaning to pick up an ereader for a while now.

Playing Triangle Strategy on mine, its perfect for the deck.

played thru 2 chapters - max settings, dlss quality at 4k on my 3090 (undervolted to 1800mhz) - 60 - 80fps, think my 5800x3d helped

Well - Being an owner of the EVGA 3090 FTW3 Ultra rev 0.1 (The infamous one with New Worlds issues) - I've removed the 500w BIOS and gone back to stock with default power limit. I think this seals the deal for me switching to AMD for my next card.

Enjoy the 2 year warranty.

Fanatical has the collection (and individual games on sale) https://www.fanatical.com/en/game/the-judgment-collection?aff_track=CJ&CJEVENT=1e8aafa0348f11ed839200490a82b832&utm_source=CJ&cj_pid=7770860&cj_aid=13212017

Started a new playthrough now that 1.6 is out. Beat the game at launch with very few bugs. Playing this time with a melee centric build. Forgot how taxing this game is at 4K. All settings down to high from ultra, ray tracing at medium. dlss perfromance - 50 - 65fps on a 3090. Tempted to drop Ray...

9700 Pro is the best card of all time in my books. Slightly skewed for me as I upgraded from a GeForce 2 GTS to the 9700 Pro so it was a mind-blowing experience. It'd be interesting to see a similar article but with a AMD/ATI focus. Top cards on the ATI/AMD side for me would be: Radeon 9700...

"Nvidia’s flagship GeForce4 Ti 4600 at 100mm had no hope of beating even the midrange 9700 Pro" Wtf? Since when was the 9700 Pro midrange? Sure it got replaced by the 9800 Pro the following year, but it was definitely a high end card.

Was waiting for someone to post actual gameplay thoughts and not just graphics. Looks like I'm waiting for a deep sale on this one. Suspected it was all graphics and not a good story with copy/paste side content.

Sat down and played thru Vanishing of Ethan Carter last night. Never played it before, I'd say its a perfect game for the Steam Deck. It does have random FPS drops later in the game but for the most part its 50+fps the entire time. My first game beaten on the deck (5 hours to beat in one...

Yeah, the difficulty ramps up towards the end. Last boss was a challenge.
